A SIMPLE MODE OF WINTERTNG REFS.

A SIMPLE MODE OF WINTERING BEES.

tiers IN out door win tering. that | have
laid to the bees disease; but ! fear that
some of this loss was due TO or accel-
Grated By leaving the hives on the sum-
mer stands. instead of laying down
wide board on the ground, and placing
the hive on it, and then placing an abun
dance of leaves about the hive. so that
the ground under the hive would not
freeze. This would have kept the bees
more comfortable, and the temperature
would have been more equable.
Some people place corn stalks about
the summer stands for this purpose. and
with good effect. In one instance last
winter. saw stand of bees that came
out in good condition. that had been
thrust down an arbor vitae hedge for
shelter from the sun, and left to remain
through the winter. Not twenty rods
from this were three or four stands of
bees on their summer stands, some ten
or twelve inches from the ground, all of
which were lost It is well enough to
talk about wintering bees in cellars and
frost proof rooms, but the truth is, and
it may as we'll be told, that large pro
portion of our farmers, who keep bees for
the production of honey for family use
have no such accommodation for their bees !;
and, if we can aid this class in any way,
it should be DONE and hence these sug
gestions are thrown out for their benefit.
An evergreen hedge, tight board fence,
or boards set against an cid rail fence,
will make good place for the bees A
bed of leaves, il they are at hand, On
which to place the boards, will be a good
thing. Then the co-nstalks can be set
about the hive to keep off the sun On
warm, thawy days, that would so warm
up the bees as to induce Thorn to fly +; and
then the stalls will keep off the rain and
snow, and leave the hives dry and com.
Portable. We may thus save weak
swarms, If we do not ward off disease,
like the bee disease of the past winter.
Brit am inclined to the opinion that, in
many cases. the disease may in this man
ner be warded off, or at least greatly
modified.
The %intering of bees in the prairie
country is. perhaps, one of the most i'm
portant questions to the small farmer
who keeps bees in order to supply his
own family with honey. The bee jour
mails occupy much space with this SUBJ
ject; but the majority ofthe writer's, be-
ing commercial bee Keepers, overlook the
thousands of farmers who do make the
business study or pursue it on large
scale.--EUa, an Chicago Tribune.

During the discussion on the resolution il

they pay the money for the lot, and claim
that the lots sell higher when "a deed is given
and more money can be got out of them. On
the other hand, the advocates of the present
order of things insist that If deeds for the lot,
are given instead of leases that the lots pass
from under the control of the Association
that other buildings may be erected than those
contemplated; that other business may be
conducted than such as the Association would

for public use in Camden, or for any other
purpose that we can see, than to enable a single
individual to mOnOpollze the liquor traffic and
gather the large profits from the entire license
business into his own Golfers That it is our
opinion that a temperance house could be eS
tablished in Camden-the sale of strong drink
being comparatively little to nonresident
guests the principal sales being to our resident
citizens and their children
