Bees During the Winter Season.

"Hava you proved it profitable or

MES Of bees in summer stands during the

mits; In other words, do you think any
harm results to a colony from disturbing
their winter nest?' The above query
was recently observed in Gleanings in
Bee Culture by a number Of promi-
nent apIaridns. I. G.. Root said eff
properly arranged and protected, it
is profitable to leave them undisturbed."
Professor A. j. Cook thought it did no
harm to examine the bees when the
weather is warm enough 10 induce free
flight. James Heddon said: Harm or
no harm, / should consider it time
wasted to be opening and examining
bees in winter, as rule" G.. NJ. DOolit-
tie had experienced no bad results from
looking al his bees occasionally in win

The editor of the journal mentioned
said: "Although I have at different
times decided that the less bees were dis
turbed during the winter months the
better, have about as many times de-
Cided that they could be handled with
out any injury when the weather was so

There may be an exception to this, how

Shelter for Stock.

Experience has proven over and over
again that when sheep are exposed to
rough weather, feed them as you may
with the best Of material. they hardly
hold their own; whereas, if placed in a
warm yard or sheltered place with a
straw stack forming two sides to break
the force of winds and storms, the sheen
will thrive, not eat nearly so much and
become ready far earlier for tho butcher
1t is an old saying that an animal well
wintered Is half summered Asto COWS,
if they are kept in their winter quarters
in thriving state, when they go T.
grass, then is the time that their return
OF money will come in.
In many cases farmers have been I'M
able to provide warm, comfortable barns
and outhOuses for their cattle, but with a
little management and expense very
comfortable houses can be made with
rails, poles and stray stacks. Keep the
water well drained from the Yards where
cattle OF any sort ere placed. Swine
fever and other cattle ailments mGy
often be traced to the very unsanitary
condition in which tho animals are
housed Have the walls. sites and sheds
carefully scrapod and whitewashed with
hot lime, and often rinscd down with
water containing some disinfectant.

The principal reason for having corn
cracked is 30 get it small enough SO that
the chickens can swallow it. This is all
very well if the poultry keeper is not too
far from the mill but many cannot pro.
cure cracked corn as often as desirable,
yet have ample facilities for raising corn.
It is for the interest OF such persons to
raise a kind of corn with very small
kernels, especially for chickens. There
arc varieties of popcorn which meet the
case and furnish fair yield. This corn
may be kept an indefinite time without
injury, and the kernels are Of the right
size to be easily swallowed. The Dwarf
Pearl corn has the smallest kernels Of
any variety, and at the same time az
fords stable ears and a goodly number
on stalk, so that it yields well.-Poultry

MAKING BEEF.


Why Butchers Pay More for One Beeve
Than Another of the Same Weight.
Making beef so that the better class of
consumers want it or do not want it, and
consequently so that it may be profitable
or Improbable, is largely matter of
how the bones are covered, says National
Stockman. Two calves-twins. for that
matter-mav he taken from the same
farm by different men, fed the same
length of time, sold at the same age and
in the same market, and command diff
ference of cent or more per pound-for
such things are done every day. How
is this to be accounted for?
The butcher can explain it, and viii
do so by telling you that with practi-
cally the same weight of bones in the
two animals he has in one case a beeve
which will dress sixty pounds or moro
to the hundred weight, while i'll the
other he is glad to make fifty; that one
is rounded out with juicy, tender flesh
worth pound for pound more than that
OF the other, even if the quantity yielded
vas the same; that among people who
know the quality of beef at sight he can
sell one animal i'll half the time he can
get rid of the other; that while he is in
dependent of any but cash customers in

rancid lard, personally supcrintend try
ing it out This is an important opera
ton, and a neglect to do it properly
brings in a short tine unpleasant results.
Much patience is necessary, for lard
ought to be tried out over slow fire and
remain over it until the scraps become
crisp and brown and all the watery par
ticl6s are evnp0roted. 1t must not be al
lowe. TO get too hot and scorch, for this
scorched taste cannot be got nd of after
wards. Leaf lard and the fat pieces may
as well be tried together, but the fat from
the intcstines ought TO be tried by itself,

GOOD lard. Lard should be carefully
strained so as to take out all membran-
GUS particles before it goes into the jars.

FARM AND GARDEN.
INFORMATION ABOUT A VARIETY OF
PRACTICAL SUBJECT.
An illustrated Description of the Model
Horse FOR General business or Road
Driving-Bees During the winter
shelter for Stock-Maiing Beel.

The diversity which exists in nature is
as marked in the breeding of horses as
in any other species of animal life, says
as high authority as Professor William
Russell. 1t is evident, therefore, that
the standard by which we judge of the
merits of one class is not applicable TO
any other class. As, for instance, the
points by which we determine the per
feet draught horse are not critcria by
which we are governed in our Judgment
of fleet courser or the trotting horse.
In the determination, therefore, Of a
model, one is confined to the structural
points only and not to The consideration
of questions of breeding.

In the illustration here reproduced
from Professor Rus5ells useful work
entitled Scientific HorseshoeinG" is
shown no particular horse, but faithful
portraiture in one animal of all the
points which are conceded by those who
have knowledge upon the subject to be
indispensable in a well balanced horse.
Such horse will be free from stumbling,
interfering or forging. The horse is
symmetrical: the chest is full; the shout
ders prominent; strong and well set
back; tho forearm is muscular, and the
foreleg well tapered from stitle to foot:
the hook is strong and the knee full and
broad, and if to this be ADDED small noz-
zles expanded nostrils and forehead
broad between the eyes, we have the
marks of 4 model horse.
In general, the position as noted in
the above illustration is admitted by
horsemen to indicate soundnes5 in every
part Of the organism of the horse and
perfect strength in shoulder, forearm,
hind quarters, hook and loin.
There are 2+1 separate bones in the
skeleton of the horse, uniting by joints to
form the spine, thOrax, pelvis, tail, fore
and hind eXtremities. Professor Russell
sums these w as follows:

A good many theories have been in

many people, but those who have given

what were supposed to be male and fe-
male eggs to the test Of Matching, have
quite generally arrived at the conclusion
that there is no other way of determin-
ing the question.
