AN uNMITlGATED PEST.


Tho Mah Who Pcrsistcntly Solici.s One
for Dime.
Itsra hard matter te-refusc man
the loan of dime, isn't it, and yet
there is such an army of chronic dime
borrowers lurking about the highways
and byways that if one gives heed to
but small percentage of them the
first he knows he is out of pocket to the
extent of dollar or more. These dime
borrowers are an unmitigated nuisance.
The sum they ask of you is paltry
to be sure, but if it be true that
"many micklc makes a muckle" it is
equally true that ten dimes make
dollar, and that is more money than
most of us can afford to throw away on
set of blatherskitc dead beats. Quite
good many of these chronic dime bor-
rowers are men who have seen better
days, and who have finally drifted
down very near the ditch by reason of
their own weakness, if not vices. Work
they will not, and SO they lie in wait for
busy men who have no time to parley
with them. and who contend that it is
cheaper to give them dime than it is
to argue the matter with them. Then,
again, there is another reason why it
ISN'T pleasant to remain long in close
proximity to these borrowing friends
they drink three gent beer, they eat
onions and they/chew tobacco, and if
that isn't a combination for you, why
don't know what l am talking about.
But what pains me more than giving
up dime to one OF these scalawags is

The time required to properly fatten
sheep depends somewhat on their age

SHEEP digest their food more thor
oughly than most farm stock and hence

results.
If any of the sheep get wounded

and put on turpentine and then coat

The good that sheep will do in keep
ing down the weeds in the pastures and

it should be.
SHEEP will thrive better If they can
be given change of pastures occasion

will pay better than one.
LAMBS, wool, mutton and manure are
the four essential points of sheep rails

Coon wethers will give you every
year for four years wool enough to half

If you have not clover hay do not de-

take more grain to keep the flock up,
and a run at the hay until the grass on
the pastures is well matured in the
spring is valuable for sheep.

mean, uncharitable set, us women Of
tn, Bend, and I'm not saying that
was a whit better than the rest; but
do think that there has been change
for the better since sweet Olive North
came among MS. 1t was a new place
and times hard, and we couldn't afford
all the nccessaries of life, much less its
luxuries, and hard work and privation
made us bitt"r and ill-tc.n .-ctcl. When
j tell you that only two families in all
the neighborhood were able to take
paper, and books were as scarce as
hens teeth" among MS, you may reckon
that intelligence and refinement were
ut n low cbb; but, la. it would not have
been safe for anyone to have told a
Bender that he or she was not as good
or as smart as the next one, and if there
was one thing that we dislikcd more
than our own hardships and privations
1t was the person who had not suffered
in like kind and measure.
When Judge North came among us
with his old maid sister and motherless
daughter, it did not take us long to see
that they were different from the rest
of us, and different in way that we
resented. II they had been poorer or
more ignorant than ourselves we could
have welcomed them with open arms,
but Miss North, though not in the least
naughty, was dignified and intellectual
looking, and Olive -well, she was pret-
tier, smarter and sweeter than any
other girl in the place, and VIC couldn't
help seeing it, and hated her accord
ingly.
III the judges folks had been extrav
Rgant in dress or naughty in manners,
or anything of the kind, there would
have been some excuse for our feelings
toward them, but they were plain and
simple and tried to be friendly. and
that seemed to make us dislike them
the more.
l remember the first time ! saw Olive
come into church. She wore simple
white linen lawn without bit of orna-
ment except bit of hemstitching she
had done herself, and her black straw
hat had only purple lining and a
bunch OF violets; but dress and hat were
fine Of their kind, and | couldn't help
seeing the contrast between her and
Rosy Watts. who had been considered,
till then, the prettiest girl in the neigh
borhood. Rosy's dress was white, too,
but it had thick stripe and thin one
and yards of lace and ribbon, cheap, of
course, but, altogether, making her
dress cost more than Olives. Then her
hat was perfect posey garden of
flowers mixed with gay ribbons, and
her bangs curled so tight you might
think it the reason her nose turned up.
IS I'd always thought Rosy pretty till
then, but now, somehow, | began to
feel she lacked, what all Of us lacked,
and ] pitied Rosy and-yes, l hated
Olive. L had some advantages in my
young days, when / was growing up,
but felt now that had lost ground
and had slipped to a lower level than
such as she, and don't know whether
hated her because it was SO, or be-
cause she caused me to<realize it; but
anyway, good Christian though was,
hated her.

Der as start for the queen fill out
the brood chamber with empty combs
Full frames Of foundation, or even
starters may be used. When the man
ipulation is completed, the colony has
all of its brood with the queen. only its
condition is somewhat altered. The
queen has now a new brood nest below
the excluder, while the combs of brood
are in the center of the super with the
sides filed out with empty combs above
the queen excluder. In twenty -one
DAYS all the brood will be Matched ont
above the excluder, and the bees will
begin to hatch in the queens chamber
below it; so a continuous succession of
young bees is obtained. For extracted
honey | tier up with surplus of ex-
tracing combs as fast as the colony
needs the room to store surplus. Usual
ly the combs above the excluder will
be filled with honey by the time the
bees are Matched, and no other system
is as sure to give one set of combs full
of honey for the extractor in the very
poorest season. The great economy of
this system is that all the colonies pro-
duce nearly alike. If want fancy
comb-honey / tier the section cases on
the super containing the brood, and
push the bees to start all the combs
they can; at the close of the season 1
extract the honey from the combs in
the super, and feed it back to properly
prepared colonies to have the partly
| filed sections completed. This system
also works perfectly If applied imme-
diately after swarm issues. The only
difference in the manipulation In this
case is that no brood or eggs is left in
the breed nest where the-swarInz is
hived back.
