tom. The user places 1T in the water and
puts his face into the top of it. This
permits him to see the formations ON the

When the undressed diver begins oper-
ations at the commencement of a fishing
season he bleeds at the nose and ears
when ne comes from the water. The I'M
initiated regard this as a terrible thing,
but no experienced diver will begin regu-
lar operations until this bleeding sets IN,
for it Is taken as a sure sign that the
diver is fit, and its absence means that
he is not in diving trim. After the first
few dives the bleeding stops.
The sponge diver may work in Is
fathoms of water, while eight fathoms
would crush the unframed diver TO
death. The Grecian divers learn to dive
almost as soon as they learn TO walk.
The prodigality that characterizes the
waste OF the sponge resources is viewed
with much concern by the bureau of
fisheries 1t is said that thousands of
commercially worthless small sponges
are gathered and thrown away; and that
if such sponges were permitted to stay
only six months longer they would add
a full 100000 to the total value of the
annual output of the Florida fisheries, in
one case a dealer stated that some fishing
men had brought him a lot of sponges
for which he paid only So, and that if
they had been left only six months

EXPERIMENTS CONDUCTED To PREVENT
DEPLETION Of SPONGE FISHERIES

divers of that region have transferred
their activities to the Florida waters.
There the wanton waste that has
marked the fisheries has been almost as
reckless OF the future as was the use
of gas in the Indiana towns where it
was found cheaper to burn the street
h~hts all day than to employ a man to
turn them out.
Artificial Propagation.
There are two ways by which the
sponge may be propagated artificialIy.
One method is to take a large sponge.
cut it up into sections, with care that
part of the lining membrane adheres to
each section, and then fasten it to a wire
and place it out In free sea water Each
piece, II the bed is properly protected,
will grow TO maturity IN about four
years.
The other method is to take the mill
ions of tiny eggs found in the sponges
In autumn, and to plant them where
the chances for growth are good. The
latter method, it is hoped by the propa-
gators, may yet prove commercially feas-
ible. If 50 it will save the Florida
sponge fisheries.
What We know as a sponge Is no more
like the living sponge than the skeleton
of horse is like the living animal. In
1dcI, our DdInCHD sponge Is mourning more
than the deserted city of some millions
of little gelatinous animals that once
inhabited it. Huxley beautifully sex
pressed it when he said that the sponge
we know once was the walled-up city of
myriad tiny creatures, so grouped along
roads and streets that each one could
get his daily bread from the water as it
hurried by him.
Living Sponges.
There are Two canals in the structure
of living sponge, the one leading IN
and the other out, with ramifying small
er canals all through the structure,
starting and ending in these two trunk
lines. At the entrance to the one canal
and, more sparsely, throughout its
course, there are little hairy-like fila
ments which wave like the heads OF
waving grain in a May breeze. They al
ways wave the water inward. and give

Pacific Sponge.
In the waters of the Pacific there is a
sponge which serves in lieu of American
asbestos 1t is one of the most beautiful
OF all SpOnges. 1t has a sort of bony
frame that viii not break if it falls on
a tide floor, but which will be crushed
to smithereens if stepped on This frame
is encased by a covering of long fiber
which is used 10 make a non-heat con-
Quoting material which is used as sub
stitute for asbestos.
Sponges have enemies as we'll as other
animals, and they try as best they can
to protect themselves One of these
parasites is a long sea worm which gets
into the outward flowing canals of the
sponge. 1t makes for itself a kind of
paper tube in which to live, the walls
of the tube being very thin, and re-
sembling paper when dried. 1t gets into
the sponge by boring up through the
base attached to rock Some OF them
measure as much as two feet long, and
almost dam up the outgoing canals.
Information Needed.
With all that is known about the
sponge there Is still much information
that is wanting. How TO handle them so
as TO propagate them in other waters
than those in which they grow is a
problem more than one government
would like 10 solve IF this could be

Every housewife should realize the
possibilities Of salt as a cleaner. In

For polishing mirrors nothing can

Ing 1t the glass must be wet with

with a damp newspaper. h final
rubbing may be done with dry news
papers or with a channels skin.
A tablespoonful Of coarse salt. a
teaspoonful of ammonia and a pint Of
hot water mixed and kept for rinsing
decanters and carafes will make them
as bright as new.
Silver ~discolored either by egg or
other use will respond at ono to a

Salt and vinegar combined will
usually restore polish to brass and
copper, and salt is a wonderful reno

have been dulled with hot dishes. To
brighten such spots cover the gray
portions with salt. which is then wet
with olive oil, all of the latter being
poured on that the salt will absorb.
This should stand for "a hours, when
it should be removed and the surface
rubbed with a soft cloth. If all gray
ness has not disappeared, repeat the

For removing discolorations of fruit
from teeth or hands salt is excellent.

When taken off the pastures in late

COMFORT FOR
FARM STOCK
Should Be Fed at Regular Times
and Never Roughly Handled
by Being Chased by Dos
or Left In Cold.

(By A. D. WILSON. University Farm. St.
Paul. Mimi
One of our good dairy farmers. liv-
ing in Carlton county, who is also a
Farmers Institute lecturer. Mr.. F. B.
McLeran, in talking or Care Of
Dairy Cattle" always emphasizes the
Importance of making the stock COM
Portable. He says that If they are
made uncomfortable by being fed at
irregular times, so that they spend a
great deal Of their time expecting to
be fed, the discomfort shows in lower
production. If they are made un-
comfortable by having a poor bed, by
being roughly handled, by having a
dog set on them. or by being left out
In the cold or allowed to go thirsty,
these conditions result in decreased
production. He emphasizes the fact
that n Of the great advantages Of
weighing the milk every day. from
each COW. is that it gives one a quick
check on any condition that brings
about discomfort to his animals. If
any COW shows a dropping off Of her
milk flow, as a rule a little observa-
ton WI show that she has been made
uncomfortable in some of the wars
mentioned above; and, knowing these
facts, the farmer is able to check
these unfavorable conditions quickly.
One Of the points that Mr.. McLeran
especially emphasizes is the import.
ance OF not allowing the COWS to st,y
out in the winter when they are un-
comfortable. He states that a good
way to determine this is to take of
your coat and - out in the yard with
the cows. stand around and act lust
as the COW do. When you begin to
feel uncomfortable and feel like going
into the house. put the cows in the
barn.

DOCTORS ADVISED OPERATION.
DECIDED TO TRY GREAT

your Swamp-Root did for me, believing
that my testimony may DO some other suf-
terlng person a great deal Of good.
About ok years ago, I was dangerously
Ill. consulted three doctors, all Of whom
said l had kidney trouble. Ono Of tho
doctors analysed my urine and reported
that I had gravel, and further said that
in order to regain my health and life. an
operation would DO necessary. I did not
want to be operated on Is I was afraid
that I would not recover. Someone told
me Of Dr.. K1mer's Swamp-Root and said
it was . reliable medicine for kidney
trouble, 90 I decided to try it and went
to Mr.. Rose, the druggist, at 800 Central
Ave, Minneapolis, and bought q bottle,
took it, noticed results and continued
taking it until I was entirely cured.
Having been free from any kidney
trouble for over six years, I consider that
I am absolutely cured and know that
Swamp-Root has the credit.
I never fail to tell my friends about
your remedy, as I believe it is the best of
its kind. Your U & O Ointment il also
