The outlook for heavy decreases in

the present, as may be gathered from
interviews with leading mercantile es-

both butter and eggs have declined
somewhat in the last week. Butter
has dropped 10 cents per pound in
the last week and fresh California

YOU cannot find a trace of dandruff or
falling hair; but your real surprise will
be after about two weeks use, when
you will see new hair-fne and downy

Deutschman for smuggling, and Car

WASHINGTON, Jan. 3.-The govern
ment's loss in operating the railroads in
1918 is calculated by railroad administra-
ton officials at about $l50,000,000. This
represents the difference between the ag-
gregate amount the government will be
compelled to pay railroad companies as
rental for the use of their properties-the
so-called guaranteed return-and the net
income from the railroads
1t will take SIX months more of receipts
from the increased freight rates to per-
init the government to recoup its losses,
officials believe If congress does not APP
prove the proposed five year extension
Of federal control, and President Wilson
carries out his announced intention of re-
turning the roads to private management
at an early date, the governments loss
will not be made up.
Operating revenues for the entire year
officials calculate, probably amounted tc
$4,s00.000,000, more than ever before IL
railroad history, and operating expenses
probably ran up to $3.50, 100000. This
