Dudley Thought Aloud.

The habit of talking aloud was a
regularity of one Of the Earls Of
Dudley. and Of this habit an amusing
anecdote is told in the Sheffield Tele.
graph. Lord Dudley, being invited
to the house of a friend, had ordered
his carriage at an carly hour, having
some miles to travel before he could
obtain his accustomed rcpOse. To
his modification, after repeated in
quiries for Lord Dudley'S carriage, it
had not arrived.
One Of the guests, seeing how much
his L0rdShip was disconnected by the
event, very politely offered him seat
jim his.
The gentleman in question had to
pass his LordShip's house on his re-
turn home, and. though he was al
most a stranger TO Lord Dudley, his
rank and petition in the country
were. of course, well known to him.
Nevertheless they had not been seat
al in the carriage more than twenty
minutes when the peer. who had up
10 that moment maintained a most
perfect silence, observed in 4 low but
distinctly audible tone OF yOic':

"All this?" she asked in a discon-

"That is not too much for a little

Immense Honey Bee.

An immense honey lee has Teen
imprisoned in one Of the rooms Of the
University Of Pennsylvania. 1t is
fully four and onc-half feet from
sucker to sting and measures nearly
six feet from tip to tip OF the wings.
This is the largest bee ever seen IN
this part Of the country, at least, and
if IL could feed on clover bless ms
would make necessarily a great honey
producer, for its honey bag is big
enough to store away a whole comb.
But there is little danger that it will
escape from imprisonment TO the
fields. as it is made entirely Of papicr-
mache. says the Philadelphia Record.
This huge imitation has been p1r-
chased for the use Of the students ~

versitY 1t was manufactured in
Paris by an ingenious artiiicer. Emile
Deyrollc, who is famous for being the
UNIQUE constructor OF such biological
working models.
The big shiny bee is perfectly artic-
ulated, nodded and joined together
true to the busy lltuc "yeilow-
brccched philosopher" Of the fields,
after whom it was fashioned. Wings,

FARM AND GARDEN NOTES

Look out for queeuless colonies.
Young guinea fowls, if fat, make nice
table fowl.
Too much linsced meal will make the
hens too fat.
In order to have good, healthy,
vigorous chickens it is necessary to have
strong, vigorous breeding fowls.
One of the best crosses for com non
hens when it is desired to increase the
size is to use BrIhma Or Cocain rooster.
Sorghum seed can be used to good al
vantage in feeding the incubator chickens
rs soon as they are large enough to ca
it.
A faster growth can be secured with
chickens raised in the brOoder if they
are fed on cooked food rather than
raw.
When you have decided upon tue
garden crop for next season select your
seed, aud order early those you have to
buy.
When that fine squash is usel it my
