keepers Convention, held at Lancing,
Michigan, in March last, we CLEAN the
following points
|. A swarm of bees should be provid-
ed with 20 to % lbs. Of honey if winter
ed into special depository, aad 25 to 80
lbs, if wintered on their summer stands.
2. Remove the surplus honey boxes at
the first frost.
3. Weigh an empty hive, allow ten
pounds for weight of bees, comb and bee
bread, and the first cool day weigh each
swarm. marking net weight of honey on
a corner of the box
4. Equalize the honey in the movable
frame hives. and in the other hives, and
feed the light ones until they accumulate
the requisite weight of honey. They
may be fed with syrup of clarified sugar,
but not from copper or brass vessels.
5. Double up small swarms and those
destitute of queens no two large swa1ms
should be put together.
6. Remove them to winter quarters

SAVING FODDER.

In many localities the drouth has made
short crop of hay, and though of cx-
cellent quality, it will not suffice to carry
the ordinary stock of the farm through
the coming winter. All of the substitutes
ever used for good hay will be wanted,
and it becoms farmers to make the most
of them. Dat and wheat straw that are
often allowed to rot upon the ground, or
are used for bedding, make a very good
fodder, and should be carefully stacked
or stored in the barn at he time of thresh-
ing. IF cut and mixed with corn meal
or with wheat braa, cattle will thrive upon
the feed as well as upon good hay. Those
that have sowed corn fodder abundantly,
have good substitute for hay. Save
what is left from the tall feeding. Make
the most of the fodder from the corn
field, which is often damaged from care
less stacking. 1t is not yet toe late to
cut salt grass aud bog meadows, that are
often neglected from the abundance of
other feed. To be sure there is not much
nourishment in these grasses, but there
is some, and, when ruI through the cut
ter and mixed with meal or roots, they
serve good purpose. Carefully store
the turnips that have been sown between
the corn rows, or by themselves. 1t fre>
quently happens that dry summer is
followed by abundant fall rains, which
come in season to allow us to make large
turnip crop. American Agricuhurist.

THE FATE OF A TRAITOR.

gal lepasu in small cabaret not far from
The frontier, when he observed butcher

forwards Prussian officer The two en-
tered the adjoining room, but through a
crack in the door the French captain saw
the Ifussian officer taking notes in his
book, and give to the butcher some gold
pieces. The captain wrote few lines on
slip OF paper, paid his bill, and waited
ut the door of his cabart until he saw the
Prussian officer and the butcher separate

REDUCING TAXES better com
lnentary en- the holiowness of Democrat
10 pretensionS in regard to the reduction
of taxes can be desired than that which
j. supplied by the record Of votes during
the last session of Congress. Tie reforms
by which Republicans reduced taxes TO
an amount little less than $50, 000. 600,
were carried not only without Democrat
&c help, but in spite of Democratic OPP
position. Upon this point the list of
votes Is conclusive. Thus, in the House,
but FIVE Democrats voted for the bill at
its final stage, while forty-seven Demo
Gratis voted against the bill, aud against
atfording relief to the tax payers which it
provided. In the Senate, two Demo
Gratis voted for and Eve against the bill
as it passed that body. When a Delao-
cratic orator talks loudly about taxation,
then, let these facts be used to silence
MIN. They prove that for the reduction
ct fiscal business the people owe no
thanks to the Democrats. For that work
the Republican party alone is entitled to
credit. .Ne,o Iort; Times

JUDGING A PICKPOCKET

Captain Tcson, who runs steamboat
not only manages the heavy business of
navigation so far as his steamer is con-
cerned, bat he also supervises the lesser
matters of every trip-in fact he head
centers the boat in everything. A night
or two ago a iandytied looking parsonage
made loud alarm saying that some one
had picked his pocket. He charged a
blunt looking fellow, of rough working
like exterior. with having committed the
oifense, and some of the darkics aboard
the boat-no doubt expecting fee-im-
medlately seized the unsuspccti ~ strang-
or and marched him to Captain Teson' $
room. to have him handcutfed and i'm
prlsoned until the arrival at Troy When
brought before the Captain his shrewd
eye at once told him that mistake had
been made. The following laconic con-
versation followed:
Captain Teson Ito prisoner y Did you
rob this man p
Pri,oncr-' No, sir, | didn't"
Captain T.-'L,t's see your hands
Prisoner stretches out his digits
Captain T.-'Go to your berth You
didn't rob this man. | never see man
with both hands caloused by hard work,
and with such handas you sc got, who d
rob man.
Captain T. then turned to the dandy
fled accuser, and another dialogue follow
ed:
Captain T-'Have you been robbed I?
Dandy.-'Yes, sir: and that man rob-
bed me, too
Captain T.-'What do you do for
living?
Dandy. work as clerk in grocery
store at Chicago
Captain T.-'Let's see your hands
Dandy shows up, and the captain, af
ter making a brief inspection, says j:
What you re clerk in grocery store
and got such soft velyety hands as them
Why, they are like the wing of bird.
I'll be hanged if | don't think you're a
thief yourself. When the boat landed
the dandy was the first to jump for the
dock, and Captain Teson says: lie run
ike rascal. and the man he accused of
robbing walked off the boat like an hon

SALT-At meeting of farmers at
Manchester. \. H., during the New En-
gland Fair, Major Peter Jones, of Am
herst. said he had used this season about
q thousand bushels OF salt, soTed broad
cast, and he had third more wheat in
the place where he used the salt than
where he did not use it. Next year he
intends to use four or FIVE thousand
bushels He is satisfied that he gets
better results from salt than from any
other fertilizer He applied salt to pas
ture three years ago, and he gets third
more feed from that pasture than from
the land where he has not made the ap-

\ CITY LIGHTED BY NATURAL Cas-
Erie, Penn. was lit on Wednesday and
Thursday nights by natural gas, obtained
by the Erie Gas Company from well
sunk near their works. Thirteen gas
wells are now in successful operation in
various parts of the city, used mostly TO
furnish fuel and lights for manufactures.
Other wells are being sunk. The gas is
found at an average depth Of $50 feet,
and the average yield per well is upward
of 5000 cubic feet per day. 1t requires
no publication, and is being rapidly intro
duced into private houses for fuel Thus
far, every well put down has proved a
success.

HouE-N,pE CHLORIDE OF LIME

HOMEMADE CHLORIDE OF LIME
Farmers can manufacture their own
chloride OF lime By dissolving bushel of
salt In a barrel Of water, and with the
salt water slack a barrel Of lime, which
should be wet enough to form q kind Of
paste. For the purpose of a disinfeGtor,
this is nearly as good as that purchased
at the shops aud drug stores, at more
than treble the expense. Buy barrel
and use it freely about the sinks and gut
tiers. 1t may keep the unwelcome visitor,
the doctor, from your house at the sea-
son Of the year when you have other
more pleasant matters to attend to.

THE reported battle at Saarbrucken
turned out to be a skirmish. The Prussian
version of the affair, as it comes by the
way of London, is that Slarge force from
Marshal B~azaine's corps, with four pieces
of artillery, moved upon the defences at
Saarbucken on Saturday morning. The
French were met by a part of the Volun-
teer Guards and vigorously attacked, and
after a sharp fight were forced to retreat,
leaving n gun and losing twenty men.
The Prussians lost eight men. The French
War Office gives no account whatever OF
this engagement. On the contrary the Paris
dispatches deny any movement of troops
in force has yet taken place.
