BILBO'S POSITION.

The irrefutable logic Of the col
lege presidency situation is that if
the people of Columbus especially
and the state generally do not want
Bilbo as president of the Industrial
College they will elect Russell gov
ernor Bilbo, in a letter to Hon. O..
F. Lawrence, secretary of the board
of trustees, says that if Russell is
defeated he will be an applicant for
the position. In his denial of the
Ross Collins rumor he said that if
Russell was elected he would not be
an applicant, for the position, but
would retire to private life and prac
tice his profession at Poplarville.
Here's a good chance to get rid of
Bibo and the whole state should unite
to do it.

LEGIsLATURE no CONVENE.

TO CONVENE.
One of the abnormal conditions of
our time is the situation the State
institutions find themselves in trying
to meet the operating expenses out
of before the war appropriations.
They are like the salaried man whose
salary has remained the same, and
whose purchasing price has been cut
in twain by the reduced value of the
dollar. The problem has become SO
acute that Gov. Bilbo is going to call
the legislature in extra session next
month to deal with it. incidentally
he will ask for the woman's suffrage
amendment to be ratified and few
other things to be legsilated on, es-
pecially laws to check profteering
and to punish the profiteer. Also II
may be expected that the governor
may have a few Legislative axes to
grind as a result of the elections, but
these will come out later.

TO BE HEARD.

The American farmer is not going

Industrial situation. He has made
MS voice known. This was made
lear the past week at Washington
gheu representative heads of farmer
organizations all over America made
heir positions known before the SEN

Howard explained that the deeds
required would include cutting out
of profteering in goods and wages

RAPID STRIDES MADE
IN CORN GROWING


Arrangements have been made by
The executive committee of the Della
ware Corn Growers Association for
holding the thirteenth annual state
Corn Show at Dover. December t6 20
IS. This association which was organ
izcd In 1909 has met with marked sue
cess in creating a wider interest in pro-
duclng corn OF larger yield and better
quality. At that time very little was
known OF the comparative merits Of
local varieties Of corn. The association
IN conjunction with the Department Of
Agronomy Of the Delaware College tx
pertinent Station has succeeded In test
Ing out uhny Of these varieties some
Of which have proved 20 be Of superior
merit As a result the association has
named and introduced i'm the corn
growing circles two or three varieties
Of corn which are now well known TO
the public, even i'm other States. one
OF these is known as the Delaware, q
white cap yellow corn; the other is
Sussex White, a variety found to be es-
pecially we'll adapted TO the light lands
Of the State. At the same time such
varieties as Johnson County White and
Bcids Yellow Dent have been intro
duced from other States AMI now are
known in every corn growing section,
as they have proved % be splendidly
adapted 20 Delaware.
The annual State Corn Show has
given corn growers the opportunity Of
comparing their own corn with that Of
standard varieties and OF noting the
good points OF high producing strains.
The association has been instrumental
Is placing Delaware in the list Of seed
corn producing States and for a num-
ber OF years large quantities Of seed
corn have been bought in Delaware.
10 is hoped that the Corn Show this
year will be one OF the largest in the
history Of the organization. While the
season has not been especially favor
able for corn. yet farmers are finding
that the quality Of the grain is much Z
better than was expected.
The association will offer premiums |
not only for corn. but for wheat, oats. |
soy beans. cOwpeas, clover and grass /
seeds. Prizes will also be awarded for |
exhibits Of forage in the sheaf.
A premium list is being prepared !
which will be issued shortly.

RELIABLE METHOD
OF HAIR CARE.

Hair is by far the most conspicuous
thing abois US and is probably the
most easily damaged by bad or care
less treatment. II we are very careful
IN hair washing we viii have virtually
no hair troubles An especially nne
shampoo for this weather, one that
brings out all The natural beauty OF
the hair, that dissolyes and entirely re-
moves all d1ndrum, excess oil and dirt,
can easily be used at triling expense by
simply dissolying a teaspOonful OF cam
throx (which you can get at any drug
gisrs), in a cup OF hot water. This
makes a full cup OF shampoo liquid
enough so 10 Is easy TO apply it TO all
the hair instead Of just the top OF the
head. This chemically dissolves all i'm
nurities and creates a soothing. cooling
hther. Rinsing leaves the scalp spot
lessly clean, soft and plant, while the
hair takes on the glossy richness Of
natural color, also a ilufllness which
makes 10 seem much heavier than II is.
After canthrox shampoo, arranging the
hair is a pleasure.
