1t is largely the bees produced
in May that will gather the clover
harvest in June. 1t will pay to
equalize colonies as fully as posi-
BILE in advance, and place all on
the same footing.
1t is a good plan now, when there
are no surplus supers in the hives,
to tilt the hives forward to the
south at an angle of 80 to As de-
grees. When the supers are put on
the hive should stand nearly level.
Many consider bees as good
weather indicators. If the day is
to be lowering or wet, the bees will
be sluggish and inactive in the
morning, while if the day is bright
and fine they will be fulf of life
and activity.
Queen bees can be sent so safely
and cheaply through the mails that
there seems no excuse for continu-
ing to raise the oldfashioned bees
when the better breeds are not only
easier to han die, but pay a better
profit.
If you desire a moderate increase,
allow each colony to swarm once.
This is preferable to dividing, If
the bees are allowed to swarm ex.
cessively little honey will be made.
The best way to prevent this is by
keeping the combs cleared of queen
cells.
To make good syrup for feeding
bees, take Is pounds of boiling
water and sift in 80 pounds of gran
ulated sugar, stirring all the time.
When all the sugar is stirred in
take from the fire and add 5 pounds
of extracted honey and stir thor
oughly. The honey will keep the
syrup from granulating.
A tested queen is one that IS kept
until the young bees show their
markings. If Italians they should
show three yellow bands A war
rented queen is one whose progeny
the dealer guarantees to be true to
name. Dollar queens are those
whose only guarantee is that they
have been raised from an imported
mother and are laying.

Foes Fruit Growing PayY

Mr.. Booksin, of Santa Clara
county, Cal, is reported by the
Willows Journal to have made the
following report of his fruit income
during the past season;
LET me give you few figures,
and these figures are based on the
lowest prices ever received for fruit
in Cal, viz: Peaches at 1c per h.,
prunes at lesss than 5cts per h.,
and other fruits proportionately
low. This year received check
for $4,000 for fruit produced on
eighty acres of land divided up as
follows: 800 for the fruit from
20 acres of prunes, $4,000 for the
crop from six acres of cherries and
the balance of the $4,000 for the
rest of the eighty acres of assorted
fruit. | was offered 81 200 an acre
for my eighty acres, but did not
want to sell that cheap"

The Sex or Eggs.

Mrs. T. II. Gosnell of Ohio, in
the Cincinnati Semi Weekly Gazette,
gives the following information how
to tell pullcts from cockerels by the
eggs shape: For pullets select the
round eggs always. and for cocker
els take the sharp and pointed ones,
and, by closely observing and fol-
lowing out this plan the farmer,
fancier or breeder can make his cal
culations as to what proportion of
the brood will be pullets. In set
ting my hens always sort the eggs,
and have the best of lnck with pull
lets.

The hives should have tight roofs.
A good thick coat "f paint will add
in making them water tight.
Bees often will not mind being
swept off with green grass, but
would be furious if hair or feath-
er were used
See that all the material for box
es. hives and crates is on hand. 1t
will be better to have too much
than too little.
1t will be more profitable to have
all the colonies do well than to
have a few produce extra yields
and many that will produce next
to nothing.
AS soon as the weather becomes
settled bees that have been winter
ed IN cellars or in winter shelter,
should be returned to their Sum-
mer stands.
If ants are troublesome about
the hives one of the best remedies
is to sprinkle little kerosene oil
where they run. Be careful not to
use too much.
Use up the combs from the hives
in which the bees died out during
the Winter. 1t will pay to sort
them over and use only such as are
straight worker combs.
A little feeding to colonies now
that are short of stores, or little
help by giving weak colonies a
frame or two of bees and brood
from strong ones will pay well for
the trouble.
When breeding is going on rap
idly, the stores being consumed at
a rapid rate, if honey is not coming
in, the queen will take alarm and
laying of eggs be greatly dimin-
ished.
The worker bee alone causes the
fertilization of bloom. The queen
is the mother bee, the drone the
male and the workers are neuters
that gather the honey from the
flowers.

FARM Notes.


Many farmers are perplexed by
the question: What can we grow
that Will secure us a living profit
By little reflection it will be seen
that for some years past cloverseed
has brought high price. 1t is so
variable, however, that no seed firm
will fix a price, but will make a
rate on the application of the buy
er. Glover is as staple as cotton
cloth, and one need not at this time
fear an over production, for there is
always market.
Timothy seed, as well as red top,
is also, and always has been in
good demand. Those grass seeds
which require only ID pounds to
the bushel in order to be Al, need
some extra care and proper tools, or
rather machinery, to fit them for
the market.
Sweet Potatoes-It is fact that
can easily be proved that New Jer-
sey, for instance, obtains extra
good prices for her yellow Nanse-
mond sweet potatoes, all along the
line. running from Buffalo to Cleve-
land into Michigan and Norther n
Illinois, clear up to Minneapolis,
St. Paul and west of there. They
are sold at so much per pound and
always find buyers.
Tomatoes-A young lady in St.
Louis had dollhouse built for the
purpose of raising tomatoes ready
for market during the Winter She
has by her industry and ingenuity
received cash enough from tomatoes
sold (the second crop to pay for
her building. They sell readily at
a good figure. New ones are ma
turing every day, and the venture
is complete success.
Corn-There is no farm crop less
difficult or one that requires less
outlay either in planting or harv-
esting or storing than corn. 1t fits
in every way on the farm. The
family and all kinds of live stock
feed and thrive upon it. There is
a whole niontE in which it may be
planted; there are sixty ways in
which it may be cultivated; it will
stand six weeks after ripe, in which
it may be housed, and in a good
rat-proof crib it will keep in good
condition indefinitely.
Buckwheat-It is almost impos-
sible to procure pure buckwheat
flour. From 33 to so per cent. of
tn, so-called buckwheat -four is
middlings. or shipstuff, as it is
called AS the Englishman said of
port wine: you may straddle the
barrel at Oporto and ride it into
England, and when you get there
it will be adulterated." So you
may ride the sack of -four from
Vermont to Wisconsin and it will
be found mixed at the end of the
trip.

The British Government in India
has gone into the dairy business, to
the extent of establishing dairy
farms in places where troops are
stationed, for their exclusive ben
eft. Frequent outbreaks of enteric
fever having been traced to polluted
milk supply, the dairy farms were
established with manifest gain in
the health of the troops. The
farms have generally proved self
sustaining, and that at Allahbad

A novel system of branding
horses, cattle and sheep is reported
from Australia. The brand is kept
the required heat by electricity from
storage batteries. From these a
flexible rubber tube carries the cleo
tric energy to the brand, which is
heated from within, 1t is claimed
that this brand is perfectly safe,
that it marks without blotch, and
is kept at a uniform temperature.

The Jacobs Investigation.

Circuit Court Commissioner Bumps has
forwarded to Gov. Rich, his report and
opinion on the testimony on the investiga-
ton of Sheriff Jacobs.
1t was charged in the complaint made
against him that Sheriff Jacobs was incom-
petent to perform the duties of the office.
The second charge alleged official miscon-
duct, and the third charge alleges wilful
neglect of his duties as sheriff. Commits
siener Bumps opinion follows:
'As to the first charge and the specifca-
tions hereunder the evidence dscloses that
Sheriff Jacobs conducted his prisoner, VIM.
Sullivan, from Detroit to Corunna and
lodged him i'm the county Jail with as much
care and skill as the eXigency of the case
demanded; that he did all that any careful,
prudent man of his experience would have
done under similar circumstances; that the
crowd of people in COrunna on the evening
of May 80, 1898, was a good-natured crowd,
largely composed of citizens of Shawassee
county, known to be law-abiding, and who
were merely there out of curiosity to see
Sullivan; that they conducted themselves
I'm an orderly and peaceful manner, and
nothing was said or done that indicated to
Sheriff Jacobs or anybody else that an as
sault would be made upon the jail and ply
steal violence done William Sullivan.
1.-THE evidence further discIoses that the
seven or eight deputies whom Jacobs had
assembled within and about the Jail on the
night of May Esd were each armed with a
loaded revolver, and that no instructions
were given by Sheriff Jacobs to his deputies
to not use them. 1t further appears from
the evidence that Sheriff Jacobs acted IN
good faith in his resistance to the assault of
the mob and under the circumstances as they
appeared to him and others competent to
judge acted with ordinary judgment and
caution in guarding the Jail as be did.
1T further appears from the evidence that
the mob which assaulted the Jail and took
out the body of Sullivan and hung it on a
tree that night was an organized party of
masked men, none of whom was known to
or recognized by the sheriff or any of his
deputies; that as soon as the masked men
had hung the body of Sullivan to the tree
hey at once dispersed, and Sheriff Jacobs
has been unable to apprehend any of them,
although he has since made reasonable
search and inquiry; that Sheriff Jacobs re-
covered the body of Sullivan as soon as he
lad revived sufficiently from his fight with
he mob.

The republicans of Shiawassee county
have every reason to feel proud of their can
didate for State Senator. For the first time
since this senatorial district was organized
there seems to be every probability that a
Shiawassee republican will grace seat in
the senate. The Office is in many ways a
very important one, requiring man of keen
perception, good judgment and ability to
properly fill it. Such man is the republi-
can nominee, Hon. William M. Fitzpatrick,
of Owosso. Mr.. Fitzpatrick was born at

cember 25, 1910. He spent his early years
