Feed the Bees.

Those who have stocks of bees in
doubtful condition, as regards supply
of food for the winter. should take adj
vantage of the first spell of moderate
weather to give them an extra supply.
Even if they have already enough lit
tie candy fed to them will do good and
help them in raising broods, as we be-
lieve variety is equally good for them
as for any other of our live stock. The
best feed for our bees for mid-winter Is
candy made of grape sugar and coffee
A sugar mixed in proportions of three
pounds of grape to one of coffee A. Put
the grape sugar in a tin dish or iron pan
on a slow stove. Do not put any water
IN 1t Ohe grape sugar holds enough
water, as you will soou fnd). Keep well
stirred until all Is melted, then add the
coffee sugar and mix thoroughly. Allow
the mixture to cool until it begins to
stitfen, then pour into shallow wooden
trays (ours are about five by six inches,
and one and half inches deep filling
within half an inch of the top. In twen-
ty-four or thirty-six hours the candy
will be ready to invert over the cluster
of bees in the hive. Replace the enam-
eled cloth and chatf cushion, tucking all
down snug, and they will be safe for
some time. For feeding in spring, say
after the first of March, add TO the mix
ture half pound of wheat -four; this
will stimulate brood rearing, and in place
of using shallow trays, take broad
frame and tack piece of wood on one
side, making tray of that, and fill with
the candy; it can then be hung in the
hive lii . frame of comb at the outer
edge of brood nest, and will do more
toward encouraging the bees in raising
brood than anything else you can do.

A SONG.
BY STELLA C. AIKESs.

Ger wooded slopes traced my steps:
had no friend, l walked alone:
Yet not alone, thrice blessed word
For high above In azure deeps
/ followed, calm, a wondrous bird
she swept far down to thrill my breast
she scared aloft 10 brave the clouds
Then windward due. She knew no rest
" For this" cried have forsgon
The treacherous world the traitorous friend
For this choose my path apart
lhat love this wondrous bird may send;
But as spake, from out the wood
A huntsman fierce strobe into sight
de wore no smiles. he courted frowns.
His brow gave heed of cruel might
high, high he raised his rounded bow.
Inc hunters greed the arrow fed;
III cleft the air II found home:
Down, down to earth she fiut,ered dead
wicked deed wicked world
The crown of patience cometh late
There is no spot for two alone;
There Is one dead and one to wait

RULES OF DESCENT.
BIZ t. D. DAVIDSON,

II one dies owning an estate,
III hneally must gravitate.
If but one heir, 1t will annex
To him or ha- in spite of sex:
If there be more, as we'll there may,
They all shall take "per CAPITA"
But if degrees perchance there be,
or different consangutnity,
AS sons and grandsons all shall take,
And an estate In common make:
But such grandsons have cause to fear it:
They'll not an iteri more inherit
Than would have been their fathers share, o
Had he been the living heir.
But if the owEer meets his fate
No lineal heir to his estate,
We've dared the common law to mend,
And his estate shall not ascend
Again: in case the owner do
Lack issue and lack parents too,
His brothers aud his sisters shall
Succeed by rules collateral.
II brothers, sisters, nephews, nieces.
They then will take in equal pieces:
If some be dead, some living be.
They'll take by nearness of degree,
And in default of father, mother,
And nephews, nieces, sisters, brothers.
Or issue, the estate can't fall
But yet it will rise above them all.
Again: and il perchance there shall
Be no descendants lineal-
Ii parents, brothers, sisters, none,
With their descendants meath the sun,
Nor the grandparents, the estate
Shall, by unerring legal fate,
Unto the aunts and ulcles wend.
And those who from them may descend.
If equally related, they
viii take their part "per capita.n
But If in different degrees,
They al shall take "per stripes"
Provided, if the intestate had
Derived his living from his dad,
1t shall to aunts and uncles shoe,
And issue on the fathers side:
And If none such there be perchance,
Then to the uncles and the aunts,
On the maternal side twill go;
And this rule works Sc CONVERSE
This 8th last rule, 1t seems to me,
ls rather stiff for poetry.

Snow as u Protection

however dlsagreeable it NAV be To
have the ground covered with two feet
IN depth with snow, it is one of the best
protectors which the farmer has. consjd-
erlng how little it costs. When the land
Is covered IN the autumn, and it lies all
winter, 1t serves as great protection to
the grass roots, and to all creeping
vines. Strawberry plants that have been
covered all winter with snow, come out
IN the spring fresh and green. even
though they have not been mulched.
The snow not only protects the yege-
tatlon which 1T covers up, by sheltering
1t from the cold winds and sudden
changes of weather, but it prevents the
frequent freezing and thawlng of the
ground, which is SO destructive to small
roots that are near the surface, and
which are often lifted entirely out of the
ground by the action of the frost. When
the land lays open and exposed all win
ter, 1t not only Injuries the grass and
small plants, but it Injuries the land
itself, by blowing away the finer par
tlcles ofdecayed vegetation from the sur
face, and when thus exposed there is q
chance for the frost to enter the ground
to the depth of several feet, thus cooling
the earth to great. depth, requiring
many warm days in the spring to thaw
it out, and warm it up sufficient to start
vegetation; but when deep snow covers
the land until spring opens, as soon as
the snow melts, the ground being free
from frost, will soon be in condition to
cultivate, and for plants to grow.
AS rule, the season comes forward
earlier when the ground has been cover
ed with snow the entire winter, than it
does when there has been but little
snow. In our climate no doubt it is best
to have plenty of snow, and have it lay
ON the ground during period Of cold
weather. This year we have started with
a good covering of snow; should it be re-
plenlshed as fast as needed to keep the
land covered, we may look for good
crops of grass next season, and spring
that will be favorable for planting farm
crops; keeping this in view, we can dig
our paths with more cheerfulness, and
resort to rubber boots to keep the snow
out, with feeling that there is bright
side to snow-storm, without resorting
to merry sleigh parties or mingle with
the jolly coasters. - Massachusetts
