Use Cocoanut Oil
For Washing Hair

If you want to keep your hair in good
condition, be careful what you wash 1T
with.
Most soaps and prepared shampoos
contain too much alkali. This dries the
scalp, makes the hair brittle, and is
very harmful Just plain mulsifled
cocoanut oil (Which is pure and entire
ly greaseless), is much better than the
most expensive soap or anything else
YOU can use for shampooing. as this
can't possibly injure the hair
Simply moisten your hair with water
and rub it in. One or two teaspoon
fuls will make an abundance of rich,
creamy lather and cleanses the hair
and scalp thoroughly. The lather
rinses out easily, and removes every
particle of dust, dirt. dandruff and eX
cessive oil. The hair dries quickly and
evenly. and it leaves it fine and silky.

You can get mulsified cocoanut OF, az

Save the Birds.

The National Association Of Audubon
that we help win the war by conserva-
ton of our bird friends who save us
hundreds of millions of dollars worth
of food every year. It calls attention
to the deep SHOWS and the necessity
for feeding our bird friends. that they
may be here to assist us when the in
sect pests become active after the WIN
ter war is over and the peace of spring
is upon US. The seeds of weeds and
the eggs of insects are incased in snow
and ice and our little feathered friends
must suffer and perhaps perish unless
we send out relief expeditions with
hayseed. crumbs, scraps of meat. bones
and suet, anything that they will eat.
Farmers might carry out chaff from
the barn 1o6r and receive pay thou
sand fold for something of which they
themselves can make little use.
The agent of the Audubon societies
suggests that we fasten meat scraps
and suet securely to the trees and see
now eagerly the chickadees and wood
peckers go to it. Tread the snow
down hard and scatter the hay seed
and crumbs there. or put the food on a
box or board and watch the juncoes
and tree sparrows fill up. Put out
chaff and grain for the quail and
meadowlarks now, and keep it up
while the snow lasts. and they will
work for US destroying billions Of in
sects in the summer ahead Of us.
1t is a patriotic duty to feed and
protect the birds, if there is any truth
or logic in the slogan that food will
win the war" More birds and bet
ter crops and more food for us and
our fighting men.

Get Ready for Spring

The L. s. Department of Agriculture
adv. IS Take thought of the spring

Notwithstanding the large production

rothing to indicate there will not be

alton In 1918, declares the department.
Many gardens failed in the year just

some of this will be obviated by ex-
perience and greater care In the prep

For the average householder it will be
sufficient to prepare ground enough to

the fresh state. and for drying, can

That Is commonsense talk in sharp
contrast with the cords of fol- de -rol
sent out from various departments and
so-called patriotic societies that in
sisted on advising both householders
and farmers last spring. Much OF the
ground that was titled last spring by
the unskilled, unequipped and i'll
advised would be farmers was worse
than wasted because the seed planted
was thrown away and the purchase Of
this seed increased the difficulties of
obtaining seed by those who did have
knowledge of horticulture and we're
prepared to make use of seed they
could not get. And again, it raised
tlc prices of such seed and fertilizer
nnd poisons in Il degree that worked
hardships upon farmers and regular
market gardeners. Much of the ground

Advice concerning the early selection
Of seeds and the determining of loca-
