GOAL SUPPLY TO BREWERS OUT BY FUEL DIRECTOR

To Free for War Industry Stocks of Coal Held by Brewers. WASHINGTON, July 11 A serious blow to the manufacture of beer has been struck In the United States, not by prohibition action in the congress, but by an order today from the fuel administration, acting with the food Mminist ration and the War Industrie! Boa rd. There may be beer in the .country for six months to a year longer, but after that time none until the fuel situation improves, probably none until the close of the war. Then It will be up to the congress again. And with the passing of beer will go all the near beer, the malt extracts and other Imitations made from cereals. The order is not a prohibition measure in any way. It is a conservation proposition, and the first 100 per cent restriction on nonessential Industry. It will free the great stocks of coal used by the cereal beverage people for war Industries, the huge quantities of their cereals for strictly

food uses and their employes for work

in esseetial industries.

It will be followed by other 110 per cent restrictions from the fuel administration against nonessential industries, in each case with the co-operation of the War Industries Board, and, where food materials are eon cerned, of the food administration. To Care For Workers. And in each case the United States Employment Service will step in to direct the future employment of the men thrown out of work by the shutdown. The brewers recently had completed a voluntary agreement with the fuel administration by which they would operate on a fifty-per-cent basis getting half their normal supply of coal. By the new order they will be permitted to operate on this basis until they have used the materials in process of manufacture, including malt already manufactured. After this is exhausted no more coal will be allowed them, which means no more beer or near-beer. "Estimates on their present supply of manufactured malt indicate a quantity sufficient to last six to ten months. The cereal supplies of the near beers will not last so long, and the dry states, where near beer is permitted, will be out of that beverage before the wet states are out of beers. "This is merely another step In the program of curtailment of nonwar industries," Fuel Administrator Garfield said. "The program was begun several months ago, and Is necessary in order that coal may be delivered immediately to war industries and to sections of the country remote from the mines." The brewery industry consumes approximately 3,100,000 tons of coal a year. Much of this will be diverted to New England, which gets most of its coal by water, and whose water shipments at this time are far behind schedule.

Eaton Man Kills Himself by Pulling Gun Trigger With Toe

EATON. O.. July 11.

REPORT BARBERRIES NOT YET REMOVED

BY J. C. KLINE. Any person who has removed the common or Hun barberry bushes from their property and knows anyone who has not complied with this government request, is asked to notify County Agent J. C. Kline. He will visit the owner who hasn't met this food request, point out the danger this plant is to the wheat crop because it harbors a certain stem rust of small grains, and ask the person to remove the noxious plant. Reports to the county agent from the .Purdue Extension Department show that more than 95 percent of those plants found during the survey in the spring have been removed, scarcely anyone, refusing to take them out. A few plants were overlooked, however, and . co-operation of those who have already met the federal request is asked in locating those that haven"t come out. Several cases of where these common bar-berries, not the Japanese varieties, have caused wheat infection, have been found this year in Indiana. One 10-acre field of wheat south of Ceriterville, is completely ruined by the black rust. A number of barberry bushes were growing wild in the woods nearby, and the infection of the wheat was caused from these bushes. This is a good example of what damage the barberry bushes will cause.

Don't Let Soap Spoil Your Hair

When you wash your hair, be careful what you use. Most soaps and prepared shampoos contain too much alkali, which is very injurious, as it dries the scalp and makes the hair brittle. The best thing to use is Just plain mulsified cocoanut oil, for this is pure and entirely greaseless. It's very cheap, and beats the most expensive soaps or anything else all to pieces. You can get this at any drug store, and a few ounces will last the whole family for months. Simply moisten the hair with water and rub it in. about a teaspoonfut is all that is required. It makes an abundance of rich, creamy lather, cleanses thoroughly, and rinses out easily. The

hair dries quickly and evenly, and is

soft, fresh looiting, bright, fluffy

wavy and easy to handle. Besides, it loosens and takes out every particle

of dust, dirt and dandruff. Adv.
