says:
1T took one man and boy three
days to double disk, drill. and harrow
fthe ground was really narrowed twice
By the tapping OF the drag a 4o-acre
field. This WAS at a cost Of $3.50 per
day OF 10 hours for kerosene and cyl

for the power. 1t took little less than
four days for the man to pillow the
field, working from sun-up to sun
down at an average cost of s4.1O per
day for the power. This makes a total
cost Of $500 for the power to prepare
the seed bed and put in 40 acres Of

u. S. LAND of Cotton"
Uses Are Multiplying

The United States Is the land of
cotton" Nowhere else in the world is
cotton grown in such abundance, and
put to such Il variety of uses. The
fiber is made into cloth; the oil from
the seeds Is used as cheap substitute
for olive oil and as basis for lard,
and now the seeds themselves are be-
ing ground into flour and used for food
purposes. Gingersnaps and jumbles
are made from it, and 1t is mixed with
finely chopped meat and tied in sau-
sage links. To make the cottonseed
sausage. three pounds OF sausage meat
Is mixed with one pound of cottonseed
flour. This flour Is said to contain as
much nutrition as the meat which it
takes the place Of. and to effect saw
ing of eight cents a pound on the
sausage.--Popular Science Monthly.

Astrologers read this as q day of
unusual menace from the stars. Mer-
curry. Mars. Venus. Saturn and Nep-
tune are all in evil aspect.
During this sway It is wise to
conduct all affairs with the greatest
caution. Tine rule Is supposed to
cause depression. uncertainty and
bad judgment.
1t is not an auspicious time for
any negotiations that end in signed
agreements. While the rule prevails
letters are hazardous.
Treachery is supposed to be en-
couraged when the stars are posit-
ed as they are today. The loss or
theft OF most important documents
is indicated by the stars.
Persistently the seers warn Of
danger to the government through
Vaccinations of women as well as
men in positions of trust.
Soldiers should safeguard their
nerves while the configuration has
full government, astrologers declare.
as they are not likely to be at their
best in event of supreme dangers.
Women are not well directed to-
day. Whether in business or love
affairs they should doubt their judg-
ment. 1t Is a most threatening time
for any initiative whether in work
or romance.
Astrologers continue to warn girls
against the danger OF war service
that is not efficient. The need OF
sacrifice and supreme effort Is urged
Comparisons between American
girls and American boys prove that
equality OF service does not appear
to prevail. the seers declare.
Occultists agree that tho impera-
tive demand now is for productive
ness in all lines OF activity, espe-
cially in the chief essentials of
food, clothing and munitions.
Next month may be a time Of dis
cussions and dissensions where
questions of state, religion and poll
tics are involved.
Persons whose birthdate II is have

Best Way to Wash the Hair

We find you can bring out the
beauty of your hair to its very best
advantage by washing It with Cam
throx. 1t makes a very simple, in

the hair and scalp thoroughly of all
the dandruff, dirt and excess oil,
leaving a wonderfully clean, whole

find that the hair dries quickly and
evenly. is never streaked. in an
pearance and is always bright, soft
and fluffy. SO fuffy, in fact, that IL
looks more abundant than IL is.
and so soft that arranging It be-
comes a pleasure. Just use a tea
spoonful of Canthrox. which you
can get from any good druggists,
dissolve 1t In a cup of hot water;
this makes full cup of shampoo

1t to all the hair instead of Just the
