Girls! Try this! When combing and dressing your hair. just moisten your hair-brush with a little ''Dan- derine" and brush it through your hair. The effect is startling! You can do your hair up immediately and 1t will appear twice as thick and heavy--a mass of gleamy hair, sparkling with life and possessing that incompatible softness, freshness and luxufiance.
 While beautifying the hair Dan derine" is also toning and stimulat- ing each single hair to grow thick, long and strong. Hair stops falling out and dandruft disappears.

w. A. STREET CAN RUN


Some people are wondering why
"BilP Street is such vote getter.
But if they will take the pains to
analyze the platform upon which he
ran, the answer will come quickly.
First, let US ask why did he put out
platform with SO many pIanks !?
The answer is that he was shrewd
enough to know what the people
were clanoring for they want
Home Rule" - they want less Com
mission form of Government = they
want less tax burdens - they want
the privilege Of saying whether they
want months or months school,
etc. He had his ear to the ground
and got the sentiment Of the big ma
jority, whether right Of wrong, and
this big majority responded in the
Primary He advertised his senti-
nents thru the newspapers and used
lots of printers ink - the real and
only way, nowadays, to get in
touch with the people - and he won.
and he will be winner this fall.

Farm Bureau Notes

Il / wish to call attention to mis-
take on the spray for early potatoes.
It reads as follows in the paper,
spray with lime and sulphur 5-5-50,
this is wrong.
Spray with the following formula
pounds Of lime, 5 pounds of copper
sulphate lbluestone) to so gallons
of water, which is Bordeaux Mixture.
Early Potatoes: Begin spraying
with $3.50 Bordeaux and arsenate
of lead, to 8 pounds of powder to
so gallons Of spray, as soon as flea
beetles or Colorado beetles appear.
Use this spray at intervals of about
10 days as long as beetles persist.
From one to three, applications may
be necessary. After beetles disap-
pear, or at least by the time the po-
tatoes are in bloom, begin sprayin :
with Bordeaux alone at intervals Of
10 days to 2 weeks, depending on
the amount of rainfall, and continue
as long as plants remain green
These later sprays help greatly in
controlling .tipburn. Usually, a TO
6 sprayings will protect the plants
until they are mature.
Late Potatoes: Spray with Boz
deaux and arsenate Of lead as need
ed to control the beetles when plants
are young. In all sections where late
blight often ocurs, begin spraying re-
gularly by July with Bordeaux
Repeat at intervals of 10 days to
weeks until plants mature. Four to
six weeks spraying win be necessary.
Keep the plants well covered wit,
the spray.

Washington, Feb. I6-Officers of the International Seamen's Union have discovered joker of one word in the ne wimmigration bill, now be- | fore the house, which would destroy the La Toilette seamen's law. Andrew Furuseth, president of the seamen's union, declares 1t is the most subtle and most scientifically planned attack on labor law that ever came under his observation.
 The La Toilette law permits an alien seaman to leave his ship and stay in port Go days, after which he must ship in another vessel bound for for eign ports. Prior to this law, If he left his ship he was arrested by Amer ican officers on complaint of the vessel owner and placed in irons until sail ing time.
 The present law protects the sea- man in demanding American wages before he will re-ship. This forces higher wage standards on foreign ves- sels, and is the reason these vessel owners and their American stockho1d- CTS scream against the La Toilette Seamen's law.
 Foreign vessel owners are opposed to permitting their seamen to land," said President Furuseth They do not want their low-wage seamen con taminated' by talk of American wages and American living standards they would hear in American ports.
 "The secretary of labor has been ordering these alien seamen to de- posit heavy bonds before they can land Courts have ruled that the sec retary of labor has no such power, but that official continues demanding these bonds
 Recently Federal Judge Hough of New York released a seaman on habeas corpus proceedings and used yer ystrong language with reference to the department of labor converting private vessels into prisons in the har- bors of this country.
 "The immigration bill now appears in the house with section which pro- vides, among other things, that the secretary of labor shall have power to make regulations and conditions under which an alien seaman may land.
 "The joker is the word conditions If that IS accepted by congress, for eign ship owners will employ just the kind that will be held, and the sea- rmen's act Is repealed
 This will legalize the very thing that the courts have held illegal, and IS the very thing that the foreign ship owners want" said President Fur useth, who pointed out that the entire La Toilette seamen's law revolves around the right of alien seamen to leave their vessels.

Mortgage Sharks
 Cause High Rents

Washington, Feb I6-Mortgage sharks are a greater factor in high rents than high building costs, ac- cording to R. S. Whaley, chairman of the District of Columbia rent com mission.
 The rent official pointed to the tre- mendous commissions charged for second and even first mortgage loans
 Cases were referred to where a 20 per cent. commission was paid for first mortgage money because the lender knew in a few years the prop erty would not be worth what the builder was asking. "The same holds to a greater extent for second-mortg- age loans," said Mir Whaley "No second-trust money can be had in the ordinary case for less than g per cent. Often 1t is 40 per cent That means the renter must pay just that much more.
 People enormously claim the high cost of labor and building materials are responsible for high rents. On the face it looks that way, but the situa- ton is just reversed. Spectators know the renter can't find home, so they squeebe all they can out of him"

LABOR MEN
 MADE PEERS

London, Feb 9,-In order that the Cabinet hay have spokesmen in the House of Lords the King today confer red the title of Baron on Sir Sydney Olivier, Secrtary for India; rBig-Gen. C. N Thompson, Air Secretary, and Sydney Arnold, Under Secretary of State for Colonies. The titles were con- ferred on recommendation of the Gov err1rnent.
 Sir Sydney Olive, who now becomes peer, was noted for his Socialistic ten- dencies even while in Oxford Universi- ty. The son of country parson he en- tered the Colonial Office in London soon after his graduation and has held many colonial appointments in the West In- dies and elsewhere He was Assistant Controller of the Exchequer when he re- tired from the civil service in 1920. He had prominent part in the development of the Fabian Society, through which the intellectuals prepared the way for Labor to come into power.
 Sydney Arnold, who formerly was one of Mir MacDona1d's secretaries, is said to be a strong advocate of capital levy which IS not the attitude taken by the average peer. He joined the Labor party in 1922, having previously been parliamentary private secretary to the President of the Board of Education.

JERSEY COURT
 UP AGAINST IT
 ON STRIKE BILL
Court Wants to Be Fair and Just and Now Must Decide
 Just How.

Trenton, Feb. o.-Two bills by Sen ator Simpson of Hudson, one per mitting peaceful picketing during la- bor disputes and the other requiring trial by jury for contempt of court under injunctions issued in labor dis putes, were the subject of hearings before the judiciary committee of the Senate, yesterday. Both measures were supported by representatives of organized labor and opposed by coun- sel for the Manufacturers Association of New Jersey.
 Labor contended that injunctions issued by the court of chancery in New Jersey have gone so far ir strike disputes as to enjoin innocent acts, including peaceful persuasion, during strikes. Adding to such injunctions the power to punish by imprisonment for contempt, labor leaders argued, has practically deprived the labor man of his most effective weapon-the strike
 Speakers for the bill were Arthur Quinn and Henry F. Hilfers, presi- dent and secretary of the State Fed eration of Labor; Martin P. Devlin Of this city and Henry Carless of New ark, counsel for labor organizations.
 Against tllC Dlll "CIO ClIdliIS L. Hendrickson of Jersey City, counsel for the New Jersey Manufacturers Association, and Warren R. Schency of New Brunswick, who represented the Sayre-Fisher Company, complain ant in contempt proceedings follow ing an anti-picketing injunction grant ed by Vice-Chancellor Buchanan. Both lawyers argued that If the pro posed legislation were enacted the court of chancery would be rendeerd powerless to enforce it's orders or in functions and violence and force would inevitably accompany strikes of the future.
 Senator Emerson Richards of At 1antic City said he and his committee associates believed something should be done toward modifying injunctions, but questioned whether the bills would accomplish this purpose. He said the injunction is an inherent power of the court of chancery which cannot be limited by statute. If, how ever, he said, the court of chancery were deprived of it's injunction power that tribunal would be paralyzed and would be unable to make effective in junctions which are issued as ire quently in the interest of the work ing man as against him. MT. Rich ards said the committee would try to evolve plan to accomplish the pur- pose of the Simpson bills without killing the patient"
