legs are very nimbls and take the best care

Henry Irving Is more than capital; 1t Is
very near to the marvellous. The many
other limitations are good, too, and further,
his lightning change acts in the country

fits the frame. The sale of seats is now

PARALYSIS IN BEES.

Cause of the Disease and How to Stamp
1t Out.
In my experience and study of bee
paralysis, says Il writer In Gleanings, l
find that the first symptoms of the dis
ease are first no ticeable, SO far as we
have been able to judge, by the guard
bees at the entrance attacking the
diseased sisters with hustling move
ment as they go and come; and the
diseased bee, in this stage, seems to en-
joy this kind of treatm ent; and this in
dicotes, to my mind, that the bee is
fevcrish-a condition that produces an
itching sensation, also causing the hair
to loosen, and to be easily extracted by
the bees In the hustling movement,
as above stated. l also find that,
when bees reach the second stage, or
hairless condition, the guard bees are
more determined to drag them from
the hive than at any other time, Fur
Their observations teach us that as
soon as the bee begins to bloat she i'm
mediately leaves the hive and soon ex-
pires As soon as the bees begin to fly
freely, make strong brine and thor
oughly wet the bottom boards of these
hives once week, so that. when they
dry, they will look frosty; also freely
spray the combs and brood with a solu-
ton OF salt water that you can taste
quite little salty mot strong) once q

t4lvlNc a SWARM.



No Sounds
When n swarm issues there is no need
of raising Fourth Of July racket over
them, says the Iowa Homestead. The
heather Chinee fires crackers. beats
gongs and yells and thinks he scares
away the evil spirits He is perfectly
positive OF it, and you could no more
deeply insult him than to question his
doing SO. The modern American bee
keeper rings bells, beats tin pans and
flashes mirrors to make the bees clus-
ter He is just as confident that his
means accomplish his end us the Chinee
is, and can cite to you instance
after instance where he has sue
cceded. There is just as much sense
in the performance Of the Chinee as
in that of the bee-keeper. He
forgets that the bees, like the
Chinee god, have no ears and cannot
hear his sounds. Bees nre susceptible
to vibrations. but can hear no sounds,
though they can feel vibrations.
Occasionally there is swarm that
win abscond without alighting. In a
case like this to throw dirt among
them, or use force pump to throw wa
ter among them, will settle them. If
they can be induced to cluster at all.
When they are clustered it is best to
sprinkle them quite literally with wa
ter to keep them from taking wings
again. II they cluster within reach,
when the hive is prepared for them,
shal,e In n basket and dump In front
of the hive which they are to occupy.
To have piece of muslin or sheet in
front of the hive to dump them on
will materially aid matters by keeping
them out of the grass. If for any
reason they must be hived where the
colony is not desired to Semain, when
they are all In remove the hive to the
stand which they are desired to occu-
by. II they do not seem to want to stay
in the hive designed for them, then give
them a comb of bi God; they will scarce
ly ever desert it sylta AH

The Selection of Oats.

Careful feeders Of horses know that
In feeding oats, especially the whole
grain, much depends upon the nature
of the hull or chaff. 1t is not always
the heaviest grain which gives the best
results. That which is much above the
standard weight has most often a
rough, gritty chaff which so acts on the
stomach as to expel much OF the grain
in an undigested state. The hull, how.
ever soft its texture, is always laxative,
and @ moderate degree OF laxativeness
is beneficial, especially to breeding ami
mails, but there is no gain in passing
through the heaviest grain in nearly
whole state. Better use light grain,
which will be more thoroughly di.
gested- 1t is commonly supposed that
the oat which sells for the highest price
is the best feed, but 1t is not ALWAYS
the case,

The Cow BEFORE CalvlDr.

The feeding of COW soon to calve is
an important matter as regards the
welfare Of the animal, and by neglect
or mistake many cows are injured when
In this condition. 1t is safe TO avoid all
grain feeding for at least one month
before the calf is expected. but any
kind OF vegetables or roots may be
given with safety and advantage. The
principle on which such cows are to be
fed Is that the bowels should be kept in
free condition, ana all food that may
unduly stimulate the system is to be
avoided. After the calf appears, strong.
a. food is given gradually during two
or three weeks following. The COW
may be MIXED few hours after the
calf Is born. If it Is TO be kept from
sucking. which Is generally advisable.
but the milking must depend wholly on
the condition of the COW. Some conf.
aus mixers may need milking before
