Foul Brood in Bees.

The Ontario legislature has made a
fine stro Ike in boldly taking in hand the
matter of foul breed in bees This dis
ease is at present the worst enem the
bee farmer has to contend with On
tario has provided a foul brood in
spector whose business it is to go among
the beehives in the province, and where
ever he finds colony of bees that
show symptoms of foul brood he is to
destroy this Immediately. If the in
spector does his duty faithfully, there
fore, this province of Canada will be
free from the scourge of the honey
raisers.
Foul brood shows itself in the cells of
the young bees that have not yet Matched
out. If you look among these sealed
cells and see one with sunken top and
a hole in that top you may know the
foul brood has been at work there. 1t is
now ascertained to be, like almost
everything else, caused by a microbe
that attacks the Larvae of the bee before
it is Matched. It kills the young bee;
then its body decays, causing frightfui
stencil and and the decline and dwind-
ling away of the rest of the colony. If
one of these foul brood cells is opened it
will be found to contain a quantity of
loathsome brown matter
Foul brood seems to begin in the first
place from decaying bee corpses or larvae
in the cells. AS to it's cure writer on
the subject says:
The treatment is simple and hygienic in
character, and is practicable in all movable
comb hives. In the evening remove the bees
and queen from the diseased colony and place
them in a clean hive, with foundation starters
in the frame. Four days afterward take away
all frames of comb and starters from them and
give them full sheets of foundation, or empty
comb which are known to be free from the
faint Of disease The colony is now cured and
will rear brood, healthy and free from the dis
ease until contracted again through the in
gathering of diseased honey or otherwise. The
honey is the chief if not the only medium of
the contagion, and one drop of infected honey
brought into healthy colony, if used for larval
food is sufficient to start the disease. The dis
eased honey may be rendered innocuous by
boiling, and the combs by rendering into wax,
the dross to be buried. To save the healthy
part of the brood taken from diseased colonies
leave enough bees to cover it or give it to queen
bee colonies, and as soon as the healthy brood
is all Matched put the young bees through ex-
actly the same process, give them queen or q
cell and they too are cured.

Points of Interest.

In 1890 2O,000,OO0 pounds less of for
eign wool were imported into this coun-
try than was the case the year before.
It is possible with some care and
trouble for every farmer to have profta-
BILE duck ponds and fish ponds. Given
only a brook that passes through his
farm and does not dry out in summer
and he can work wonders. At intervals
along the stream one may build dams
and excavate ponds. Either pond may
be built alongside the brook and water
conducted into it or the bed of the
stream itself can be damned and exca-
waited. Galvanized wire netting at the
entrance and exit of the water Of the
pond will prevent the escape of fish,
Shade your fish pond and duck pond
with trees, either fruit or nut.
The list of January, 1891, there were
nearly 43,5O0,000 sheep in the United
States. Of these more than half belong

ADVICE TO PLAIN GIRLS.
Find Out Your Prettiest Point and Thsz
Make tho Very MOst of It

Find Out Your Prettiest Point and Thea
Make tho Very Most of It.
It is extremely interesting when three or
four attractive women of fashion, who arc
not too old to be vain and not young enough
to be giddy, get together and exchange con-
f1dences. Their placidity of retrospection
is charming and what they say usually has
point and moral. A group composed Of
few very successful and contented women
Of this kind was assembled at a recent re-
ception. The beauty of a young girl pres
emit had been spoken Of
"When l look at her," said one of the
complacent ladies, II am reminded of the
ease with which all girls can achieve phys
ical success if they will only do little
studying. For years we were telling her
what a pretty mouth she had. It was only
pretty then in crude way, but gradually
she began to make the best of it, and now
the first observation that is made about her
is sure to refer to her expressive and ex-
quisite lips.
"She had far better basis to start on
than another girl of my acquaintance, who
was ambitious to shine as belle. This
girl used to look at herself in a mirror and
frankly acknowledge that she was far from
lovely. No feature was delicate, and her
coloring was commonplace to a degree
Her hair was just the least bit pretty, but
pretty hair is never remarkable. The
young woman had been out nearly whole
season when one night a man said to her
that she had an original and graceful gait
''She was thrilled It was really the first
honest compliment she had ever received.
She thought it over. and then went to work
to discover what it was in her walk that
called forth the admiration of the man.
She soon learned that it was slight swag-
ger, an involuntary swaying OF the hips
and shoulders She accented this swagger
very discreetly, and before long she heard
every one talking about her fascinating
walk. Presently she was flattered by see
ing the greatest beauties attempting to i'm
itate her, but none of them could do it
with the natural grace that she exhibited
She at once began to gain confidence that
hitherto she had lacked. At dances she
was sought after by the best men with the
same assiduity that was inspired by the
handsomest bellies. She bloomed, as a rose
encouraged by the sun and dew will bloom,
and soon she gloried in the finest figure of
her set, as well as the most captivating
walk. She was, as one clever fellow put it.
the most delicious girl in the back that
mortal eye could wish to see 1t would
have been Il joy to watch her walk a thou
sand miles.
''Well, she was the rage, and made one
of the most desirable matches of the year.
And I tell my girls when they complain
that they are not so pretty as some of their
friends, that if they are not clever enough
to hit on some attraction to take the place
of mere bodily loveliness, by the time they
are twenty they won't be worthy, of a
mother who overcame with the utmost
ease such drawbacks as a turned up nose,
stunningly large mouth, and collection
of freckles that would have fitted out a
whole country school of small boys. New
