CORE OF THE EARTH.
Il May Be q Mass Of Steel Some $3.50
Miles In Diameter.


Various conjectures have been made
from time to time by biologists as to
the possible condition Of the center OF
the earth. One Of the most popular
impressions seems to be that the
earth's center, or core, Is a flaming
furnace. At a meeting Of the Seis'
biological association at The Hague
Professor Weichert asserted that bis
studies Of the varying velocity Of
earthquake tremors passing through
the interior Of the globe have led him
to the conclusion that the earth con-
sfsts Of a central core Of iron or steel.
about $3.50 miles in diameter, sur
rounded with a stony shell $50 miles
In thickness. Between the outer solid
rind and the inner layer Of rock. cover
ing the metallic core, he thinks there
is a layer Of liquid or plastic material,
lying a little less than twenty miles
below the surface Of the earth.
Men sometimes dream Of enormous
wealth stored deep in the earth below
the reach of miners, but experts now
aver that there is little or no ground
to believe that any valuable metallic
deposits lie very deep in the earth's
crust regardless Of Professor Wei
chert's beliefs to the contrary. Such
deposits, it is said. are made by under.
ground waters, and owing to the pres
sure on the rocks at great depths the
waters are confined to a shell near the
surface. With few exceptions ore de-
posits become too lean to repay work
ing below 5000 feet. Nine mines in
ten, taking the world as whole. are
poorer in the second thousand feet
than in the first thousand. and poorer
yet in the third thousand than in the
secoua.-Neu York World.

mittee Decides Not to Hale George
w. Perkins Before Bar of the House.
Washington, Aug. 10.-After the
steel probe committee decided that
George w. Perkins, director of the
United States Steel corporation and
former partner in J. P. Morgan & Co.,
should not be ordered before the bar
Of the house by the house committee
of inquiry into the affairs of the steel
corporation, because he refused to an
swer questions regarding his personal
campaign contributions, a plan was
agreed upon as to just what questions
regarding campaign contributions
should be asked, and 1t was under
stood that Richard Lindabury, counsel
for the steel corporation, would de-
clare that he knew of one contribution
Of $4,000 made by that corporation to
campaign fund in 1904. This he
afterward stated before the commit
tee and thereupon the political phase
of the inquiry apparently was dropped
During the noon recess Representa-
tives Stanley, Sterling and Littleton
called on President Taft at the White
House and gained his permission for
the expert of the steel committee to
have access to the information, as yet
not made public, gathered by the bu-
reau Of corporations regarding the
steel corporation.
Herbert Knox Smith, commissioner
of corporations, will cooperate with
the committee representative and if
he finds anything of interest to the
committee which he thinks should not
be disclosed the president will act as
arbiter as to it's release
Discontinues Harvester Probe.
At the close Of the session Chairman
Stanley announced that the commit
tee had determined not to probe fur
Their into the affairs of the Interna-
tional Harvester company and it's rela-
lions with the steel trust at this time,
because he had been reliably informed
that the department of justice intend
ed to take action along that line.
Following the disposition of the
campaign question Representative
Beall led Mr.. Perkins again into the
financial panic and the Tennessee
Coal and Iron deal, bringing up
eventually the bond conversion trans.
action by the steel corporation.
MT. Perkins said that he talked to
Mr.. Stone frequently during the panic,
but that he had attempted to justify
anything that he had not done, he
said, was impossible.
While Mr.. Beall questioned Mr.. Per
kins again concerning the bond con

and with success. The older breeder by
his experience attends to the many
small details the beginner is prone to
overlook, not Intentionally, but from lack
of experience.
So, in trying to obtain winter eggs
from the flock, keep in mind that the
pullets should not be overcrowded, should
be wen housed and properly fed. From
three to four square feet of floor space
should be allowed for each bird. The
house, if possible, should face the south,
or 10 degrees east of south, and should
be high enough in front to allow the
winter sun to penetrate to the rear sill
of the same. The house should be at
least IL TO IL feet deep, so that no drafts
viii strike the fowls when the windows
are open, and they should be open at an
times during clear weather. The win
doys should be covered with muslin, thus
insuring plenty of ventilation when
closed, which should only be in cold
weather at night, or during hard, beat
ing rains or SHOWS. II should be re-
membered that dampness is one Of the
great evils the poultry raiser has to con-
tend with, and is the cause of many ills
in poultry. This will not happen in a
properly constructed poultry-house, with
a clean litter Of straw that helps absorb
the moisture.
In feeds, for the morning and even
ing grain feeds, good clean wheat, corn,
oats and barley are good, feeding from
-four to ak quarts to each 100 fowls. In
addition to this must be fed the concen
trated feeds, the real egg maker, which
should be fed in hopper and can be
made up Of the following; 200 pounds
Of grain, 100 pounds Of middlings or
shorts, 100 pounds Of ground alfalfa meal
and 100 pounds of ground oats; Is per
cent. of good beef scrap should be added
to the mash that analyses 80 per cent.
of protein and, with good grit, oyster
shell and charcoal, with fresh water, the
poultry raiser should obtain eggs and
plenty of them--if the fowls have been
properly grown, and Matched at the right
season of the year One could hardly
expect a flock Matched in June or july
to become winter layers, as cold weather
comes on before they are fully matured,
and checks egg development, the feed
going to maintain body heat and deyel-
oping, inste. a of manufacturing eggs.

tons.
AT this time of the year care should
be exercised in housing the pullets that
are to be the wintec layers One great
mistake many make is in undertaking
and feeding improper food. Growing
fowls cannot be expected to do their best
in healthy development, if not fed prop
erly and given plenty of feed. The the
DRY that one can overfeed the growing
pullets has been exploded, and many n
flock has been retarded by undertaking
In some cases, they are fed enough, but
not of the proper kind to produce the
best results, says the Philadelphia Rec
ord
To get the flock as a whole in laying
condition in the time required by the
breed or variety, the fowls must he prop
erly grown from chielShood 1t should be
remembered that every check the flock
gets in poor feeding or housing will take
just that much longer for maadred devel-
opment. Thus Leghorns that should be
laying as a flock between five and six
months from shell, if not properly
grown, would be from two to four weeks
later, or longer, according to the check,
or perhaps several checks received from
chickhood up. The up-to-date poultry
raiser realizes through experience that
his flock must have steady growth, and
leaves no stone unturned to obtain re-
suits by careful handling. The flock
is well housed, well fed and never over
crowded.
The beginner, through insxperienee,
cannot always successfully do Just the
things the other breeder sometimes does

AMUSEMENT MITES.
Through Fire and Smoke" Selig Fire
Drama That Is Exceedingly Real.

Tom Gaylor, handsome fireman,
played by Mr.. Santschi, and Betty st.
Claire, a pretty factory girl, played by
Miss Harte, are engaged to be married
and each morning they exchange conf
denees before going their separate ways
to enter on the days work. One of these
mornings, Betty meets Herbert Crane
tplayed by Mr.. Rawlinsonl who is the
manager Of her department in the fac
tory. He accompanies her 10 the fac
tory and the girls heart dances with ex-
ultation as he appears on the floor with
her in sight of the other girls.
Herbert is seen lingering moment be.
side Betty's machine on the factory
floor where hundreds OF girls are EN-
ployed making overalls. As he is about
to leave, he accidentally brushes against
newly painted can which leaves its
traces on his otherwise immaculate coat.
He becomes very angry at this and inn
mediately goes TO the storeroom TO re-
move the spots with gasoline. He lights
the gas, but has no more than begun
his task, when he is called outside to
settle some complaint. The uncorked
bottle is left standing under the gas
jet.
Then comes the inevitable explosion
and we see the window glass break and
doors crash from their castings, In a
moment the big room is filled with stiff
ling smoke, pandemonium reigns SUI
preme, and the terrified girls rush mad
" for the elevator and stairways. Aft
-, 81. Cal IN. md
the windows offer the only possible
chance for escape. Already the stair
way and elevator shaft are one seeth-
ing mass of flames land we watch one
girl after another drop from sight to
serious injury or certain death.
Toms engine house has received the
first alarm, and we see the expression
ON his face as he realizes that Betty's
life is in danger. We see the firemen
slide down the poles, jump into their
coats the hitchup and within q few
seconds they are out of their barn and
racing madly toward the scene of ac-
ton.
Again our scene changes back to the
panic stricken girls in the blazing fac
tory. Betty has found rope and rushes
toward one of the windows to effect her
escape but Herbert proves himself a
yellow eur by wrenehing the rope from
the girls hands in order to save his own
skin BY this time Tom has arrived
and in jiffy ladder run up TO the
windows His position is indeed peril
Gus, but he gamely climbs the ladder,
fights his way through the flame and
smoke and returns with his loved one in
bis arms.
The principal scenes in this picture
were secured during the great Byrne
building fire in Los Angeles recently
The Selig company were on hand with
their corps OF actors and camera men,
as soon as the fire department itself
arrived upon the scene. The Selig com
pany had an arrangement with the fire
department whereby they were allowed
to work in the very midst Of the conilag-
ration, and Mr.. Santschi and Miss Harte
risked their lives TO secure the great
rescue scene which isa thrilling feature
of this reel. 1t will be many years be-
fore fire picture equal to this one will
be secured. It's at Dreamland.

MOTHER WAS WISE
Built Up Boys Strength Instead of Civ
ing Cough Syrup.

A lingering cough is a sure sign Of
weakness in child, and the sensible
thing is to build up the system. Then
the cough will disappear.
But If the child has no appetite, then
it needs Vinol, which has not particle
of the nasty, greasy smell and taste that
make children hate cod liver oil. Vinol
is so pleasant they like to take it, and
it builds them up wonderfully.
Mrs. r. INA of New York City says;
my little boy had very bad cough
for two months. / did not like to give
him cough syrups, for many of them are
not good for children. But / did give
him your delicious cod liver and iron
remedy, Vinol, and one bottle caused hiu
cough to disappear entirely and restored
him to health"
We guarantee that Vinol will build up
and strengthen weak, pale children and
all rundown persons Of every age. If it
does not do all we claim, we give back
your money. Red Cross Pharmacy, Burt
