Are You Giving
Your Live Stock
a Fair Deal ?
You like a little salt and pep
per—u
little mustard—a little
lemon extract—a little thin and
thut to flavor your grub. Your
cow, your steer, your hog under
natural conditions would have a
chance to get a bite of this, a bite
of that and a bite of the other
thing and so get a variety in its
feed. But under the unnatural
condition in ¿(which you keep
them, they get every day about
the aauie sort of stuff to eat. A h
a natural conseauetice 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.
Watkins' Stock Tonic
Is a scientific preparation which
not only improves the tlavor of
the feed you feed, but also sup
plies thst tonic element so needed
to make your live stock do their
best.
There is no longer any doubt
about the need of a tonic for the
modern domestic animal kept
under artificial conditions. Y'ou
must give them something to
help them digest their feed an"l
get the greatest good from it.
Watkins’ Stock Tonic supplies
thia need. It makes the animal
relish its feed more; it aids in
the digestion and assimilation
of the feed, and in addition to
that, it has a tonic effect upon
the whole system.
Your Hnimals need a tonic of
thia kind. Watkins' Stock Tonic
is not a secret preparation. We
tell you the actual me l eilli-nt«
that are used in it. You know
exactly what you are buying, and
pounu for pound it will go farther
■ nd do more good than any other
stock tonic or so called stock
food ever made.
The Watkins Man will be glad
to leave you a pail on trial,
backed by the Watkins guarantee,
with each $2.00 order or better.

They Cannot Form In th. Lin. of a

Coral reefs surround many of the is
lands in the Pacific. They protect tbe
lowlands from the washing of the
waves, and tbe still waters Inclosed by
them are the only harbors of refuge
for ships. Tbe reefs themselves fur
nish the greatest peril to navigation,
and If there were no Inlet through
which a vessel could enter their pro
tected circle they would be a danger
aud nothing else.
But almost every reef has such nn in
let It Is a necessary result of the laws
under which the forces of nature work.
To understnnd this we must see how
these reefs are formed.
Chemically the reef corals are almost
pure carbonate of lime, the substance
of ordinary limestone and marble The
reef grows as the shell of the oyater
or of uny other shellfish grows. It is
Itself the common and undivided sheil
of innumerable polypi, or minute in
sects. which are being reproduced and
are riving In successive generations.
These tiny beings get all their living
front the waters of the sea. It is from
this so:trc<> also that they derive the
salts of lime from which they secrete
the bony structure that remains after
the animal Is dead.
Tbe coral polypi cannot live In fresh
water Their food supply is brought
to them b.v the waves and currents of
the sea
As a result, it Is found that
