FEDERAl.STATE AID ROAD.

Sale among them, but in no case was
an adjournment forced by opponents
OF the proposition. In a number of
cases more information was needed,

fected two weeks before the Boards

be expected that all would have a
clear understanding of the matter
The Federal-State aid road propo-
sition provides that the federal gov.

money for the construction of this
road. eighty per cent. of which must
be a post road The distribution is
made thru the agricultural depart.

The state provides one-third of the
cost of this road. The state highway
department says the road must be of
brick. concrete or bituminous maca-
dam as conditions warrant The road
must be Is feet wide and will be
maintained by the state when com
pleted The counties provide the re-
naming third OF the cost, either thru

Cocoanut Oil Fine
For Washing Hair

II 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 mulsitied cocoanut
oil (Which is pure and entirely grease
less). is much better than the most ex-
pensiye soap or anything else you can
use for shampooing, rs this can't pos
sibly iniure the hair. .
Simply moisten your hair with water
and rub it in. One or two teaspoonfuls
will make an abundance Of rich, creamy
lather. and cleanses the hair and scalp
thoroughly The lather rinses out easily,
and removes every particle OF dust, dirt.
dandruff and excessive oil. Tie hair
dries quickly and evenly, and it leaves it
fine and silky, bright, fluffy and easy to
manage. 4
You can get mulsiied cocoanut oil at
most any drug store. 1t is very cheap,
and 4 few ounces is enough to last
everyone in the family for months.

llBEllNG LINCOLN,

a citizen Of Vincennes Ind. has
been arrested on grand jury indict.
ment charging him with "libeling the
memory of Abraham Lincoln The
ofense consisted in the publication
of a historical pamphlet in which the
author, DR.. Wilhelm r. Won Knappe, is
said to have made these assertions.
That Lincolns grandfather was
traitor during the Revolutionary War.
That Lincoln himself was traitor
to his country during the Mexican
War.
That Lincoln was guilty of driving
the South out of the Union.
That Wendell Phillips wrote Lin.
coins celebrated replies to Douglas.
That I.incolns mother had negro
blood in her veins, and was an ex-
chattel.
That Lincoln drove the South out
Of the Union is patiently untrue.
II Lincon's mother was negress
and a freed slave IT is strange that
the fast waited for Or. Won Knappe to
drag 1t forth. Lincoln in his lifetime
never lacked enemies who would have
taken pleasur in such u revelation.
That Phillips wrote any Of Iincon's
speeches is not a lighting question
Most of us, though, are convinced that
Lincoln was quite capable of prepar.
ing his own speeches The world has
pronounced him a greater master OF
oratory than Phillips.
Possibly Lincolns grandfather was
Tory during the Revolution, But it
should be blamed for that. II may be.
too, that Lincoln was opposed to the
Mexican War II so, he had plenty OF
good company. 1t was not very popu.
lar war, and it has often been called
by historians and statesmen the one
unrighteous war in which the United
States ever engaged
But why 90 to law over this? Is II
really possible to commit crime by
libeling the memory of a man long
dead? Is there law justifyng such
procedure? II SO, it's dangerous and
unwise law. Such cases should be
tried only Ia the court Of public opin-
ion.
There is possibly some Interior pur.
pose back Of this indictment. But II
the real aim Of the offensive pamphlet
wasEto Justify those who are opposing
the present war. why isn't the writer
proceeded against for sedltlon?

Of an art, it is long. I do not mean
the ascent by stepladder There are
those who climb mountains by rail-

who require caddies to tee their golf

the game toward them. There are also
those who reach their uppers on car
peted steps.
Yet the heroic breed is not extinct.
Luxury has not yet completely sapped

made of Steiner stuff. We climb un-
assisted and alone
We are off. Quickly we assume po-

PROFITS FROM FERTILIZER

Efficiency in using fertilizer on
grass, that is, in getting greatest re-
turns for the fertilizer applied, de-
ponds very largely upon the following
points:
A Good Sod.-It is useless to fer
tilize weeds, and nearly useless to fer
tilize those lOwgrOwing grasses June
grass, sweet vernal, etc. which some
times drive out timothy and red top.
1t is more profitable to fertiliZe a pro-
ductive moving than one which has
run out" 1t is usually more profit
able to break up and re-seed a weedy
meadow than to bring it back by fer
tilizing, although the latter can be
done, and often profitably.
Good Drainage.-Grassesa and clovers
do better on well-drained than on q
wet land. Sedges and other water
loving plants take possession on wet
soils, and it seldom pays to fertilize
these. However, while the farmer is
finding capital for necessary improve
ments, these wet-land plants can be
kept out Of the wet meadow by feed
ing the grass which is already there,
and this again at profit.
Sweet SoiI.-Timothy always does
better on q sweet soil than on a sour
soil, and gives greater returns for the
fertilizer applied. Lime, however,
should be applied before seeding, or on
other crops in the rotation. If used
as a top dressing on grass land it is
slow acting and relatively expensive.
Early AppIication.-The best time to
apply top dressing is just when the
grass turns green in the early spring.
1t is then that the soil is cold and the
plantfOod in the soil raw and unavail-
able. A good start at this time may
often win the battle. Three hundred
pounds applied early is better than
four hundred pounds of fertilizer ap-
piled late. The result of application
fertilizer is washed into the soil. The
color Of the grass changes. The sick
ly yellowish-green color is replaced by
a deep, dark, thrifty green. Growth
starts. Root growth is stimulated.
The plant can use more of the food in
the soil than before. Early application
leads to highest efficiency.
Even Spreadng.-From 200 to 400
pounds per acre is the usual applica
ton Of top-dressing fertilizer. This
small amount must be evenly spread.
Broadcasting by hand is perfectly pos
sible. 1t is more expensive and not as
efficient as machine distribution.
