TO ENROLL FARM LABOR.
Defense Council Makes Provision

Des Moines, May 17.--Enrollment Of

States public service reserve.
Mr.. Metcalf will endeavor to secure
the name Of every man In the state

will be willing to devote a part Of his
time during the summer or the harvest
season should he be needed. The action
Is being taken In connection with a
nation wide survey.
At present there is no shortage OF
farm help in Iowa. The state federal
labor bureau has been able to secure
laborers for practically every demand.
On Monday the bureau placed ITS
people in positions.
County councils Of defense will be
called upon to assist in the enrolment
and they in turn will call upon the

Dandruffy Heads
Become Hairless

If you want plenty of thick, beautiful,
! glossy, silky hafir. do by all means get
!, rid of dandruff, for it will starve your
}hair and ruin it if you don't.
1t doesn't do much good to try to
brush or wash it out. The only sure
way to get rid of dandruff is to dissolve
it, then you destroy it entirely. To do
this, get about four ounces of ordinary
liquid arvon: apply it at night when
retiring: use enough to mosten the
scalp and rub it in gently with the fin
ger tips.
BY morning, most if not all, of your
dandruff will be gone. and three of four
more applications will completely dis
solve and entirely destroy every single
sign and trace Of it.
You will find, too, that all itching and
digging of the scalp will stop, and your
hair will look and feel a hundred times
better. You can get liquid arvon at
any drug store. 1t is inexpensive and
four ounces is all you will need, no
matter how much dandruff you have.
This simple remedy never fails.

Special to Times Republican.
Des Moincs, May 17.-Patriotism will
be the keynote Of the republican state
convention this year, plans for which
arc being made at the meeting Of the
republican state central committee be-
ing held here today.
Apparently there will not be very
much for the party leaders, in conven-
ton assembled, to do, inasmuch as
there are no particular issues and no
big party fights looming up. Hence the
leaders here expect to make the most
of the opportunity to make it rousing
patriotic gathering.
1t Is probable Governor Harding will
be one of the principal speakers and
that he will deliver patriotic address
rather than a strictly political talk. a
band from Camp Dodge may be Sc
cured for the occasion.
County Conventions June %.
County conventions under the pri-
mary law must be held the fourth Sat
urday after the primary. which this
year would bring them on June 30 and
the state convention then follows not
earlier than the first Wednesday and
not later than the fifth Wednesday
after the county conventions which
usually throws the state convention
late in July, altho it is possible to hold
it as early as July 8. 1t Is planned this
year to hold the convention late.
At the meeting Of the state central
committee here today plans were dis
cussed for stimulating local interest in
the prima ries of June 80 as to get out
the vote. 1t seems to be the impression
that from present indications only
about so per cent Of the voters will get
out to the polls on primary day. Hence
the committeeman will go home and
try to stimulate interest in getting out
the vote June 8.
There is possibility that the selec-
tion Of q party nominee for secretary
Of state may go to the convention.
Secretary of State w. s. Allen. who is
out for fourth term: w. G. Ramsey,
Of Belmond Charles A. Hall. of Bed
ford, and G. c. Pugh, Of Des Moines,
are the candidates and it is possible no
one Of them will have a sufficient lead
