NEW RESERVOIR TO AID DROUGHT AREAFARMERS State Forest Project Will Give Employment in * Stricken Section. Building of an 11,000,000-gallon reservoir for the state forest in Clarke county will begin at once, as the state conservation department’s contribution to southern Indiana drought relief. Director Richard Lieber said today. present irrigation water supply at the Henryville forest is 2,000,000 gallons. Fanners in the vicinity, who have been “burned out.” will be given relief through employment on the new reservoir project, it is planned by Ralph F. Wilcox, state forester. Twenty-five or thirty farmers, with teams, will be needed, he said. One-half million seedlings will be available at the forest next spring, Wicox declared. The dry season reduced fungus troubles in the beds of trees and has been an aid to the nursery, if nothing else, he asserted. Dr. William F- King, state health director, has issued a warning to districts using rivers, or other imported water, to boil thoroughly and kill the germs before drinking or cooking. Danger of epidemics lies in the drought area, due to contaminated water, he declared. One of the health board engineers is aiding officials of Patriot, in Switzerland county, to find anew water supply.

A little olive oil may be used if the scalp is excessively dry. Lambert Pharmacal Company, St. Louis, Mo., U. S.
