The only materially unfavorablo word came from Illinois, it was stated, and a few surrounding states, where a yellowish color :n or o(j the wheat has been diagnosed as a serious fungus disease. California alone of the important states returned an unfavorable report, having suffered a serious deficiency of lainfall that has reduced conditions l 83 percent and resulted in ten percent of abandonment of planted fields.

Use Cocoanut Oil for Washing Hair

If you want to keep your hair in good condition, be careful what you wash It with. Most soaps and prepared shampoos contain too much alkali. This dries the scalp, makes the hair brittle, and is very harmful. Mulsified cocoanut oil shampoo (which is pure and entirely greaseless). is much better than anything else you can use for shampooing, as thi scan't possibly injure tho hair. Simply moisten your hair with water and rub it in. One or two teaspoonfuls will make an abundance of rich, creamylather, and cleanses the hair and scalp thoroughly. The lather rinses out easily, and removes every particle of dust, dirt, dandruff and excessive oil. The hair dries quickly and evenly, and it leaves it fine and silky, bright, fluffy and easy to manage. Tou can get Mulsified cocoanut oil shamroo at most any drug store. It is very cheap, and a few ounces is enough to last everyone in the family for months. Adv.
