FEW FOLKS HAVE
GRAY HAIR NOW
Druggist Says Ladies are Using
Recipe of Sage Tea
and Sulphur

Hair that loses it's color and lustre
or when it fades, turns gray, dull
and lifeless, is caused by a lack Of
sulphur in the hair. Our grand
mother made up a mixture of Sage
Tea and Sulphur to keep her locks
dark and beautiful, and thousands
of women and men who value that
even color, that beautiful dark shade
of hair which is so attractive, uses
only this old-time recipe.
Nowadays we get this famous mix
ture improved by the addition OF
other ingredients by asking at any
drug store for a bottle Of "Wyeth's
Sage and Sulphur Compound
which darkens the hair so naturally
so evenly, that nobody can possibly
tell it has been applied. You just
dampen sponge or soft brush with
1T and draw this through your hair
taking one small strand at a time
BY mourn the gray hair disappears
but what delights the ladies with
Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur Compound
is that, besides beautifully darken.
ing the hair after a few applica
tions, it also brings back the CLOS.
and 1ustre and gives it an appearance
of abundance.

WONDER At AMERICANS.

An English woman, writing from
Kovno, tells of the introduction of
Anglo-American parlor games into
Lithuania. She says:
"A children's party was attended
by English and Americans, includ-
ing woman doctor from the United
States, and lots of our Lithuanian
friends. The latter Joined in our
absurd games of blind mans Bluff

ENCOURAGE PULLETs TO LAY
Avoid Any interruption Of Regular
Habits Or Radical Change in
Fowls Diet.
prepared by tho United States Depart
ment Of Agriculture)

prepared by tho United States Depart
ment Of Agriculture.)
The growing pullet is a creature of
habit, thoroughly addicted to regular
ity and vigorously opposed to disturb
ance and unusual commotion. 1t Is
essential for the good Of the flock In
its entirety that the pullets should
grow and improve like clockwork,
from the time Of Matching to maturity.
Laying is often retarded by seemingly
trivial disturbances, such as moving
the fowl from place to place and
changing the makeup of the ration.
In order to insure early eggs see to
it that the growth Of the pullets is
not retarded in any manner whatever.
Almost without exception the pullet
whose growth from Matching to ma
turity has been regular, not subject
to checks and Interruptions, is an
early layer. In support of the state
ment that checked growth results in
retarded laying, comes the fact that
Aay-hatched pullets often lay earlier
than others which were Matched in
April but retarded in the early stages
Of their growth by unfavorable
weather. Retardation by weather
conditions, however, is only one Of
many factors which may stunt the nor
nal growth Of a pullet and defer her
entrance to the laying class.
As a rule, egg production begins at
or before the cessation Of the pullet's
physical growth and development Of
the reproductive organs. Generally,
influences which hinder growth also
operate to delay egg production for
several months. Any disturbance af-
fecting the habits, quarters or COM
fort Of the pullet at any stage Of her
life may retard laying. Shifting the
birds from place to place and abrupt
changes in the diet often disturb the
fowl enough to retard laying. In fact,
poultry fanciers who desire to keep
pullets ina condition for exhibition
often use this means of keeping them
from laying. On the average, pullets
about to begin laying are more SEN
sitive to disturbances than at any 9TH

YOUNG CHICKS NEED WARMTH
When Brooded by Hens They Remain
Under Mothers Nearly All the
Time for Three Days.

prepared by the United States Depart
ment Of Agriculture.)
The first requirement Of young
chicks is warmth-a temperature COM
Portable for them. Chicks hatch in a
Temperature Of 1O2 degrees to 105 de-
grees F. When brooded by hens they
remain under the mothers nearly all
the time for two or three days. Chicks
shipped in small boxes are kept warm
by the heat of their bodies so long as
the boxes are not exposed to near
freezing temperatures, but this natural
heat is not sufficient when they are
given more liberty.

er stage Of their growth, and there
fore require greater care in handling,
but disturbances retarding the growth
even Of small chicks are likely to post
pone the beginning Of egg production.
It Is imperative that every poultry
keeper exercise the maximum Of eau
ton from the time the chicks are
. .hatched until the pullets attain ma
turity, so that the fowl will make reg
ular growth and not be subjected to
any factors which will stunt or divert
the proper development Of the birds.
The alphabet Of proper management
Of the pullets emphasizes such factors
a. correct nourishment, constitution,
exercise, and cleanliness. Given the
proper care and surroundings, the
early-hatched chick will develop into
q profitable, early and persistent pro-
ducer Of eggs. This is the goal to-
ward which every poultryman should
work.

VIOLENCE OF FREE SPEECH

Radical newspapers like the Fargo
Courier-News which apologized for
the killing Of the Legion boys at Cen
trala. WASH. and now deplores the
deportation Of Reds, have habit Of
saying in between the lines that they
are opposed to violence of any nature.
They are of course opposed to univer-
sal military training and any meas
ures that NAV be taken to preserve the
orderly functioning of law and order.
But they do put up strong plea
for free speech. They want the |.
w. WIS, the Red Socialists. the
Townleys, Millses, the Debses and
others of that ilk to arouse the pas
sions of the susceptible to the point
of going out and doing violence,
but they would not have the law take
cognizance Of such infammatory talk
until the actual violence occurs. In
other words the policy of the radical
press is to lock the stable after the
horse is gone.
