A Michigan man marketed 800
bushels of onions in one day recent
ly, using fourteen teams. His
sales in one week brought $500.
Bee-keeping causes but little him
drance to the work of the main
crops, and it is not sufficiently ap-
preciated. America produces about
100000 pounds of honey and
100000 of wax, all worth $6,OOO,-
600. Most of this is from clusters
of but few hives, and is scattered
over many States.
Experimental reports say that
chemical analysis Of unripe bean
stalks or vines indicates that it
will pay we'll to grow the largest
varieties of pole beans on hills Of
corn for fodder or ensilage, and
that fax shows, also, that it is a
very valuable hay plant if it is cut
and cured when half of its seeds
are ripe.
Farmers should never dispose of
pure bred stock to the butcher, as
there are other markets for them,
and should never sell such stock at
butchers prices. A pure-bred an
imal will always bring fair price.
AS rule thoroughbred stock is re-
markedly cheap, considering the
advantages gained by the use of
such.
The hotbeds may be used to ad-
vantage after the early plants are
removed. Owing to the large pro-
portion of manure used in hotbeds
they afford an excellent oppor-
tunity to some plants of growing
rapidly and producing largely. A
tomato plant left in the hotbed will
soon fill the entire space and will
yield enormously during the Sum-
mer. The tomato, like the orange,
will have blossoms, green fruit and
ripe fruit at the same time.

1t is getting to be more and more
evident that meat is a very desira-
BILE part Of the hens ration. A single
female rabbit, properly fed and
cared for, is capable of producing
young enough to produce 500
pounds Of meat year They will
thrive on vegetable food entirely.
In what other way can a poultry
man more cheaply change clover
and vegetables into meat than by
feeding them to rabbits? A few
poultrymen are already using a
rabbit pen to supply meat for their
fowls.

A crop of potatoes contains
about Is per cent Of water, and a
crop Of green clover about 80 per
cent. This varies, however, accord
ing to the stage Of growth In
selling ton of clover, therefore,
the farmer sell 1900 pounds OF
water, which has cost him nothing
at all. A crop of potatoes costs
but very nominal sum, SO far as
the actual plant food derived from
the soil is concerned, as there is
not quite 2 per cent Of protein, and
only / per cent of mineral matter
in potatoes. the fat and starch be-
ing derived from the atmosphere.
Thus the air and water are the two
largest sources from which plants
derive their subsistence, and many
crops may be grown that cost but
little if the refuse is added to the
manure heap, such as potato vines,
to be again returned to the soil, 1t
is true that there is cost for labor
in producing any crop, but the
farmer who can produce crop and
avoid loss Of fertility of soil will be
better prepared to increase his prof
it's the succeeding season.

Grapevines that are trained close
to the ground are more liable to
mildew or rot than those that are
trained up high enough to admit of
free circulation of air underneath.
The vines should then be pruned so
as to admit sunlight through them,
sprinkle enough common salt on
the ground for space of three feet
around the stem to whiten the
ground, or scattering good guam
tity of copperas in the same way.
Spraying with the Bordeaux mix
ture should be done as soon as the
leaves are out well, again just after
the vines are in full bloom, and
again after the fruit is as large as
pease. Some prefer to tie up the
grape punches in paper bags of the
one and half or tWo-pound size,
pinning them on as soon as the
punches are formed we'll. Nearly all
the work must be done in the way
of preventive, and for this reason
must be done early in order to Sc
cure the best results.

FARM Notes.


AS a rule, when the first cells
are sealed over the swarm is ready
to come off.
A shallow frame is best for the
production of honey and a deep
frame for brood nest.
In order to have nice straight
combs and save the labor of the
bees, good supply Of foundation is
necessary.
No matter how prolific layer
she may be, the queen must be con-
fined to the space occupied by the
cluster of bees.
Arranging the hives in the apiary
in six-sided form, about six feet
apart each way, is not only very
convenient way, but very pleas
ing way of putting them.
If there are too many frames of
honey in the hive we should draw
them out and insert empty frames
of comb Get the bees strong and
keep them SO during the honey sea-
son.
Strong colonies at the beginning
of the honey season are the ones we
must depend upon. 1t is always
better to sacrifice numbers rather
than to have too many weak colon
les.
No one should ever think of rails
ing surplus honey to send to market
in the lower story of the hive or the
brood chamber. A good quality of
comb honey cannot be obtained so
near the brood nest.
Swarms may be hived on empty
frames with success, but when hived
in this way care must be taken that
the hive is set level, so that the
combs will hang plumb in order to
insure straight combs.
Bees may be increased rapidly
now by spreading the brood combs
and placing empty frames of comb
between them. Use the best and
straightest combs for breeding. The
rough, uneven comb will do for ex-
tracing.
The way to get bees to work in
surplus boxes is to get the colony
full and strong below and arrange
the surplus boxes with pieces of
honey-comb as foundation for start
ers. Then, if the bees do not take
to them readily, drive the bees to
them with smoker.
To handle bees with the least
trouble, select warm, bright day,
when the bees are flying freely.
The warmer the day, the less dan
ger Of stings. From 8 O'Clock in the
morning until 3 or in the after
noon is the best time, and the near
er to IL o'clock the better
All boxes containing comb honey
should be removed from the hive as
soon as completed. Thus the boxes
will not be soiled and the white
ness of the comb be sullied by the
frequent passing Of the bees over
them. The best time to do this work
is when the greatest number of bees
are at work in the fields.
About the first symptoms of foul
brood will be in the cells of capped
brood, the Gaping Of which will be
sunken and perforated, the larvae
in the cells will have a brown ap-
pearance, and as the disease advan-
ces Will become darker. The disease
is very contagious and will spread
rapidly from hive to hive.

wALLER'S FAREWELL.

The Ex-Consul Is Dying in the Prison at
Nimes-A Touching Message.
WASHINGTON, Nov 11.-John l. Wal
Ter is dying in the prison at Mines
His family, who are waiting here
anxiously upon the state department,
do not believe that he will live another
month.
Letters have been received from him
in which he predicts his early death.
Every member Of his family, and there
are six of them in ALL has received q
touching message of farewell.
He tells his wife and children
that he is sinking fast, and that they
will probably never hear from him
again.
Unless Waller was actually in the
serious condition he represents the
prison censors would never have al.
lowed his letters to be sent. He was
i'll when he left Madagascar. Ever
since he has been in the prison at
Mines he has been sustained on inva-
lids food.

wAsHINeroN, Nov. 11.-First Assist.
ant Postmaster General Jones has sub
mitted his report. II calls attention
to . saving in his branch of the service
during the past year Of 81, 895, SIT. Mr..
Jones recommends an appropriation Of
81, ,OOO, 900 to cover compensation
of postmasters for the next fiscal
year, and $40, 10000 for clerk
hire at first and second
class post offices. He recommends the
order recently promulgated by the
president, providing for the consolida-
ton of fourth-class post offices and
says the only positions at first
class post offices that are
now excepted from civil service
examination are assistant postmaster,
private secretary and stenographer,
cashier and assistant cashier; at Sec
ond-class offices, assistant postmaster.
Mr.. Jones does not favor maintain
ing experimental free delivery service
In towns and villages but states that If
the people still demand and he assumes
congress will pass the necessary ap-
preparation to establish the service.
In view of the great saving effected
and the general improvement in the
service, especially in the large cities,
Mr.. Jones recommends the employ.
ment of a number of men in the larger
offices whose regular duty it shall be
to inspect the work Of carriers, make
suggestions as to extensions and
changes of routes, and, in fact, to
have general supervision of the
work of carriers outside of post Of
fees. Mr.. Jones says that besides the
actual saving affected, the improved
efficiency in the service in the offices
investigated must be credited to the
secret service. At every Office the dis
oipline of the force and efficiency of
the service have been much improved,
the work more equally distributed
among the letter carriers, and at
many Offices extensions made and ia
eilities increased without addition al
cost.
The assistant postmaster general
recommends that the attention of con-
gress should be called to the advisa bill
ity of providing penalty for the use
of the postmark from the stamp for
unlawful purposes, or for counterfeit
ing it, or for placing an impression
thereof upon an envelope or postal
card for the purpose of deception. He
says some penalty for the unlawful use
of the franking privilege should be i'm.
posed.

STILL SEARCHING.

The Work of Taking Victims Of the Detroit
n Explosion From the Ruins Goes On.
DETROIT, Nov. 9.-Rain adds to the
gloom around the scene of Wednes-
days Larned street disaster. The
crowds have dwindled to a few hun
dreds of the curious and the friends
and relatives Of the half dozen persons
who are still counted among the miss
ing. It rained nearly all night, but
despite the almost steady downpour
the men at work on the ruins of the
Davis & Co. establishment, No. As
Larned street, kept steadily at
work and by daylight every bit OF
wreckage had been cleaned out and
the basement floor was absolutely
clean. BY this time the walls of the
journal building had been shored and
work began on the wreckage of build
ing No. AZ. 1t was still raining hard
when the day shift came on duty, but
the work did not stop for an instant.
The shift comprised more than q hun.
dred men and two dozen teams and
the wreckage is fast disappearing.
To facilitate the work much of the
wreckage of No. AZ is being thrown
into the cellar of No. "a, and it will be
only few hours now when the bodies
of those still missing will be recovered.
The boilers also will be uncovered and
the blame for the disaster fixed beyond
all question. Late Thursday night a
body of workers who were picking at
the ruins of No. AZ uncovered the head
of girl whose body was pinned be-
meath the heavy timbers lying along
the Journal building. She was pretty
girl and was not disfgured.
Geroge Uhlick, who was digging in
the ruins ever since the accident oc.
Cured, looking for his sister Anna,
who was employed in Killers, was
among the group which found the
body. The boy recognized his sister
Immediately and his grief was awful.
1t was ten o'clock Friday morning be.
fore the girls body could be gotten
from underneath the heavy timbers.
At 1:O15 the workers uncovered the leg
of man. He is buried under heavy
machinery, and it will bo some hours
before the body can be removed.
The body under the heavy machin.
cry was recovered shortly after noon
1t was crushed and mangled beyond
all recognition, but was identified by
the clothing as that of Charles Lind
With the exception of Annie O'Don
oghue, who is still in a critical condi
tion, all of the injured are doing well
and will recover. Friday morning the
prosecuting attorney ordered thai
Engineer Thompson, who was il
charge of the boilers of the Journa
building, be kept under police surveil
lance. Thompson will be kept under
surveillance until the cause of the
boiler explosion has been thoroughly
investigated. If he is well enough h
will be taken to Central station, if no
policeman will be kept on duty a
his bedside.

An Important Office.

To properly fill its Office and functions,
it is important that the blood be pure.
When it is in such a condition, the
body is almost certain to be healthy. A
complaint at this time is catarrh in some
OF it's various forms. A slight cold de.
velops the disease in the head. Drop.
pings of corruption passing into the
lungs bring on consumption. The only
way to cure this disease is to purify the
blood. The most obstinate cases of ca.
tarrh yield to the medicinal powers of
Hoods Sarsaparilla as if by magic, SIM
ply because it reaches the seat OF the
disease, and by purifying and vitalizing
the blood, removes the cause. Not only
does Hoods Sarsaparilla do this but it
gives renewed vigor to the whole sys.
tenn, making it possible for good health
to reign supreme.
