sAGEBRUSH USED FOR ROADS
Despised Weed Is Now Declared to Be
Best Building Material in
Western States.

Nobody loves the sagebrush, yet
somebody is always trying to uplift it.
This is difficult task since it's ante
cedents are so bad. Nevada, COM
planned long time because she was
called the "Sagebrush state;;" hunters
hated the plant because of the bitter
flavor it impaired to the grouse; pros
pectors, settlers, stockmen despised 1t
because it encountered the earth. 1t
was fit only for rattlesnakes to coil in
and strike or for coyotes to blend their
tawny skins into vanishment.
Not long ago an Oregon man cried,
"Eurekai" He said that sagebrush
was the best bodybuilding material
in the West, says New York Sun.
Now Idaho claims in the despised weed
a source of great wealth and the solu-
ton of the problem of potash short
age: 1.-THE average acre produces
three tons Of sagebrush at a cost of
S25. The sagebrush burned in the
kiln gives from 25 to so per cent pot
ash. The supply is inexhaustible."
The Idaho poet, who called for q
festival Ito lift the curse from the
plant we know so we'll and should
love-" may now consider himself even
with those who jeered and refused to
foregather with him.

TO LAST ABOUT FOUR MONTHS Z.
OR INTO MONTH OF MAY.
BRITISH DELEGATES NAMED
Plans For Early Meet Are Result Of
Col. Houses Efort-Inter-Allied
Conference To Be Held On
December 16 or II.

Paris. - The opening of the peace
congress at Paris mas been set for
the first week in January. 1t is ex-
pected that the peace deliberations
will last about four months, ard that
final action will be reached toward
the early part of May.
The British delegates will be Pre-
mier Lloyd George, Foreign Minister
Balfour, Chancellor of the ExchequeE
Bonar Law, Labor Minister Barnes,
and fifth, who has not Deen Sc
iected.
The plans concerning the peace
meeting are the results Of Col. Ed
ward M. Houses long talk with Pre-
mier Clemenceau, following a confer
ence with Baron Sonninno, the Italian
foreign minister, and the Earl OF Der
by, the British ambassador to France
The inter-allied conference will re-
assemble on December 16 or II. The
meetings will be at the Foreign Of
fee in the Quai d'Orsay, and not at
Versailles. Premier Lloyd George
and Mr.. Balfour expect to come here
at that time to meet President Will
son and attend the conference, but
the elections in Great Britain may
not permit them to remain more than
two or three days.

To be possessed of a head of heavy
beautiful hair; soft, lustrous, fluffy,
wavy and free from dandruff is merely
a matter of using little Danderine.
1t is easy and inexpensive to have
nice, soft hair and lots of it. Just get a
small bottle of KnOwlton's Danderine
now-it costs but few cents-all drug
stores recommend it-apply little as
directed and within ten minutes there
will be an appearance of abundance,
freshness, fiuffineSS and an incOmpara-
BILE gloss and lustre, and try as you
will you cannot find trace of dandruff
or falling hair; but your real surprise
will be after about two weeks use,
when you will see new hair-tine and
dOwny at first-yes-but really new
hair-sprouting out all over your scalp
-Danderine is, we believe, the only
sure hair grower, destroyer of dam
druff and cure for itchy scalp, and it
never fails to stop falling hair at once.
If you want to prove how pretty and
soft your hair really is, moisten a cloth
with q little Danderine and carefully
draw it through your hair-taking one
small strand at time. Your hair villa
be soft,S glossy and beautiful in just
q few moments-a delightful surprise
awaits everyone who tries this.s ADV.

have outlets at all convenient points.
Cross drains or culverts should be
constructed wherever it is desirable
to transfer drainage water across the
road. and they should usually be pro-
vided with end or wing walls for pro-
tecting the slopes of the embanlment.
When the material composing the
roadbed is likely to be springy, a sys-
TEN of longitudinal undertakings
may be found necessary to secure
proper drainage. In constructing
road, of any type whatever, it should
be constantly borne in mind that ade-
quate and continually effective drain
age is absolutely necessary if the road
is TO be maintained in good condition.

Each Dairy Farm Should Be Equipped
With an inexpensive and Service
able Sterilizer Such as Is Shown.

ducers a simple homemade sterilizer,
costing not more than SIS, which if
used on the farm will help guard the
milk against this initial and serious
contamination. How great a bearing
sterilization of milk utensils on the
farm has on the bacterial content
of milk is shown by expert
ments which have proved that the
average milk can, when washed in the
ordinary way, may contain over eight
billion bacteria, and that almost every
milk can so treated harbOrs millions
of bacteria which give high bacterial
count and hasten the souring of milk.
The homemade sterilizer. for dairy
utensils which is to be demonstrated
uses steam as assterilizing agent. All
that is required to develop steam
enough to steriliZe the ordinary dairy
utensils is a two-burner kerosene stove,
and there is nothing about the device
which calls for special skill in it's eff
fective use. The department has
twenty Of these sterilizers, described
fered to supply an outfit for a two
weeks demonstration to any local
health or dairy official who will agree
to show it in operation to the milk pro-
ducers in his section.
The effectiveness of this sterilizer
has been fully proved both In the labo-
ratory and on the farm. In one ex-
pertinent ten gallons of fresh milk
were divided into two parts. Five gall
Ions, passed through a separator into a
five-gallon can, both utensils washed
in the ordinary way, showed at the
end of an hour 1,SS0,000 bacteria per
cubic centimeter. The other five gal
Ions, passed through a separator into
a can, after both utensils had been
washed and sterilized by means Of the
homemade sterilizer, showed only "a
600 bacteria per cubic centimeter.
The device, moreover, removes foul
odors and leaves the utensils dry as
well as sterilized. Experience shows
that the bacterial count Is thus mate
rally reduced, while the producer finds
! that his milk does not sour so quickly
and has an improved favor.
The specialists of the dairy division
are hopeful that the device, wherever
1t is demonstrated, will come into COM
mon use. 1t is believed that this ster-
iiizer will find ready adoption among
small dairymen because Of its low cost
of cO0Sf rJIption ond oporo4fo,o
cause its use will tend to improve the
quality and increase the keeping char
acter of the milk.

on reliable authority to express the
