FARMERS' FRIEND DIES
PROFESSOR SHAW ADVISED AGRI
CULTURISTS OF NORTHWEST.
Confidence Felt in Him by J. J. Hill
Gave HI in Opportunity to Do
, Constructive "Work.
WHITE SALMON. Wash.. July .20.
(Special.) In the death of '' Professor

He visited the farming districts trib
utary to these lines, meeting In the
communities their growers and pro
ducers to listen to their troubles and
to give them expert advice. Often he
would go out to their farms and exam
lne soli and other conditions.
Few men have played the part Pro
fessor Shaw has in the development of
our Northwest. The late J. J. Hill, of
the Great Northern Railway, placed
the utmost confidence in his ability
and gave him a free hand in experi
mental work along his lines. - He was
commissioned by Mr. HIll to visit Scot
land and purchase a herd of full
blooded Guernsey cattle to be used "to
breed up the dairy stock of the North
west. Hundreds of farmers have ben
efited by this step. His work In Guelph.
Ontario, the birthplace of J. J. Hill,
and where he was head of the govern
ment agricultural school, first at
tracted the-attention of Mr. Hill to his
worth as an agricultural expert.
Professor Shaw- was-, author of 15
books on agricultural subjects. He
was president of the board of trustees
of Macallster College of Minnesota for
many years and an elder 'of the Pres
byterian Church for 25 years.
Professor Shaw is survived by a
widow, two sons. Dean Robert S. Shaw,
of the Lansing, Michigan, Agricultural
School and Professor William T. Shaw,
of the State College at Pullman, Wash.;
two daughters, Mrs. J.- K. Robinson and
Mrs. M. H. Reynolds, of St. Paul.

Alkali Makes Soap
Bad for Washing Hair
Most soaps and prepared shampoos
contain too mucn aijcan, 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. Tou 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 teaspoonful is all
that is required. It makes an abundance
of rich, creamy lather, cleanses thor
oughly and rinses out easily. The hair
dries quickly and evenly and is soft,
fresh looking, bright, fluffy, wavy and
easy to handle. Besides, it loosens and
takes out every particle of dust, dirt
and dandruff. Adv. .
