Rapid Honey Gathering.

An Ohio correspondent of the Ameri'
can Bee journal, gives the following ac'
count of an experiment tried to ascer.
tain the rate at which bees collect hon.
ey under favorable circumstances
We have just received a pair of spring
scales, with a dial like clock, to mark
the weight from two ounces up to sixty
pounds. We keep medium sized stock
weight can be seen at any time in pass.
ing. This serves as sort of index OF
the rate the honey is coming in.
Thus, our first test showed the in
crease of weight from six o'clock in the
morning until seven, six ounces; from
seven o'clock to eight, six ounces from
eight to nine, thirteen ounces; from nine
to ten, fifteen onnces and after that
twelve ounces per hour, until o'clock
p. m.; and then fourteen ounces be-
tween three and four: then twelve
ounces again between four and five, and
five and six from six to seven, nine
ounces and three ounces only from sew.
en- to eight.
For these experiments we are obliged
to use an American hive, with only one
set of frames, as the Langstroth hives
are too heavy for the capacity Of our
scales. We did not get our hive al
ranged until six o'clock in the morning,
and considerable honey was brought in
before that time. Without doubt they
gathered ten pounds that day. and we
feel sure that our sixty-fve stocks ave
ragged as much as six hundred and fifty
(650) pounds for one days work. This
is possible only when plenty of room in
empty comb is given. The hive men
toned was emptied entirely the day be-
fore. The honey gathered was from
Eastwood blossoms, which, in our opin-
quantity and quality of honey.
What would hundred acre Eastwood
orchard of cultivated trees yield? We
hope to see it tried, if we are permitted
to live long enough.
To resume the scales twelve ounces
per hour is one ounce in every five
minutes, and this was readily seen while
we were standing before the hive.
About nine o'clock we noticed great
many bees falling short of the
alighting board which they could not
crawl upon, as the hive was suspended,
but had to rest until they could again
take wing; but they were so heavily la.
den that this had often to be repeated.
By lacking piece Of cloth on the edge
of the hive, so as to drop on the ground,
they hummed in as merrily as you
please; and the scales then showed ff.
teen ounces an hour, or one ounce in
every four minutes.

This feeling Is showed by tho military here 10 a

that the companies can afford to yield the prices

miners may be driven into some ether overt act than
to riot and then conflict with the State troops. The
result may be imagined, not described. The people
arc waiting with anxiety the developments OF the
next few hours and earnestly pray that the rays OF

We give in another portion of the paper
letter frem Elko, Nevada, town on the line
oftie Central Pacific Railroad, containing the
important information that coal of excellent
quality and very rich iron ore have been dis
covered in that vicinity. If this information
Is correct, and we have no reason to doubt 1t,
the immense value of these deposits can hardly
be estimated. Rich as Nevada is known to be
in silver and gold, they will sink into insignifi-
canoe, comparatively, should coal and iron be
found to abound. The Central Pacific Rail-
road Company will b. greatly benefited there
by. 1t has been obliged to depend upon wood
cut from the Sierra Nevada Mountains or from
motive power, and the latter is neces-
sarily very costly. All the coal
they have used has been obtained from
the Wahsach range of mountains in Utah, on
the line of the Union Pacific Railroad, and
has to be hauled long distance at great
expense before reaching the points where it is
required. As coal has been found at Elko,
nearly the central point of the former conf
pany's line, the probabilities are that it will be
discovered at other points, until all the fuel
required for locomotive and other purposes
can be had at very low figure. That iron
orc Of fine quality has been discovered Is even
of more Importance, and, as the writer of the
letter says, smelling furnaces will soon be
erected and the value of the deposit fully
tested. The demand for iron on the Pacific
coast has heretofore been entirely supplied
from England and the Eastern States; but
now, il it Can be had almost at their doors, its
yalne for railroad ard manufacturing pur-
poses will be fond incllculable.

The IsoOk Concern.

The Methodist Book Concern affairs ara
at last, it appears, to be investigated. The
Rev. Dr. Carlton, agent having demanded
the fullest investigation OF his official manage
ment OF the Concern, and the Book Commit
tees subcommittee having, from causes
already published, failed to appoint experts to
examine the books. he has himself selected
three well known accountants-aamely, Messrs.
J. Van Week, Methodist, of Brooklyn, chief ;
Charles Calender, Baptist, of Newark, and
+. W. Gum, a Presbyterian, of this city,
assistants. Mr.. Van Week had been unani-
mousy selected by the committee, but was
objected to by Dr. Llnahans counsel because
he had been attending to this work for
some time past. Their instructions are
most liberal and strict, and they are not only
authorized TO cxamine the cash and other
accounts, but to question the employees also
in relation to any ard every matter which may
come before them. Thus, without any moro
subterfuge and withdrawing, this whole
mystery will soon be cleared up, and the
Church and the public will be able to judge
whether the allegations of ''fraih and mis-
management are well grounded or otherwise.
This action Of DIR. Carlton shows also that, his
accusers to the contrary Notwithstanding, he
is not afraid Of an investigation. Although
made upon his own personal responsibility. bis
action has the approval of the Bisnop and the
subcommittee, who are only too glad OF
course, to get out Of tho snarl in which they
had placed themselves TINS easily.
