Use COcOanut Oil
for Washing Hair

If you want to keep your hair in
good condition, be careful what you
wash it with.
Most soaps and prepared shampoos
contain too much alkali. This dries
the scalp. makes the hair brittle. and
Is very harmful. Just plain mulsified
@cocoanut oil (Which Is pure and en-
trely greaseless) is much better than
the most expensive soap or anything
else you can use for shampooing. as
this can't possibly injure the hair.
Simply moisten your hair with water
and rub 1t in. One or two teaspoonfuls
will make an abundance of rich,
creamy lather. and cleanses the hair
and scalp thoroughly. The lather
rnses out easily. and removes every
particle of dust, dirt, dandruff and ex-
cessive OIL The hair dries quickly and
evenly. and it leaves it fine and silky.
bright, fluffy and easy to manage.
You can get mulsified cocoanut oil
at most any drug store. 1t is very
cheap, and a few ounces is enough to
last everyone In the family for months.

CAN EVERYTHING SAYS

WILL CUT MEAT BILL
Large Number of War Gar
dens Will Make Food
Preservation Necessary.

Raise all you can and can all you
raise" was the slogan carried by boys
and girls in n recent patriotic parade.
But according to Miss Ella Woods of
the home economies department OF the
university, saving vegetables and fruits
by canning Is not merely patriotic
duty. hut has many advantages in
times OF peace as well. Miss Woods
canning demonstration at the univer-
sity yesterday at 3 o'clock in the after
noon was the third Of the series Of
eight lectures on Food Conservation
and Preservation" being given at the
university summer session.
Prevents Food Waste.
Canning foods in the first place
prevents waste" said Miss Woods 1T
is claimed that 80 per cent Of the av-
erage garden and orchard products are
wasted each year. This year there are
approximately two million home gar
dcns. This makes the necessity of
food preservation self-evdent. Again.
In canning fruits. we provide for a
supply Of fruits when they are out of
season thus permitting a well selected
diet at all times. As to the patriotic
duty of canning fruits. we may assist
IN providing an adequate food supply
for the world by reducing the amount
Of meat and serial needed for the daily
meal and releasing It for general use"
Heat Always Necessary.
We must get the aim of canning
definitely in mind and that aim Is to
prevent decay and spelling. Since the
spores or reproductive organs Of
moulds yeasts and bacteria, the three
enemies OF food. nre so numerous It Is
easy for food to become contaminated
In order to destroy the more resistant
spores 1t Is necessary to have heat"
Miss Woods went into detail con-
corning the proper selection and prep
aration Of fruits and vegetables for
canning and demonstrated the canning
Of peas under steam pressure, telling
OF the method Of canning in the ordi-
nary home where large water con-
tainer. a rack and tight fitting cover
serve the purpose Of the more scien-
tific steam pressure cookers

SHIP MOSCOW BRICK
BY PARCELS POST
TRANSPORTATION COSTS MORE
THAN TWICE THAT OF
BRICK

Mayor Truitt, head of the Moscow
Fire Brick & Clay Products COM
pany, is highly amused over an order
for brick just received by the COM
pany. 1t is from a lumber company
at Elk City, Idaho, and is for 700 fire
brick. The peculiar part of the order
is that the brick are to be Grated and
shipped by mail, parcel post, at the
expense of the purchaser. Inquiry
at the postoffice led to the informa-
ton that it would be necessary to
pack the brick in 100 packages, seven
to the package, and that the postage
would be 54 cents on each package
or $54 on the 100 packages. This
postage is twice the original cost of
the brick and is a striking illustration
of the demand there is now for this
Moscow product.
