The use of Sage and Sulphur for restoring faded, gray halr to its nat- ural color dates back to grandmoth- er’s time. She kept her hair beauti- tully darkened, glossy and abundant with a brew of Sage Tea and Sulphur. Whenever her hair tell out or took on that qull, faded or streaked appear- ance this simple mixture was ap- plied with wonderful effect. But the brewing at home is mussy and out-of-date. = Nowadays skilled chemists do this better than our- selves.

Some druggists |and cultivation, and all'of the main buildings can be constructed on an elevation so as to overlook and face the lake. The depth of the property is between 800 and 900 feet, and it runs down to and in- cludes the shore line ‘of the lake which can ‘always be kept clear of buildings and parked as part of the school grounds. Then, too, there is sufficient room for athletic grounds, tennis courts, etc., in fact, there is nothing lacking, and it was the opin- ion of all that the site for the sixth Normal was the most beautifully lo- cated and ideal of any in the state. Will Have Pretty Park “The tract retained by the city that adjoins the school sife to be used for park purposes; will, when improved, greatly add to.the attractiveness of the grounds, and if necessity should ever require the use of additional land for the school, no doubt that tract can be secured from the city. “Bemidji is a city of fine schools, and the citizens feel very proud over the prospects of securing the new Normal as it will strengthen their educational standard. “That they will be loyal ‘to and -give the new educa- tional institution their ynited and hearty support there can be no ques- tion. “Superintendent Dyer of the Bem- idji schools is an able and well known educator of this state, and for a num- ber of years was superintendent of the schools at Slayton, Minn. He is a very clever gentleman, and did a great deal towards making the visit of the Normal board and commission to Bemidji a most pleasant one. High School Farm “Adjoining the city limits there is a ten-acre tract of land owned by the city school district and used as a test farm and agricultural gardens for the students of the city schools. The teaching of agriculture is made a strong course in the high school and a large number of students through- out that part of the county are tak- ing advantage of it, being anxious to gain the proper agricultural educa- tion to be fully prepared to cultivate the land as fast as' it is cleared of timber. “During an auto drive given the visitors' Wednesday evening the agricultural farm was inspected At the farm are raised crops of all kinds, fruits, vegetables, etc., all cultivated by the students, and in- deed every thing looked fine. Dem- onstrations are also being made on tracts on which different fertilizers have been used, and others where only the original soil has been plant- ed, and the difference in the crops is very noticeable. The sandy jack- pine soil prevails throughout that section, and in many instances it is very productive without the aid of fertilizers. The children of the dif- ferent grades also have their gar- dens which, under the expert care look very fine. “Bueford M. Gile is the head of the department -and all of the tests made and work at the farm is' done under his supervision.

Steamer and Auto Drive “During the afternoon the visitors were given a most delightful steamer ride on the lake and Mlssmsxppi river as far as the dam. In the early evening an auto drive was enjoyed around the entire lake a distance of sixteen miles, and it is hardly within our power to describe the grandeur of the scenery passed through. It was a beautiful ‘moon- light night and we were particularly. impressed: with the several tracts of tall virgin pine which was a new sight to most of the party, and are only to be seen in the northern part of the state. Most of the pine land through which we drove is owned by a Mr. Ruggles, a wealthy resident of Michigan, who is very anxious to ac- quire new tracts but will mot offer any for sale. His holdings are very valuable and include some of the {finest specimens of pine to be found {anywhere. Would l’mem The Pine “The citizens of Bemldjl lre very anxious: that these’ tracts.of » pine, which border on the lake and through | ~Marmne&«mmmflm jWhich one .passes in taking. the drive | J a8 thie trees are fast being cut down, both for the purpose of clearing the lands for cultivation and also to sup- ply the demands for lumber, “To. thus preserve these tall and grand specimens of pine is too heavy an undertaking for the:city of Bem- 1dj or Beltrami county, and it is now hoped that the state can be interested to the extent that it will purchase these tracts of pine lands and desig- nate them as. state parks, all sur- rounding a beautiful body of water. We would like to see this done by the state of Minnesota, for the gen- erations now grawing up and those to come will greatly appreciate such action and expenditure on their part. Those who have taken this beautiful drive are. impressed with the gran- deur of the scenery and feel that the ‘wish of the people of Bemidji for the preservance of the land in its wild and mmu-n] state 18 most worthy and should recelve consideration ‘from the people of the entire state. Some Good Roads Work “The fact that autoists are able to drive around Lake Bemidji is jargely due to the work and effort of the auto club of that city. Over one-half of the road was built and paid for by the club, a great deal of graveling being necessary, bridges had to be built and culverts installed. It was 2 heavy undertaking for the club but the autoists contributed liberally and raised sums by “tag days,” and in other ways which.were spent on the road. The work is not yet completed jbut in another year will be in fine condition. The roads are quite sandy and instead of the rain making them hard to travel it only improves them. This drive, without a question, surpasses any in the west for gran- deur and beauty of scenery. Inspected Lumber Mill “As the party was nearing the city on the return trip, a stop was made at the largest of the lumber mills on Lake Bemidji, and an opportunity given them to inspect the plant while in full operation at night. It was a most interesting sight, especially to plant before. “A brief visit to the Commercial club rooms where an opportunity was given the visitors to meet many of the business men of Bemidji, com- pleted the day’s program. The visit- ing party was driven to the train when they departed for their homes The day is one that will be long re- membered by those in the party, for the welcome extended by the people of Bemidji was genuine and the en- tertainment provided most hospitable. “While we have not viewed the other sites offered for the new Nor- mal school, yet it-is our opinion as well as that of all those in Wednes- day’s party, that the commission acted wisely and conscientiously in mak- ing the selection they did.

Thief River Falls, Minn., Aug. 22. —One person was killed, n score jin- Jured and several buildings desu'fiyed by a cyclone which swept north of here. As far as known an eleven-year-old 8on of A. F. Anderson was the only one killed. Numerous cattle were killed and crops damaged. The storm was one of the most severe that has ever struck this dis- trict. From a point six miles west of Greenbush village and forty miles north of here the storm traversed a path two miles wide and eight miles long in a southeasterly direction. The small town of Leo was hit and more than half the buildings in the town destroyed or carried from their foundations. The heaviest rain of the season followed the twister. Reports from other towns in the Red River valley indicate that a heavy rain and electrical storm was general. Harry’s Opinion. 'The teacher was giving a test on the value of foreign money in America.
