at any other stage of growth. Moving ma.

other small parts liable to breakage. An
assortment Of bolts of various sizes and

danger Of the queen carrying with her TO the
new hive some germ of the disease. If the
stocklis not badly diseased, and all remain till
all the young bees arc hatched; then prob
ably tho swarm will have young queen.
Put the bees in a new hive, on the old stand,
and remove the foul comb and honey awav'
never to be used in the apiary again under
any consideration. After few days remove
all the comb in the hive, and as soon as DOS.
sible change the queen for one you know is
healthy. If the season is not too far ad.
vanced, or the bees too few, we may reason.
ably hope for a good healthy stock to winter.
Yet we need TO watch closely, for some germ
OF the disease may have been carried with

According to wel.known natural law.
the application Of cold, which is but another
expression of the abstraction of heat con.
tracts solid and fluid bodies, more particu.
larly solid bodies classed as metallic. The
metallic pendulum of clock is a little
shorter in winter than in summer hence its
vibrations are more rapid and the time-piece
runs faster. Cold contracts mercury not
only down to the freezing point of water,
(32o F.) but to the point at which the
mercury itself congeals, about 40 o be.

to the same law of heat aud cold. The cold

lar tissue and adiposo matter, contracts the
whole into narrow space, and we feel com.
Portable in the same apparel, particularly
for the feet in which there is little elasticity.
that during summer was nearly intoIerable.
These examples are introduced to show
that the law of expansion by heat and con.
traction by cold is general law but when
applied to water it has an exception worthy
ofOur admiration and study. At the temper.
ature oil ~ 9 water is at its greatest den.
slty. AT this temperature heat expands It
to the boiling point, 2l2 Q at this temper
ature cold expands it to the freezing point,
" and still further until the degree of
cold has reached its maximum. Thus these
opposite agents produce similar effect upon
water but when applied to other bodies
their effects are as opposite as the agents
themselves.
In his excellent work containing much
sound reasoning and good sense, Geo. Combo
says Constitution of Man, page 20) that the
laws OF nature admit of no exception. 1t
seems that the fact that water expands by
cold must have escaped his notice when he
wrote his valuable treatiss, or he would
have admitted that here is al exception in
human enactments But il is an exception
wise and beneicient as it is eternal and un.
ohangeable; and upon i. millions of organ.
lied beings depend for their existence.
1t is interesting to contemplate the effect
that would follow if this exception to the
general law Of heat and cold were suspended
and water should, like other fluids, contract
at the point Of cOngelation. At the ap.
proach of winter the cold Of tho broad re.
g'ons gradually creeps over the temperate
zone and as fast as the surface water Of
the lakes and streams should fall to nearly
S2 its specific gravity would bo greater
than the specific gravity of the subjaoent
water it would then fall to the bottom and
be succeeded by other surface water until
the whole lake or stream would reach the
temperature of 32e and be converted into
ice. In the northern parts Of the GONE and
In its more southern localities where the
depth OF the frozen mass would be consid.
erable, and in mountainous districts, these
large bodies of ice would not liquify in one
season. and hence would be perpetual every
fish would die and vast territory would be.

have also habit of gathering in groups or
masses upon the trunks or larger branches
of the trees, during the night, whence in the
morning, before the sun warns them, thew

stroyed. In this way an orchard NAV be
entirely protected, even when they are thick
in the adjoining forests. But they must be
looked after promptly, as they raid in such
heavy columns that one or two days of un.
checked ravages will enable them to take
every leaf from an apple tree Of considerable

poisonous, can be handled with perfect safety
