Plant Succession Crops Now.

: =
June calls for changes in the gar
den, says the truck crops men at Iowa
State college. The early vegetables
such as radishes, lettuce, peas and
early turnips, are gone and theil
places must he filled by other plants
Succession crops of sweet corn and
beans are best used to follow the early
crops. Early varieties of sweet corn
such MS Golden Bantam are best
adapted to June planting. Snap beans
and lima beans both can be planted
in June. Other vegetables which may
be put in the ground at this time are
parsnips, satisfy and cucumbers for
picking.
Cultivation is important in the gar
den during the month of June. The
spring rains and hot weather favor
the grccth of weeds and the hoe must
not b.. apple sparingly. Hoe all the
surfaln. bu; not deep enough to injure
the roots of plants. Weeds are best
killed by cutting them off just below
the surface Of the ground. Keep the
soil fine and in good mulch to con-
serve the summer moisture.

Guard Wheat Against Rats and NIies

The greatest wheat crop ever produc-
ed in America will soon be harvested.
Grain elevators will soon become veri-
table treasures which thieving rats
and mice will break into ii they can.
Don't feed 1926 wheat to rats and
mice, says the United States depart-
meat Of agriculture. Traps, poison,
and rat-proof construction will stop
their raids.
The arch enemies of stored grain are
dampness and rodent pests rats and
mice. An elevator with leaky roof
IL only little worse than one allowing
free entry to rats end mice. The pres
ent price of wheat makes a telling APP
peal for rat-proof construction OF wheat
containers. Now is the time to fill rat
holes with cement OF cover them with
sheet iron, and to build new mouse
proof granaries Of either concrete or
galvanized sheet iron.

LADIES'! DARKEN

Use Grandrna's Sage Tea
and Sulphur Recipe and
Nobody Will Know.

The use of Sage ana Sulphur for re-
storing faded, gray hair to Its natural
color dates back to grapdmother's
time. She used it to keep her hair
beautifully dark, glossy and attrac-
tive. Whenever her hair took on that
dull, faded or streaked appearance,
thts simple mixture was applied with
wonderful effect.
But brewing at home ID mussy and
out-of-date. Nowadays, BY asking at
any drug store for q SO cent bottle OF
"Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur Com
pound" you will get this famous old
preparation, improved by the addition
Of other ingredients. which can be de-
pended upon to restore natural color
and beauty to the hair.
"A welI-known downtown druggist
says It darkens the hair 70 naturally
and evenly that nobody can toll 1t has
been applied. You simply dAmpen q
sponge or soft brush with 1t and draw
this through your hair, taking n

gray yhAir disappears, ana aftAr an
other application or two. It becomes
beautifully dark and glossy.

The duties Of the placement officer

Mr.. Zelier said today hat so far as
possible vocationally trained service
men will be placed in their home
communities as 1t is believed that in
this way the men will have ar addi-
tional incentive in their work.
A number OF interesting cases Of the
spirit OF the wounded men who are
receiving training were cited by Mr..
zellef. who spoke particularly Of one
man In Minneapolis who lost both
arms and legs n who is now a wool
buyer. The spirit of the man is shown
in his statement that a man Is worth
about 1890 from the neck down but
M estimate can be made of his worth
from the neck up. This man Is max

There are about 1000 men in North

SOUSA Is SANEST
OF ALL BANDMASTERS

Il has been remarked repeatedly
that, Notwithstanding the exaggera-
tons Of his imitators, Sousa is the
sanest of the bandmasters Of the gen
Grafton. He eschews the meaningless
and wholly theatrical mannerisms
which are affected by 50 many other
leaders for the sole purpose Of at
tracing attention and eliciting COM
ment. sQtsa leads with an easy grace
that seems to be a part Of the music
he is conducting, yet with a masterful
precision which, absolutely controls
the wonderful body of musicians
banded together in his name. The
program presented by Sousa and his
band always contain something new,
and we are wondering what special
treat will be offered when they appear
here IN October 80 at the auditorium.
