Do Bees Work or Only Gather Honey?
A. J. Root, authority on all bee matters,
gives this answer to the question so often
asked, "Do bees make honey, or do they
only gather ity" In other words, do
they add to, take from or change over
nectar as they get it from the flowers?
l think we may safely say that there is
practically no difference or no change
There are some scientists and professors
who insist that the bees do change the
nectar in carrying it from the flowers to
the hives enough SO that it can be de-
tected by the chemist In order to get
unfinished sections filed up at the end
of the season we have fed to the bees
different kinds of honey; but after being
sealed up in the comb it was exactly the
same honey to all appearances.
By accident we scorched one lot lit
tie. and hoped that the bees in their
manipulation might remove the slightly
burnt taste. They did not, however,
change it particle. Again, we once
had a lot of honey that candied so read
lily that we could scarcely keep it in
liquid form at all. We melted it. added
some water, and fed it to the bees. They
evaporated the water added, placed
it in their combs and sealed it up, but it
candied after being sealed up in the
combs just as it did before we fed it to
them, and have never been able to de-
tect that they improved poor honey in
any way. neither have been able to de-
tect that any injury was done; or, in
fact, that any change perceptible to any
Of our senses was wrought by any Of
their manipulations.

Important Points in Horseshoeing.

Important Points in Horseshoeing.
The Kentucky Stock Farm is author
ity for the following: The farrier too
often makes horse his patient for life
by ruthlessly cutting way the elastic
cushion called the frog, which is nat
ure's natural support for the great
hexor tendon. This cushion is natures
provision to support the center of the
horses foot, to take off the strain from
the sensitive lamin@ with which the
hoof is connected with the foot, to pre-
vent the extreme depression and conse-
quent strain on the fexor tendon, and
to break the conclusion caused by the
horses great weight coming so rapidly
to the ground. When once severely cut
away the frog never entirely RECEIVERS it's
original efficiency, and it will be very
long time before it will be even moder-
ately useful
enamel covering our finger nails, which
covers the whole Of the outside of the
colts hoof. and effectually retains it's
moisture and suppleness, is rasped away
to make his foot fit the shoe and to give
it round and uniform shape Thus
two of natures most important provis-
ions to secure an elastic tread are ruth
lessly destroyed and the horse compelled
henceforth to stump and jar away with
his sensitive foot and loaded sinews rest
ing entirely on the dried and unyielding
crust of his hoof, made still more I'M
yielding by being nailed to an iron ring.

Cuban Annexatiesisss Looking to . uaisa
With the Unitsd Ssates-Advaatages Of
Annexation.
HAVANA, Dec. 29.-The excitement
caused by Senator Calls resolution in
favor Of the acquisition of Cuba by the
United States has not subsidized. It
increases if any thing, although not so
openly displayed. A cablegram from
Madrid tends to keep up the anxiety
and showing that the prevailing opiHion
in the mother country is that the
United States Government, although
appearing to be Indifferent, is aiming
at annexation. The liberal party in
>pain is taking advantage of the
situation and is pressing the Govern
ment to grant Cuba all the liberties and
privileges she claims and thus secure
her fidelity and defeat the claims of
the anneXatiOnistS. In Cuba Calls
motion has taken hold not only of pro-
fessed anIeXatiOnistS, who are in larger
numbers here than is generally
supposed, but also of vast
majority of the Cuban peope,
who profoundly believe that it
was presented in the Senate in ac-
cOrdance with some secret resolution
passed in the Pan-American congress,
which is the bette nOir of the loyal
spanish party. The Hidalgos be ieving
Spain to be still the Spain of the Fiji
teenth century never cease to declare
that 1.-The ever-faithful island" is not
for sale, that there is not enough treas
ure i'll the wOr to buy her, that force
can not take her. and that Spain would
spend her last d,llar and sacrifice her
last soldier to maintain the integrity of
her territory. They contemptuOusly
ignore the possibility IF Cuba going
over to the United States of her own
accord, yet the party in favor OF such
action is growing every day. 1t en-
braces all the iber Il and discontinued
elements of the population with pow
erful nucleus of the cd republican
part, which has made many efforts to
establish the independence of the ISL
and. All now see their only hope is in
the I'm ted States. They claim
1SlHlAO 10 we'll OWttO VI VIC
pOrtance of Cuba to Spain, and are Con-
WINGED that before long Cuba will enter
the American confederation. where her
commercial interests and political as
pirations lie. The plundering and
ruinous administration of employees
whom the Spanish Government sends
to Cuba have greatly increased the
public discomfort, and has converted
with the annexatiOnists large number
of rich Spaniards belonging to the con-
sentative party, who see their fortunes
melting away through steady deprecia-
ton of property of all kinds. All these
disaffected elements only neei to he
united under strong hand to make
the annexation sentiment of the coun-
try tell. Then Cuba would fall rs
naturally to the United States as IA ripe
pear to the ground. One of the stlOng-
est incentives of the patriotic annexa-
tiOnists to a union with their great
neighbor is that their fair island may
be saved from the grasp of negroes and
the fate of Hayti and San Domingo.
to Which it is tending.
