DR.. FL. A. Dykes, secretary of the
State Board of Health, explains that part
of his report relating to registered ply
sicians by saying the only correct regis
tration is the first registration made, and
that the age of the physician given is his
age at the time he was registered,
whether he was registered in 1885 or
1894
Dr. Dykes says his report is made up
entirely of the reports made to him by
the county health officers and that the
only thing original in his or any other
report of the state board of health is the
preface DIR. Dykes insists that his pre-

Among the Bees.


The following query was recently
asked and answered in The American
Bee Journal: (Which is the best way
to prevent increase-to return the swarm
to the parent hive or to unite it with a
weak coleny?'
Four beekeepers answered, "That de-
ponds upon circumstances"
turn, if managed we'll. will succeed; and
to give to weak colony, after removing
the queen, succeeds with me in nine
cases out of ten
Mr.. Mahin answered, "Return the
swarm, remove the queen and destroy
all the queen cells but one"
C. II. Dibbern said, Remove the queen
from the weak colony and shake the bees
out on sheet in front of the hive. then
dump the swarm on the sheet and let
them all run in together"
q. W. Demaree answered, "Take away
the brood and put empty combs or
frames with foundation or starters only
in their stead and hive the swarm back
where it came from. The brood may
be given to weak colonies if you have
them, but if not put queen excluder
on the brood nest over the swarm and
put the brood in super or hive body
and tier up on the queen excluder. This
forces the queen to commence anew be-
low the zinc excluder, and if the queen

0na1ity of Pears.


It should not be forgotten that whether
any one kind of pear is good or not de-
ponds as much on the treatment it re-
ceives from the grower as from it's own
efforts to be good, says Meehan's Month
ly. If kind is inclined to bear large
crops. the quality will be poor unless
some of the great number be thinned
out. Again, if tree which usually bears
fruit of good quality gets little sick.
bringing on premature ripening, the
fruit will be poor Still again, those
pears which ripen very soon after gath
ering are much improved by being taken
from the tree before quite mature, while
late ripening kinds like to stay on as
long as possible. Some ripen better in a
dark room and others in full light. In
nothing is skill more at home than in the
proper ripening of pears.

SUCCESS IN FEEDING WHEAT.

Slowly at first and then rapidly, it
would appear, the stockraisers of the
country are realizing that they can feed
wheat to stock just as they have been
feeding corn for years. 1t was not the
custom to feed wheat. NoOne objected
on the ground that it would injure the
creatures or that it was not good for
them, but there was a line drawn that
wheat was to be consumed by the
human family. 1t was not visible
line, but tacitly understood. But wheat
grew so abundant that man had more
than he needed, while some of the other
cereals did not harvest as abundantly
as usual The problem was easily
solved. Men did not go to the authori-
ties to ask leave to feed their wheat to
their stock Their stock waxed hungry
and they fed the wheat out in the same
old Y they had fed the other grains.
Then the spectators in wheat began
to wonder where the surplus was going
to, since it seemed to be diminishing.
Investigation by the Chicago Trade
Bulletin revealed the fact that there is
now very general use of wheat as feed
for livestock. Replies from all states,
from New York and Pennsylvania west
to Colorado, and from southern states,
have been received to the inquiries of
the Trade Bulletin, some of which say
that the consumption of wheat for AMI
NAL food will amouat to from 5 to 20
per cent, and few anticipate the use
of as much as so per cent in displace-
ment of the other grains. If these esti-
mates have not been exaggerated the
effect must ultimately be felt in a
measure of relief to the abnormal price
depression in the wheat markets. The
relatively greater value of wheat when
| fed to stock is indicated by the report of
western llog-feeder to the president of
! the commercial exchange. The result
of his experiments in wheat feeding in
the last few weeks has been a gain in
weight of hogs equivalent to 81 cents
per bushel for wheat, which Is not
worth 81 cents in the yhicigo market,
after the payment of freight aud other
expenses of shipment from the farm.

SUBSOIL FLOWING.
A Plan Proposed by the Secretary OF the
Kansas State Board of Agriculture.

Plan Proposed by the Secretary OF the
Kansas State Board of Agriculture.
Subsoil blowing. which by MANY is
considered as greatly improving the
Chances for a crop. has nevertheless as
yet not come into anything like general
use in farm practice. This arises, no
doubt, from the fact that the benefits to
be derived from it are not common to all
soils. and also largely to the double cost
OF preparation which subsoiling implies.
The theory is that it is beneficial ia both
dry and wet seasons-in the former by
creating a sort of reservoir for water in
the loosened soil below the ordinary fur.
row against time of need, when the
plants may be supplied with moisture
through capillary attraction that would
otherwise have drained off from the sur
face: IN wet season, through break
ing up of the subsoil, which allows an
excess from rainfalls to pass downward,
where it would otherwise remain too
long on or near the surface to the injury
of plants.
Whatever view may be taken of these
proportions, it may safely be said that
its advantages, or the opposite. cannot
in all cases be predicted without putting
it to the test of actual experiment on the
farm itself. In discussing this subject
in a monthly report of the Kansas state
board of agriculture. Mr.. NJ Mohier, the
secretary, recommends the following
easy method of determining whether
subsoiling does or does not possess, in
whole or in part, the merits often claimed
for it.
The plan proposed is to pillow and SUBJ
soil two or three strips. about two rods
in width, from sixteen to twenty inches
deep, across the field selected for the ex-
pertinent and let the balance of the field
be plowed the usual depth and not sub
soiled, and let the surface preparation of
both be the same before the planting
Then plant the field across the SUBSIDIZED
strips SO that there can be no difference

the same care and treatment to the en-
tire field while the crop is growing
Keep record and note every ten days
the varying conditions of the weather
and the differences, if any. in growth of
the plants, and after harvesting the diff
ference in the yield and quality of grain
In this manner the question of its use
fulness for such a soil and under such
conditions may be quite satisfactorily
determined.
While the suggestions Of Mr. Mohler
are intended primarily for the considera-
ton of farmers in his own state, the
method proposed is equally applicable
elsewhere. 1t may thus be used by any
farmer in any locality as comparatively
easy and inexpensive way Of learning
whether on his own fields subsoiling will
produce sufficient increase in his crops
to compensate for the additional expense
