A Tacoma Apiary.

have become greatly interested IN
bee culture. During the past three
years have made a special study of
modern methods of bee culture. One
of the most important improvements
is the new Heddon hive, it is a divisi-
BILE hive, the brood case being in two
parts, and are readily enterchanged,
which makes it very simple and easy
to handle.
keep my bees under shed. This
is not necessity, but is very con-
venient, both in winter and summer,
as it keeps the hive dry in winter and
answers for shade in summer. 1t is
supposed that this is not good climate
for bee culture, but in the near future
Washington will stand at the head as
honey-producing state, not except
| ing California. Take five years in
succession, and in Washington, think,
the bee-keeper will have more money
| in pocket than in California, because
the seasons vary so much in California.
Reports from California this season
indicate very light crop of honey.
| In Washington the failure of the
honey crop is not known and can be
depended on. A hive OF bees will
make from 40 to so pounds OF comb
honey in a season, according to loca-
ton. In the valleys the honey flow is
longer than in the city. Around Ia
coma the flow lasts about five weeks,
and the bees must make enough In
that time to keep them until next
season, and give surplus OF from 40
to 80 pounds besides.
| I have kept bees as sort OF pleasure
and hobby, and am making them serve
a practical purpose. A part o. my
outfit consists of a carpenter shop,
where honey boxes and hives are put
together, also a room in which the
lhoncy is cared for and which contains

Fruit Notes.

| Planting fruit trees should be gen.
orally finished before the first of the
month, but care will allow planting at
any season. If you have had your
trees carefully heeled in, no particular
danger need be apprehended. Graft
ing can still be done, but great care
| must be exercised as the bark will slip
very easy and bad cut may result.
4 good plan is to make an Incl sion
around the limb where you intend to
cut and have the saw follow the knife
marks. Do not remove all the buds
rom the stock until the graft begins
o grow, as if you do so there will be
10 inducement for the sap to flow up
Yards After the buds on the graft
lave started, then you may remove
hose on the stock in order that the
raft may have the full supply of sap.
There is perhaps no question OF
iore Importance to the orchardist,
or one which causes more discussion
han that of the growing of crops in
he orchard. There seems to be a
sreat reluctance to give up the soil
ntirely to the trees. Much may be
,aid Especially in Western Washin-
ton upon both sides of this question,
yet the fact remains that those who
do not care enough for an orchard to
give it the whole benefit Of the land
should go into some other business.
There is time however, between the
planting and the coming into full bear
ing of the trees when the soil may be
cropped and to the benefit of the trees.
In the Coast counties where the clear
ing of the land is a great factor in
establishing the cost of an orchard
land and while young we may safely
grow crops which will insure to the
benefit of the orchard by reason OF the
thorough cultivation thus given. But
after the trees have reached maturity
no crop should be taken from the soil.
Some may be grown, such as clover,
and pastured by sheep or hogs and
afterward plowed under for the benefit
of the trees. Such cropping will con-
stantly improve the land and benefit
the trees.-Whatcom Farmer Fruit

Fusion Not Likely.

L
Lights On Politics." discusses amons
other phases of the present political
situation in this state the prospects o
a fusion between the democrats anc
populists, taking the position thai
such deal cannot be brought about
and that if it we're arranged the move
ment would be beyond reasonable
doubt meet with defeat at the polls
The P.-I. says:
"The democratic plan of fusion with
the populists, which met with such q
setback in Seattle, and which, because
of issues not of political character
secured a nominal victory in Tacoma
has struck other snags. The candid
acy of Mayor Belt, of Spokane, fo
governor, is not suggestive of the kin'
of fusion the democrats want. Th
populists are ready to let the dem'
Gratis come in after the fashion iona
fused with the whale, but there is
indication that they will stand bac
and let the democrats have the bi
official plums. The Clarke Count
Register. populist, says: The tai
,* regarding state fusion tick
ct composed of populists and demo
Gratis is pure nonsense. We very
much doubt if such a proposition is
even mentioned in the peolpes party
state convention So far as the dem
ocrats are concerned in the proposed
hotchpotch arrangement, they con-
template an abandonment neither OF
their thirst for Office nor of their party
organization. They simply will try
to use the populists to get into power.
Their plans are partly matured. The
delegation to the national convention
is already selected, and everything
seems to indicate that Hugh G. Wal
lace will succeed himself on the nation
al committee. In no event do they
contemplate, in the event of national
success, that the populists shall have
any sort of recognition. Fusion that
does not concede to the democrats the
nominee for governor, as least one
congressman and liberal representa-
tion on the remainder of the state
ticket, will never be indorsed by the
voters. Considering the fact at the
last congressional election In 1894, the
populist candidates received nearly
twice as many votes as those OF the
democratic party, it is not surprising
that the populists refuse to listen to
any proposition that gives them second
place. They know they cannot Sc
cure by aid of the democrats such
legislation as they may desire. Fusion
to them means partial disorganization
confusion of effort with regard to the
national campaign, and the dlstur-
bance of their relations with their
national organization. The democrats
can offer no assurance of swinging the
solid vote Of their party unless they
are practically given control. By Con
ceding this, the popuIists we'll know
they cannot control their own follow.
ing. Fusion looks we'll enough on pa
per, but the facts do not justify the
slightest hope that it will not be adapt
ed in this state"
