SUGAR WILL AVIATE EVEN HIGHER, FEAR OF CITY MERCHANTS

Contrary to general belief, say Richmond retailers, the price of cane sugar is predicted to go even higher. It seems almost impossible to obtain it at any price. One local retailer ' stated that he had $22,000 paid out for sugar which they can not get. This caused im to pay any price demanded if he wants to get some of the small supply :o be had. A letter sent to this retailer by the II. E. Motts company, of Cleveland, one of the largest wholesalers in the United States, gives the sugar situation in the following excerpts: "While imports of sugar have been greater than at any time in the past, this offset in the world situation by the enormous increase in consumption and the heavy falling off in production the world over. It is estimated that the output will be 15 below preceding years. This decrease is materially due, of course, to the decline in the output of beet sugar in Europe together with a record low output of Louisiana sugar. "In 1919, Louisiana produced only 242,000,000 pounds as compared with 661,800,000 pounds in 1918: 487,200,000 pounds in 1917 and 607,800,000 pounds in 1916. European Crop Short. "The European crop, practically all of which is produced from beets, was in the year before the war 8,185,000 tons and the crop for the current year I? estimated at 2,S00,000 or only about one-third that prior to the war." "The outlook for the future points to even higher prices. The markets throughout Central America are now bare of sugar. The situation in Brazil also looks discouraging in as much as the government has adopted the licensing system. The Cuban crop is Practically exhausted." A telegram from the same company fisks an irrevocable letter of credit immediately if the local concern wanted try sugar, and states that there are SOo buyers for every bag of sugar offered. This condition makes it impossible for the retailer to guage the price of his sugar. He that gets it is indeed fortunate.

Plant Popcorn This Year; There's A Market For It! Very few farmers plant popcorn in this section, but it la considered a profitable crop; if not for sale, then for home use. Time was when every farmer put In a little popcorn and it is surprising how much of it can be grown, even in a garden plot. Make a seed bed as if for vegetables and plant much more closely than you do field corn. Rice" popcorn is the biggest seller, but does not "pop" well the year it is grown. There are a number of varieties, ranging from white to black, the latter matures early, pops extra large and can be used shortly after harvested. Many Iowa farmers have grown rich in growing popcorn, and there is always a market for it at good prices.

WASHINGTON The fair ankle of Doris May, who with Douglas MacLean is appearing in Thomas H. Ince pictures, received a warm reception that it did not exactly appreciate during the filming of "Mary's Ankle," the photoplay which is coming to the Washington Theatre next Sunday, Monday and Tuesday. According to the plot, Mr. MacLean is an Impecunious young doctor without funds and without patients. Though unmarried, he has sent out announcements of his wedding in order to beguile a promised fortune from a wealthy uncle. The uncle is coming to see his bride. The worthy doc, unable to produce a spouse, is panicstricken. At the psychological moment, a pretty

And here's where the fun came in. - No sooner had Mr. MacLean started to apply the remedy to Miss May's ankle, while the cameras clicked merrily, than the latter sprang to her feet with an exclamation of pain. "My foot is on fire!" she cried. Mr. MacLean started in alarm. Then he looked at the liniment bottle in his hand. "Under no circumstances rub the liquid into the skin." he read.

The only sure way to get rid of dandruff is to dissolve it, then you destroy

it entirely. To do this, get about four !

ounces of ordinary liquid arvon; apply it at night when retiring; use enough to moisten the scalp and rub it in gently with the finger tips. Do this tonight, and by morning, most if not all, of your dandruff will be gone, and three or four more applications will completely 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 at once, andyour hair will be fluffy, lustrous, glossy, silky and soft, and look and feel a hundred times better. You can get liquid arvon at any drug store. It is inexpensive and never fails to do the work. Advertisement.
