already has gone sour from continuous cultivation and the "sour land line" steadily is moving westward. Lime applied in amounts determined by the Truog or thio-cynate test, does more for eastern Ohio land than any other one thing, these soils specialists state. The need of land for lime, they continue, can be Indicated by as simple a process as applying blue litmus paper, such as dentists and physicians use on their patient's tongues, to wel soil. If the paper turns pink, the land is acid. But to get a quantitative reading, indicating the amount of lime that is needed to correct the acidity, a more complicated test is needed. In this new test, the thi-cynate so

lution is shaken up with soil in a bottle, and allowed to stand. The mixture developes a color which, read against a standard color chart, indicates accurately how much lime is needed to sweeten the land.

Ohio will have more apples this; year than it had last year. This news comes from R. B. Cruickshank, secretary of the Ohio Horticultural society, who points out, however, that the apple crop in the state will fall considerably below the five-year average this season. "The total apple crop is estimated at 190 million bushels," Mr. Cruickshank said. "Last year's crop was 98 million bushels, and the average crop of the five years preceding was 179 million bushels. 'Teaches, taking the country as a whole, probably will make a bumper crop, and pears a normal crop of about 15 million bushels." Except oranges, lemons, and grapefruit, all kind3 of fruit appear to be better than they were last year, as to total crop.

DEMOCRATS EXPECT

TOCASTLARGEVOTE IN ARKANSAS AUG, 8

(By Associated Press) LITTLE ROCK. Ark., Aug. 7. A number of contests and vigorous campaigning are expected to bring a record vote to the polls tomorrow for the Arkansas Democratic state primary election. Predictions are that the total vote cast, with favorable weather, will reach 140,000. The total vote cast for governor in the last general election was 190,113. ' The Ku Klux Klan, while an unknown factor, is expected to play some part in the outcome of the election. While most of the fights are within various counties throughout the state

for county officers, it is believed in some quarters that agitations both for and against the Klan will effect state wide election results. -In several counties, according to newspaper reports, the Klan had secret elections to determine which of two are more klans members, candidates for the same office, should be supported by the Klan and file aa candidates for the nomination. In Lit

tle Rock, headquarters for most of the candidates for state offices, the klan, according to an account published in the Arkansas "Gazette, indorsed an entire state ticket. Governor McRac was endorsed by the Klan, it .was reported, although he is not a member of the organization. Many of the other state officers indorsed are not members. The only issue which apparently has been raised by either side is Klan or anti-Klan.

even before the judging begins. The big potato, two or three times as big as it ought to be, will have .no better chance of winning a ribbon. Only smooth, even, well-sized potatoes, of pure breed, will be accepted by show officials. , "The odly-shaped and over-sized tomato, onion and carrot will meet the same fate if brought to the fair," says Superintendent Guy Cantwell. "The same is true of other kinds of vegetables, just as it is of fruits, ' grains, or even live stock. Odd shaped vegetables have no place at the fair than a deformed cow, horse, or rooster." Fair officials have set a high standara for the vegetable exhibit and hope to make it one of the most interesting educational exhibits of the fair. Wide distribution is being given to the rules and prizes of the show, and prospective exhibitors are being urged to select their exhibits carefully. They are being informed that root, crops, such as potatoes, carrots, beets and radishes, should be trimmed carefully. Only the varieties accepted

in the premium list of the fair should be gotten ready. Prize money totaling $3,500 .will be paid out to winners in the vegetable show. Entries must be in by Aug. 21.

Senator Pomerene is ' undoubtedly in a position where the presidential lightning is reaching out

for the formula "a good safe middle of the road man from Ohio." Having taken the precaution to get himself born in the &tate which is the fountain

In Wyoming, the other state which holds senatorial primaries next Tuesday the outcome is even more certain than in Ohio:' The Wyoming senator whose successor is to be chosen is Kendrick. Kendrick is that rara avis, a Democrat representing Wyoming in the United States senate. Kendrick came in as a result of the Wilson tidal wave which carried Wyoming for the Democrats in 1916. He will win renomination next Tuesday.

Upon the same date in the Republican primaries his Republican opponent will be nominated in the person of Frank Mondell, who, after 26 years of service in the lower house, the latter part of it as floor leader, is non to

The Best Shampoo For Bobbed Hair Cleero Cleanses Hair and Scalp A Perfectly. Requires No Rinsing. Leaves Hair Fluffy and Lustrous. Try It. o Does it take a whole hlilf day to wash your hair? You can do it in thirty minutes with Cleero. Cleero, as you know, is the marvelous discovery of M. Dore, one of Europe's most famous hair specialists. It contains only pure vegetable oils (oil of olive and oil of cocoanut), two beneficial solvents of grease and dirt, and a splendid emollient. But the most wonderful feature of Cleero is the fact that you need not rinse your hair after its use. When you shampoo the old way with soap, it is necessary to drench your hair with water time and again in order to get the soap out. For soap left in the hair dulls its lustre and may prove positively harmful. Cleero removes all the dirt, leaves the hair fluffy and lustrous and requires no rinsing. That means that your hair will be normally dry in thirty minutes after a Cleero shampoo.

Buy a bottle of Cleero at your druggist's today and try M. Dore's famous beauty secret. You will never go back to ordinary shampoos after you have experienced the luxury of Cleero.

Send 10c in stamps for a trial bottle of Cleero, enough for two shampoos. ) Distributed in this country by Fairfield and Co., Inc. Wrigley Bldg., Chicago
