WAR CREATES DIG DEMAND
FOR AMERICAN CHEESE
Washington, April 14.—The per
capita consumption of cheese in the
United States in 1910 was 3.8 pounds.
This has increased to 4 pounds in the
last five years, acording to an estimate
of the Department of Commerce. With
the war abroad, the export of American
cheese has increased and the importa
tion of foreign-made cheese has de
creased.
American cheese, of which the ex
ports had decreased from nearly 150,-
000,000 pounds in the fiscal year 1881
to less than 2,500,000 pounds in 1914,
is again finding its way to foreign
markets in rapidly increasing amounts.
The half-year ending with December
showed a total export of more than 2,-
500,000 pounds; January, 1915,
3,000,000 pounds, and February nearly
7,500,000 pounds, the aggregate for
eight months of the current fiscal year
being 13,000,000 pounds, or more
than in any fiscal year since 1907.
England is now and for many years
has been the largest foreign market for
American cheese.

! Combing Won't Rid
Hair Of Dandruff j
The only sure way to get rid of dan
druff is to dissolve it, then you destroy
it entirely. To do this, get about four
ounces of ordinary liquid arvon; apply
it at night when retiring; use enough
to moisten the scalp and rub it in gently
with the finger tips.
Do this to-night, and by morning,
most if not all, of your dandruff will
be gone, and three or four more appli
cations will completely dissolve and en
tirely destroy every single sign and
trace of it, no matter how much dan
druff you may have.
You will find, too, that all itching
and digging of the scalp will stop at
once, and your hair will be fluffy,
lustrous, glossy, silky and soft, and
look and feel a hundred times better.
You can get liquid arvon at any drug
store. It is inexpensive and never fails i
to do the work.—Adv.
This Frees Tour Skin
From Hair or Fuss
(Toilet Tips)
The method here suggested for the
removal of superfluous hair is quick and
certain and unless the growth is ex
tremely stubborn, a single application
does the work. Make a stiff paste with
some powdered delatone and water; ap
ply this to the hairy surface and after
'about 2 minutes rub it off, wash the
skin , and the hairs are gone. To avoid
disappointment, be sure your druggist
sells you delatone —Adv.
