come acquainted with the queen; cover
the cage with the enameled cloth, or
quilt, put OF the cover, and do not mo-

the cage, face down, between the
frames. Before introducing, be sure
your colony is q~ueenless.

/, As long ago as 1878 Carl schurz, secre-
.:ary: Of tbs interior during the, Hayes
administration, brought on himself great
,diums by his attempts to prevent de:
,;ttruction of timber on the public lands.
It was represented that Schurz was try
..ngjto force his despotic German notions
down the. throat of a great free people,
one of the, first Of whose rights was the
liberty, to cut, hack, burn, :uproot and
cart of every tree on: Uncle Sans do
.minions. Yet the Schurzj idea grew in
popularity until nearly every American
outside Of those actually engaged in rtr-
dining timber from the public lands has
come to SEQ the necessity for its practi7
al enforcement, 81: ,:stav. GMt.'.N%',r :.
The best, fruits of the forest preservar
zion agitation thus far are embodied in
IN act passed in March, 1891, for the
reservation efforests upon public lands
surrounding the headwaters of rivers
and streams in the western states and
territories. The law put it in power Of
the president to set apart by procla1lla-
ton certain portions of the public lands
which shall be kept as forest preserves,
not to be touched by Ak or saw. The only
exception is that actual settlers may by
special permit take from such forest
wood enough for fuel, fences and neces'
sary building operation. $50
Six of these forest preserves have now
been set apart, containing in all over
5000 square miles. The largest one is
on the southeast Of Yellowstone park
and it is Il times the size Of Rhode
Island. The next largest is the White
river reservation in Colorado, which
