Hiving Bees.

In the first place, have bench three
and a-half feet long and sixteen inches
wide, two and a-half feet high also box
a little larger one way than my hive, and
five inches high. nail strip of lath
aeross the inside, near one side, and even
with the top, edgewise, for the hive to rest
upon. My hives contain about two thou
sand cubic inches. My hive is high enough
to contain the honey caps in the chamber.
sometimes put some pieces Of comb IN the
top of the under part this entices them TO
stay and commence work but the passages
to the honey caps must be covered up by
turning the caps over A part ofmy hives
have frames, and in these put comb.
So having all ready, / put the hives
in the shade, and wait for the bees to issue
AS soon as they commence coming ont
take few sprigs of lemon balm (bee
balm-the small POWERED, not the balm
with long, red flowers) and rub the hive
inside, and as soon as they alight set my
bench in the shade, as near them as con.
venient, and put my box on one end and
the hive on the other. Then l take the
box on one arm and hold it under the bees,
and with the other hand shake them into
it, then set them on the bench and place
the hive over them, q little corner wise, TO
give them air, and they will generally 60
up readily. But ifsome linger, take stick
as big as pipe-stem and stir them up
carefully, and they will soon 60 up, ana
then can be set on the bottom board. But
the hive must not be set down tight; II
must set on blocks half an inch thick, and
If it is hot weather, one inch high. Some.
times, in hot weather, they will come on!
and alight, or 20 to the woods "Well,
says one, "they didn't like the hive; OF
they had place picked out and would 80
to 1t. 4" Not 90 fast had one large swarm
come out that way, and l put them back N
the same hive and got pail Of cold WAFER
from the well and, with broom brush, !
sprinkled the ground about the hive ana
threw some up in the air and it came do~I
like rain, and 30 / saved my bees and So
do with all my swarms in hst weather.
"But, says one, can't spend my tine
in that way. Stop! let me count the co ss.
A good sized swarm in June il worth ~
in July % to %, and who can afford
lose that amount?"
But have another way of hiving, ~
easier than the first named l have p
ten feet long on this ! tie some brsncnses
from tree two feet long, and put il ID snT
shade, and when they begin to come ous =
take some balm and pound it, and pun
on the branches, and hold it up amons
them, and most of the time they will cow
to it but this requires practice. BY tns
mode Of hiving save all my swarms.

BY ELLA WHEELER.
SRE rose mp ia the cary dawn
And white and silently she moved
About the house: Four men had gone
To battle for the land they loved;
And she, the mother and the vile,
Waited for tidings from the etriie. -.
How sfiII the house seemed; and her tread
Sounded like footsteps OF the DEAD
The long day passed. The dark night came.
She had not seen q human face.
Some voice spoke suddenly her name.
How loud Il sounded, In tbaS place
Where day on day no sound was heard :,
But her own footsteps. Bring you word"
She cried. to whom she could not See

The soldier walked across the door,

Wiped the cold dew drops from his cheek
And sought the mOnrner's side again.

but Mrs. Ruggles yet sat at her lonely
table, as still as the sleepers around her.
The clock struck 10; she nervously drew
soiled paper from her bosom. Eleven !;
she rose with hesitation and set the tallow
candle behind the door. Then she softly
entered the bedroom and stood before the
window where Alice lay. The sky was
clear. The moon shone on the face and

the graceful lines, richer the shadows in
the Golden hair, tenderer the tint of cheek
and lip.

THE Cuban cable was examined for re-
pairs, recently, because Of the frequent in
terruptions during the past year, and
found crushed in numerous places In the
depths where the great loggerhead turtles
abound. The conclusion is that these
creatures with their powerful jaws, which
so easily crunch the shells of the conches
on which they feed, have been playing with
the cable. The company are to lay a
stronger one.
THE Dubuque Times says: "Some two
years ago an Illinoisian, temporarily So

our pleasure to remind them, that time has
fully come, and We hope ose and all will
be as good as their word. Don't SAT "Wait
