Adv. 9000 MORE ACRES IN Additional Reserve Land in Yakima Valley Is Sown With Grain, of Which Most is Wheat. Prospectus Prospects . In spite of the scarcity of farm la borers, th 1b department predicts that the crop of book agents selling com plete histories of the war will be as numerous this year as ever, Emporia Gazette. , Yakima, Wash. Nine thousand acres of new land have been put under cultivation on the Yakima Indian reservation this year, according to L. M. Holt, superintendent of the Indian reclamation serivce. This acreage is largely in grain, principally wheat. The estimated wheat planting on the reservation is 12,000 acres. Superintendent Holt was obliged to discontinue development work on the canals until congress passes an appro priation bill. The bill as passed by the house carried $500,000, but the senate cut this to $250,000. A con ference committee has the matter un der consideration. Should the larger appropriation carry and the bill soon pass so as to allow early use of the money, the increase for the season of 1919 is estimated at 20,000 acres. The reservation has 60,000 acres under the Wapato project for which water is ready, but the canals are not yet dug. Empty Victory.

New York Revelation of the gov ernment's plans "to divorce Germany permanently irom American industry and commerce," will be made by A. Mitchell Palmer, custodian of alien enemy property, at a meeting here May 8, under the auspices of the Na tional Security League. Accepting the league's invitation to speak, Mr. Palmer wrote from Wash- ngton: "I shall address myself to the sub ject, 'Germany's Industrial Army on American Soil.'

It Works! Try It Tell how to looien lore, tender corn so It lift out without pain. No humbug! Any corn, whether hard, soft or between the toes, will loosen right up and lift out without particle of pain or soreness. This drug is called freezone and Is compound ot ether discovered by a Cincinnati man. Ask at any drug store for a small bottle of freezone, which will cost but trifle, but is sufficient to rid one i feet of every corn or callous. Put a few drbps directly upon any tender, aching corn or callous. In- tantly the soreness disappears and shortly the corn or callous will loosen and can be lifted off with the fingers. This drug freezone doesn't eat out the corns or callouses but shrivels them without even irritating the sur rounding skin. Just think! No pain at all; no sore ness or smarting when applying it or afterwards. If your druggist don't have freezone have him order it for you. Adv. "The darkest hour is just before the dawn."

No. 19, 1918 The use of Sage and Sulphur for re storing faded, gray hair to its natural color dates back to grandmother'i time. She used It to keep her hair beautifully dark, glossy and attractive, Whenever her hair took on that dull, faded or streaked - appearance, this simple mixture was applied with won derful effect. But .brewing at borne is mussy and out-of-date. Nowadays, by asking at any. drug store for a B0 cent bottle of "Wyeth's Saee and SiilDhur Com pound," you will get this famous old preparation, Improved by the addition of other Ingredients, which can be de pended upon to restore natural color and beauty to the hair. . " 4 well-known downtown druggist says It darkens the hair so naturally and evenly that nobody can tell It has been applied. You simply dampen a i sponge or soft brush with it and draw i this through your hair, taking one i strand at a time. By morning the j gray hair disappears, and after an i other application or two, it becomes j beautifully dark and glossy. ! Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur Com pound is a delightful toilet requisite for those who desire a more youthful appearance. It Is not Intended for the cure, mitigation or prevention of dis ease.
