HONEY BEES WORKING AGAINST
TINE. Elf not afraid Of them one can
handle bees as safely as they can handle
chickens, but attempt TO drive them and
they will drive you," said VIM. Fenner,
Of West Henrietta, y. H., at session
Of the Western New York Farmers
Club. To transfer the busy workers
from one hive TO another MIR. Fenner
first blows little tobacco smoke among
them to excite them; in this condition
they fill themselves with honey and will
not sting. He approves Of movable
comb hives, because when the frame is
filed with honey il il easily removed
and returned to the hive. BY means OF
an extractor he had relieved combs Of
their honey, replaced frame and comb
in the hive, and had il refilled in two
days. His experience is that bees will
make more honey in large boxes than
small ones. In regard to the quantity
Of honey from one stock, Mr.. Fenner
considers the pretense Of 800 pounds
from hive fraud, as one queen has TO
lay all the eggs, and the idea that she
can propagate bees enough to make so
much honey Is, in his opinion, absurd
Mr.. Smith, of Marion, Wayne Coun-
ty, n. ", who keeps many bees and
makes much honey. has discarded side
boxes. using top-boxes entirely. He
also employs foundation comb, by which
means drones are avoided in surplus
boxes. As it takes 20 pounds Of honey
to me pound OF comb, foundation comb
IA ~ a.
labor of making comb gain many shin
ing hours. MIR. Smith has had set Of
surplus boxes filed and capped in three
days.
Mr.. Burch, member Of the National
Bee-keepers' Convention, says that 100
colonies Of bees are as many as can be
profitably kept in one locality, and will
furnish one person with employment
where the extractor is exclusively used
for at least $50 days. work out Of each
year. One hundred colonies arranged
for the extractor, with an extra set
of combs, stocked with Italian bees
in movable hives, represent
about $1,000. Suitable appli-
ances for carrying on the business
will cost $500 more. This estimate in
cludes ground tor a bee-yard, house
for storing honey in summer and pro-
tecting bees in winter, and all necessary
appurtenances. The interest, taxes and
thereon will amount TO about
10 per cent, or $50; the labor, at -
per day, adds $500 more Such an
apiary, according TO Mr. Burch's expert
ence, will give an annual yield OF 5000
pounds extracted honey. But little in.
crease Of stock is secured when the
extractor Is exclusively used-enough
perhaps to cover losses in wintering.
According to the above estimate, in
which MIR. Burch claims to have avoid
ed extremes, the retail cost of produc-
ing honey is . cents per pound In
seasons when honey is very plentiful 100
hives will exceed 5000 pounds; yet in
three years out Of four the yield will
bring it down to about the average
price.

BURMAH's DRUNKEN KING.

Instead Of getting crowned I'D Inc
beginning Of the Burmese year, as
had been expected, Theebau, being
primed for something, resolved to have
some fun ont IF the Burmese Water
Festival. 1t is customary at this
feast for yorDg men and inaidens to
ldouse one another with water, per
|formancc accomplished with much
good humor and laughter. and not .
little immortality. Theebau dressed
MP his Letihoudau, his pages Of honor,
in fancy costumes and tigers and "bel-
lows" or monsters Of all sorts, and
having furnished them with plentiful
cIlatties Of water, sent them off to
souse the princesses in the palace
prison. What might have been a
Joke lad the ladies' been free, proved
most dismal business. AT first they
Ithonght the end had core, but, wien
liz was discovered to be only piece
of coarse pleasantly, there was a
scene. Half the younger women
TAINTED away aud covered shrieking
| III the corner, while the older stormed
and scolded as only Burmese women
can scold. The kings little pastime
therefore proved a failure, and he was
thrown into a corresponding bad tenn
Iper. The murder Of few children
since then is said to be the result.
Certain il is that two innoccnts not
more than ten years old have been
done to death, and possibly more have
shared their fate. Theebau has oblit

lery A little fellow, the son of the
ITsobin Prince, the mad Prince, as he
was called, was brought before tie
king of Shake to him before being
handed over to the executiouers. The
poor boy was half dead with fear, but
when he raised his eyes to the throne
aud saw who was there he clapped
his hands with delight and cried: "Oh
that's Theebau; lheebau won't let
them do mo any harmw A murmur
Of pity went round the ring of courties
and Theebau said, after little pause;

motioned with his hand, and the poor
boy was taken back to gaol Ter
days ago, by order of Theebau, blow
from club on the throat ended the
poor things's misery.

Political Notes.

- Wade Hampton is now fairly on the stump
in South Carolina His speeches counsel pru-
dence and moderation.
Gen. Granville E. Dodge of the Army of
Tennessee, and chief engineer of the U. P. and
Texas Pacific roads, tells GO Gath" that he asked
Gen. Grant the question direct, in Paris If he
would accept the nomination for President.
Grant replied: /" General, that is something not
proper for me to speak about" DOdge'S opinion
Is that the presidency will be rendered to Grant
with such earneStneSS that he cannot refuse it;
and that he would be elected with an Irresistible
whirl
"A correspondent of the Charleston Ne,os and
Courier interviewed Senators Hampton and
Butler, of South Carolina, together the other
day. They both declared themselves unequivo-
cally in favor of Senator Bayard as the demo-
cratic candidate for President next year. Sena-
tor Hampton thought the democratic defeat in
Ohio 'blesstng in disguise" as it will probably
bring about the nomination OF Bayard He eX-
pressed the fear ''from present indications" that
New York would go republican. Mr.. Butler, in
terrupting, said: 81 don't know about that
see from a letter published that Tilden Is on
what correspondent describes as still hunt,
and the old fellow is so smart. and has such lots
0fnOley that it Will be hard for Kelly and Cor
nell both to beat him." They both agree that
the South ought to be solid for Bayard, and
added that what little opposition there Is to him
in that section twill die out"

During the past year, also, unbrOken peace
with all foreign nations, the general prevalence
of domestic tranquility, the supremacy and Sc
curity Of the great institutions Of civil and rel-
gious freedom have gladdened the hearts of our

and courage OF their descendants have so firmly
maintained, to be the habitation of liberty and
justice to successive generations.
Now, therefore. /. Rutherford B. Hayes, Pres
dent Of the United States do appoint Thursday
the twenty-seyenth day OF November instant,
