CaEicrRey Honey.

Among the other numerous products
for which California seems destined to
become famous, honey ranks "a by no
means the least valuable item. II has
already found its way into the Eastern
markets, though so far ia limited sup
ply, and isInuch admired for its purity
and deIicacy Of flavor Its production
i not limited to any part Of tie State,
but at present it is chiefly made a speci-
atty in San Diego county, near the Mex
lean border The honey crop Of that
county for 1913 was 1l9, 9,G00pounds, and
it is expected it will this year equal 20o,-
900 pounds.
The bees commence working in that
county about the first Of February, and
the season for storing honey lasts from
June to September The first honey is
made from the flowers Of the sage plant,
which grows there in such abundance.
This is the true sage, and must not be
confOunded with the sage BRUSH Of
Nevada and the Northern counties The
fiat top or" "bucbwheat greasewOod" also
affords excellent honey. The bloom of
this plant closely resembles that of buck
wheat, hence the name. The flowers of
the sumac is another source, and the ice
plant which covers as much of the coun-
try, is likewise sought by the bees. This
latter plant makes a very white honey,
but it is liable 90 the objection that it
turns very quickly to sugar, or can
dies, as the honey men term it.
The bee-keepers therefore try to avoid
it.
The bulk OF tlIe honey finds "A market
in the East. Several car loads were
shipped from San Diego East last year
and found "A paying and aPpreciative
market, and much more will be shipped
this year. The honey made in San Di-
ego is exceedingly white and handsome,
and of fine flavor, and commands a good
price and ready market wherever offer
ed. Little or no strained can be sold
during the prevalence of the green fruit
season, and it will not be until next Fall |
that any great amount can be moved. |
The total crop in California this year is
oariously estimated at from 900, GEO to |
200, 900 pounds.-EcOHOmist

Cows that Kick,

Many Of our best cows dislike 10 be
MIXED, and are fussy and uneasy when
you set pail under them. This is par
ticularly the ease with the Jersey grades.
Instances of this kind seem to be more
numerous than formerly, and are most
numerous i'll diaries kept under the fore
ing system adopted by those who sup
ply milk for the market or cheese factory.
In many or perhapse most cases. COWS
become addicted to it after been MIXED
for a few years: though quiet and gentle
the first year Of their milking. There is
no doubt that the production of a large
quantity of milk is often attended with
sensation of soreness and exhaustion
IN the lacteal parts, which induce a sens
alton OF dread and dislike to be MIXED
by the animal. In a case like this-and
| think they comprise fully nine-tenths
of the troublesome milkers-if IS fbe
tco1St kind gf folly 10 aJttSe q oo,r for
htching. When a COW becomes trouble
some about milking, the best thing that
can be done is to fasten the foot will, a
rope. Make the end of the rape fast
behind her, take wind and draw the
loot little back and tie with a half
hitch Put measure of shorts or some
other provender before her, then Dro-
ceed carefully to milk, favoring her as
she shows cringing or uneasiness. The
extraction of a large pailful. twice q
day, of rich, highly-vitalized huid. like
milk, can exert no other than an ex-
hausting and debilitatinS influence on
the animal. This on nervous animal
soon induces irritabiIity and what we
call vicious conduct. No animal needs
kind and careful treatment more than
COWS giving large quantity of milk

For CLEANSING THE HAIR AND SCALP

For CLEANSING TEE HAIR AND SCALP
A lady writes To the Western Rural:
'In the warm days Of summer. with
dust and perSpiration, the heads of peo-
pie, especially OF Iaborers and children
get very dirty, and common washing
washing will not remove this.
''iIeIe is recipe given me by a noted
lecturer OH hygiene, which am sure will
please all who use il: in pint bottle
put spoonful of olive oil and add two
ounces of best spirits Of ammonia or
Illrishorn; shake. Then mix with three
ounces of alcohol and. when thoroughly
mixed, fiji the bottle with soft water.
Remember to put III the order named,
or you will have stuff amd no chemi-
cal union at all.
TO apply, take "A spoonful or two of
this with little warm water; dip a
sponge or rag in and wet the scalp thor
ouGl!y: now rinse off in plenty of warm
water, and you will be surprised at the
amount of dirt, though you may have
thought your head perfectly clean.
For the heads of young inftnts it is
just the thing, as it instantly removes
the dirt scurf without pain or trouble

WHAT THE South WANTS. The En-
pre- State of the South needs manafac-

some little bitterness that a Georgian
Journalist recently wrote. 4 c;aorc,i,

of his door, plows his fields with =
Northern plow, chops out his cotton
with New England hoe, gins his cot
ton on Boston gin, hoops it with Pen
sylvania iron, hauls it 10 market on a
Concord wagon, while the little grain
he raises is cut and prepared for sale by
Yankee implements. We find the Geor-
gia housewife cooking with an Albany
stove. and even the food, especially the
Iuxuries, are imported from the North.
