Packers Reply to
Senator's Assertion
Over Federal Control

Chicago, July 23.-The committee
o fseventeen, which is directing the
work of the recently organized
Institute of American Meat Pack
ers, replied for the packing indus
try to Senator Kenyon's assertion
in the senate that the packers are
stimulating an enormous propa-
ganda against his bill for regulation
of the industry. The committee
represents II smaller packing con-
Germs throughout the country. as
we'll as the big five here.
Senator Kenyon has charged in
the senate of the United States
that the packers are sending out
propaganda against his bill to place
the packing industry under federal
license, as if there was something
wrong in the actions of the packers
in that regard" said the statement.
Tho fact is the bill introduced by
the senator threatens the life of the
packing industry. 1t would amount
to practical government operation,
which, with this complex industry,
would result in greater disaster
than that which we have with the
government operation of railroads,
telegraph and telephone lines"

WHY SOCIETY WOMEN
WASH THEIR OWN HAIR

They do, not because it Is a fad.
but because they wish to obtain the
greatest possible hair beauty and be
sure they are not using anything
harmful. They have found that in
washing the hair it is never wise to
use a makeshift. but is always ad-
visablc to use a preparation made
for shampooing only. Many Of our
friends say they get the best results
from simple home made canthrox
mixture. You can use this at cost
of about 8 cents shampoo by get
ting some canthrox from your drug
gist and dissolving a teaspoonful in
a cup of hot water. This makes
enough shampoo liquid to apply to
all the hair instead of just the top
of the head, as with most prepara-
tons. Dandruff, excess oil and dirt
are dissolved and entirely disappear
in the rinsing water. Your hair
will so be fluffy that it will look
much heavier than it is. Its luster
and softness will also delight you.

state that by the time I had fin

FOREST FIRES
BUR n F|ERCELY
IN MANY PLACES
Two Montana Towns Only
Escape Destruction Through
Sudden Veering Of
the Wind.

Spokane, July 23,-Fires that for
weeks have been burning in the
national and privately owned for
ests in Montana, Idaho and Wash
ington again endangered two Mon
tana towns, St. Regis and Stark.
Only sudden changes in the wind
saved the towns, reports to the
federal forest service headquarters
stated.
With hundreds of forest fires
burning, the forest service officials
believed a change for the better was
in prospect with the predicted end
of the present hot weather, followed
by thunder showers, forecast by the
weather bureau.
Most Dangerous Firesa
The most dangerous fires in the
district were on Gold Creek, near
st. Regis, and in the Cabinet forest.
near Thompson Falls. The flames
were close to the towns. The Gold
Creek control lines were lost during
the high winds yesterday, although
the fire fighters managed to hold
the eastern end. Reinforcments
were put on the fire today.
The forest service estimated AGO.
900 acres of land have been burned
over during the present season,
100000 acres in Montana and 100000
acres in Idaho. The damage in
Montana was estimated at $325,00O,
and it was said that l0000O,0OO feet
of timber has been destroyed in
Montana and 100000 feet in
Idaho.
Breaks Out of Control.
The Henderson fire in the Lolo
forest, burning over front of Is
miles, broke through the control
lines at two points early today, run
ming half mile up Mullan Gulch
and a half mile toward Nine Mile.
The Niger Gulch blaze in the Lolo
forest swept northward to the vicln-
ity Of Stark.
One of the worst outbreaks of the
fires was reported on Hughes creek,
on the west fork of the Bitter Root
river. The fire advanced six miles
yesterday, burning over many acres
of timber. More men were sent to
fight the Rattlesnake fire, which
was considered beyond control.
Forest fires were reported also
from western Washington and
points in Oregon.

day were selling at $23.35 hundred
weight as against $500 yesterday
Until today, $500 was the highest

Decrease in the number of arri-
