Feeding Bees in Spring.

The following instructions for feeding bees
in spring are from communication by ID.
Staples, Columbia, Team, to the Bee World.
1t is known by all good apiarians that when
honey is coming into the hive regularly the
queen is stimulated to lay n vast amount
more eggs than when there is no honey com.
ing in, although there may be an abundance
Of sealed honey in the hive. Hence the
philosophy of feeding a little honey every
day in early spring; also, if your bees are
destitute Of suihcency Of bee bread, you
can feed little rye flour or corn meal, put
in the sunshine and out of the way of the
wind, with good effect, in order to have a
strong stock of workers on hand on the early
approach Of the harvest, that they may wade
in and take off the first fruits of the land
and should the harvest linger you need moi
fear the laborers will tire, tor when there i:
work to be done the little busy bee is always
ready.
If you wish your bees to use your feed fol
the purpose of raising bees or building OF
now combs you will need to dilute your
honey or syrup with water but not so much
that it will not be sufficiently sweet for the
bees to partake of it freely and in ordeI
that they may not store it in the combs il
will be necessary to acdify it a little By
using acetic acid, cider vinegar, or lemon
juice, for the bees very well know that i
they store such in their combs it will be AT
injury, therefore they will not do it; but
being avaricious little fellows they will eat
Of it and feed it to their young until all be-
come fat with a secretion OF wax, when i
you place an empty frame in the center o
the brood nest, you will be surprised will
what rapidity it will be filed with ney
combs.

Seeding Tree Culture.

Thomas Meehan of the Gardeners Monthly
writes:
"The soundness Of any seeds may be ascer-
tanned by cutting them open Most failures
arise from not sowing in partial shade. If
hot bursts Of sun come on the seed-bed while
the seeds are swelling, and cold follows,
many are liable to rot. For raising seeds
on an extensive scale, many now use artiti-
cial arbors, tall enough to walk under. For
smaller lots, brushwood, or a thin shade Of
corn.stocks on a skeleton frame, is an ex.
cellent plan. Seeds take some time to swell
their seed coats after going into the ground,
hence all should be put in as early as possible
even though the frost be not out Of the
ground if any dry soil can be had to cover
many find advantage in sowing even on fro
zen soil.
For evergreeus of easy growth from seed,
and which will grow rapidly, making beauti-
ful ornaments, capital wind-breaks, and at
length valuable timber, the Norway spruce,
Austrian, Scotch, white, Corsican and Pitch
Pines stand preGminent. The hemock,
white and black spruce, are on a par with
the others, except that the seeds must have
shade to germinatc well.
OF the deciduous trees which grow very
easily from seed and make a very rapid
growth at onco the following stand foremost :;
ailanthus catalpa, persimmon, honey locust,
yellow locust, paulownia, taxodium distchum,
and the English and chestnut oaks. In Kan.
sls and Nebraska, the two former have
grown two feet the first year from seed.
The oak makes usually but about two feet the
first year but an average of two feet every
year."
