FEW FOLKS HAVE
GRAY HAIR NOW
Druggist Says Ladies Are Using
Recipe of Sage Tea ard
Sulphur.

Hair that loses its color and lus-
tre, or when it fades, turns gray,
dull and lifeless, is caused by lack
of sulphur in the hair. Our grand
mother made up a mixture of Saeg
Tea and Sulphur to keep her locks
dark and beautiful, and thousands
of women and men who value that
even color, that beautiful dark
shade of hair which is attractive,
use only this old-time recipe.
Nowadays we get this famous mix
ture improved by the addition of
other ingredients by asking at any
drug store for a bottle of "Wyeth's
Sage and Sulphur Compound" }"
which darkens the hair so naturally,
so evenly, tina tnobody can possibly
tell it has been applied. You just
dampen a sponge or sofe brush with
it and draw this through your hair,
taking one small strand at a time.
By morning the gray hair disap-
pears; but what delights the ladies
with Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur
Compound is that, besides beautiful
ly darkening the hair after a few
applications, it also brings back the
gloss and 'lustre and gives it an ap-
pearance of abundance.
Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur Com
pound is a delightful toilet requis.
ite to impart color and youthful
appearance to the hair, It is moi
intended for the cure, mitigation
or prevention of disease.-Adv.

SAN DIEGANS ENJOYING GRAND
EXCURSION TO FAMOUS VALLEY
Many of San Diegos Most Famous Business Men Are In
cuded in the Party Which Is Making Trip Over Valley
Today-Wll BeTendered aTypical Banquet this Evening
at the Barbara Worth HoteProminent Speakers There

Imperial Valley has been eternal
ly linked with the destinies of San
Diego by the San Diego-Imperial Val
ley Goodfellowship Excursion.
One hundred and fifty San Diego
business men, representing banking
and commercial interests with invest
ments Of many millions of dollars, are
in the Valley to lay the foundations
for vast inter-city traffic that will
be developed as result of the open
ing of the San Diego & Arizona rail-
road.
The delegation from the Harbor
City was met at Campo yesterday
noon by officials Of the Valley Cham
ber of Commerce, headed by Joseph
F. Seymour, Jr., chairman of the en-
tertainment committee, and escorted
to the headquarters at the Barbara
Worth hotel.
Every phase of San Diego's varied
commercial interests is represented
in the San Diego delegation-banks,
shipping interests, hotels, merchants
and newspapers-and is as represen-
tative throng as the Imperial Val
ley ever had the opportunity of en-
tertaif1hg.
Willet S. Dorland, president of the
Chamber of Commerce, and also Of
the Security Commercial and Savings
Bank of San Diego, outlined the linn
itless opportunities for both his home
city and the residents of the Valley
IN the interchange of business. Mr..
Dorland and his associates desire to
convince the Valley producers that
San Diego offers market and tide
water shipping port for the products
of this section that cannot be equaled
elsewhere.
They call attention to the accessi-
hility Of San Diego, and that through
there both perishable and non-perish-
able freight can be laid down in
Coast ports at lower cost than by
present direct all-rail service; that
San Diego itself can absorb many
carloads of livestock and produce
every day; that the Imperial Valley
is one of the worlds greatest COM
missaries, and that the port of San
Diego is the natural outlet for her
products.
AS evidence of the extensive plans
that they are laying for the antici-
pated heavy volume of traffic from
this section, is shown the fact that
they have had traffic expert at
work for months on tariff schedules
covering all commodities and produce

Many ProminentAgricultur
Specialists at Work Here

The presence in Imperial Valley of
many noted agricultural experts and
the anticipated visit of several more
of national reputation are giving this
section much publicity and at the
same time enables the ranchers to
have their problems solved.
H. w. Washburn, a specialist in
California farming, has arrived and
will begin the installation of cost sys-
TENS on over 100 ranches. The books
will be opened and the rancher in
structed as to entries. At the end
of the fiscal year Mr.. Washburn
will return and close the books. He
is being accompanied by Mr.. Hill of
the United States Department of Ag-
riculture, who will assist in the
work.
Professor w. B. Parker and f. C.
Houser, the latter an expert in poul-
try raising, are also here at this
time
w. w. Weir, an expert on drain
age and alkali, who was in charge
of the Kearney drainage work, is ex-
pected to arrive during the last week
of March.

oialists in the art Of canning, are ex-

SYSTEM
IS NEEDED LOCALLY

Sheriff C. M. Applestill has called
attention to the need of an identifi-
cation bureau at the county Jail, ow-
ing to the proximity of the border
and the resultant number of criminals
that are being arprehended here.
1t is said that there are more
wanted" men around Mexicali than
in any other section of the country.
Both OF the l. w. VS. captured by
Sheriff Applestill yesterday. charged
with robbery, are suspected of hav-
ing penitentiary records, but owing
to lack of Bertillion records it will
be difficult to prove.
The cost in installation and mainte-
nance would be nominal compared
with the benefits derived from it in
the way of additional protection to
the taxpayers. Many crooks that are
for misdemeanors have pen
records that would insure their re-
[ IN to prison for long terms.
The. new county Jail plans include a
provision for this vital adjunct of po-
lice work.

pected to be here for some time in
the near future.
H. E. Van Norman, president Of
the National Dairy Association, will
he here during the month of May.
All of these specialists come to
the Valley without cost to the ranch
ers. They are sent to counties were
farm bureaus have been established
and it is only due to tn eactivities
of the local farm bureau that such
eminent men have been secured.
The expense of the specialists is
borne by the United States Depart
ment of Agriculture and the Univer-
sity of California, the latter being
cne of the most widely known expon-
ents of agriculture in the United
States. Farm Adviser Paul I. Dough-
erty has other who will arrive to give
suggestions regarding better ranch
ing in the Valley.

CALLS FOR MORE
LIVESTOCK IN
CALIFORNIA

Well wishers of California have
tor years been calling for more hogs,
more beef, more mutton, more milk,
more everything along the livestock
line.
"They are needed to balance agri-
cultural interests in our fruit grow
ing sections; they are needed for their
direct wealth. bringing power; they
are needed because they make state
more independent"
And the livestock industry has re-
sponded to these appeals and has
grown and is growing, and seemingly
every effort has been made to induce
further growth, says the California
Cultivator.
Now, however, comes the board OF
supervisors of Los Angeles county
and puts a penalty on every hog. The
hog-at least in large numbers-must
rot be kept within mile of any lit
tie hamlet; he must be fed on ster-
:lized tables; must must pay fee
for a physician or manicurist to cal
and inspect his manner of livcing, and
if various regulations are not COM
LIED with his owner may pay a fine
of $500.
The board of supervisors of Los
Angeles county has perhaps given q
raying position to some politician, but
we believe it has exceeded it's rights,
at least from the standpoint of JUS
tice, in placing upon this branch of
the livestock industry such burden.
Inspection is made of our cattle, our
trees and plants and seeds, and the
county or state bears the expense.
The hog must pay his own way and
hire a politician. We believe there
should be reasonable regulation of
all these matters, and We believe the
expense should be placed where the
horticultural law placs it, and not
upon the man who is endeavoring to
respond to the call of all of us by
producing more and better livestock.
Such law, or ordinance, rather, may
stick when the courts take turn
at it, but we hope not. The swine
breeders are so busy producing bet
ter hogs that they have no time so
such a test.

CRIMINAL COURT
OPENS AGAIN
ON MONDAY

Criminal court will open on Mon
day with two cases set, but it is bare
ly possible that more than one will
be completed, as interpreters are re-
quired in both instances.
Will Thomas, charged with burglary
in Imperial, is first on the docket.
j. P. Roa and Jose Rodriguez,
charged with stealing horse, bug
gy and harness from a Japanese
rancher near Brawley, also appears
en- the calendar. In the latter case
Spanish and japanese interpreters will
be necessary.
