Here and There.

There is talk about establishing con-
densed milk factory at Monmouth, Me.
Western New York has skunk farm
where black skunks are bred and raised

Texas exchanges call attention to the
Lone Star cotton picker, which has been
ut work in some of the cotton fields.
The money employed in the diaries of
New York state, according to a recent
estimate, is about $3.50, 000, 900; the
value of the cows is about $54 Zoo, 900.

Bookkeeping in a Small way

Why should not every farmer have a
few colonies to gather the honey and
fertiliZe the bloom of his orchards? There
is nothing in the way of every intel
Hgent man or woman living in the
country doing this. The necessary in
struction for beginners is cheap and
available. Like a modern hardware
store, supply dealers have every fixture
of hives and their appliances ready for
service that novice may begin at once.
Transferring, Introducing of queens, di-
viding of colonies, extracting of honey,
handling and marketing the same, can
all be learne in a short time. In fact,
the art is fast becoming a science. The
introducing of queens, that was for a
long time considered hazardous expert
ment, is now performed with but little
risk. Cages are now so constructed that
all that is necessary to do with the
queen and her convoy when they are re-
celved in such cage, is just to take out
the cork stopping the entrance and put
ting the cage between the combs, or
simply laying it on top. OF course the
old queen has to be previously removed.
Sugar paste having been put in the cage,
stopping the hole from which the cork
has been removed, it requires some time
before the queen imprisoned is liberated,
and during this time the bees and she
become acquainted, and having liber-
ated her themselves without any excite
ment, she is generally well received.
Spring is the best season in which to
begin, says the Philadelphia Farm Jour
nal. Get one or two colonies to start
with. If you can get them in movable
comb hives so much the better. If these
are not available take good colonies in
box hives, and have them transferred in
May into whatever kind of hive you may
select. Remember there are no patents
on hives that amount to anything now.
Do not believe any vendors of patent
hives. They are frauds. Langstroth,
the American chaff hives, single and
double stories. the Simplicity and many
others, are all reliable and free from
patents.

Orchard Grass with Glover.

At one of the Ohio farmers Institutes
a farmer sa d: Il recommend that more
attention be given to the production of
orchard grass. When | SOW clover al
ways sow orchard grass with it, 1t paws
well and clover will do for pasture for
horses, cattle and swine The orchard
grass is very valuable adjunct in a
clover field. If You intend cutting the
clover for hay, the orchard grass is still
strong, and will stand great deal of
clover. 1t helps the clover, and can
make better quality of hay.
Il don't think, as a rule, that farmers
generally SOW large variety of grasses
We can have a great number and va
riety of grasses growing, have more
pasture, keep the ground all occupied
and give variety of feed. / have timo-
thy land and blue grass land. The proper
time to sow orchard grass is when the
weather gets warm in the spring. can
get better stand along in April to the
middle of May. If sown alone use two
bushels of seed to the acre. When | SOW
clover l use about half bushel.'
