FRIDAY, MARCH 8, 1818 LOW REUNION RATES FOR BLUE AND GRAY VETERANS Announcement Made That Govern ment Can Furnish Tranaportation t Washington, March I.—Director General McAdoo has decided that the Confederate Veterans shall have spec ial rates and no interference of trans portation to their reunion this sum mer at Tulsa, Okla., and that the Grand Army of the Republic shall have the same for its meeting at Portland, Ore. Because of the congested condition of the railroads, and also as a war measure, there was some probability that transportation facilities and rates might be denied to these special trains. The situation has cleared, Mr. F armer- The problem of producing enough food stuffs in this country to feed our armies abroad, our people at home, and at the same time supply a large surplus essential to our allies, has become so acute that the solution of this question may prove the actual turning point in a success ful conclusion of the war. DON’T YOU THINK IT YOUR DUTY TO YOUR COUNTRY to go the limit in aiding this situation? If you do, you ought to begin now by buying a good Here ford bull and crossing him with your native cattle, and if you haven’t any native cattle, you ought to get some. The beef stocks and breeding stocks of Europe have become terribly depleted by the war, and when the war is over the United States will be called upon to supply the tremendous shortage in foreign breeding stocks. DON’T YOU THINK IT YOUR DUTY TO YOURSELF to share in the extraordinary profits which this demand will bring about? If you do, buy a few Hereford cows or heifers now and lay the foundation for a purebred herd. If you give them reasonable care you will be amazed to see how rapidly they grow in numbers and in money value. LET NO ONE MISLEAD YOU. The Hereford is the best beef breed. The United States Government, through Farmers’ Bulletin No. 612, dated January 21, 1915, said: *‘As a ‘rustler’ the Hereford is surpassed by no breed of beef cattle, and they excel the Shorthorns in this respect •—they have been recognized as a breed which responds readily to favorable environment as w r ell as being able to thrive under adverse conditions where other breeds would not do well—as a breed they have a better heart girth, stronger constitution and can withstand adverse conditions better than the Shorthorns—they are early maturing and fatten readily in the feed lot—on plantations specially, and farms with only fairly good pasture, the Hereford will give better results than the Shorthorn.” If you are interested, be sure to attend the AUCTION SALE of FIFTY SELECTED HEAD of GEORGIA OWNED HERE FORD CATTLE to be held under the aus pices of this Association at MILLER UNION STOCK YARDS IN ATLANTA, at 12 o’clock noon, MARCH 29, 1918.

HAVE A MASS OF BEAUTIFUL HAIR, SOFT, GLOSSY, WAVY A Small Bottle Destroys Dandruff and Doubles Beauty of Your Hair Within ten minutes after an ap plication of Danderine you can not find a single trace of dandruff or falling hair and your scalp will not itch, but what will please you most will be after a few weeks’ use, when when you see new hair, fine and downy at first—yes—but really new hair—growing all over the scalp. A little Danderine immediately doubles the beauty of your hair. No difference how dull, faded, brittle and scraggy, just m oisten a cloth with Danderine and carefully draw it through your hair, taking one small strand at a time. The effect is amaz ing—your hair will be light, fluffy and wavy, and have appearance of abundance; an incomparable lustre, softness and luxuriance. Get a small bottle of Knowlton’s Danderine from any drug store or toilet counter for a few cents and prove that your hair is as pretty and soft as any—that it has been neglect ed or injured by careless treatment —that’s all—you surely can have beautiful hair and lots of it if you will just try a little Danderine. advt.
