The Easiest Way
To End Dandruff

There is one sure way that never
fails to remove dandruff completely,
and that is to dissolve II. This
destroys it entirely. To do This, just
get about four ounces of plain, orii-
nary liquid arvcn; apply it at night
when retiring; use enough to moisten
the scalp and rub it in gently with
the finger tips.
By morning, most il not all, of
your dandruff will be gone, and two
or three more applications will com
pletely dissolve and entirely destroy
every single sign and trace Of IT,
no matter how much dandruff you
may have.
You will find, too, that all itching
and digging of the scalp will stop
instantly. and your hair will be
fluffy, Iustrous, glossy, silky and
soft, and look and feel a hundred
times better.
You can get liquid arvon at any
drug store and four ounces is all you
will need. This simple remedy new
er fails.

OWNERS
DIVIDED ON PAVING

Property owners are divided on
whether or not to pave Buena Vista
street. which threatens to halt one o.
the city's largest single paving prof.
Gets in years, Street Commissioner
Paul Steffler reported Tuesday fol-
lowing a mass meeting Of residents
and city officials at the Prospect Hi!
Baptist church Monday night.
There was not one-half of the prop
erty owners present" Mr.. steffler said,
~but those opposed to paving the street
were in the majority
at is taken that those who failed
to show VI are willing to surface the
street" he said.
If Buena Vista is paved the total
cnst will be approximately $4,000,
Of which the city pays a little more
than S23 600, according to City Engi-
ncer !. EWig.
The plan is to top the thoroughfare
lctwecn the I.-G. y. tracks and Muir
raw street, a distance of nearly one
arc one-half miles.
Property owners also failed TO GET
together on whether they want one
or two-inch asphalt topping, Commits
sioncr Stefflcr said.
The city recommends two-fnch top
ping and that the width Of the street
be made 30 feet, four feet shorter than
its present size.

CANTERBURY, Conn.,, Sept.

Sitting hens" as pumpkin
booze is called here, got its
name from the fact that a pump

alcoholic in twenty-one days, the
time required for sitting hen

The owner Of the cows had
heard what an elegant jag the

half a dozen pumpkins with
sugar in a shed near the house.
The cows found it and went
on a party. The after affect OF
such a COW jag is that the COW

In the infested areas of the Big
Bend area little attention or interest
could be aroused for several years and
farmers generally scoffed at the stories
told about the pink bollworm having
annihiliated the cotton industry in a
number of countries During the sea-
son of 1924 the pink bOllwOrm was

as high as 40 per cent of the cotton

and federal inspectors representatives
of Arkansas, Arizona and Louisiana
protested to the Federal Horticultural
Board and the Texas Department of
Agriculture for permitting this prac-
tice. Crushing facilities of this area
are now adequate and inspectors of
other states are contending for a quar-
antine of all cotton seed and cotton
products from this area and from com
pulsory routing Of the cotton products
through the gulf ports to northern
points.
Another great danger in the pink
bollworm situation is the difficulty of
Graduating the pest from the West
Texas areas. The pink bollworm infes-
tations in Mexico makes this difficult
While the West Texas areas are well
isolated from the rest of the cotton
belt because of geographical barriers
there is nevertheless possibility that
infested materials will be carried out
as souvenirs, etc, by tourists ana
others Numerous interceptions of Pill
lows. stuffed with cotton seed, cotton
bolls. and other dangerous material
which is collected at the Mexican bor-
der will show how difficult it is to Grad
icate the pest from the West Texas
areas so long as it occurs on the other
side of the Rio Grande.
Finally. even if the pink bollworm
were eradicated from all of Texas
there arises the great danger of in
difference and carelessness on the part
of the cotton grower when eradication
has been nearly obtained aud where
there are no longer evidences Of the
work. This situation obtains at the

The rapidly expanding cotton indus
try of the irrigated regions of West
Texas, the impOssibility, at present, of
eradicating the pink bollworm from
West Texas and general Indifference to
the seriousness Of this pest are jointly
responsible for placing the cotton in
carious position today that is has ever
occupied. While it is true that the
cotton bOll weevil has caused wide
| spread economic readjustments in the
South it is equally true that the addi-
tion Of the pink bOllworm will undoubt-
edly mean the abandonment of cotton
growing over large areas of the South
If this pest becomes established in the
same manner that the boil weevil did.
The rapidly expanding cotton indus
try Of West Texas has already sub
iected the cotton belt to great dangers.
An idea of the extent of the develop
ment Of the cotton industry Of this sec
tion may be realized when one learns
that in the region north Of Maria, Tex
as, extending to Loving, New Mexico,
the number of cotton congresses has
been more than doubled in one year
In this area the pink bollworm has
only Scant foothold and is regarded
with Indifference. Last year, owing to
inadequate crushing facilities, ship
ments Of cotton seed were permitted
out Of the area provided that the seed
had been sterilized. over 400 tons of
cotton seed were shipped to the heart
of the cotton country Of East Texas
from this area. Owing to the possi-
bility of human error as well as to the
chance of accidents to Sterilizing mach

Little Rock Letter

A dairy derby is to De one Of the
features Of the 9TH Annual State Fair
which will be held on the permanent
grounds west of Little Rock, October
1217. This is expected to become a
classic event in which every farmer in
Arkansas will have direct and per-
sonal interest. 1t is proposed that the
best COW in each county in the prOduc-
tion of butter fat will be selected and
all of them brought to the State Fair
to enter competition for the state
championship.
When the Fair opens in October, the
Association will have physical assets
amounting to practically one million
dollars and it will be in splendid finan-
cial condition. improvements amount
ing to approximately $150,O00 in new
buildings and amusement devices will
he completed by that time. The grounds
are also being beautified by competent
landscape artists and being made as
attractive as possible.
The prizes in the Agricultural De
partment last year amounted to $1,000
but this will probably be increased for
the 1925 fair to $4,000. 1t is the pur-
pose of the management to make the
Arkansas State Fair truly the univer-
sity Of the people.
