SO much more than ever dreamed OF
before.
In years past there always has been
plenty OF milk in Washington during
the summer months, and a reduction
in the price. This summer there has
existed a real shortage since late
June.
Besides the estimated increase OF IS
600 in Washington's population since
last spring. there will be 10000 men
encamped at Admiral. Nd, by october.
who must be supplied with milk.
This increased demand and the mark
ed decrease In production makes the
situation alarming. dealers say.
Farmers are now receiving from 81
to % cents q gallon net for their
milk. 1t Is estimated that when the
pastures fail in late September the
cost OF production will be not less
than 80 cents q gallon. Add to this
from to cents q gallon freight
and even the most modest proft for
the farmer. and n price of IS cents
a gallon for milk delivered in WASH
InEton appears to be the minimum
to be hoped for.
Not only have farmers costs
Increased, but the expenses of the
dealers also have gone up almost in
proportion they say.

MOVIE ACTRESSES AND
THEIR HAIR

Did it ever occur to you that every
movie actress you have seen has
lovely hair, while the most popular
count their curls as their chief
beauty? In fact, many are leading
ladies' just because Of their attractive
locks. Inquiry among them discloses
the fact that they bring out all the
natural beauty of their hair by careful
shampooing, not with any soap or
makeshift. but with simple mixture
by putting a teaspoonful of canthrox
(Which they get from the druggist
in a cup of hot water and applying
this instead of soap. This full cup
of shampoo liquid is enough so it is
easy to apply it to all the hair instead
of just the top of the head. After
its use the hair dries rapidly with uni
form color. Dandruff, excess oil and
dirt are dissolved and entirely disap-
pear. The hair is so fluffy that it
looks much heavier than it is, while
its lustre and softness is delightful.
