Nearly every one likes a fine
hair dressing. Something to
make the hair more manage
able; to keep it from being
too rough, or from splitting
at the ends. Something, too,
that will feed the hair at the
same time, a regular hair-food.
Well-fed hair will be strong, and
will remain where It belongs
on the head, not on the comb!

that Syrup of Figs and . Elixir of

value, but one of many reasons why
it Is the best of personal and family
laxatives is the fact that it cleanses,
sweetens and relieves the internal

debilitating after effects and without
having to Increase the quantity from
time to time- "
It acts pleasantly and naturally and
truly as a laxative, and its component

ARE LEARNING KALE.
Oregon Farmers Overcome Prejudice
of Long Standing.
from ths Oreaxm Agricultural Collega, Cerrallla.
Kale is one of the best talking crops
in Oregon. When the Oregon booster
wants to prove that Oregon is the
best dairy state in the union he has
to talk kale. Unless he knows what
kale will do to the milk bucket he has
not qualified as a boosrer. It is called
the thousand-headed kale, and the
botanist knows it as brassica eleracea,
but it is the plain kale of four letters
that does the talking. The strange
thing is that it has only been during
the last two or three years that it
has had an audience, though it is
nearly thirty years old in the Willam
ette valley. It has tried to talk all
those years, but the people wouldn't
listen when it sought recognition.
"We never heard it talk," they in
sisted, back in Iowa and New York.
Back there cows produce milk with
out kale, and I guess they will have
to here." That is tradition. It took
thirty years for kale to get an audi
ence in this state and live down tra
dition. The dairymen of New York under
stand what green succulent food
means to the dairy cow, and they
build expensive silos, buy expensive
machinery, and grow fertility-robbing
corn, which they irrigate with their
sweat, in order that the farmer dur
ing the long winter months may have
an excuse for milking his cows. The
Oregonian needs no expensive silos
to remind the cow of the good old
summer time. Kale I A thousand
blessings on the thousand-headed
kale I It is making Oregon tjie
greatest dairy state in the union.
iWhen grown under favorable con
dltions kale will yield 40 tons per
acre 8f green feed, and its chief value
is as a soiling crop during the fall
and winter. Splendid results are be
ing secured by feeding kale and vetch
hay to dairy cows, without any grain
or mill feed. Dr. Withycombe, of the
Agricultural College, says that 15
pounds of vetch hay and 40 pounds
o kale a day is practical'v a balanced
ration for a dairy cow. Mr. W. L.
Wilson, of Banks. Or., says: "I re
ceived $207 from 14 cows in the month
of December, and fed them nothing
but kale, turnips and vetch hay. The
man who feeds chop would have to
make $237 to clear as much as I do.
I have not had a speck of mill feed in
the barn all winter."
Mr. Byron Hunter, of Corvallii,
has,-as assistant agriculturist of the
bureau of plant industry, U. S. depart
ment of agriculture, made a special
study of the forage crops of Western
Oregon, and in Bulletin No. 91, pub
lished jointly by the Oregon Experi
ment Station and the Department of
Agriculture, has the following to say
about kale, which is timely:
"Methods of Sowing. For fall and
winter use kale is usually sown in
drills on well prepared and drained
soil as soon after the 15th of March
as the season will permit. This fur
nishes plants for transplanting in
June and July. The land used for
transplanting is well manured and
plowed two or three times between
the) first of March and the firit of
June. With the land in perfect tilth
It is plowed again with a 12-inch plow
about the first of June, and the young
kale plants dropped into every third
furrow about two and a half to three
feet apart. This olaces about one
plant on every square yard. The roots
of the plants are placed where the
next furrow covers them, leaving the
tops uncovered. The plants that are
plowed in during the day in this way
are rolled in the evening of the same
day to pack the ground. Two or
three cultivations are all that can
usually be given, for the plants will
soon touch in the row, if they do well.
Any plants that fail to grow may be
replaced- by hand. Some growers
prefer to plant the seed in hills, and
when the plants are farge enough thin
them to one plant in a hill. Others
put kale out just as cabbace is usually
transplanted, instead of plowing it in.
The time of transplanting must be
determined by the size of the plants
and the condition of the land. If the
land is wet and subject to overflow
the transplanting may be delayed un
til during July. If the land is well
drained and the plants are large
enough, it may be done before the
first of June. In transplanting,
enough plants may be left for a stand
on the land where the seedlings are
grown.
A man living at Maud wants to know
if he can irrigate his trees by means
of a water wagon and barrels. Pro
fessor Thornber did not favor the plan,
Btating:
"This would be rather too complex.
I am of the opinion that you will find
it too great an expense, considering
the value of a team and a man, to haul
this water during the summer. The
station would advise you to try and
conserve this moisture by means of
culture. This could be done with good
effect during the summer months. I
have had considerable experience on
the state college campus in hauling
water; and have concluded, first that
it is impracticable to place, water
around the tree without a heavy mulch
of straw; second, that nothing much
less than a barrel of water for each
tree at each watering, should be given.
This will soak the ground up fairly
well, and in our case, I did not need to
water the trees on the campus more
than twice during the summer. I do
not know that it will be possible for
you to make use of a heavy mulch, but
in order to hold the water, it is neces
sary to do so. You can use rotted
straw for this, or forest leaves."

There is scarcely any one, no matter how vigorous and healthy, who
does not need a tonic sometimes. Little physical irregularities upset the
system, the appetite fails, digestion is poor, the body feels tired and worn
out, and other unpleasant symptoms give warning that the system is disor
dered and needs assistance to ward off, perhaps, some serious sickness or
ailment. S. S. S. is recognized everywhere as the best of all tonics, nature's
medicine, made entirely of healing, cleansing, invigorating roots and herbs,
a systemic remedy without an equal. S. S. S. has the additional value of
being the greatest of all blood purifiers. It re-establishes the healthy circu
lation of the blood, rids the body of that tired, worn-out feeling, improves the
appetite and digestion, and brings about a return of health to those whose
systems have been weakened or depleted. S. S. S. acts more promptly and
pleasantly than any other medicine, and those who are run down in health
should commence its use at once. It will thoroughly purify the blood and
tone up the system. S. S. S. is admirably suited for a systemic remedy
because it is free from minerals ; it may be used without harmful results by
persons of any age, and no unpleasant effects ever follow.
