Purina Dairy Feed are getting.
The extra cost of this ideal ration is only
about one cent per cow per day which shows
a handsome margin of profit at today's
milk prices.
Even cows on test during heavy
milking periods keep in ideal condition
when fed PURINA DAIRY FEED because
this perfectly balanced ration supplies
all of the elements required for milk.

EX-KING DOES USEFUL WORK
Manuel of Portugal Now Director of
School for the Re-education of
Maimed Soldier*.
Royalty has suffered much tn the
present war, even at the hands of Its
friends. When the Interallied confer
ence in the interest of permanently
disabled soldiers was concluded in
Paris, a party of delegates journeyed
to England to Inspect the great schools
established there for the re-education
of men maimed in battle. One of these
schools In particular excited fhenisi
tors' admiration because of Its mar
velous equipment and seemingly per
fect management. This was all the
more remarkable because the director
of the school was a very young man.
So much Impressed were the visitors
that before leaving they waited upon
the youthful director and fairly show
ered him with praise.
"It Is both n great responsibility nnd
a high honor to you. str," said their
spokesman, a distinguished French sci
entist, "to linve been placed at your
age at the head of so Important a
school." 1
"I agree with you, Doctor ,
but In times past I have had occasion
to direct matters even more Important
than these," replied the youug man,
who was none other than the ex-King
Manuel of Portugal. .
Congress of Polish Technicians.
The Polfsh euglneers and technicians
now residing in Russia held a congress
at Moscow recently, at which 285 per
sons were present. The program cohr
stated of general discussions concern
ing the rehabilitation nnd development
of industry in Poland after the war.
also the organization of technical edu
cation. Special soctlons dealt with
architecture, mechanics, chemistry,
electricity, and economics.
It was decided to found >i Polish as
sociation of engineers and technicians
in Russia, with branches In the prin
cipal Industrial centers, and also to
.undertake the publication of a bi
weekly sheet that should become Hie
organ of the society. Among the reso
lutions adopted was one relating to the
future economic development of Po

New Hotel for Lima, Peru.
Th6 Congress of Peru by recent leg
islation has provided for an up to date
hotel In Lima, to be constructed under
the supervision of the national govern
ment of Peru and to cost not less than
?200.000 (973,000). The site set aside
for the hotel Is government property
located in the heart of the city and is
to be acquired by the company con
structing the hotel.
The need of a modern hotel In Lima
has been keenly felt by the travelers
for some tlrbe, says Commerce Reports.
During recent years the number of
commercial travelers and tourists vis
iting the west coast of South America
has more than doubled, and many of
these hare found It Inconvenient or
even impossible to remain longer than
a few days in Lima because of the lack
of adequate hotel accommodations.
"Besides stringing M.802 beans yes
terday (to get on the good side of the
cook) I loaded 2,20$ pounds of auto
mobiles on to vans." writes a young
soldier from Edmonton, who has only
recently "got across." "Those wefe
the exact figures for my share. Twenty
of us Were got together yesterday and
started loading cases of automobiles
onto trucks. Each case weighed 1.700
pounds, and we got 27 on altogether,
ubtrh took nine hours of bard labor
("hard" Is no name for It). The total
weight loaded, yon wtll see, was 46,000
pounds, which makes my share, as I
said before, I tugged and hauled for
all I H'W worth, and I haven't a sore
muscle today, so you set I am tn pretty
"tloo."

RED CROSS WAR FUND
DRIVE SET FOR1 MAY 20
In order not to detract even slightly
from the forthcoming Ldberty Ixian
campaign, the War Council of the
American Red Cross has postponed
the campaign to raise the second War
Relief fund of $100, #00,000 to the week
of May 20 from the week of May 6th,

nounced irt Washington today. ?
. This action Axes the date of the sec
ond Red Cross campaign eleven months
after the first, which waa started on
June 18, 1917. The War Council had
been appointed by President Wilson
only five weeks prior to the beginning
of this campaign, so that its first great
task was to provide means for carry
ing on relief work during the war on
a scale commensurate with the mili
tary operations.
More than $100,000,000 was contrib
uted In response to the first call for
financial aid' and contributions pins
Interest brought the total receipts
from the first drive up to $106,099,627.
Of this amount, "$17", 006,121 "WSS" re
funded to Red Cross Chapters for lo
cal relief work. Of the balance, $77,
7*21,918 has been appropriated, leaving
a. balance Of $10,371,217 available for
appropriation. France has received
appropriations amounting to more than
thirty millions. During the week pre
ceding Christmas the Red Cross con
ducted a membership drive which re
sulted In the enrollment of approxi
mately 22,000,000 new members. This
waa followed last month by a cam
paign conducted by the Junior mem
bership of the Red Cross which result
ed in the enrollment in the collateral
organization of practically all of the
school children In America.
