LONDON, June 12.-The news of the
dispatch of French fleet to Morocco
and of the preparations being male TO
enforce it, if necessary, is attracting
considerable attention here. The news
from Morocco is far being reassuring
and civil war is anticipated. Conflict
ing reports are still In circulation in re-
gard to the death of the late Sultan of
Morocco, and the general opinion seems
TO be that Sultan Abdul Aziz viii have
to defend his throne with the sword.
The Pail Mall Gazette Tuesday after
noon, referring to the Jealousy of the
powers III regard to Morocco, says that
the danger to European pence is due to
the fact that NJ. Dupuy is premier and
that he may take TINS opportunity of
striking u blow Mt English prestige. It
is added that a policy of aggression would
be popular IN France and Spain, which
countries would certainly be satisfied
with a dual control of Morocco, exclud-
ing England from having any voice in
the affairs of TINT country.
The Globe and the st. James Gazette
apprehend that u civil war will be the
only way of settling the succession to the
throne of Morocco.
The Globe in view of the dispatch of a
French feet to Morocco counsels the inn
mediate strengthening of the British
fleet off the coast of that country.

Notes for Beekeepers.

Pine is much the best wood for
bee hives
IF honey is heated too much it's
flavor will be destroyed.
Comb honey will often have blue
or mouldy color in cold weather.
Unite all weak colonies that will
be unable to build into strong stocks.
Bees secrete wax only when neces-
sary to make storage for honey or
brood.
To increase the stock of bees as
much as possible manage to have a
surplus of queens as early as posi-
BILE.
An oversupply. of drones is objec-
tionable, as they consume honey ana
do not lay up any stores. The num-
Der can be controlled by using worker
comb
As with many other kinds of work
it requires experience to manage a
large number of bees properly. a
beginner without experience should
start on q small scale.
If any Of the hives die out during
winter any honey they leave around
should be removed. as leaving # in
the hive may get the bees In the
other hives to robbing.
One advantage with, closed end
frames is that a hive may. be handled
as though it was a single piece and
one is not obliged to stop and space
the frames every time the hive is
handled ).

Cheapest Ration for Poultry.


A few weeks ago the Rural New
Yorker sent out the following list of
questions to parties who have been
feeding raw cut bone to fowls:
l. Do you still consider cut bone
an economical food for poultry?
2. How do you feed linked with
other food or alone-and how much
per 100 hens?
8. Have you ever tried steaning or
cooking it after cutting?
4. Have you ever fed it to other
animals besides poultry?
5. What do raw bones cost you.
and is it possible to develop trade
for the sale OF this product?
6. What do you consider the cheap
est ration you can get up for your
hens?
Several answers were received.
All responded in the affirmative to
the first question. All, except one
or two. make a practice OF feeding
either alone or mixed with other
food. The general opinion concern
ing the third question was that it
was unnecessary to cook or steam
and that practice had not been fol-
lowed. One man cooked it In sum-
mer time because it would not keep
raw.
In reply to the fourth question
only one answer in the affirmative.
He feeds it to his pigs and says they
do well on it. Another man thought
1t would be a goodfeed for dogs. The
price paid ranged all the way from
40 to IS cents per hundred pounds.
In reply to the sixth question one
man said that the cheapest food he
has found for hens for the produc-
tion of eggs is cut bone. Another's
plan was to feed whole wheat at
noon and cracked corn and oats at
night Barley two or three times a
week for change, he thought good.
A New York poultryman said that
the cheapest ration is oats in the
bundle cut fine with straw
cutter for winter feed. In
summer let them go to grass.
A Pennsylvania duck raiser said
that feed should consist of fifteen per
cent green bone, twenty per cent
bran, twenty per cent No. flour.
fifteen per cent crackers. thirty per
! cent corn meal. To this should be
added green food of some kind, such
as corn, rye, etc, or clover hay cut
fine and steamed for some time in
quantities equal to the ration first
! given. Another answer was: Fresh
! cut raw bone, oats, corn meal, wheat
bran and middlings. whole wheat,
corn in ear and buckwheat varied for
a change. A Massachusetts man
said he considered bran, middling
and corn meal the cheapest ration
for fowls or hens One part meal to
two parts bran and middlings. An
other feeds wheat boiled with beef
heads in the morning, and dry wheat
in the evening. Another preferred
to feed cooked cut bone, bran, meal
and potatoes in the morning, wet g
little green bone at noon and mixed
| grain at night.
