Farmers ShOuld be Bee-keepers.

Mr.. Jasper Hazen, of Albany, n. y,
an experienced Apiarian, gives the fol-
lowing hints on the value Of bee-raising,
and on managing them;
There are several reasons that pre-
sent themselves to my mind, why the
farmers should be the bee-keepers, and
the profits from the flowers produced
upon their farms be theirs, as we'll as
the profits of fields of grain and grass.
The fields are theirs and they are entl-
tied to the products. The product of
honey may be secured with much less
expense and trouble in proportion to its
value, than the othe: products of their
fields. From so to 200 lbs. of honey
may be secured annually, upon each
hundred acre farm, on an average
worth from SIG to $60-and require
but an outlay of SO for several years ::
ii. e) the cost of one hive and swarm
of bees,
have a swarm placed in my hive
in 1861, for which | paid s., from which
| have taken in three years $50 lbs. OF
white clover honey in boxes, and in the
seven seasons including its first year
has averaged more than leo lbs. This,
an ordinary season, | have taken from
it l40 lbs, by August 2nd-of course
all white honey.
If we divide the cost of the hive and
swarm $50 into 1000 parts it will
bring the actual cost of the honey at
one cent per pound, But this is my
best hive, the only one from which |
have taken 200 lbs. of honey in one
season my next best gave me ia lbs.
But it can hardly be expected that far
mers with only one or two hives Of
bees will seek to become expert in the
management of bees and handle nova
bic comb frames, raise queens, &c,
&C.; nor is it necessary, The hive is
constructed with either movable frames
or bars. l have used both The best
hive of which | here speak is made
with bars and no trouble, but to put on
the surplus boxes in their season and
remove them when filed
| have another hive from which |
have this season taken "a lbs. of sur
plus, all white clover honey from two
colonies.
In many fields 1 have no doubt, they
would have done better, and in some
not as well.
This is an ordinary field.
p. S. If we consider few facts
the product of 200 lbs, surplus by s
non-swarmer need not surprise us.
l. No surplus honey is stored by the
swarmer, as a general rule, while the
bees are making preparation for swarm
ing. They cluster outside of the hive
in idleness.
3 If second swarm issues, a%ht
or ten days more are lost
3. Sometimes third and even fourtl
swarms issue.
4. All this time is improved by the
whole working force of the whole colo
nv in the non-swarmer The old colo
ny and all the new swarms are the pro
duct of the old queen, and allthe brood
in the first swarm. With such force
instead of working in three or more
hives, all operating in one hive and it:
surplus boxes, with no loss of time il
preparation for swarming, | think 20(
lbs, and even more, may be secured il

saws:
We are often asked by young farmers
our opinion about going into some par
ticular branch of business
Whether horses, or cattle, or sheep
are most preferable +?
Whether there is most money in the
dairy or wool?
Whether to sell milk or make butter
Whether poultry raising is profita-
BILE
Whether, in fact, this or that branch
is most advisable?
Answers to these questions must be
based, as we have already intimated,
on full consideration OF such circum-
stances as soil, market preferences of
the farmer and his family, etc, but,
after all, what one does is Of less conse-
quence than how he doesit. Whatever
you undertake, master it if possible.
Don't expect to make fortune at farm
ing in one year, or in five years Strive
to raise crops of superior quality
don't be satisfied with anything short
of the very best in your line, and when
you have gained reputation for rails
ing good crops and for fair dealing,
keep that reputation. 1t is as valuable
to you as the farm itself.

Cur HAY FOR Mich Cows.-Cut
lay or straw is more valuable than
whole, and if steamed is still more
nutritious. Wetting down is substi-
tute for steaming, and may he resorted
to when one has not got a steam box
and boiler. Sow some fodder corn for
your cows, and feed the hay and bran
merely wet down in Summer, but in
Winter by all means steam it. The
best length to cut your hay is half
inch; little more or less will not much
matter. 1t is claimed by those who
have experimental with cut food that
there is a saving of not less than twen-

POULTRY AS FARM STOCK.

How many farmers might obtain
plenty of new accommodations for poul-
try by simply making use of the build
ings they already possess, and how
farmers consider fowls unworthy of con-
sideration, because of some supposed
difficulty or expense in erecting suitable
houses
And worse than this, how many
farmers try to make poultry pay without
any result beyond continual vexations,
merely from lack of ingenuity in bring
ing ordinary appliances into play
"Why bother" they ask, " about raising
chickens in cow-sheds and outbuildings,
when you can set out as many coops as
you like on the grass of a paddock, the
gravel of a stable-yard, or upon the
scattered rick-yard straw" Because,
generally speaking, half your chickens
die under the common tarm-yard treat
ment. They get wet feet and die of
cramp; they drink the high colored
soak-water of manure heaps, of straw
yard drains and other filthy slops, and
consequently sicken and die by dozens.
We have a troop of adult breeding
fowls loose in the farm-yard they pick
up large part of their living there
But they do not thrive so well and keep
so healthy as other troops of breeding
stock which we have stationed at houses
purposely erected in grass fields far
from the homestead For very small
sum YOU may erect a square board
house, tarred outside, lime washed in
side, and covered with asphalted felt
Each of the four sides is in separate
piece, the roof Gf of a gable form) in
two pieces, all knocked together at tie
corners with staples and pins. So
house, say six feet or seven feet cubit,
can be popped into cart, and tempor-
arily set up in pasture, or on stub
BILE, or wherever there may be good
picking for the fowls A couple of
perches, few nests, and drinking-pan
for the furniture, while the ground cov-
cred in by the house (for there is no
wooden floors) is spread over with
loose earth, ashes, and mortar. Such
is the home for one cock and eight or
ten hens and pullets during the breed
ing season, or the home of double this
number of half-grown chickens The
house should be placed against hedge,
or in corner where two hedges meet,
so that few poles or posts protect it
against cattle.
There can be no good reason against
grazing fowls as well as other ami
mails, " and the farmer who tries it for
the first time will be surprised at the
amount of "grub Qiterally, perhaps }
which the active scratchers and pickers
will find in a grass field, in and under
the droppings of sheep and cattle,
among hedgeposts, upon ditch sides,
and so on; only small amount of
grain being necessary twice a day.
We wish that many farmers would take
our advice-procure what hardy sort
you most fancy, Cochin or Brahma,
that endure close quarters game that
are strong old English birds; Dorkings
that like dry chalk and gravel coun-
tries or, if you are in low or wet
neighborhood, on tenacious soil, put
Cochin cock to Dorking females (no
cross breeds allowed for parents, mind,
but get good blood and pure breeds)
and you will have hardihood in your
chicks, as well as weight and quality
in your couples for market.

THE HORSE AND PREMIUMs.-A cor
respondent of Rural Home" writes
"In the premium list Of the Monroe
(N. W County Society for the last an
nual fair, we see offered for horses, in
the aggregate of all grades for utility,
the sum of $500, and for style and
speed the sum of $3.50, or more than
four times the amount for style and
speed to that for general utility. Then
for the best thoroughbred animal we
see offered the premium of $40, and for
the fastest trotting nag, 5000; for the
best field of wheat, not less than five
acres, is offered $40, and for the second
fastest horse $3.50; for the best show
of agricultural implements, manufac
tured by the exhibitor, gold medal Cor
gold watch, and for the fastest horse
that has never beat 2:35, $3.50; and SO
we may go on through the whole sched-
ule of premiums and see the principle
carried out that style and speed are far
more important than things of utility
And this is the reason why SO man,
of our Agricultural Fairs languish and
are barren of profitable results.
Men who value STYLE above utility,
and not real, practical intelligent far
mers manage them. When will our
farmers find time and develop intell-
gence and ELAN enough to take the
control Of their most important affairs
into their own hands?
