The introduction of the humble bee

secure the fertilization of the red clover
is matter of record. In a recent
paper in the New Zealand journal of
Science" Mr. George NJ. Thompson.
+. l.. S.. presents an interesting arti-
Gle on the introduced oOmoi in New
Zealand. giving also u list of the plants
and flowers which are visited by these
bees. He makes the interesting state
ment that with few exceptions ne
has never heard of these oees visiting
the flowers of indigenous plants. but
states that they have become so extra
ordinarily abundant that the question
mas even arisen in mis- mind as to
whether they would not become as
serious pest to the apiarist as the
rabbit has proved to the farmer ami
cultivator. on account of their absorb
ing so much OF tine nectar OF the fOw-
ers. He also points out the remark
able fact in connection with the life of
the bundle bee in New leland. that
in many parts OF the colony it does
not seem to hibernate at all. but is to
be seen daily on flowers all the year

Turnips and Grain for Sheep.

The beet of this experiment was
to present an object lesson on the
profits of the beral feeding of lambs
that are intended for the market
Two lots of sheep and lambs were
fed in q radically different manner.

method that is ed for 70 cling the
growth OF early lambs On the other
hand. lot was fed in q manner SINH
lar to that which is adopted by many
farmers who consider the sheep TO be
an animal that can be successfully
fed on the refuse OF a barn without
the addition Of very much grain.
The sheep of lot l received what
good hay they would consume and a
pound OF grain each. per day. Be-
sides this the pen was SO arranged
that the lambs had access at all times
to q supply OF mixed grain. The
sheep of lot 2 were fed one half
pound grain per head daily. with
what good hay they would eat The
lambs of this lot were allowed no
grain excepting what they ate from
the mothers ration.
The following is a summary of the
results of the experiment.:

pen Of Prof. J. b. Smith. 1t 10 right
In line with an editorial on the same
subject published in the Farmers Re-
view few weeks ago: 1T is a safe
rule whenever . crop is gathered. to
clear of the remnants and destroy
them rs completely as possible. This
Is contrary to the general practice.
which is TO get the crop and let the
remnants take care of themselves un-
til the iand is prepared Tor something

left in the fields after the crop is gath

leave an old wood pile in or near an.

Many insects breed preferably in dead

too rotten. they have a sharp instinct
which enables them to discover weak

The Value Of Good Barns.

whether it pays to have good barn.

siderable waste Of crops and feed from

out a barn it is impossible to save the
manure 10 the best advantage. al
though some who have the barn. We
are sorry to say neglect this import
ant matter. But perhaps the greatest
profit from the barn comes from the
housing of stock; thus saving from ex-
pOsure in inclement weather and
enabling us to keep it constantly
growing and improving. The more
we advance in agriculture. the better
barns we shall build. and after We
have them we shall gradually con-
form to the practice of keeping our
stock housed more clio :ely. Then We

Growing y Variety Of Crops.


The extreme cost of labor Is tho
draw back that makes farming so little
profitable. 1t cannot be remedied by
lowering OF wages except in one way.
This is to give employment through
the whole year. ard with the advan-
tagc OF a house and garden for the
hired man hire him at rates which
will pay him Ietter than current day
or month wages through the busiest
season only. Bus how shall the
farmer who has done this compensate
himself for the loss of time in tho
dull season? There should be no
lost time. Grow such variety Of
crops that the yearly hired help will
find some paying work every day
during the growing season. Then
for fall and winter have crop grown
on the farm that will employ come
labor in its manufacture. This used
to be done by making leather from
hides. boots and shoes from leather
and cloth ing from wool or fax grown
on the farm. Most of this may not
be practicable now. But we know q
farmer who for many years has grown
from one to five acres in broom corn.
and in winter has employed fully rs
much labor as he did in the summer
and rs profitably in making the
product into brooms. This is a kind
of b siness tact that can hardly fail
OF being successful. Gull
