Alkali Makes Soap
Bad For Washing Hair

Most soaps and prepared shampoos
contain too much alkaH which is very
Injurious, as 1t dries the scalp and
makes the hair brittle.
The best thing to use is just plain
mulsifled cocoanut oil, for this is pure
and entirely greaseless. It's very cheap,
anything else all to pieces. You can
get this at any drug store, and a few
ounces will last the whole family for
months.
Simply moisten the hair with water
and rub it in, about teaspoonful is all
that is required. 1t makes an abund-
ance of rich. creamy lather, cleanses
thoroughly. and rinses out easily. The
hair dries quickly and evenly, and is
soft, fresh looking, bright, fluffy, wavy
and easy to handle. Besides, 1t loosens
and takes out every particle of dust.
dirt and dandruf.

Isham Hamilton and Frank Porter

Porter and Mike Smith are cleaning
out the old Denver City and expect to
do considerable work on that property.

depth. The vein had just been cut,
SO that there is reason to believe
drifting will open mine here.

RADIO -Yule Marble Co. is tagging we
learn that there is good prospect that
the Crystal River Marble Company,
now known as the Colorado Marble
Co. will start up work again soon.
For several years this company has
done good business but they have a
fine body of pure white marble and
a good equipment of machinery.
Pitkin Miner: 1t begins to look as
though another graphite mine in an
entirely new part of the district will
be made soon. One day this week
A. H. Conroy gave US quite chunk
of the black mineral which he had
taken from a recently located pro-
perty up Slaughter House" gulch a
couple Of miles, being almost due
south Of Pitiein. 1t is not a high
grade. but It is yet near the surface.
Should the mineral prove a good

We have filed on 5,l20 acres OF oil
land in the oil area of Fremont Coun-
ty, Wyoming. and have decided to try
drilling a well. II is our plan to sell
5000 shares of stock at $1,000 per
share. using the proceeds from this
sale to drill to a depth OF at least
$500 feet. unless oil is struck at .
shalIower depth.
Our company has been organized,
and the officers and directors are as
follows:
+. II. Mcdowell. President.
S. J. Miller. Treasurer.
Clifford II. Stone. Secretary.
ID. +. Fuller and ID. SchOneing, Di-
rectOrs.
Within four miles to the north and
the same distance to the south, oil
springs seep out in the foot hills. 1t
looks, from this. as though our chance
TO strike oil is as good as that Of any
concern that has or is drilling for oil.
and there is no reason why we should
not stand a good show TO pull out
in a few months the owners of a well
of gold dollars. Your chance to get in
on this is good right now. At least,
you will know that the money you in
vested was spent in an honest try for
oil. Look into this proposition.

RAILWAY SERVICE
DEM0RAL|zED IN
TEUToN NATIONS
Food Problems Increased by
Lack Of Efficiency,

NEW YORK, May 25.-fBy a Staff
Correspondent Of the Associated Press
inSt returned from Vienna Central
Europe's food problems during reoen,
months have been adversely influenced
by the fact that slowly the railroads
are losing their efficiency and are no
longer able to do their share in the dis
tribution OF these necessities. The war
has made heavy demands upon the Inns
and It has been impossible TO give
trackage and rolling stock the care they
require.
Roads Neglected for Two Years.
| For almost two years now the rail
roads have been neglected This. and
the heavy traffic over many Of the 'prin-
cipal lines due to the war. has made
the railroad system a mere shadow OF
what II was formerly. Ballasting has
been very indifferentiy done by old
men, boys. women and prisoners Of
war, with the result that the wear an
the ties has been unusually severe, a
condition which in It's turn has caused
rapid deterioration OF the rails and
rolling stock
Lack of skilled labor has prevented
the state and private railroads from
keeping the rolling stock in good repair
This compelled essening in the speed
OF trains. A reduction OF carrying ca
: pacity OF the roads resulted from this.
| Locomotives especially are in poor con-
dition In their case neglect was add
/ cd TO more and heavier service.
II is very doubtful whether in CEN
sal Europe it will be possible today
to find an engine capable OF performing
a service within 20 percent OF its for
mer efficiency. This is especially no
tioeable in cold weather when the steam
issuing from a hundred leaking Joints
illustrates what percent OF power is de-
rived from the coal burned
Wreck Every Week.
Hardly a week passes without some
wreck Most OF these occur to ireigh,
trains since the sweeping reductions
in the speed OF passenger trains were
made last fall. The fact tina, the line,

increases the difficulty OF the traffic
situation. Last winter thousands o
tons OF potatoes and other vegetables
were ruined in this manner, trains hay
ing to be sidetracked for days in order
20 clear lines of wrecks and then per
NIT delayed military transports to pass
Many OF the lines must be entirely re
laid with ties and rails before a nor
NAL traffic can be conducted over them
While the war lasts this work can
not he done and with each day the de
probation increases in almost geomet
! real proportions The yards Of mo,
railroad centers are eloeged with roll
ing stock which is no longer service
able. Should the war last another tw,
