Jennie Atchley of Texas has this to
say in The American Bee Journal on a
subject of interest to queen breeders:
Being queen breeder and interested
in a sure and safe means to mate my
queens, / have this year been expert
menting as t. what could do to deter
mine whether or not the drones were
touched by the mating as well as the
workers, etc. l had some fine Italian
queens mated with black drones. Imean
queens that were yellow all over. Then
I had sister to such queen mated with
drone yellow all over. l also clipped
the wing of third virgin sister and
mated thorough black queen with an
Italian drone. Now for results:
The yellow all over queen mated to a
black drone shows q part of her drones
black or nearly so, some one and some
two banded and some yellow all over.
The black queen mated to an Italian
drone shows nearly all black drones, but
occasionally one with a slight yellow
band. The drones from the clipped vir-
gin are all solid yellow; also those from
the yellow queen mated to the yellow
drone produce all yellow drones. Now
/ am fast coming to conclusion that
drones also are touched by the mating.

How true it certainly is that if we have
but the patience to wait and struggle for

will surely be ours. 1t is not enough,
however, to sit quietly down and remain
inert, but if we would accomplish great
res tits we must possess untiring per

recipes we give several formulas that
have been made public by The Country
Gentleman. As there is more or less
variation in the proportion of the ingre-

LIGHTNING CALCULATION.


How the Cube Root of Amy Number May Be
Given Instantly.
One-third memory, one-third practice
and one-third trick-that is the secret Of
most of the rapid calculators who figure
before the public. There are very few
calculations of which there is not q short
way to the solution, but perhaps none OF
them is so easy and at the same time so
surprising to the ordinary mind as the
instantaneous extraction of the cube root.
This is a feat which has gained great
applause for its performers from the
days of Hutchins, 1.-THE lightning calcu-
lator," till now. The extreme rapidity
with which it is worked and the difficult
ty of the solution by the ordinary meth
DDS render it one of the most taking Of
feats.
Before explaining the method of per-
forming this extraction Of the cube root
it may be well for the benefit of those
readers who have forgotten some of their
early school knowledge to explain what
a cube root is. Multiply number BY
itself and the product by the original
number, and the result is cube. Thus:
9x9-s1 (the square Of 81; 81 - 7ss
(the cube of 81. Then is the cube root
of 729.
Now for the method. First you OBJ
tain from one of the audience an exact
cube of not more than six places Of fig
ures, though with moderate practice the
latter condition need not be insisted on
Say the cube given is 140, sos. of which
the root is SO. You know the cubes Of
the units by heart, thus:

COMB HONEY PRODUCTION.
Statements Made at the North Americas
Reekeeper,s Convention.


Statements Made at the North American
Beekeepsr's Convention.
In paper having for its subject the
production of comb honey, r. F. Hotter
man said before the convention of North
American Beekeepers at Chicago many
things of general interest. He advised
as regards locality q place where the
honey flow is heavy rather than pro-
longed. In the face of great diversity of
opinion, he hazarded the belief that any
material variation from the depth of the
Langstroth is q mistake. A super with
section holders, consisting of two sides
and bottom bar with separators, fol-
lower and wedge, was his preference.
Sections should be At inches square.
The thickness is q disputed question.
In Canada nearly all the beekeepers
use sections IL inches thick. In the
United States the thicker sections are
used-seven to the foot-or II inches.
He believed the tendency was toward
thinner sections. Regarding bees, their
comb building characteristics and honey
gathering qualities must be looked after,
instead of their individual beauty. He
took issue with the statement that colo
MES could be too strong early in the sea-
son. If colony became crowded too
early to put on sections, he would put
on an extracting super until the time ar
rived for putting on sections. The sec
tions should be filed with full sheets of
light foundation.
Mr.. Holterman said that no one who
wishes to raise comb honey to perfection
will ever care to prevent swarming en-
tirely. Swarms should be hived on the
old stands upon very narrow strips
(starters) of foundation or else upon
full sheets of foundation. Which shall
be used depends upon the locality. If it
is where there is danger of pollen being
carried into the sections, then full sheets
of foundation should be used. When
starters are used, one day should be al
lowed to elapse before the sections are
put in place When swarms are hived
on starters, they are likely to build some
drone comb, especially if the queen is
old.
Mr.. Holterman did not consider it
practicable torequeen the colonies before
the swarming season. He would allow
the bees to build such combs as they
might, taking great care to rear all
queens from the best stock, and then in
the fall put the bees upon good combs,
if they had failed to build good ones, and
feed them sugar for winter stores. The
combs removed can be sorted over and
those having drone comb patched up
with pieces of worker comb, or else they
may be melted into wax. He gave no
upward ventilation. He advised shade
upon the top and even the sides of the
hives. The use of the bee escapes was
advised Mr. Holterman worked for
comb honey until the season was near
its end, then turned his attention to the
production of extracted honey.

FARM coNvgNIENcEs.

Which Contribute Largely to the Comfort
and Welfare of the Owner.
There 10 surprising difference to be
observed on many farms as regards the
attention given to what are commonly
considered matters of secondary impor-
lance, but which nevertheless largely
contribute to the comfort of the owner
and the welfare of his animals Many
barns and stables are to be found on
good farms where the rain drips from
the caves in such way as to make go
ing in and ont of them exceedingly dis
agreeable. Quite often, too, this drip
may be found falling on an uncovered
manure pile, teaching out its fertility
and carrying it off in streams as it runs
out of the yard. Again, little or no at
tention is paid to walks by which the
building can be reached without travel
ing in the mud.
Not many farmers now in the region
of inclement winters leave their animals
quite unprotected by shelter, but in
stances are not infrequent where cattle
are so cramped up by stanchions and
narrow stalls that they might well be
excused if they preferred liberty out Of
doors in the cold to such confinement
On another farm, cave troughs and con-
ductors will be found leading the rain
water into cisterns conveniently located,
with pumps and water troughs for the
stock, m arrangement that greatly les.
sens the labor Of taking care of them, and
saves the water for necessary uses, in
stead of its keeping everything in disa-
greeable condition around the buildings.
Where manure is to remain in the barn
yard until spring, it costs very little to
build shed over the pile that will pro-
tect it sufficiently to prevent it's fertility
from teaching out. By timely attention
to the many things that present them
selves, such as proper housing of tools
and agricultural implements as well as
of the animals and poultry, great deal
will be done that will pay well for the
labor and expense.
A very useful article about farm build
ings, though not very commonly found,
is force pump supplied with hose suf-
fcient to throw water on the top of a
ACoS SdA 4OW DC OOudAACtA
quite cheaply. The hose can often be
used to great advantage for other pur-
poses, and in the case of fires may prove
of inestimable value in saving building
where other means at hand would fail.
It should always be kept in the same
place, hanging up, in readiness for i'm
mediate use, and with one force pump
at the house and one at the barn it can
be quickly attached to either as the case
may require. With water convenient
and plenty and hose in working order
at hand, muddy wagons and carriages
can be quickly cleaned and be kept in
readiness for going out again. Besides
this, farmer who can show such an ar
rangement for the protection of his build
ings against fire can unquestionably get
a lower rate Of insurance than he can
where no precautions are taken.
