Queen Alexandra has lately taken a renewed interest in her famous model dairy at Sandringham, and visits it every day. The dairy is not, as many people imagine, merely a toy. It was built on the lines of the dairies of Denmark, Queen Alexandra’s old home, and supplies the whole of the butter used by the Royal households. In addition to this hampers of butter, eggs, cream and cheese are often sent from the dairy to the Princess who are away at college or school. A physician has discovered that the air of the Egqyptian desert is about as free'from hateerial life as the Polar regions or the high seas, and an excellent place for people suffering from rheumatism or-consumption to take up their abode. “Poultry should always be placed in front of the carver with the head of the bird-to the left,'-’ says an exchange. It omits to remark that the carver can, however, with a little pratciee, soon learn to carve poultry behind him with his head to the right.
