EXTRACTING HONEY.
How This May He Done In the Late Fall
and Winter.

How This May He Done In the Late Fall
and Winter.
Many beekeepers experience tronble
in getting thick honey out of the combs
at this time of the year and later ON in
the winter, if the honey is left in the
combs until that time. G. M Doolittle,
whose large experience entities his
opinions to consideration, has the fol
lowing, originally written for The
American Bee Journal, to say on the
subject.
Were it not that a much better arti-
Gle can be produced by leaving the hon
ey ON the hives until the end OF the sea-
son, or until all is thoroughly sealed or
ripened, I should be greatly in favor Of
extracting every third to fifth day dur
ing the season; but if we would have
the best honey which can be produced,
it becomes a necessity that we should ex-
tract thick honey. When l received my
first extractor, 1t came in midwinter l
repaired to the shop, took down some
frames of honey / had stored away, I'M
capped them and tried the machine. As
might be expected, the thing was a
failure. Upon going to bed that night |
thought, Of course, | could not succeed
in throwing out frozen honey, for the
extractor was made for use in the sum
mer time when the weather is hot.
After some study and planning the
next morning found me up bright and
early, with several combs hanging up
near the ceiling of a small ROOM with
q fire built and thermometer hanging
close by the combs of honey. l soon had
the temperature of the room at the cell
ing up to 90 degrees, where | kept it for
six hours. In the afternoon again tried
the extractor, when | could easily throw
out 80 per cent of the honey the comb
contained. Even what was partially
candied eonld nearly all be thrown out,
and the combs hung away so clean that
no bees We're needed to clean them off
to keep them from draining. By hang
ing the combs near the ceiling Of the
room it does not take an extremely hot
fire to keep the temperature at from 80
degrees to 100 degrees, or even higher,
if you have old, tough combs. | keep
the combs in just so much heat as they
will bear without breaking down, for
six hours, and where kept in this way
no one need have IA pound of honey left
in them, as has been reported by some.
Another thing, the extracting, when
done i'll this way, comes when there is
little else to do, as fall and early win
ter is comparatively a time of leisure
with most beekeepers, and by tiering
up and leaving the honey ON the hives
until fall the extracting can be done
when the cares of the busy season have
passed by, and a quality of honey OBJ
tanned which shall be of benefit to our
market, instead Of curse, as unripe
honey always is curse to any market
where put ON tho same.

Onions, like other bulbs, can be easily
preserved if kept dry, and although, if
this is observed, they viii stand con-
siderable range Of temperature, it is de-
sirable that they have temperature of
from 50 TO - degrees. When in damp
room, they start readily, especially if at
a high temperature, and as spring APP
proaches tie buds start even if kept COM
paratively cool. Care should be taken
not to store onions III too large bulk,
and to prevent heating they should be
in shallow bins or in crates.

Ireland. His wife died several
years ago, and all his children are

heart disease for a number Of years,
and last summer told the writer that
he expected to go to bed some night
and not wake up again, and was
trying to keep himself "always
ready" for the summons, come
when it might. His expectations
were realized. He was one Of the
Oldest and first settlers Of Dubois

was then HARRISON township, in
1919. His father, ADAM HOPE.
ST., was the first Sheriff Of Dubois
county, having been appointed in
1878, when the county was first or

President Cleveland sent a mes
sage to Congress on Monday las
on the financial situation, in which
he recommends law for issuing
$500, 900, 900 Of bonds, payable in
gold, bearing 3 per cent. gold in
terest, to run for so years, to re.
deem and retire permanently the
present greenbacks and Sherman
Act notes, now claimed to be in cir
culation as currency, and which
bear no interest. His policy would
compel the people to pay annually
in taxes fifteen millions Of dollars
more than at present-$l. 80 for ev-
cry voter in the Y. 5. in lS92-for
the benefit of men who have money
to loan for the interest, and prefer
an investment where the interest
will be paid every three months
from the Government treasury.
The effect Of the passage of law
such as he recommends, will be TO
contract the currency that much,
and place this country on a perma-
nent gold basis, where its business
interests will always be subject to
the dictation and whims Of British
gold mongers.
He also recommends the retire.
mcnt of all bank notes Of lower
denomination than $40, and all sill
yer certificates of higher denom-
nation than $40, and the substitu-
ton therefor Of silver certificates for
sums less than $40, and bank notes,
redeemable in gold by the banks in
denominations over $1O-thus at
tempting to supply gold currency
for the wealthy, who may want to
spend their summers travelling in
Europe, and so need gold notes, |
and silver currency for the farmer,
business man and laborer. He
would thus build up a class dis
tinction at the expense Of the COM
mon people.
He also tells Congress if it fails to
pass some financial legislation, he
will run the country still further in
debt on his own judgment, BY issu-
ing more bonds to keep up the gold
reserve, which he contends is abso-
lutely necessary to his happiness.
He would also have the law dis
credit the silver currency at the
start, by the Government refusing
to receive it for customs dues, and
making these payable only in gold.
Should the Presidents recon-
be carried out all bust
ness, except the clipping Of coupons
from bonds, will be paralyzed, un-
til The People get whack at it at
the next election, when it is safe to
predict the policy will be overturned.
The votes Of congressman on this
should be watched very
closely by the common People-in
order that they may not be deceived
in 1896.

would be impossible. IL il abnormal
even in the bud. The navel shows III the
bad as early as the latter cau Le ex-
amined under the microscope. i may
even be traced back to the flower. vhich
is double-though that word does not
express the idea very well, each blossom
having a secondary blossom within It,
In the developed fruit the navel is itself
a secondary orange, in some specimens
having a distinct skin surrounding it.
The two story orange is no novelty
A book ON horticulture published IN
1912 gives picture Of the navel orange
and calls it ''pOmum Adami forum. -
This is the earliest reference known.
The blossoms rarely have any pollen, and
the fruit is usually, though not always,
seedlesS The variety Is reproduced by
budding Where it originated is not
known with certainty, but IL was prob
ably in southern Asia Thence il was
brought to the region Of the Mediterra-
mean and eventually diffuSed over the
world A lady who had travelled in
Brazil told Mr.. Saunders, chief gardener
Of the department of agriculture, about
the orange, which she had seen in that
country. Acting on this information.
Mr.. Saunders told Star reporter thar
he sent to Bahia and secured a dozen
young budded trees These reached the
United States in 1870, being the first
navel orange trees known here.
From these trees others were propa-
gated. One of the first batch thus OBJ
tanned is now in the orange house of the
department of agriculture. In 1878 two
Of the trees were sent to Mrs. L. {. Tib-
bets Of Riverside, Cal At the same time
others were sent to Florida But those
planted in California fruited more quick
ly and We're the first TO attract attention.
1t soon became evident that the climate
of that state was better suited 70 the
cultivation Of this variety. In Florida il
is not sufficiently productive. e., docs
not bear freely enough TO be profitable.
Nevertheless the finest navel oranges
come from Florida, though they are not
so handsome rs those from California.
