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.

Wtefa They Cannot Form In th. Lin. of a Fresh Water Flow. 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 directly op,Hisite the mouth of it stream from the island tbe reef does not grow.
