CROWDER ISSUES

Arizona republican., 1918-10-27

Within ten minutes after an applica- tion of Danderine you can not find a single trace of danrduff or falling hair and your scalp will not itch but what will please you most will be after a few weeks use, when you see new hair, fine and downy at first-yes-but really new hair-growfng all over the scalp.
 A little Danderine immediately doubles the beauty of your hair. No difference how dull, faded, brittle and scraggy, just moisten cloth with Dan derine and carefully draw it through your hair, taking one small strand at a time. The effect is amazing-your hair will be light, fluffy and wavy, and have an appearance of abundance; an in- comparable lustre, softness and luxur lance.
 Get a small bottle of Knowlton's Danderine for a few cents at any drug store or toilet counter, and prove that your hair is as pretty and soft as any that it has been neglected or injured by careless treatment-that's all-you
 surely can have beautiful hair and
 lots of it if you will just try a little ! Danderine.

SLAYDEN GOT LETTER
 TOO AND QUIT RACE

Congressman Julius Kahn of San Francisco, ranking member of the house committee on military affairs and the great military leader of the house of representatives and father of the draft law, stopped in Flagstaff Friday enroute to his home from Washington.
 Congressman Kahn was shown a copy of President Wilson's telegram to George Babbitt commenting the loyalty of Carl Hayden, candidate for reelection to Congress and just com missioned a major in the army, when his defeat seemed imminent
 A broad smile illuminated Congress- man Kahn's face when he read the telegram purported to have been sent to Rabbit. He said:
 Tt may be presumptious for me. a mere congressman, to question the statement of the president of the United States, but. as I recall. the record shows that Hayden voted ex- actly the same as Congressman Slay- den of Texas. I would suggest that you ask Congressman Slayden what kind of letter he received from the presi- dent which caused him to withdraw | from the congressional race in his dis l trict down in Texas"

COMP TON' ELECTION ID COMMISSION |S
 SURE, SAY FRIENDS

J. G. Compton, republican candidate for the state corporation commission, was in the city yesterday. MT. Comp ton has lately been confined to his home by illness and with that and his eXacting duties as d member of the district exemption board he has had but little opportunity to canvass the state in behalf Of his candidacy, but his friends have not been inactive, and they feel confident of his election. They give assurances that he will come out of Pima county with a tremendous ma jority such as was never cast there for any candidate.
 Mir. Compton never before has sought any public office. He has been a resi- dent of Tucson for seventeen years, all that time in the employ of the South ern Pacific in which he rose from the l position of brakeman to conductor. He is a native of Ohio where he re- sided on a farm until he was 20 years 1 of age Then he entered the service | of the L. s. Express company at 1 Zanesville and remained there for nine years, until coming to Arizona. Thus l he has had but two paying jobs since 1 he left the farm.
 1 MT. Compton is married and has two 1 children. He has been active in or ! ganized labor and is vice chairman of l the legislative committee of the Order of Railway Conductors. His fairness in labor matters. though, is such as comments him both to employers and employees.
 His work on the exemption board has brought commendation to him
 from both the government and the employers of labor, both admitting that in all his rulings he has been just. MT Compton is man of pleasing appear
 ance and at once invites the confi-
 denGe of those he meets. From his
 labors he has acquired. a competency
 and has invested his savings in Tue son property.

complaints and weaknesses which are
so common to women, should take the

President Wilson has spoken

nation must not be neglected-even
the fact that we are engaged in a

The Corn Crop.

The abnormally high August tenn
peratures continued a part of last
week, and while the rainfall for the
week was above normal, the hot
winds did considerable further dam
age to the corn crop in the western
and southwestern part OF the corn
belt. 1t has been an unusual season,
in that the drouth and high tempera-
lures came later than in previous
years. This makes it somewhat
more difficult to measure the effect
on the corn crop.
Taking everything into considera-
ton up to and including August
/ It'll, we estimate that the average
yield this year will be about ZIG
bushels, with a total corn yield for
the country of 2,735, 100000 bush
els. This may seem low to some
who have not carefully examined
the fields in the more severely dam
aged section, and to those in the
northern part of the corn belt, which
has benefited by seasonable rains,
and consequently has actually bene-
fitted from the high temperatures
which have bee so disastrous to
the south and southwest. The rain
fall for the corn belt states last week
was 1.41 inches, or about double the
normal. The temperature was 81
degrees, which is very high, the
normal being "a degrees.
The rain the latter part OF the
week was godsend. 1t will start
the pastures again, and will help
the corn that was not completely
killed, especially the later corn
