Two facts stand out prominently as
reasons for the increased production
and use of milk. The first Is that
milk as purchased on the market
usually supplies food material togeth-
er with the growth-producing meat or
eggs. The second reason is that the
dairy COW Is the most economical pro-
ducer Of animal food. One great law
of food conservation Is to turn In
edible feeds into edible foods In the
cheapest possible manner. The dairy
COW will utilize coarse materials. in
edible to humans-such as grass, corn
stalks, hay, etc.-and will turn them
into milk. Other farm animals also
are converters of coarse roughage into
edible foods but are not SO efficient as

Forecast Instant Rejection.

Washington-Instan rejection by
the United States will be the fate Of
the latest peace proposals from the
Central powers.
President Wilson will handle the sit
uation, and handle 1t in hurry. He
is expected to act as soon as the state
department receives officially the text
of the notes from Berlin and Vienna.
There was no disposition in official
circles to distinguish between the
German and Austrian moves, as the
proposals are deemed but another step
in the great peace offensive now un-
der way Because the two govern
ments are acting in accordance on the
matter. word of similar action on the
part OF Turkey is expected momen-
tarily.
1t can be stated semi-officially, how
ever, that peace is impossible at the
present time as far as either Germany
or Austria is concerned. The reason
it is impossible is because they have
made it so. Officials expressed dis
gust at the hypocrisy which cloaks
the present proposals, and which
glares from beneath the camoufiage of
good faith.
Here are the reasons they ad-
vance:
The military situation has made the
move necessary and therefore reveals
1t as a diplomatic attempt to avert the
disaster German armies face on the
field of battle.
Germany has undertaken some re-
forms and appointment of Prince Max
of Baden, termed "parlor radical" +,

But II is pointed out, an improved
military situation would allow the mil

Well-Prepared, Attractive Parcel Post.

a lower price than they can obtain in
their local markets. 1t Is needless to
say that such imperfect and erroneous
ideas as to proper and equitable prices
altogether defeated the possibility OF
marketing produce by parcel post.
Business in marketing by parcel post
can be secured and held only by ship
ping produce of high quality and by
charging reasonable prices.
The larger the quantity, within the
postal limits, that is shipped at any
one time, the more economical Is the
factor Of postage and therefore the
more attractive from the viewpoint Of
cost both to the producer and to the
consumer. This applies both to ship
ments and the return of empty con-
tainers. 1t would not be economical to
secure half dozen different kinds of
vegetables from as many different pro-
ducers, but If supply of half dozen
fruits, could be obtained in one parcel
from one producer 1t would be both
advantageous and attractive.
Another advantage to the producer
In parcel post marketing Is that his
mail box or local post Office becomes
his shipping station. This relieves him
from any extra trip In order to make
shipment, as the rural mail carrier
takes the shipment from the mail box
or some member of the farmers fam
lily deposits 1t at the post Office when
going to call for the mail.
Many farmers often have a small
surplus Of produce, not needed for
home consumption, which could be
marketed IL some ready means Of get
ting 1t to consumer were available.
The parcel post supplies this medium.
There are also many supplemental or
side lines Of production which could
be developed for the same purpose.
Mutual confidence and helpfulness
are needed in order to succeed; coop
Grafton is needed. Consumers are in
terested in buying by parcel post only
when they can secure more satisfac-
tory produce, some advantage in price,
| or both. The producer will not be In
terested in marketing by parcel post
unless 1t means some additional net
return to him. A high quality of prod
uce, we'll prepared, carefully and at.
tractively packed, and forwarded so as
to reach its destination at the time de-
sired will go long way toward the es-
tablishment and continuance of busi-
ness. Ordinary or inferior produce will
not only lose customer but hinder the
gaining Of others. The producer must
aim to give satisfaction by supplying
his customers, as nearly as possible,
with produce which meets their indi-
vidual desires. The consumer must
also aim to give satisfaction by proper
ly caring for and returning containers.
making prompt remittances as agreed
upon and by doing his part In all
phases Of the transaction. In other

Paris Unconditional surrender
characterizes the general comment in
Paris on the demand for peace sent
by the Central powers to President
Wilson. 1t is felt here Germany and
her allies have not gone far enough
in their request to the president for
an armistice and although they have
stated they are willing to talk peace
on President Wilson's plans, they have
not shown submission, such as was
forced upon Bulgaria. The Paris
newspapers are unanimous in their
demand for complete victory. The
present peace move is sneered at. A
demand is made for the entire sub
mission of Germany and that the Ger
mans be disarmed.

No other hair remedy even re-
motely resembles FAMO.
FAMO kills the dandruff germ and
stops the unhealthy flow from the
sebaceous glands.
Every ingredient in FAMO is well
known to physicians.
But none of these ingredients
were ever before applied to saving
the hair.
Science perfected FAMO in one of
the oldest pharmaceutical houses in
Detroit-famous for its laboratories
which supply physicians all over the
world with medical goods.
FAMO not only kills the seborrhea
microbe but it makes the scalp and
!hair as clean as that of baby.
It ends all itching of the scalp.
Even where badness has already
appeared (unless the hair roots are
absolutely dead) FAMO will encour-
age and stimulate the growth of new
hair.
Many women say FAMO has
caused their hair to grow from
four to six inches.
FAMO retards grayness and
strengthens the natural color. 1t
contains no alcohol to dry the
scalp and produce gray hairs.
1t makes the hair luxuriant and
lustreful and if there is a tendency
to waviness FAMO intensifies it,
Famo should be used by every
member of the family.
It can safely be used on the head
