IF HAIR IS TURNING
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 brew
ing mixture of Sage Tea and Sui
phur. Your hair is your charm. 1t
makes or mars the face. When II
fades, turns gray or streaked, just an
application or two of Sage and Sui
phur enhances Its appearance hun
dredfold
Don't bother to prepare the mix
ture; you can get this famous old re-
Cipe improved by the addition of other
ingredients 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 II
darkens SO naturally and evenly that
nobody can tell 1t has been applied,
You simply dampen a sponge or soft
brush with 1t and draw this through
the hair, taking one small strand at
q time; by morning the gray hair has
disappeared, and after another appli.
cation 1t becomes beautifully dark and
appears glossy and lustrous. This
ready'to-use preparation is a delight
full toilet requisite for those who de-
sire dark hair and youthful appear
ance. 1t is not intended for the cure
mitigation or prevention Of disease

nibble at them little. At the end of
the third week the substitution of the
skim milk will be complete. By slow
changes milk can be increased there
after until 20 pounds or 21a gallons a
day are fed; this amount will be found
sufficient when fed with the grain and
hay. If skim milk is plentiful more
may be fed, but the added amount will
give proportionately better results.
Cornmeal, bran, and linseed oil meal,
mixed in the proportions of three, two,
and one, make an excellent grain mix
ture. This grain when fed with plenty
of fine clover or alfalfa hay makes an
ideal supplement to skim milk in bal
ancing the ration. Calves should be
allowed all the grain that they will
eat until they consume three pounds a
day; from this point the feeder should
use his Judgment as to whether an in
crease is justified.
The calf, from the time 1t is two
weeks of age, should always have
clean, sunny quarters, abundance of
exercise, and access to plenty of clean,
pure water.
The general practice is to feed calves
skim milk for from two to six months.
In the latter case, with fall calves the
time of final weaving from milk comes
in the spring, when pastures are ready.
under this system the calves usually
make excellent growth during the en-
tire period without any break in gains.
The Athena press. [volume] (Athena, Umatilla County, Or.) 18??-1942, 1918-06-14

pounds Of gain. The most expensive
gains were made on lot three (the
handled lot), where 3691 pounds of
mixed feeds were required to produce
100 pounds of gain. The gains were
very profitable in all lots but shelled
corn and tankage self-fed produced
the best results.
These tests are borne out by results
obtained at number of state expert
ment stations. In all nearly 900 pigs
have been used in tests at these sta
tions. and the results show clearly that
more rapid gains are obtained with
the self-feeder than by the best hand
feeding methods, partly owing to the
larger daily consumption Of feed per
head, 8 pounds compared to SAT
pounds, and partly owing to the more
efficient use Of grain feed. These tests
show that the average daily gain per
head by the handled method was 1.23
pounds, and by the self-fed method
1.92 pounds. The average amount of
feed per 100 pounds of gain was 445
pounds by the handled method, and
AIT pounds by the self-fed methods.

PROTEIN ESSENTIAL TO sow
Strength and Vigor at Farrowing
Time Necessary for Young Animals
to Do Their Best

prepared by the United States Depart
ment of Agriculture)
Every hog grower knows that If he
is going to have pigs that will do
their best from the start they must
necessarily be strong and vigorous at
farrowing time. Proper care of the
brood sow usually insures such pigs
and one essential included in this
proper care is feeding the brood SOW
a ration containing a good percentage
of protein.
Protein feeds in the form of shorts,
tankage, oil meal, or alfalfa hay should
be supplied. Self-feeders can be used
for these feeds, and 1t is quite sue
cessful to grind the alfalfa hay. Sows
will eat a larger percentage of alfalfa
hay fed in the ground form than
when fed in racks unground. This
alfalfa is generally cheaper on the
corn-belt farms than any of the other
protein feeds and is a good balance
to the corn ration.
