Where the Dirt Comes From. • Maob of the dirt in milk is the result of allowing oows to wade knee-deep in the mad and manure in a dirty barn. yard. It is difiioult to clean this dirt off and usually it Is allowed to dry on and particles drop into the pail while oows are bainlr milked. Barnyards in which dairy cattle are kept should be well - drained and graded np with cinders or gravel. Muoh of the bad flavor of milk is doe to tbe feeding of turnips and other im- proper food, but not a Attie of it is the remit of excessive feeding of suitable food nub as ensilage, which is so relish- ed by cattle. An overdose of anything is always bad. Absolute cleanliness is the first mini - site in the making of good butter. Sane tary surroundings come next, and right temperature third Make Each Animal Worth "TfIE EEL" 2:0'4 Largest Winner of any pacer on Grand Circuit, '08 25% Over Its Coif On Y3 of a Cent a Day Nobody ever heard of "stock food" curing the bots or colic, making hens lay in winter, increasing the yield of milk five pounds per cow a day, or restoring run-down animals to plumpness and Vigor. When you feed stock food" to your cow, horse, swine or poultry, you are merely feeding them what you are growing on your own farm. Your animals do need not more feed, but something to help their bodies get alt the good out of the feed you give them so they can get fat and stay fat all year round; also to prevent disease, cure disease and keep them up to the best possible condition. No "stock food" can do all these things. ROYAL PURPLE STOCK SPECIFIC can and docs. It is Nota "Stock food" But a "Conditioner" ROYAL PURPLE STOCK SPECIFIC contains no grain, nor farm products. It increases yield of milk from three to five pounds per cow per day before the Specific has been used two weeks. It makes the milk richer and adds flesh faster than any other preparation known. Young calves fed with ROYAL PURPLE are as large at six weeks old as they would be when • fed with ordinary materials at ten weeks. ROYAL PURPLE STOCK SPECIFIC builds up rundown animals and restores them to plumpness almost magically. Cures botst colic, worms, skin diseases and debilityermanently. Dan MaEwan,the horseman, says: I have used ROYAL PURPLE STOCKSPECIFICpersistently in the feeding of 'The Eel,' 2.021., largest winner of any pacer on Grand Circuit in 1908, and 'Henry Winters,' 2.09i, brother of 'Allen Winters,' winner of $36,000 in trotting stakes in 1908. These horses have never been off their feed since I commenced using Royal Purple Specific almost a year ago, and 1 will always have it in my stables." oval Pur 1 STOCK AND POULTRY SPECIFICS One 50c. package of ROYAL PURPLE STOCK SPECIFIC wilt last one animal seventy days. which is a little over two-thirds of a cent a da Most stock foods in fiftycent packages last but fifty days and are given three times a day• 2OYAL PURPLE STOCK SPECIFIC is given but once a day, and lasts half again as long A 81.50_pail containing four times the amount of the fifty cent,package will last 280days.

Beerbohm Tree, the English actor, had a comical experience on his first appearance as the corpulent Falstaff. In the last act he had arranged that• Falstaff, disconcerted by gibes and buffets of the fairies in Windsor for. est, should make one herculean effort to climb the oak tree. The pegs that were to serve as supports for that tree were always conspicuous by their ab- sonce. On the morning before the per- formance Mr. Tree was told they should positively be fixed on the tree. The morning came, but with it no pegs. Eloquence was stilled; even invective faltered. IIe pointed to the tree and with the calm of despair blurted out to the defaulter, "No pegs!" Such an ejaculation, spoken more in sorrow than in anger, would, be hoped, appeal to that last remnant of con- science which even the papier macho bosom of a property man might be supposed to retain. In the evening there was a dress rehearsal, but still no pegs could be seen. Mr. Tree's forth quivered -beneath the padding - with pontup emotions, and in a torrent of passion and a voice shaken by right- eous wrath he exclaimed: , "Where are those pegs?" "Pegs -pegs!" exclaimed the proper• ty master, with exasperating affability. "Why, guv'nor, what was your words to me this morning? `No pegs.' And there ain't none." -London Tit -Bits. WATER EXPERTS. Feats of Diving That Are Performed by Swedish Swimmers. The Swedes delight in "combination diving," and two men will perform many clever feats together. One of the most grotesque of these is when one man stands upright on a spring- board and tightly clasps another man's body round the waist, holding him head downward and putting his own head through the man's Legs. When the upright man springs from tbe board he throws his legs into the air so that the two men, clasping each oth- er tightly round the waist, turn a som- ersault, and when they reach the wa- ter the man who started upside down arrives feet foremost. The handspring dive is a very effec- tive specialty of Swedish swimmers. The performer takes off from the div- ing iving board with hands instead of feet, turning his body in order to descend feet foremost or somersaulting to ar- rive head downward. Very graceful also is the back dive, in which the spring is made backward, the body turning toward the spring- board. • trouble somersault dives are made from platforms thirty to fifty feet high, the diver making two turns in the air and entering the water feet foremost. -London Saturday Review. An Effective Alarm. Flannigan had been discharged from the artillery and Went to live in a cot- tage In his uative village. One day he left on a Week's visit to some distant relatives, and a day later the village constable was standing at his door when he heard the sudden boom of the rusty cannon Flannigan had mounter* on his front hedge. An instant later a brick whizzed past the constable's ear and smashed his door to smithereens. . The indignant officer, followed by the populace, rushed to Flannigan's cottage and found it still tenantless, but showing signs of recent burgling, When Flannigan returned the next week he heard the news and was de- lighted. "01 prepared .for burglars afore 01 whit away," he said, "by thrainin' the gun ou yet front doer, constable, and eonnieting It by secret wires to the debt's and windies and loading it wid a brick„ An' it hit tho door slap in the middle? lledad, 01 wasn't a gun - layer in the artillery for nothiu'1"-• rearson'fl Weekly. Bismarck on the Throne of France. Bismarck on the throne of France! Bismarck was once spoken of in that connection, and by Napoleon too! It was during the detention of the de- throned emperor at Wilhelmshohe in 1871, when Napoleon and some mem- bers of his staff were discussing the probability of Napoleon reascending the French throne and news of the de, - tugs of the commune was brought in. "Horrible -too horrible!" exclaimed le petit empereur. And then after n long silence he re- sumed, "1 know a man who if on the French throne would be master of Germany in six months." "His name, sire?" asked his nephew. Prince Murat. "Bismarck," replied the emperor as he turned on his heel. A Curious Barometer. A curious barometer is said to be used by the remnant of the Arauca- nian race which inhabits the southern- most province of Chile. It consists of the castoff shell of a crab. The dead shell is white in fair, dry weather. but the approach of a moist atmosptic•'re Is indicated by the appearance of small red spots. As the moisture in the air increases the shell becomes entirely red and remains so throughout the rainy season. Iridium. Iridium is a hard, brittle, silver white metallic element belonging to the platinum group, discovered by Tennant In 1803, sometimes found native and nearly pure, but generally combined with osmium. It is, with the exception of osmium, the heaviest metal known and is used for pen noiuts, contact points in telegraphy and points of scientific implements liable to wear. Its specific gravity is 22.4. 'The Heat of Lava. The lava streams from the eruption of Vesuvius in 1858 were so hot twelve years later that steam issued from their cracks and crevices. Those that flowed from Etna in 1787 were found to be steaming hot just below ins crust as late as 1840. The vol. enno Jorullo, in Mexico, poured forth in 1759 lava that eighty-seven years later gave off columns of steaming vapor. In. 1780 it was found that a stick thrlittt into the crevices instant- ly ignited, although no discomfort was experienced in walking -en the hardened crust. IN PROSPECT.
