Cocoanut Oil Makes
A Splendid Shampoo

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-
tirely 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 it in. One or two tea
spoonfuls 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. The hair dries quickly
and evenly, and it leaves it fine and
silky, bright, fluffy and easy to man
age.
You can get muIsified cocoanut
oil at most any drug store. 1t is very
cheap, and few ounces is enough to
last everyone in the family for
months.-Advertisement.

With the American Army in
France, Nov. ia score of Ameri-
cans were killed and many wounded,
yesterday, on that section of the west
ern front held by the Americans, by
shell fire from German batteries
which concentrated fire upon the
trenches in an effort to exterminate
them. The Americans replied with
big guns and accurate fire, and it is
believed they inflicted greater pun
ishment on their foes than they them-
selves suffered.
One shell dropped by the Germans
in the trench killed several Americans
and wounded many.
The French commander, who was
witness to the artillery duel, told
the American officers that the marks
manship of the American artillerymen
compared most favorably with that of
troops who have been at war for
years. The only complaint he had to
make was that the batteries did not
fire as rapidly as they might, but
they are improving daily.

The news received by the turkey

Professor Crocheron, turkey expert,
who visited this section in the inter.

Messrs. Bowman and Skinner, Pro-

morning that he had received word
from his correspondent in Los Ange-

were to be shipped. Mr. Rath is of
the opinion that it will be difficult to
handle the turkey output this year
because of the shortage Of pickers,
especially the experienced ones.
1T will require 125 pickers, pin
ners and roughers to handle the tur-
key crop of the Valley" he said.
Where are we to get these workers?
The time given us to organize crews
Of pickers is altogether too short. We
are willing to cooperate with the gov

but the shortage of labor in the val

in this regard"
