But under tlie unnatura condition in (which ycu keep them, they get every day about tlie same sort of stuff to eat. As a natural consequence they get “ off their feed." Even if they do not, their digestive organs need the tonic effect which comes from a variety of feeding stuffs. 111 An Actual Added Advantage never Watkins’ Stock Tonic We Is a scientific preparation which not only improves the ilavor of the feed you feed, but also sup plies that tonic element so needed to make your live stock do their best.

Tlie uil tank la a vessel whose cargo consists ot oil. which is carried in great tanks. Two dangers are ever present to al^ on board-namely, that the oil tuay heat aud explode. wliKtl means lhe Instil ul destruction of the ship, or that It may burst from the tanks, in which case the ship Is almost certain to be destroyed by tire. There is also tile remote danger ot tbe oil “fuming'* Wtieu tbe oil "fumes" the working of the ship lie conies almost Inqiossible Gn a "fum Ing" oil tank no one cun remain I m »I ow deck for more than ten minutes with out becoming overcome by the oil fumes, which are a hundred times more deadly to human life than coal gas. The most terrible tragedies of the ocean have occurred on board these death traps. A few years ago a Russian eil tank, the Omar, which sailed from Batum bound tor Bomlaiy with KJ.OOO gallons of oil on board, was sighted In tbe Pa 1 cific by a German tramp steamer nam I ed the Velter Fend. The Omar was flying signals of distress and when sighted was apparently completely dis abled. for she was making no bead way. The sea was quite calm, and the cap tab. of tbe Velter Fend approached within hailing distance of tbe disabled ship, but no reply came from her In response to bls hall. Then the • captain of the German tramp sent n trout to the silent ship, When the boat’s crew reached her decks they saw 1 tire men lying on tne deck, three of whom were dead. The other two were In a state of collapse, but alive. The mate of the German tramp, who was In charge ot the boat, at once guessed that the oil had "fnmed" on board the oil tank, probably at night, and that the two men In a state of collapse were probably the only sur vlvors of the disaster. Thia aubto quently turned out to be the case. Below the decks, which the crew of the German tramp penetrated with great difficulty and danger to them selves for the oil was still fuming, nix of the oil tank's crew were found dead In their bunks, where they hud tieeii suffocated by the fumes In tlielr sleep. Three of the crew had succeed, ed lii reaching the deck, but had died subsequently. The two survivors were the only two on disk when the fumes burst from the tanks and In their efforts to save the others had very nearly perished themselves. The crew of a Norwegian oil tank named the Helios had a terrible eX|a*- rieiice a few years ago In inid-Atlnn tic.

In place of loss, such kN* ure sometimes a gain to tbe «•■*. Tbe loss In lumber if cut within a fow years is small. aDd tbe removal st aa- derbrusb reduces tbe cost of laaaMt- ing. That n forest Ore could in say way I m » h henetit and not an injury seem.-« so novel that some proof la necessary. The statement has been made that more timber is destroyed by fire every year than Is converted into lumber. As a matter of fact, the report of tbe forest service declares the actual fire Iona In national reserves for the last three years has amounted to only one- tenth of 1 |H*r cent. From some fifty lumber companies the highest admit ted loss from fire Is 2 per cent in twen ty years. Another company estimates its tire loss for fifty two years at 1 per cent, and another, during sixty, has bad au annual loss of one-sixteenth of I pet cent. Twenty-eight companies re- port their loss since organization as "hardly worth mentioning.** Tbe point of these reports, so sur prising to those unacquainted with tbe lumber business Is that the fires, while they kill the trees, do not consume the trunk. The less severe fires do not uecessarily kill the trees. Worse fires do this by burning the underbrush around the trees and perhaps the tops of the trees. But the trunk of the tree, the log from which tbe boards are to be cut. is seldom touched. Tbe killed timber makes as good lumber as tbe other, tbe only difference being that It Is necessary to cut it within a limited time. White pine or hemlock in tbe upper Mississippi valley must be cut tbe first or tbe second winter following tbe fire or worms will injure tbe lumber. The two year period applies in tbe “inland empire” and to tbe hemlock on the slopes of the Cascades. Western spruce need not be cut for three years and western fir for four years. Bed cedar bas no limit, and trees burned fifty years ago are now being turned into shingles.— Jonas Howard In Chi- cage Tribune.
