otherwise be wasted.
Hives should have on an average
30 pounds of good honey or sugar
syrup in store to begin Winter.
Bees serve as active agents in the
fertilization of plants and are not
destructive to the smallest degree.
A gargle made of sage tea and
sweetened with honey is one of the
best remedies for Group and noarse-
ness.
1t is hardly a safe plan to de-
pend upon feeding the bees during
the Winter. 1t is often too cold to
do this.
Caughing may be quickly relieved
by mixing barley water with honey
and the juice of lemons, and drink
ing it warm.
Bees can be wintered in a cellar,
provided the cellar is not too damp,
and care is taken to have a moder-
ately cool, even temperature.
There are no lazy bees. Ii they
are idle it is because the flowers
are not secreting, or else there is
something wrong in the hive.
Unless care is taken to put the
bees away in good condition in the
Fall it will be useless to expect to
find them strong and vigorous in
the Spring.
An excellent remedy for lung
trouble can be made Of a strong
decoction of horehound sweetened
with honey, toking tablespoonful
five times day.
Bees are naturally cleanly in
their habits, so that if they are con-
fined too long at a time they be-
come diseased, especially if their
food is not wholesome.
One decided advantage in win
tering the bees in a good cellar is
that they can be kept on about half
the stores that would be needed if
left unprotected on the Summer
stands.
As the proper food and tempera-
ture can best be secured in a full
colony, the best queens can usually
be reared in strong colonies, or, at
least, kept in such colonies until
the cells are capped.
Protection may be given bees in
a common box hive by covering it
with boards or placing a box over
the hive, of course leaving an en-
trance for the bees, and filling the
space between with chaff.
The function of the queen bee is
simply to lay eggs and thus keep
the colony populous. This she
does with considerable energy. A
good queen when at her best will
lay 1000 or 5000 eggs in day.
When iced is supplied to them
in good season, the bees will ar
range themselves as cold weather
comes on so as to be close to their
supplies, and use them as they
may need without leaving the
warmth of the cluster.
An indirect function of all bees in
the hive is to supply animal heat
as the very life of the bees requires
that the temperature inside the
hive be maintained considerably
above freezing. In the chemical
process attendant upon nutrition,
much heat is generated which may
be considera bly, augmented at
the pleasure OF the bees by forced
respiration.

Now that the congressional fight is
over. somebody has circulated a report
in the southern end of the District
that the defeated candidate, Mr.. f. S.
Gambler, Jr.. is entertaining thought
of entering the race on the independ-

this week deEouncing the false report.
That this rumor has .,en set afloat for
the purpose of injurlng Mr.. Gambler in
the future there can be no doubt, but
the author of it shows his lack Of politi-
cal sagacity when he undertakes to
place a Gambler in any other light
than that Of pure Democracy. So long

which is not founded on fact will
ever gain credence in this district or

AGRICULTURAL NOTES.

AFTER harvest comes a time of COM
parative leisure. This is good oppor-
tunity for cleaning up the farm. Some
brush and dirt and debris is almost sure
to collect, through the busy season, and
it is much better to get it out of the
way now than to let it lie until spring.
The man who devotes the least
amount of plant food to sustaining
crop of weeds is the one who has uni
formly the best crops for market.
Weeds of course have their uses, but
ordinarily they are not marketable
and so it is hardly worth while to pro-
duce them.
THERE is no use trying it-you cannot
crop land continuously without feeding
it. Perhaps you have been trying to do
so, and that is the reason you think
farming don't pay. 1t never will pay,
in that way. Begin now, if you never
have done so before, to study how to
feed the soil.
If you should spend money for fertil-
izers, and then leave them out in the
rain until they were pretty thoroughly
washed out,you would do a pretty fool
ish thing. But no more foolish than to
let the manure remain piled beneath
the caves of the barn, where it gets
washed by every rain. 1t would be a
good plan to remedy this.
IT is an old and true axiom that q
crop well put in is half made. Keep
this in mind when seeding wheat this
fall, for if there ever was time and
crop regarding which the farmer
needed all possible assurances of sue
cess, that time is now-and the crop is
wheat The only way that it will pay
to grow wheat now is to grow 1t ex-
ceedingly well.
LAND hunger, and the itch to have
every new implement invented, keeps
many farmer poor. With less land
expenses may be reduced when times
are hard, and fewer implements will be
needed in order to cultivate il per-
fectly. A smaller range of crops, each
one grown as a speciality, will give bet
ter returns than wider range and less
careful methods.
IT is good plan to look about in the
fall and see what can be done that will
lessen the work next spring. You can
trim out the dead brush from the small
fruits, for one thing; and set out more
of them if you have not enough already.
You can haul out every bit of the manure
and put it on the field where 1t 10
wanted. Prairie Farmer, 49,,

FIGURING THE PROFITS.
The Farm Should BE Charged with All
the Work Done.

The Farm Should BE Charged with All
the Work Done.
The profits of the farm are its sur
plus. Some, however, consider this to
be after the family living is had and
the current expenses of the farm are
paid. Others are willing to credit the
farm with the living, but charge it
with the labor necessary to properly
manage. A man is certainly entitled
to living if he works for it, and if the
farm is not charged with the value OF
the work of the farmer and his help it
is reasonable that it should not be
credited. Strictly speaking, the farm
should be charged with every days
work done upon it; and it should in
turn be credited with everything
grown or produced upon it, whether used
upon the farm or not. But with the
majority offarmers this would necessi-
tate an account of details that would
be rather tedious to keep. If the farm
living is to balance the farmers work,
this lessons the small accounts and
makes only the surplus the profits.
Upon this basis, considering the
amount of capital invested, the farm
would be paying very good per cent.
of interest if there was no surplus.
The living for the farmer and his fam
lily would show profit equal at least
to many other lines of business.
Whether or not in doing this the capt.
tai is infringed upon depends upon the
management given. With good care
good crops may be grown on the farm
every year, and the fertility of the soil,
as well as the farm, be generally inn
proved. Another, with fully as good
opportunity, will gradually sell his
farm. In the latter case he is losing
money, while in the former profit is
being realized, although there may be
no visible surplus after the living is
taken out. There is one advantage at
least on the farm, although the profits
may be small, the farmer is reasonably
sure of good average living. Prairie

A SAle SSSTafN'
FRUIT AND CORN HOUSE.
A Simple Structure Combining ConVen'
ienco and Beauty.

N blmplo btructufo COMBINING OOnVeh-
ienco and Beauty.
Last year l built combined corn
and fruit house, which has some adj
vantages of convenience and beauty. At
the stills it is Sx12 feet, and the sides
flare to width of 0 feet 6 inches at the
plates. The sides are So feet high,
and the roof Is half pitch. 1t is di-
vided across with partition, and the
south half has bin for corn on each
side of the door. The north half has u
floor o. feet from the lower floor, and
the loft is devoted to the storage OF
berry boxes and crates. The lower
part is used for temporary storing Of
berries, and other fruit. To many not
in the fruit business 1t may be news to
learn that rats and mice are quite
troublesome to fruitmen, and for over
night storage 1t is as important to have
rat-proof structures as it is for grain.
In winter mice make nests in pack
ages and gnaw holes in them. In
winter the fruit-room is used for the
storage of soft corn, and barrels Of
small grain and feed. There is door
In the front gable, as shown in the en-
craving, so that the entire end can be
filled, If necessary; cross boards being
placed inside the lower door, with
an opening at the bottom for taking
out corn. Filled to the peak, the crib
end holds $50 bushels, The loft over
the fruit-room is reached from the corn
crib, but there is no difficulty when the
crib is full, as the berry boxes are all
stored away long before the annual fill
ing. The building is sided on the ends
with barn boards dressed smooth, but
on the sides of the corn crib the boards
are ripped lengthways and placed an
inch apart, The building stands upon
twelve nine-inch sewer pipes, two feet
two inches high, which rest upon thin
fiat stones with frost-proof cobblestone
foundation. The sockets of the pipe
are just below the surface, making the
