After Wild Honey.

The senses OF the bees are very acute.
BY the aid of smell they find the sweet
est flowers, and thus the delicate cleanli-
ness of the hive is preserved. While
certain odors are very attractive TO them,
others are excessively repugnant. This
fondness for certain perfumes is used by
bee-hunters in discovering the nests of
wild bees. When wild bees are seen
lettering around, an upright stake, ts the
upper end of which is attached small
horizontal platform, is planted somewhere
near on this platform is placed bit OF
full comb, and in front of 1t is suspended
an open vial of annis, an sdor they par
ticularly love. To expedite matters, one
of the strange bees is frequently captured
by inverting over the flower from which
it Is sucking q small cylinder with glass
over the end. The bee flies up to the
lighted end the lower psrt is covered by
the hand, and the cylinder placed over
the honey comb on the platform. As

rarners' Care OF Fowls.


There Is probably no other interest on
the farm 90 generally neglected as that
of poultry. 1t is q common phrase
among farmers that "chickens can
scratch for living" and this comprises
about all the care they receive. Sum-
mer or winter, rain or sunshine, cold or
warm, in all kinda of weather they are
left to take care of themselves, gaining
n precarious living, roosting on trees,
fences, the managers or racks in the stable;
they are merely suffered As a nuisance,
rather than cared for as they sheuld be
