The cry for pure milk is answered in

Van Camps Milk is eyerywhere-milll

and the most economical.
When you use impure milk-or half
rich milk-you are doing SO without ne
cessity. You simply don't know.
Judge by these facts if Van Camps is
good milk Then judge by the milk itself.
Why, not home in your city would
use milkman's milk if they knew the truth
about it-also the truth about Van

For Children

The ablest physicians, again and again.
have passed on Van Camps Milk.
They could find no other milk SO safe
-nonc SO good. Nor can you.
Children can drink Van Camps with
out a thought of germ infection. Its very
purity makes it doubly delicious.
And children like the slight almond
flavor, due to sterilization.
You don't let your children eat raw
meat Don't let them drink raw milk.
Van Camps Milk comes in and TO-

and you will want it always. Then it is

Naval Officers Experts in Diplomacy

The story Is that the Relief has been
burdened with woe ever since the
cruise began, and that every officer of
the navy, except the doctors, is
tickled to death that this is so. The
line officers who didn't approve having
a doctor as their commander have
found many ways, the story goes. of
making life miserable to the men In
charge of the hospital ship. or course
the suggestion OF service conspiracy
TO this end would be resented and
could not be proven. but there is.
sub rosa intimation that something
very like a cabal has been formed
with the purpose OF proving how much

a ship.

In particular was to blame. II is
limited that when the fleet returns sug-
gestlons win be made in many quar-
ters that the cruise has demonstrated
that nobody is competent to manage
a war vessel who Is not an accredited
officer OF the navy. In other words
that the experience OF the Relief. with

Ethel Roosevelt Mourns Loss of Lemon

every district in the precinct, and by
nightfall there was not a dog on the
streets of Washington. In the collec.
ton held for identification was every
species OF canine from NANCY mastiff
to flea-bitten fee. but none answered
to the name OF Lemon.
Various motives. II a dog may have

abrupt departure from the Roosevelt
household. He might have had a
vision of a small bull pup swinging to
the port side OF lion in the wilds of
Africa. and his masters voice shout.

Again, he might have dreaded the
time when he would reach the proper
age to be harnessed to one OF Master
Arches carts. or be matched In a
main with the household cat, or wear
an empty can attached to his tail.
However, Lemons motive for running
away is purely speculative. for It is
not given In the police report, and his
mistress "can attribute no cause for
the rash act"

BREEDING UP IS CHEAPEST.
No Money In Raising Scrub Stock
Get Pure-Bred Bull.

The farmer who intends to secure a
herd OF pure-bred cattle will find It
cheaper to breed up than to buy pure.
bred stock. This is especially true II
he is preparing to raise cattle for the
purpose of making beef. II he buys
all pure-bred stock. the investment
will be so heavy that he cannot afford
to sell the progeny for the block, but
will feel constrained TO go into the
business OF raising breeding cattle. for
which he may not have taste and
adaptability
Good females Of pure-bred beef stock
bring high prices and he would need a
considerable number of pure-bred cows
TO make good start. But with a
pure-bred bull he can in a few years
have a herd of COWS that will make IL
possible to market beeves of high
grade-market toppers. For the beef
maker then. this is about the only
course possible.
In selecting herd OF cows for
breeding up, the Indiana Farmer sug-
gests that man should try TO get ami
mails in keeping with the breed OF the
bull he intends to buy. Thus, II he is
going to use pure-bred Shorthorn
bull. he should find COWS having the
general conformation OF the Short
horns. He will find 1t easy to secure
good animals having In them consider.
able Shorthorn blood, though these
animals would have to be regarded in
his breeding operations as without any
pure blood, simply because the buyer
would not generally know how much
Shorthorn blood such animals con.
tanned.
The same is true In the use OF pure.
bred bulls of any breed. II man
buys a Hereford bull he should hunt
up cows having some OF the general
conformation OF Herefords and use
these for his breeding operations. II
such animals cannot be secured in his
own vicinity he can generally find
