Don't Let Soap
Spoil Your Hair

When you wash your hair BE careful
what you use. Most soaps and prepared
shampoos contain too much alkali,
which is very injurious, as it dries the
scalp and makes the hair brittle.
The best thing to use is just plain
mulsified cocoanut oil, for this is pure
and entirely greaseless. It's very cheap,
and beats the most expensive soaps or
..YsthinS else all to pieces. You can
get this at any drug store, and few
ounces will last the whole family for
months.
Simply moisten the hair with water
and rub it in, about a teaspoonful is all
that lis required. 1t makes an abund-
ance of rich creamy lather. cleanse
thoroughly. and rinses out easily. The
aair dries quickly and evenly, and is
soft, fresh looking, bright. fluffy, wavy
and eaey to handle. Besides, it loosens
and takes out every particle of dust,
dirt Gnd dandruff.

OTHER PARTS OF STATE
Crop 40 q Whole Makes Little Ad-
sanesmsnt During Past week Be-
cause Of Unreasonable Temperatures
and Excessive Rains-lnereased Win
ter Wheat Acreage Being sown.
Special to Times Republican.


Des Moines, Sept. 1.-THE weekly
crop bulletin notes that another cool,
wet week has further delayed the ma
turity Of the belated corn crop The
average temperature was about five
degrees below the normal, and In
many localities showers were frequent
and the rainfall excessive. Frost oc-
CURED on the mornings of the 1otf
and 18th over the northern and eastern
parts of the state. kilograms Just re-
ceived from correspondents indicate
that the frost has seriously damaged
corn apd garden truck on low ground
in the northeast portions Of the state,
and that slight damage has occurred
in the northwest and southeast por-
lions. Over the southern and eastern
districts the showers were accompanied
by severe wind squalls. which blew
down and tangled corn badly, and by
hail, which also did considerable dam
age. Corn made fairly good progress
toward maturity in the western coun-
ties, where there was little or no rain
and considerable sunshine, but over
the greater part Of the state there has
been but little advancement. Some OF
the earliest planted corn is beginning
to dent, but the bulk Of the crop ID
only in the roasting ear stage, and
much of it Is still in the milk or dough
stage. An early killing frost would
seriously damage seed corn. The rains
however, were beneficial to pastures,
meadows, truck crops and late pota-
toes and softened the ground for fall
blowing, which is now being rushed.
some winter wheat has been sown, and
il the conditions are favorable there
will be q large increase in the acreage
of this crop.
Preliminary estimates made Sept. l
show the average yield Of winter wheat
per acre Is 10 bushels; spring wheat
81; oats. 80: barley, 81; rye. 20; tim
othy seed, bushels per acre. II these
estimates are maintained by final re-
ports, the state will produce about
100000 bushels Of winter wheat;
$4,000 Of spring wheat; 2S0.o0o.ooo OF
oats; 100000 Of barley. and 100000
bushels Of rye. The area OF timothy
cut for seed was only so per cent OF

Judge Naples presiding. in the case or the Missouri & North Arkansas railroad against the Kansas City Southern railroad. the jury having dellberated only about a half hour.
 The case grew out of the I1pton Ford (Mo.) wreck of August 3, 1914, when a motor car on the Missouri & North Arkansas was run into by a messenger train of the Kansas City Southern.
