RAIN WILL BRING WEED
IN ORDER BEFORE SAP

The weather continues, dry and
warm for this season of the year.
The continued dry weather is not
good on the new crop hanging in the
barns. Tobacco has not been in or
der since housed and the colors are
not as uniform as the would have
been if we could have had warm
rains to bring the tobacco in order
before the sap was thoroughly dried
out.
According to Mr. Kennedy's report
there is no activity in old tobacco il
hhds., although the Planters Protec
tive Association report inquiries fol
various grades of leaf, which the.
believe will devlop into sales in the
near future.

COMB SAGE TEA IN

If Mixed with Sulphur it Darkens
SO Naturally Nobody
can Tell.

Grandmother kept her hair beautj-
fully darkened. glossy and attractive
with brew of Sage Tea and Sulphur.
whenever her hair took on that dull,
faded or streaked appearance, this
simple mixture was applied with
wonderful effect. By asking at any
drug store for "Wyeth's Sage and
Sulphur Compound" you will get a
large bottle of this old-time recipe.
improved by the addition of other
ingredients. all ready to use, at very
little cost. This simple mixture can
be depended upon to restore natural
color and beauty to the hair.
A well-known downtown druggist
says everybody uses Wyeth's Sage
and Sulphur Compound now because
it darkens SO naturally and evenly
that nobody can tell it has been APP
plied-it's so easy to use, too. Yon
simply dampen a comb or soft brush
and draw it through your hair, taking
one strand at time. By morning
the gray hair disappears; after an
other application or two, 1t is restored
to it's natural color and looks glossy,
soft and beautiful.

Stecher to Hold
Title on Merits

Starting on what he believes will
be the busiest season he has ever
known as wrestler. Joe Stecher.
present holder of the worlds heavy
weight championship. announces
that any time he is defeated the fol-
lowers of the mat sport will know
he couldn't defeat his opponent. In,
other words, Stecher wants to regis
ter his opposition TO the usual GUS
tom among wrestlers of taking turns
at being the victor.
Since he took the titular silks away
from Earl Caadock, Stecher has met
every grappier who sought n match
with him. He has not argued over
guarantees or even insisted upon
certain amount OF pay for his ser
vices. In every match he has bren
the winner by as large margin as
lie cared to make 1t.
Stecher says his policy with re-
yard to wrestling "on the lever Is no
different now than 1t ever was. but
that he feels 1t Is incumbent upon
him, as champion, To take n stand
- thN VI httLhb- TIE SbltS
clean, and the only stand he can
take Is TO defeat every man he meets
If he is able to defeat them.
It Is interesting to note In Stech-
er's preseason speech another de-
NAL OF the existence OF the much
talked OF wrestling trust. The western
youth says he is looking out for Joe
Stecher first last and nil the time,
and any trust or combine that ex-
lists among the wrestlers does not
include his name with his consent
In connection with his advertised
plan to meet any who desire chance
at the championship, Stecher does
not seriously consider Stanislaus
Hbyszko as championship timber.
Stecher asserts the Polish star has
Ilong since passed the age at which
wres'lers can reasonably hope to
lead their division, and then he adds
that he Is willing to meet Stanislaus
any time or any place an ambitious
promoter will make the proper in
cucements for the match. Stecher de-
clares he wants the title only as
long as he Is active In the garnc. He
advises that he viii give Il ur when
he decides to retire and he intimates
the day for his retirement is not far
distant. Stecher opened his season
late In August and will work reeu-
larry until May
