Barnes Makes Plea
% tor Better Farm
Credit Facilities
Former Head of Grain Ad
ministration Predict* Higher
Grain Price* — European
Crops Are Short.
• litcago, Dec. 13.—Plea for better
ei edit facilities for farmers and fore
cast of improvement In grain price*
were the themes of Julius H. Barnes,
former head of the United State*
grain administration, in a speech be
fore the Illinois Chamber of Com
merce here.
"The farming problem can be leg
itimately helped,” said Mr. Barnes,
"by better and long credits properly
secured and on a business basis. It
will tint be helped by legislative at
tacks upon marketing methods which
have stood the test of keen and active
competition, the surest method in the
elimination of the unfit and the sur
vival of the fltteat.
The fanning industry has suliered
a relative disability, in relation to the
pries of farm products to the com
modities which the farmer must buy.
This is so clear that it is Indisputable
hut the position of the grain raiser
hns vastly Improved In tho last two
months. Moreover the outlook is one
of further encouragement as to price.
I venture to say that If today there
could be In siane magical manner re
constructed in Europe normal condi
tions of tlnances, the effect would be
» startling advance in grain prices In
ja America.
^ "The bread grain crop of Europe
thin year is fully 200,000,000 bushels
short of last year's Insufficient pro
auction. It is quite within the range
of possibilities that the coming spring
will witness in Europe the most acute
position as to bread supply it has
seen sinpe tlie war. If. due to this
situation, only 20,000,000 bushels of
wheat were lifted from America's sur
plus and sent to Europe, it would prob
ably result In on advance of 20 to 80
cents a bushel in the price of wheat.”

SAGE TEA KEEPS
When Mixed With Sulphur It
Brings Back Its Beautiful
Luster at Once.
Gray hair, however handsome, de
notes advancing age. We all know
the advantages of a youthful appear
ance. Your hair is your charm. It
makes or mars the face. When if
fadts, turns gray and looks streaked,
just a few applications of Sage Tea
ami Sulphur enhances its appearance
a hundred fold.
Don't stay gray! Look young!
Blither prepare the recipe at home or
get from any drug store a bottle of
"Wyeth's Sagei and Sulphur Com
pound,” which is merely the old time
recipe improved by the addition of
other ingredients. Thousands of folks
recommend the ready-to use prepara
tion, because It darkens the hair beau
tifully, besides, no one can possibly
tell, as it darkens so naturally and
evenly. You moisten a sponge or soft
brush with it drawing this through
the hair, taking one small strand at
a time. By morning the gray hair
disappears; after another application
or two, its natural color is restored
and it becomes thick, glossy and lus
trous, and you appear years younger.
Bare, Neck and Arms Faslly Made
smooth, Says Specialist.
Any breaking out of the skin, even
fiery, itching eczema, can be quickly
overcome by applying a little Mentho
Sulphur, declares a noted skin special
ist. Because of its germ destroying
properties, this sulphur preparation
begins at once to soothe irritated skin
and heal eruptions such as rash,
pimples and ring worm.
It seldom falls to remove the tor
ment and disfigurement, and you do
not have to wait for relief from em
barrassment. Improvement aulckly
shows. Sufferers from skin trouble
should obtain a small jar of Bowles
Mentho Sulphur from anv good drug
gist and use it like cold cream.
