DON'T SPOIL YOUR HAIR

When you wash your hair, be care
full what you use. Most soaps and
prepared shampoos contain too much
alkali, which is very injurious, as il
dries the scalp and makes the hair
brittle.
The best thing to USE is Mulsif;ed
cocoanut oil shampoo, for this is pure
and entirely greaseless. It's very cheap
and beats anything else all to pieces.

Practical Hop
Sprayer Made

mdependence, Or, Aug. 5.-Alone
with progress in gas motor devices has
come the invention of practical hop
snrayer For years effort had been
amended to produce a contrivance
that would automatically throw the
spray to the top of vines, but the de-
vices have operated poorly and IN
MANY cases inadequate. To be sure
the hand pump and the air pressure
sprayers serve their purpose in a meas
ure, and when not out of order, are
worth of commendation. But now
comes an independence man, T. F.
Wethrow, superintendent of the Geo.
Lewis hop ranch, and a Salem man,
Dick Chittendon, who with great in
genuity have perfected device which
today operates in the Lewis hop yards,
and before long will probably find its
way into many of the hop fields of the
United States. 1t is pronounced by hop
experts to be the best thing of its kind
that has ever been introduced. A trac-
tor serwves the purpose of pump
and also conveys the big tank contain
ing the liquid through the field. The
advantage it has over other similar in

machine, while other devices require
from two to four men on a machine.

Few people ever think to look for hid
den things in places they know all

hidden them knows that they know

that people who hide things Will
choose places they think no one else
knows of So they seldom think to
look in places right under their very
noses.
Rusty the Fox Squirrel knew this,
and so that is why he had hidden his
store of fat hickory nuts in hollow
stump almost under the very tree on
which the fat hickory nuts had grown.

Then he had been shot by the hunter

all that time he had no chance to
watch over his store of nuts in the
hollow stump. SO when at last he was
free and hurried over to the old stump
and saw all about it the tracks in

how he dreaded to look in that

He climbed to the top of the stump.
and, as he feared, in the snow around
the edge were the tracks of Chatterer.
Rusty was sure then that Chatterer

Then he worked faster and faster.

Rusty began to do little thinking.
Those fat nuts had been safe all this
time in that hollow stump. but they
wouldn't be safe there much longer.
Chatterer would be sure to discover
that he. Rusty, was visiting that old
stump and that the leaves in it had
been pulled over. He would become
suspicious and would look under those
leaves.
The thing for me. to do is to take
those nuts away as soon as possible
thought Rusty. I'll hide them in sew
eral places, so that if one happens to
be found / will lose only part. If
| leave them here Chatterer Will be
sure to discover my visits. I'll get
busy at once and store them where
they will be fairly safe and where l
can get them when l need them with
out danger of giving away my secret"
So Rusty wisely started to work
taking away and hiding those fat
nuts.
