DRAGON FLY, ADULT, AND LARvE.
devils darning needles, snake feeders,
mosquito hawks and various other
names. The English sometimes term
them horse stingers, and the Scotch fly
ing adders. The French speak Of them
as demoiselles or ladies, while the Ger
mans have called them ''virgins Of the
water" These flies undergo certain
changes during their life. The adults
deposit eggs usually just beneath the
surface of the water on some reed or
rubbish. These eggs soon hatch into
small larvae, which live in the water,
preying upon other animals, and gradu-
ally growing in size.
When one of these dragon fly larvae
becomes a pupa it remains active and
does not differ much from its larval form,
moving about as vigorously as before.
In short time after it has become a
pupa, however, it ascends some reed or
ledge until it is above the water level,
and its skin splits along the back, the
adult dragon fly crawls out, suns itself
as its wings expand and finally flies away
These dragon flies rank high among
the classes of beneficial insects Both in
their young and adult stages they de-
stroy large numbers of mosquitoes ana
similar pests, and they doubtless render
much more service to man than they are
generally given credit for, according to
Popular Gardening, authority for the
foregoing.
Wintering Bees.
A IN, Tho
Journal has the following to say on
wintering bees:
have the bees all ready for winter
before the nights get SO cold and frosty
as to candy the honey in the hive. We
winter our bees in an underground cellar,
40 feet long, feet high and feet wide,
with 6x7 inch ventilator near each
end; also three well fitting doors, which
leave two dead air spaces between the
bees and the extremely cold weather,
with the mercury often 40 dogs. below
zero in this northern climate. When
you put the bees into the cellar remove
the cover and entrance blocks, leaving
only the quilt over the hive Put two
blocks (2x2 inches and the length of the
hive) under the hive, then put two more
on top, ON which to put another hive,
and so on until they are five tiers high.
One essential thing is half inch en-
trance, full width Of the hive, and left
open; by SO doing there will be plenty
of upward and lower ventilation, and
the bees will not smother or lack in any
way for pure air. The bottom hive
should not be less than ten inches from
the bottom of the cellar, to allow the
foul air, if any, to settle below it and
pass off through the underground drain,
which should consist of not less than
two inch thing. Bees placed in a cellar
as | have described, with temperature
ranging from 40 to 45 dogs, viii winter
as safely as by any other method, chaff
hive not excepted. The temperature
can easily be regulated by slide in
each ventilator-not. q toboggan slide,
but sliding door

the nrst trial trip of the cable railway sys-
TEN was made in San Francisco. The in

seventeen years, there are forty-four cable
railways in the United States. In August,
lisa, the nrst electric railway vas started
in Cleveland. Ohio, on the Bently knight
conduit system. To-day. after six wears.
there are 43 electric railways in operation
or under construction IN this country.
These cures would seem 10 indicate that
the electric railway has advantages which
the cable has not The one great adyant-

grades which are i1surmountable BY other
systems. but this advantage Is rapidly
