How Long TO Keep stock.

The age to which an animal can
be kept to the best advantage is de-
pendent upon SO many contingen-
cies that no infallible rule can be
laid down as applicable under all
conditions. Generally an animal
grown especially for meat should be
ready for market when fully matur-
ed, as after maturity is reached
there is less return for the food sup
piled. The feeding should be such
during growth, especially during the
latter part, that the animal will be
fully ready to sell when it is matur-
ed. Of course, some animals can be
proftably kept longer than others,
SO that some judgement is required
in determining this point General
ly, however, it may be set down as
safe rule that great age is utterly
incompatible alike with the best
profit, and the best quality of stock
intended for the butcher. Other
things being equal, the maximum
of good is derived from live stock in
its growth or in it's prime.
With work or breeding animals,
including the mich cows, whenever
decadence has clearly setin, place
| is being filled that a Younger. thrift
Ter and more vigorous animal could
occupy with greater profit. After
an animal has passed its most pro-
fitable time, the sooner it is fatten-
ed and marketed the better, as it
certainly is not good economy to
continue feeding an animal that
does not give good return in some
way for the food consumed.

If one contemplates making a
large quantity of evaporated pro-
ducts from year to year, he should
give particular attention to the plan
of his building as we'll as of the
evaporator itself. A basement is
handy for coal and storage, and it
contains the heating apparatus.
The first floor is the receiving room
for the fruit, the Office, and either
this room or a wing contains the
pairing machines, bleaching boxes,
and other accessories. The second

The principal objection to at
tempting to fatten any kind Of
stock in Winter is the extra food
required to maintain animal heat,
in this way increasing the cost.
Another item that should also be
considered is that in shipping there
is an increase shrinkage Nothing
will SO quickly reduce the weight
of ripened animal as travelling
any considerable distance in a stock
car, with the thermometer below
zero, and when the margin Of prof
it is small at best this is an item to
be considered. Animal life is sus-
tanned by combustion, and in feed
ing to fatten and in shipping to
market, sustaining animal heat is
an important item. To fatten and
ship all kinds of stock economical
ly the highest degree of comfort is
essential, and a failure in this re-
spect will add more or less to the
cost.
With fattening as with growing
stock there must be steady gain
from the time feeding begins until
the animals are fully ready for mar
ket. With the poor shelter too oft
en- given the stock, anything like a
fair gain is impossible in severely
cold or stormy weather On this
account the better plan is to feed
so as to keep the stock in good
thrifty condition, doing this as
economically as possible, and then
fattening when the conditions not
only of fattening, but of shipping
are more favorable.
In making the most out of the
stock, every item must be consider
ed, and the cost lessened wherever
it can be done without lesssening
the gain or lowering the quality
For these reasons it is usually not
advisable to attempt to fatten stock
during the next two months.

Notes FOR Bee Keepers.


Bees often starve, sometimes
smother, but rarely freeze to death.
Drone-laying queens and fertile
workers are the pests of the apiary.
A home market well worked
brings better returns than one at a
distance.
1t is impossible to secure a good
crop of honey where most of the
bees in hive are old.
The best remedy for sting is to
plunge the part into cold water or
apply ammonia or soda.
Queens have been known to live
and do good work for five years,
but this is an exception.
1t is often disastrous to the honey
crop to introduce young queens into
the hives in the Spring.
Worker bees never attain a great
age. Those raised in the Fall may
live eight or nine months.
To make the most out of his bees,
every beekeeper should understand
the sources of honey in his locality.
Honey for sale should be put on
the home market, SO that it will be
neat in appearance, and the quality
should correspond.
At least a sufficient number of
bees should be kept on every farm
to furnish honey for the table, but
begin with few hives.
Bees wintered on summer stands
will require looking after occasion
ally to see that the entrances do
not get entirely closed up.
A strip is made by using one
quart of water with two of sugar.
Stir in the sugar while the water
boils until all is dissolved.
Never leave sections of surplus
honey in the hives over Winter. If
done, it will certainly spoil and be
only fit for feeding purposes.
Bees require very little air during
cold weather, but should warm
spell come and they find themselves
closed up, they get excited and will
often smother themselves to death.
The drone bee is the male bee,
and his only Office is to fertilize the
queens. One time mating with a
drone lasts as long as the queen is
able to do good service in the hive.
Do not pull up covers that the
bees have sealed down unless COM
PEELED to do so. They want their
hives alright at the top to prevent
ventilation or cold draughts in
Winter.
There is no insect that can rival
the bees in cleanliness and order
Many bee-keepers might profit from
them in lessons of neatness, espec-
tally in marketing the products OF
the bees labor,
Besides losing it's beauty and fine
appearance honey kept in cellar
gets watery and its flavor is lost,
which makes it unstable. 1t should
be kept in warm room, near blood
heat, but not above it.
The worker bees perform all OF
the work of the hive, gather in the
honey, pollen and water, and secrete
the wax, build the comb, ripen and
cap the honey, nurse the brood
queens and drones and defend the
colony.
Usually beeswax is dark because
of impurities, such as particles Of
pollen, propolis, etc. These remain
mixed with wax because the wax
cools too rapidly to allow them to
settle. The secret of getting wax Of
bright yellow color is to cool il
slowly.
Worker bees are all undeveloped
females, but under certain con
ditions they are capable of produc.
ing eggs. When a colony is queen.

4 physician i'll New York advocates
eating a raw apple just before going to
bed; and a veteran physician in this city
declares that he owes great measure OF
his health to the eating of one, two, three
apples at that ti.ne-really almost his
chief meal Of the day, for the slenderest
OF eaters at all times. The New York
physician adds of the apple: ct is an
excellent brain food, because it contains
more phosphoric acid in easily digestible
shape than any other vegetable known.
1t excites the action of the liver, promo
ties sound and healthy sleep, and
thoroughly disinfects the mouth. This
is not all The apple agglutinates the
surplus acids OF the stomach, helps the
kidney secretions, and prevents calculos
growths, while it obviates indigestion,
and is one of the best preventatives
known Of diseases of the throat"
