BEE NOTES.

Colonies should be very strong in
order to make the most of the har-
vest of this month. Any colony that
has not a prolific queen should be
supplied with one. Divide colonies
that are preparing to swarm. Shade
is very important at midday and mid
summer. A very convenient method
is by means of screens, or shutters,
m ade of light material, nailed to
strips which will rest upon the top of
the hive and leave an air space be-
tween that and the screen. The
screen should be large enough to
shade the hive in the hottest part of
the day. To prevent their being
blown off, place stone upon each,
sufficiently heavy to hold it in place.
Where robbing is suspected close
the entrance so that the occupants of
the hive can guard it. Two triangu-
lar pieces of inch boards, placed at
the entrance TO the hive allow the en-
trance to he contracted or widened
by moving them nearer or farther
apart.
This is the month of the harvest
from white clover, though it may ex-
tend into next month. The AlsIke
clover il growing in favor with bee
keepers as rival to white clover,
and, as it is valuable for hay, farm
ers should be encouraged to sow it.
The fruit trees and shrubs yield a
great amount of honey, especially
the raspberry and blackberry, both
cultivated and wild forms, and the
nectar afforded by these is highly es-
teemed. Where teasels are cultlva-
ted they yield an abundant supply to
the bees, and the wild teasel, very
common along the roadsides in some
localities, is useful in this respect
A watch should always be kept for
the destructive bee moth, or rathe
it's larva. Wherever. in working
among the bees, a web is seen, follow
it up and remove the worm an(
kill it. This is the season when stock:
may be increased by division or arti
fetal swarming. Every bee keepe
should have one of the STANDARD
works upon agriculture, in which h
will find artificial swarming fully de
scribed. 1t will require too mucl
in the paper to give the method here

PLENTY OF POTATO BUGS

Two or three years ago it was re-
ported the potato bug was disappear
inc in the west in the line of its adj
vance eastward on its first appear
ance. In 1883 inquiries were sent
out by the Ohio experiment station,
to which 307 replies were received,
304 of which reported diminishing
number of bugs. 1t appeared even
here that the curse has somewhat
abated, and hopes were entertained
that it might in time entirely dis
appear but the prospect that this
will occur soon is not at present very
encouraging. We have never seen
the bugs much plentier at this season.
We hope they may not be as plenty
every where as they appear in this
locality. Here a dose of poisson
before the vines get large will be all
that will save the potato crop from
serious damage or total destruction.
Do not believe what some high sci
entihc autho rity has said-that it is
only the larvae, not the old bugs, that
feed on the plant, and therefore it
is useless to apply Paris green or
London purple before the larvae
appear-but use the poison while
the plants are small. The old bugs
feed on the leaves and are killed by
the poison. The leaves are already
quite ragged where no larvae can be

Animals deprived of salt do not
look as well nor wear as sleek
coats as those that have a full and
regular supply. If 1t is placed where
they have access to it at will, no
animal will eat too much. But if fed
irregualarly, and allowed to 60 with
out salt for long periods, there is
great danger of animals eating
enough to do them injury. In such
cases, great care should be taken in
feeding it, that an over dose be not
taken. But the better way is to avoid
such danger by keeping Il constant
supply of salt within reach of the
stock. Rock salt in large Jumps for
the animals to lick, IS the best form
in which to give it. But it should be
placed where 1t will be sheltered
from the rain or snow. Sheds for
the shelter of stock are proper places
in which to prove it. AS farmers
have just turned their cattle to grass
we call their attention to the subject
of sailing and to its Importance. Do
not depend on throwing them hand
full once week or SO, through the
summer. In such case if you give
enough for the herd, the strong ones
will get to much and the weak ones
to little. The better way is to pro-
vide supply of salt accessible at all
times. This is the safe and wise
plan, saving care and trouble, and
securing the best results to the
stock.

A New Woman Craze in the East.

little fodder plant has been discovered that

$50 the Season of 1886.

This elegantly -bred stallion was purchased when
yearling by the late Mr.. Benz. E. Bates, for $1,000
expressly to take the place of his renowned sire
the Bates Farm. As will be seen by the following
statement of pedigree, he is full of Ethan Allen and
Abdallah blood, his sire, Daniel Lambert, being the
best son of old Ethan Allen out of Fanny Cook by
Abdallah, (sire of Rysdyk's Hambletonian) while
his dam, Clara, is daughter of Ethan out of the DR.
Dixon mare, also by Abdallah 1t is therefore not
to be wondered at that he looks and like
Daniel Lambert than any other fhis offspring HIS
color nice chestnut, he stands Is hands and
weighs 1000 lbs, with the most beautiful style,
ton and disposition Imaginable His record of
22Sa was made Nov. l, 1883, after brief prepare
ton and an unfavorable day He has shown full
mile trials in 223s, and quarters in "a seconds.
The superiority of the Lambert stock is too well
known to require elaborate explanation. Daniel
Lambert is the first of living sres, judged by
the true test, the 2.3o list, and his
showing remarkable prepotency Golden as a
stock horse will in due time add to his sres fame.

untes the best blood of the Morgans with that of
the Clays. The latter the leading horses of
the day. 1t is Il well-known fact among horse
breeders that it is by crossing with Clay that
other popular breeds have got their thunder
Cassius Chief has without any humbugging, proved
himself unequaled rs stock horse.

To Whom it May Concern:
This may certify that am acquainted with Mr..
David Hazen's stock horse, and know his sire and
DAM and have one of his colts and have seen quite
a number of them. | consider him one of the best
stock horses in my knowledge. He is horse that
size, muscular strength and great powers of endur-
ance. L can cheerfully recommend him to breeders
of horses. L consider him better stock horse than
his sire, Cassius Clay. j. S. WOOD.
The Hazen Stallion is a very promising horse and
a very fine stopper, and also IA good getter, which
has been proved in this vicinity by his stock.

predicted and fully expected by the Re
publican managers of Ohio county,
that they would carry the October election
at all points. They relied upon
some little chickering's and contentious
among ,he Democrats before and after the
convention, but the yeomanry of the party
closed up their ranks and fought with an
enthusiasm that resulted in sweeping the
platter clean. Not even q taste OF official
sweets did the Republicans get in the en-
tire county from the highest to the lowest
Office.
This year the only feeling that has been
akin to dissatisfaction in the Democratic
Marty resulted from the distribution OF the
federal patronage. That has been dis
posed of and with it about all the feeling,
whatever it might be, that was engender-

S---
DUTY OF TO-DAY'S CONVENTION.
Seldom have the Democrats of the First
Congressional District had n more import
ant work before them than the convention
at ClaIksburg to-day.
The Democrats have majority OF the
votes of this district The question at the
convention to-day is to nominate 4 man
who will bring out the entire Democratic
vote. If this is done, success IS certain.
But if not there is chance OF the
Republicans again carrying the district.
The candidates mentioned are NJ. L.
FRAME, ESD, ex-Judge JOHN BRANSoN,
Col. Ben WILSON, Col. DAN JOHNSON and
Hon. l.. S. NEWMAN, all good men. But
there is some one among them who can
make a more telling canvass and bring out
the Democratic vote better than any OF the
others.
The convention then should act with
treat Judgment to-day The district must
be redeemed from Republican domination.
West Virginia can rs well have four Dem
Ocratic Congressman as three. We shall
expect this result to be effected by the ac-
ton of the Democrats at Clarksburg to-
day.
