The same proposition confronts the
consumer on wheat and flour. we
are a wheat and flour buying sec
ton. We do not begin to raise
wheat enough for our own bread in
Rusk county-Wheat is negligible
product. SO we become deeply in
terested in flour. The food board
has fixed the wheat price at mimi
mum of 1920 for NO. l hard, red
winter, durum, Northern, or No. l
hard white, at Chicago, and lower
amounts for other grades down to
No. 4 of each of these classificatlons
at $2.10. These are the prices the
government is paying, beginning last
Tuesday.
But what about flour? AS this is
written flour has gone down $1O0 a
barrel. 1t is not likely to go low
er, notwithstanding the fact that
the grain entering into the making
Of a barrel Of flour costs from 1910
to 1887 less than on the day the
price was fixed. The millers say it
will not be lower. Here again the
consumer fails to get the benefit and
he will fail until the government
arbitrarily takes away the excess
profit which the miller is grabbing
now. The miller is the only one to
profit. The wheat grower loses in
the wheat markets the consumer
loses because he pays the miller
$21O to $2.87 more for flour than the
difference in wheat before the price
was fixed and now. And the local
dealer gets the "cussing" from the
consumer for the exorbitant prices.
Both in flour and coal the con-
sumner is the person to be looked at
ter, for he is the one who has suf-
fered most. Price fixing fails if it
does not help him.

PRICE FIXING LITTLE
HELP TO THE CONSUMER

The vital difficulty with the coal
situation is that fixing prices at the
mine does not fix prices to the
consumer. Not many small dealers,
nor great many large ones buy
direct from the mine, but through
wholesale dealers and brokers. To
the mine price, add the brokers'
profit, the freight and the local deal
er's profit. The presidents price at
the mine is $3.50 a ton; freight is
$500, for Hooking Valley. 1t sells
in Ladysmith and other points in all
this section for $3.50. There is $500
a ton for brokers' profits, retail
dealers profits, expense of unloading
loss in handling and cost of deliv-
cry. The railroads seem to get the
really big end of it. Ladysmith city
coal paid for at $425 at the Illinois

If HAIR IS TURNING i"
GRAY, USE SAGE TEA
Here's Grandmother's Recipe to
Darken and Beautify
Faded Hair.

That beautiful, even shade of dark,
glossy hair can only be had by brewing
q mixture of Sage Tea and Sulphur.
Your hair is your charm. It makes or
mars the face. When it fades, turns
gray or streaked, just an application or
two of Sage and Sulphur enhances Its
appearance a hundredfold.
Don't bother to prepare the mixture;
you can get this famous old recipe i'm
proved by the addition of other ingredi-
ents for so cents a large bottle, all ready
for use 1t is called Wyeth's Sage and
Sulphur Compound. This can always be
depended upon to bring back the natural
color and lustre of your hair.
Everybody uses "Wyeth's" Sage and
Sulphur Compound now because it dark
ems so naturally and evenly that nobody
can tell it has been applied. You simply
G,,mpen a sponge or soft brush with it
;uld draw this through the hair, taking
one small strand at time; by morning
the gray hair has disappeared, and after
another application it becomes beauti-
fally dark and appears glossy and lus-
frous. This, ready-to-use preparation is
delightful toilet requisite for those who
dre's" dark hair and youthful appear
:n,~. t id net intended for the cure,
mit.sa,-ea or prevention OF disease.
