THE A,PIARY.
AniarY Notes.

ALMOST everybody can get bees of
some sort near home; and all you have
to do is to get such a queen as you want,
by mail; and queens are carried by mail
safer and quicker than hives of bees,
even by express.
IT is always best if you find that 8
colony has nearly finished a case of Sec
tions, and then have done but very little
for two or three days, to remove it at
once and give them case of empty Sec
tions, as they might not finish it in
several days.
SORGHUM molasses will do for spring
feeding whenever the bees fly freely;
that is, providing the bees will pay any
attention to it. Unless the quality of
the sorghum is quite good, and no
honey of any sort is to be had in the
fields, bees will seldom work on it.
G. NJ. DooL1TTLE, in answer to the
question, What price ought to be paid
for colony of Italian bees in NOV
able-frame hive?" says in Gleanings:
Much depends upon the season of the
year, and the condition of the colony.
They are usually sold at from 81 to So in
the fall. aad from So to $40 in the
spring. The reason for the difference
in price is that, of late years, there
seems to be much risk in wintering,
nearly seventy-tive per cent. of the bees
throug hout ali the United States being
lost during one or two of our worst win
tiers, while the average loss for the past
fifteen years has not been much less
than twenty per cent. If ten or more
colonies are purchased of one party, the
price should not be above the lowest
figures given, for each colony. In an
average season, and in favorable local
ity, such colony of bees should give
fifty pounds Of honey, besides one good
swarm. The honey would readily bring
10 cents per pound, or SIS, and the swarm
should be worth 81 without the hive, in
the fall, which would nearly give the
purchaser his money back, even if he
lost the old colony, or SO per cent. of
his bees, during the next winter.

THE POULTRY YARD.
A Few Suggestions.

Daily outdoor exercise or free range
is the best advice we can give those who
want fertile eggs and strong chickens.
The past winter has been favorable for
all kinds of poultry; the fowls have
been out on the bare ground every
week. The nom Matching of eggs will
not be as common complaint as last
spring. Hens that lay early usually set
early; some hens are often broody after
laying fewer eggs than others. we
could never succeed in making our hens
sit until they were inclined to do so.
Some of them will sit most anywhere,
while others will sit standing II re-
moved from their accustomed seat.
Last month we had pullet that was
LAYING on an exhibition coop i'll the hen
house. Becoming broody, she would
NOT SET where we wanted her to. So we
owe to her whims, and let her have
Twelve eggs to incubate in a nest of hay

made from corn ana oAt meal Wei
cooked. If they get all they will eat of
this feed five times day at regular in
teryals until they are, five or six weeks
old. YOU need not worry US to their
growth. Wheat we'll soaked in boiling
water is good for change. The chicks
hatched before the warm weather do the
best; they will endure the cold cold better
than the heat of summer.-Farm, Field,
