TODAY'S AID TO BEAUTY

Hair is by far the most CON
spicuouS thing about us, and is
probably the most easily dam
aged by bad or careless treat
mcnt. If VIC are very careful in
hair washing, we will have virtual
ly no hair troubles. An especially
fine shampoo for this weather, ono
that brings out all the natural
beauty OF the hair, that dissolvcs
and entirely removes all dandruff,
excess oil and dirt, can easily be
used at trifling expense by simply
dissolving a tcaspoonful of Can
throx (Which you. can get at any
druggist's) in a cup of hot water.
TINS makes a full cup of shampoo
'iquid-cnough so it is easy to
apply it to all the hair instead
Of just the top of the head. This
chemically dissolves all impurities
and creates a soothing, cooling
lather. Rinsing leaves the scalp
spotlessly clean, soft and plant,
while the hair takes on the glossy
richness of natural color, also
fluffincss which makes it seem
much heavier than it is. After

IMPERIAL IS BEST
POULTRY SECTION
IN CALIFORNIA
Expert Hauser States
That This Section "PGts Ii All
Over" Petaluma and Other Highly
TOuted Poultry Centers for Real
Production.

Imperial valley is the best place for
profitaole poultry and egg production
of all California.
This is the declaration of Profess
sor Hauser, poultry specialist of the
University of California, who travels
from one end of the state to another,
advising farmers on egg and poultry
production. And he ought to know.
The reasons fer the supremacy of
Imperial valley in this line of produc-
tion are:
Imperial farmers can raise chicken
feed very cheaply.
In Imperial, there is so much good
range for the chickens that it is often
unnecessary to buy red.
Here, there are fewer chicken dis
eoses and pests than in any other sec.
ton of the state because of the warm
sun and dry atmosphere.
