CURE FOR ULCERs.-A correspondent

has resulted. The first effect of the
preparation was 10 remove inhamma-

wetting the upper surface, restores them

filing up the cracks and pores in the

Facts in Brief About Bees.

A correspondent furnishes the follow
ing 10 the LiCe Stock Journal:
There are three classes of bees in a
hive, the worker, queen and drone.
Queens are raised by peculiar food
and treatment from eggs that would
otherwise produce workers.
The worker Is an undeveloped female
Workers, in the absence of a queen,
sometimes lay eggs. These invariably
produce drones.
The queen lives from two to five
years. The worker from two to three
months in the working season, and
from six to eight during the season OF
rest.
The queen is perfected in fifteensor
sixteen days from the egg, the worker
in twenty to twenty-one, and the drone
in twenty-four.
The queen usually commences laying
seven TO twelve days after leaving the
cell, and is capable Of laying from two
to three thousand eggs in day.
The true northerner. [volume] (Paw Paw, Mich.) 1855-1920, 1871-06-02

| The impregnation of the queen al.
ways takes place outside the hive, on
the wing, and generally the fourth OF
fifth day after leaving the cell. Except
1 ing in rare cases, one impregnation an.
swers for life. The drone she has mated
| with flies Immediately.
The eggs of an unimpregnated queen
produce nothing but drones and it is
generally conceded that impregnation
| does not affect the drone progeny con-
sequently. the male progeny of a pure
Italian queen is pure without regard to
the drones she has mated with.
The queen and worker, are provided
with stings but while the latter will
use it upon any provocation, the former
will only use it on her own rank. The
drones have no stings.
One queen, as rule, is all that is
tolerated in a hive; but previous to
throwing off latter swarms," two or
more queens are permitted in the same
hive for a short time; but the extra
ones are soon disposed Of In case of
superseding q queen, the old one is pre-
served until the new one is fitted to
take her place. Queens have deadly
hatred for each other. and will destroy
if permitted, all queen Larvae or cells in
the hive, and will fight each other until
there is but one living one left.
Bees gather. three kinds Of products :
propolis, from the gum of trees and
shrubs, for fastening the joints and
cracks Of their hives pollen, or bee
bread, from flowers, for feeding their
yeung and themselves and honey.
which constitutes the main food Of the
hive. Water is also carried into the
hive during the breeding season for
mixing with the food of their young
Salt is also made use of for the same
purpose.
Wax, like fat. is an animal product,
and Is secreted by the bees in thin scales
from the under side of the body. While
doing this, they consume large quanti-
ties of Honeymoon fifteen to twenty
pounds for every pound of wax Sc
creted
A frightened bee, or one filled with
honey, Is not disposed TO sting.
\ good swarm contains about twenty
thousand bees.
\ strong or medium hive, with a good
laying queen. is never seriously trou.
bled with the moth worm; but a hive
without a queen or the means of raising
one is sure to be taken by them.
Bees recognize each other by their
scent.
The first one or two weeks of the
young bees life is spent inside the hive,
as nurse or wax-wOrker.
The range of bees fight for food is
generally within two or three miles :;
much greater range is of but little
benefit TO them.

WHITEwAsH.-The following is sent
out by the Lighthouse Board of the
Treasury Department "The following
recipe for withdrawing has been found
by experience to answer on wood, brick,
and stone, nearly as well as oil paint,
and is much cheaper: Stake half
bushel of unslaked lime with boiling
water, keeping it covered during the
process. Strain it and add a peck of
salt. dissolved in warm water; three
pounds of ground rice put in boiling
water, and boiled to a thin paste; half
a pound Of powdered Spanish whiting.
and pound Of clear glue, dissolved in
warm water; mix these well together.

days. Keep the wash thus prepared in

used put it on as hot as possible. with

An affecting incident in the Lieuten-
ants career, which shows not only his
naughty reserve, but also throws light
upon the delicacy of the German joke,
is the following: Once in a company
with young lady, wishing to show how
good housewife she could be for any
young soldier, offered Won Moltke a
piece of head-cheese made by her own
dainty fingers. Alas the weather was
cold and the head-cheese frozen, so that
it hurt the teeth that essayed to crack
it. Not many days afterwards, at an
evening party, the gallant Lieutenant
offered this young lady frosted bon
bon; she tbok it with delight, clapped
it into her mouth, hut " found to her
horror, cold stone inside of it, which
looked like piece of mosaic" but
which in reality was piece of frozen
cheese. Then the naughty man clank-
ed his spurs, smiled sardonically, turned
upon his steel-clad heel, and strobe
fercely from the baronial hall.
