a hive full of bees has ceased to have
its horrors, oil protection except the
veil will be dispensed with. A good
bee veil is made by taking yard OF
black netting-costing usually about
twenty cents--and sewing the ends
together, thus making bag open al
top and bottom. Then with a half
ward of good strong rubber cord, run
through the meshes at the ends, you
have veil which will slip on over
the crown of an old hat, and by draw
ing up and tying at the neck, yon
have all the protection required, for II
properly made and adjusted no bee
can touch your face or neck, conse-
quentl y there need he no fear of stingS,
besides it is light and one can see
through it nearly as well as If not
worn.
CLEMENTS ATTACHMENTS FoE COTTON
SPINNING
Under the heading spinning our
own Cotton at home" in he RurGt
C0roItnian, we find this reference to
what some of our Southern friends
seem to think is going to revolution
ize Southern industry. MIR. b. +.
Archer SAYS: The Clements At
tachment is used upon the ordinary
card stand, but no use can be made
of it unless there is other machinery
in conn, elton with it Bu; it can be
used protitably and successfully with
very small outlay. For instance,
suppose a man had ten-horse r over,
of any kind, with q good comfortable
house that would exclude the wind,
sufficiently large to hold the spinning
apparatus, be could work one card
stand, one doube-hcadcd drawing
frame, one spider, and about four
hundred spindles, which, carefully
arranged, would give employment 10
five or six children and one or two
hands, and would be quite nice
business. 1t cannot be run in an
ordinary Clubhouse, as some suppose,
for where you manufacture cotton you
must exclude both wind and cold.
hope that our people will not be
oversighted, but study this great i'm
provement, with its many advantages,
carefully, and endeavOr to get a cor.
rect understanding of 1t. We set out
to destroy, if possible, the memorable
midtile-man, and bring producer and
consumer together. Here the finest
opportunity presents itself in the one
great staple ever known to any peo-
pie on earth. More, and better still,
all the improved machinery ever
known to man for the manufacture OF
cotton sinks into insignificance when
compared With this one little machine.
Nothing, however good, can compete
in safety or quality of goods and |
venture the assertion that the revOlu-
tion in the manufacturing Of cotton
goods will he more signal and CON-
plete in ten years than the great politi-
cal revolution through which we have
, just passed
