GRANDMA NEVER LET
HER HAIR GET GRAY
She Kept Her Locks Dark and
Glossy, with Sage Tea
and Sulphur.

When you darken your hair with Sage
Tea and Sulphur, no one can tell, be-
cause it's done so naturally, so evenly.
Preparing this mixture, though, at home
is mussy and troublesome. For so cents
you can buy at any drug store the ready
to-use preparation, improved by the addi-
ton of other ingredients, called ''Wyeth's
Sage and Sulphur Compound" You just
dampen sponge or soft brush with it
and draw this through your hair, taking
one small strand at time. By morning
all gray hair disappears, and, after en-
other application or two, your hair be-
comes beautifully darkened, glossy and
luxuriant.
Gray, faded hair, though no disgrace,
is sign of old age, and as we all de-
sire youthful and attractive appear
ance, get busy at once with Wyeth's Sage
and Sulphur Compound and look years
younger. This ready-to-use preparation
is delightful toilet requisite and not q
medicine 1t is not intended for the cure,
mitigation or prevention OF disease.

alkaline soil, and seldom gives trou-
BILE in acid soils. 1t, therefore, is
increased by lining and by fresh sta
BILE manure, wood ashes, and alkaline
fertilizers, such as nitrate of soda
and ground bone, while acid phos-
plate and sulphate of ammonia tend
to diminish scab.
Rhizoctonia occurs to some extent
in nearly all soils, but appears to
attack potatoes most when the con-
ditions are unfavorable to the best
development of the potato plant.
Bring the land to an ideal state OF
filth to minimize loss from Rhizoc-
tonia.
PoWdery scab is worst on cold,
wet. or poorly drained soils. Black
leg, on the other hand, is carried
by infective seed No potatoes
showing a deep brown discoloration
at the stem end should be planted.
Sulphur tends to prevent common
scab. 1t is not substitute for
corrosive sublimate or formaldehyde,
but is a good drier for cut seed. APP
piled to scab-infected soils at the
rate of 500 pounds per acre, it re-
duces the scab, but such heavy APP
plications can not generally be rec
commended as profitable. Preliminary
experimental trials are advised.
How to Disinfect Seed
1t is considered better to treat
potatoes before they are cut into
seed, especially if the cut seed is to
be very small. Put into the solu-
ton all the potatoes it will cover
and keep the batch covered by the
solution for the period named under
the treatment being used.

hyde to 80 gallons Of water. The
solution can be used repeatedly The
gas treatment is no longer recon-
mended.
The corrosive-sublimate treatment
Is more effective than formaldehyde
particularly against Rhizoctonia, OF
russell scab, and powdery scab.
Corrosive sublimate is used at the
rate of 1-1,000 for one and one-half
to two hours. Dissolve 2 ounces of
the salt in hot water and dilute to
Is gallons. This is a deadly poison.
Use with great care. 1t must be

household or left where animals can
reach it.
In using the corrosive sublimate
dip, it has been found that the So
luton becomes weaker each time it
is used. The degree to which the
disinfectant is taken out of the solu-
ton varies according to the amount
of dirt on the potatoes, the charac-
ter of the water, and the kind of
container For practical purposes it
will be sufficient to add l ounce of
dissolved corrosive sublimate to each
80 gallons of solution after each
batch Of potatoes has been treat
ed. When this has been done four
times throw away the old solution
and prepare new solution.
To treat large quantities of pota-
toes set several barrels on a slight
ly elevated platform. Fit a plug in
a hole in the bottom Of each barrel,
fill with potatoes, cover with solu-
ton, let stand two hours, draw Off
solution, and pour into another bar
rel. Increase the number of barrels
in proportion to the quantity to be
treated. Another method is to use a
large wooden vat or trough, into
which the potatoes in sacks are low
cred by a rope and pulley and later
hauled out, drained, and dried on
Slated racks.
Seed potatoes may be treated sew
eral weeks before planting, provided
they are not re-infected by storing
in old containers or storage bins.
Sprouted potatoes are injured by
treatment, but will throw out new
sprouts In general. however, pota
toes will not be injured by following
the above directions. Many growers
believe termination is improved by
treatment.

GERMANS ARE S0LiCITOUS
Afraid French Will Burn Laon Ca
fhedraI

Copenhagen, April 25.-Anxiety for
the safety Of the famous Cathedral Of
Laon is expressed by German CORE
spondents who commenting on the
fact that French shells are now reach
ing sections of the city, point out that
the cathedral is now under repair and
is surrounded by scaffolding which a
single shell might set afire, as in the
case of the Cathedral of Rheims.
Should the German retreat pass be-
yond Laon the destruction Of the ca
thedral doubtless would be regretted
deeply on military grounds by the
Germans. Since their capture of the
city they have recognized the high
value of the cathedral tower as a
place of observation.

TREAT SEED POTATOES
Soaking in Disnfecting Solution
Tends to improve termination
and Lessons Danger
of Scab

The distinction of seed potatoes
by soaking in corrosive sublimate or
in formafdehyde is recommended by
the United States Department of
Agriculture as a measure that will
tend to improve the termination and
lessen the danger of scab.
Such treatment is, on the whole,
profitable, but has severaI limita-
tons which should be clearly recog-
nized to prevent disappointment.
The object of disinfecting seed po-
tatoes is to destroy the germs of
scab and other surface parasites
which might otherwise be planted
with the seed and infect the new
crop. Only surface infections are
reached by this method. 1t is only
partially effective against deep pits
of common scab Neither corrosive
sublimate nor formaldehyde, as ordi-
narlly used, will destroy silver scurf.
Either one will kill surface infec-
tons of blackleg, but neither will
reach the internal infections COM
mon in tubers from blackleg hills.
Neither Fusarium wilt nor late
blight infection in potato tubers can
be reached by any seed treatment,
nor can any of the nonparasitic dis
eases of potatoes, such as mosaic,
leaf roll, and curly dwarf, thus be
prevented. See Farmers Bulletin
544 for descriptions Of these
troubles.
Select Disease-Free Seed
Clearly, therefore, the most i'm
portant precaution against these dis
eases is to select clean, disease
free seed potatoes from healthy,
vigorous plants, as determined by
field inspection during the growing
season and at harvest. seed treat
ment should then be applied as an
additional precaution. 1t will not be
effective, however, if the soil where
the potatoes are to be planted is al
ready full of disease.
Soil Conditions and Potato Diseases
Soil conditions have an important
relation to potato tuber diseases,
and many of these are widely spread
throughout the country, and perhaps
native to some soils. Common scab

To Prevent Seed Potato Speculation.

prevent SEED Potato speculation.
Following a three-hour conference
between the governor, members of the
defense council and the large potato
dealers operating in the state, at the
executive office, it was announced that
the potato dealers would hold their
stock for another week. Governor
Phillip said in the meantime machinery
would be worked out under direction Of
Commissioner of Agriculture Norgord
for gaining control of the seed pota-
toes for distribution. 1t is understood
that the plan would be so arranged
that banks will take the orders for the
potatoes and place them with large
commission houses.
The potato men in conference said
there was no shortage of seed in that
section of the state which has always
raised a large potato crop. These men
are of the opinion that a sufficient
amount of seed is held in the localities
for the usual planting.

No Money for Veterans.
There will be no appropriation by
the legislature to send Wisconsin vet
Ierans to the VickSburg reunion, as
proposed by Senator Staudenmayer.
1t is learned from Washington that no
tents, 70 camp ground equipment for
the veterans can be spared now. They
are all demanded for use in war, and
as no accommodations can be had the
government advises that it is impru-
dent and unwise to have a vast gath
or of old soldiers at VicRsburg. 1t
was estimated that $4,000 would be
necessary to give Wisconsin veterans
