The stock market was a little more active to-
day, but increased business was confined to
transactions of the first hour, after which the
market was comparatively dull, dealings for
other hours scarcely equang those of the first
hour The tone of the market was again quite
feveriSh and indications OF free realiZatlons
were plentiful, notwithstanding buying prices
failed to advance to any marked extent.
Traders many of whom have lately been upon
the bull side Of the marke, were free sellers all
around the room, but London was buyer, as
was also Chicago, ana the pressure eHerted
upon the list served to keep prices from ad-
vancing much, but made some impression
Louisville and Nashville bought freely by for
eigners and it is the only stock showing
marked Improvement this evening. There was
a good deal of talk about cable settlement, but
no progress was reported and bears were aided
by the report Of a strike upon Northwestern
and Burlington and Quincy, but buying toward
the close took on q more confident character
and some covering was done by traders.
ST. Paul Western Union and Reading were the
center OF attraction, but very decided move

among which Milwaukee Lake Shore and
Western were the most conspicuous, advancing

is properly attended to at this important
period, the bees will need but
little attention until warm weather,
when we can safely feed syrups OF
any kind. From early spring until the
honey-fow, it pays we'll to feed every
colony little daily, even if they have
abundance of honey in the hive. 1t
stimulates brood rearing, and it is only
by such judicious feeding that we can
bring a colony up to the highest condl-
ton. It is from such that we reap the
richest reward during the honey season.
Such colonies are usually ready to swarm
two weeks earlier than others, and power.
full swarms result instead of 'hatfulls." "
Whether bees are wintered in cellars or
in chatf hives, they should remain In
their winter quarters until settled warm
weather comes in, which may be from
the middle to the last of April, and some
times even later. This is an important
matter to beginners especially, as the
veteran has learned probably from sad
experience. Bees may be in the best pos
sible condition, but if exposed outside
too early, and caught in cold snaps,
spring dwindling will be almost sure to
follow. Bees, when wintered in cellars,
are much worse in this respect than those
packed outside. In replacing bees upon
their summer stands from the cellar, a
fine day should be chosen, and but few
colonies set out at once. These should
he allowed to take fight before setting
out others, as too many flying become
confused a. II. Duff, in american Ag-

Salt DnSt of the Sea.

While voyagiug from Australia to
New Zealand, one of the passengers, a
lady, complained that the dust of the
sea caused her eyes to smart, and had
also soiIed her clothing. She was
laughed at by the other passengers, who
insisted that there could be no dust at
sea.
"They were mistaken" says Mr..
Ba!lou, who tells the incident in book
of travel. "There is a salt dust which
rises from the spray, and imrregnates
every thing, even filing ones mouth with
a saline taste. While the sun shines,
this deposit, like the dew 90 land, is
less active and perceptible; bit TO walk
the deck at night is to become covered
with thin coating of salt dust, SO fine
as to be hardly noticeable, but which in
time brcomes sufficiently crystalized to
be obvious to the eye. The dust of the
sea is no fable. The officer who stands
his night watch on the bridge will testify
to this fact; and his cabin steward will
tell you that he has often to resort to
something more potent than whisk-
broom to cleanse clothing which has
been exposed to sea-dust."

Feeding Bees in Spring.

1t is an old saying and true one, that
1t ta';es more honey to spring bees than
to winter them. The only opportunity
for putting things to rights for spring
is during those fine days when the bees
are flying freely, as it is very damaging
to handle them at any time duing cold
weather. 1t is always very troublesome
to furnish feed to bees in mid winter
Yet, if we have neglected the matter in
autumn, we can still provide for them,
but in different manner. 1t will not
do to feed liquids of any kind during
winter. The feed must be supplied in
the form of good, well sealed combs of
honey, or candy made from the best
quality of sugar. This candy is as good
in every respect as honey, and many
think better. It is made by boiling
granulated sugar to which water has
been added, and molding.. it into cakes
or slabs of any desired form. This is
placed on top of the frames of comb,
where the bees have access to it at all
times. A heavy packing must be ap
piled outside the entire hive to econo-
mize the heat, so that the bees may
cluster about the candy. If this matter
