roots have been injured. Whether
they have been injured or not, 1t IS
advisable to cut the branches back
more or less according to the size OF
the plant.
T. Carefully avoid exposing the
roots to the wind or sun during
transportation or at any other
time. No other neglect is so pro-
life in causing failures as this.
There are 100000 beehives in
the United States. Every hive
yields on an average little over
twenty-five pounds of honey, and IS
sold at twenty-five cents pound.
So that after paying for their board,
our bees present us with revenue
of $8,000,OO0 To reckon another
way, they make a clear gift of ID,
of pure honey to every man, woman
and child in the United States. In
1860 over 22,333.342 pounds Of wax
was made and given to US by these
industrious workers An agricul-
tural exchange says the keeping of
bees is one Of the most profitable
investments that people can make
of their money. The profits arising
from sales of surplus honey average
from so to 200 per cent of the CAPT
tai invested.

Farmers Risks.

WndC TO count on. lHcy Call d.
ways tell how much provender to
provide and how much stock to keep.
There are seldom any such great
climatic changes, as in some parts
of the West, to bring calamity up
on whole States.
A former citizen of Wood County,
E. J. johnson, son of Joshua, who
has been for several years herding
cattle in Kansas, writes a woeful
picture of the loss and suffering
among the stock ranches in that
State, from cold and starvation,
caused by the deep snow burying
the grass out of reach of the cattle.
A great many of Johnson's herd
have persisted, and the rest are on
the point of starvation. Clawson
Parker, who went from Long Reach,
Tyler county, also sustains heavy
loss, in cattle.
The herds in their pinching hun
ger and suffering from cold, drifted
for shelter into the railroad cuts,
stopping trains till the dead and
dying could be removed from the
track and again, to get away from
the driving SHOWS, they would
crowd together under banks of
streams, andupon the ice, till hun
dreds of them would break through
and drown.
West Virginia farmers, who have
healthy, well-cared-for stock, with
plenty of shelter and provender,
will not consider the prospect
Westward, particularly inviting.
1t is estimated that the Washing
ton county, Pa, farmers have still
on hands a million pounds of last
years wool clip. This shows the
substantial independence of a sheep
growing community. The bust
ness brings such thrift as enables
producers to hold their products
at will, for better market.
James Morrison, Tyler county,
recently brought home a nice lot of
stock cattle which he purchased in
Ohio.

A FARMERS OFFsET.-A "hired
man" who had been employed
on farm for several months
entered suit against his
employer, the other day, for balance
of wages, amounting, as he claimed,
to $32. The suit was on trial be-
fore Justice Alley, recently, and it
looked at first as though the plain
tiff had clear case. He gave dates
and figures in straightforward way
and seemed very honest young
man. When the farmer took the
stand, he said:
81 claim an offset for that $32.
No man need sue me for what hon

What is your offset p asked the
lawyer.

IDLE EXPERIMENTS. When man is well
and sound he can afford to be indifferent to
the character of all the medicine in the world
But when disease is fairly eating him up, he
must do something at once and do it intelli-
gently. Therefore, do not dose yourself with
a hundred things in the hope that some of
them may hit the mark, but try DR.. David
Kennedy's favorite HemedyD which hits It
every time. For kidney and liver troubles,
piles and constipation, it is just what you
want. Druggists have it, or mail one dollar
