BALD HEADS NOT WANTED.
Baldness Is Too Generally Considered
Sign of Advanced Age.
A bald-hearted persou does not have
an equal chance with one blessed with
a healthy head of hair, because bald
ness Is too generally accepted as an
Indication of ape. Many large corpora
tions have established an age limit, and
refuse to take men over 33 years of
age as new employees.
Probably C of bald-headed people
may regain a jrood head of healthy hair
If they will follow our advice and ae
cept our offer. We have a remedy that
we positively guarantee to grow hair
on nny head, unless the roots of the
hair are entirely dead, their follicles
closed, and the scalp has become glazed
and shiny. We want people to try this
remedy at our risk, with the distinct
understanding that unless It does ex
actly what we claim it will, and gives
satisfaction in every respect, we shall
make no charge for the remedy used
during the trial.
We know exactly what we are talk
ing about, and with this ofLr back of
our statements no one should scon,
doubt our word, or hesitate to put our
remedy to an actual test.
We want every one who Is suffering
from any scalp or hair trouble, dan
druff, falling hair, or baldness to try
our Itexall "03" nair Tonic. We want
them to use it regularly say until
three bottles hare been used and If
It does not eradicate dandruff, cleanse
and refresh the scalp, tighten the hair
In Its roots, and grow new hair, we
will return every cent paid us for the
remedy for the mere asking. There
is no formality expected, and we exact
no nbllgatlc n from the user whatever

WASHINGTON, D. C, Jan. 17. A
bill of great Import was Introduced
in the house of representatives today
by Representative Lever, of South
Carolina, and In the senate jointly
by Senators Hoke Smith and Page.
The bill provides for the further en
dowment and support of agricultural
colleges to enable them to assist in
getting into practice the best meth
ods of agriculture evolved by opera
tion of the plan of establishing and
maintaining agricultural colleges and
experiment stations In the various
states.
This measure is the Joint work of
the National Soil Fertility league,
the Executive Committee of the Col
leges of Agriculture and the states
men above named. It is In line with
President Taft's recommendation in
his address at the National Conserva
tion congress at Kansas City, Mo.,
September 25. It has the support of
the house leaders of both parties,
and it may be regarded as an omnl
partlsan measure.
General Plan.
According to the general plan out
of which this measure springs, it Is
proposed that the procedure shall
consist of getting into general prac
tice the best methods known of scien
tific agriculture by employing trained
agriculturists, or practical farm
demonstrators, skilled in the most
approved methods of farm practice,
to take to the farmer on his own
farm the information or knowledge
that will enable him, the latter, to
Interpret and adopt to hla local con
ditions the best methods of farming.
In plain terms, It will as rapidly as
poss'ble, place a trained, practical
man, selected and directed by the
respective state agricultural colleges,
permanently In each agricultural
county of the United States, and en
ables the farmer to become master
of his calling aided by the best ser
vices the country can furnish, and
supported by federal and state funds.
According to the provisions of the
bill there will be an appropriation
beginning at the rate of less than one
cent per capita and will approximate
three cents per capita by the time the
annual appropriation shall have In
creased from $500,000 per year, the
starting point, to a little over three
million dollars, when It reaches the
maximum. To have a clear idea of
the distribution of these fundi it
must he understood thafeach state
receiving Its share of the fund must
appropriate an equal amount for this
purpose.
Increase be Heavy.
Most authorities have expressed
the belief that the operation of this
plan will in a few years increase the
farm output at least 50 per cent.
That means an increase of wealth
per capita of about $50 per annum,
and it adds to the country's assets
four and one-half billions in national
resources. The average acreage of
Europe gives from two to three times
the yield of the American farms, not
withstanding their soil has been pro
ducing for centuries more than the
lands have been cropped here.
In the president's opinion this
promises to be the most valuable
constructive legislation of recent
years. Speaker Clark says the mind
cannot grasp the benefits that should
grow out of this movement. Ma
jority Leader Underwood expresses
the belief that It will do more" good
to more people than any other single
enactment In a generation.
Look at these figures: We must
produce more or eat less.

WHY?
You get more for your money. It is hog tight. It is bull proof; turns rabbits and
chickens It is made of heavy wire that is neither too hard nor too soft and is more
heavily galvanized. It has the perfect hinge joint, which enables you to stretch it with
ease over rough and irregular surfaced ground. It is not the CHEAPEST, but it IS

Pearson of Adams, Neb., purchases
from Henry Schubert 14 T acres
of land lying to the eastward of the
city, and running through from A
to D streets, and located this side
of R. E. Kroh's handsome Tokay
Heights. The purchase price was $8,
800. Mr. Pearson, the purchaser, will
make his home on the tract. His
family consists of his wife and a
grown son, and all are pleasod with
the Grants Pass region. Mr. Tear
son had visited over the northwest
before purchasing here, and found
this city and county and conditions
much more to his liking than regions
elsewhere. The climate, too, added
much to his resolve to locate here.

merchant, and also lived In Lincoln.
He is In touch with many of the best
