Best Winter Food for Bees.

Too many people have an idea that,
while only the best honey will do to mar
ket, anything that the bees will eat, is
good enough for them. The first part of
this idea is all right, the second all wrong.
Probably the greatest winter danger to
bees is from dysentery, and that is usually
caused by improper food or cold hive.
OF the two causes, the first is the most
common. When the autumn honey flow
is limited, and much space remains un-
filed, the bees undertake to patch out
their stores with the juice of decaying
fruits, etc. This is totally unfit for them,
says American Gardening, and particu-
larly fatal during the fall and winter,
One should be careful, too, what artificial
food is given to them in the fall. Save
dubious material you want cleaned up till
spring, when, if not absolutel y poison, it
usually will not injure them. Of course
nothing questionable may be given them
while the sections are on.
The best bee food for winter is pure
white honey. That seems to contain the
least indigestible matter. Next to this
comes pure honey of darker shade. If
artificial food be necessary, use pure
best ut any time, but so much of success.
ful wintering depends upon good food
that one should be especially par
ticular in the fall feeding One may at
times have other materials quite as unob
jectionable as this, but where one is in
doubt, the advice of an experienced api-
artist should be sought before using it,

agencies of encouragement are noted.
The Charleston News and Courier
offered valuable prizes for the three most
successful hog growers in South Carolina,
the contest recently closing for the year.
''The contest for the prizes offered to the
three nost successful hog growers in the
State this year." says the News and Cou-
rier, "closed at midnight on the 18th in
slant, last Tuesday, and reports of the
weight of these hogs, with other required
particulars, are coming IN daily by mail

We are glad to receive them-tbe more

The competition in hog growing did not
end this week. It has just begun. The
contest for the News and Courier prizes
was only the first of many. 1t will be
followed by contest in every county
and every district in the State, we hope,

This species of kindergarten education

extended or too energetically conducted.
Frecept upon precept eluc!oated WIN eA-
ample upon example in the promotion of
judiciously diversified and self>sustaining
industry should be the order of the day
through all the rural communities of the
south.
"The South" says the New York
Morning Advertiser, "must sever the
cotton tie, 80 to speak, which binds it to
King Cotton, and cotton more to the hog.
There is hope for the south in the hog.
The hog is not especially aesthetic, but
there is money in him. Money, as we
understand it, is what the south wants.
The suggestion is blunt and homeIy, but
it is eminently pertinent.

Small Farms,

Tenants, buy farm. If you can only
get three acres; buy farm; by all that is
sacred in your household; by your wife
and helpless babes; by your love of home
and hope of future rest, buy you home,
however small it may be. Buy it now
while lands are cheap. Do not wait un-
til foreign immigrants come in and pur>
chase all of the surplus acres, when you
will have to pay three or four times the
present price for little homestead.
Things will change soon, diversified
crops and high price for cotton will soon
create demand for southern lands. For
eign immigration will soon flow to us
then in tidal waves. Let every farmers
son mark him out home and pay for it
before be gets married. Let every cou
pie from the rural districts unite two
homesteads with their two hearts and
thus let the old chival'y of the south
still dominate the new civilization which
is rapidly coming upon US. A county
sheriff has become president in the very
recent past. A farm tenant may become
president in the near future. We are
all Americans and the pathway to the
highe>S position is open to all.

ging the compost heaps, about which we
have good many Inquiries at this season
it is most important to guard against the
escape of the ammonia. They should be
covered with earth packed down, and pro-
tected from the weather. Acid phosphate
if mived with the compost, will be found
to materially aid in conserving ammonia,
but it cannot be used if lime is present.
The application of compost is found par.

heavy. On light soils, the advantage is

Field Experiments with PotatOs

made by the New Jersey Agricultural
College are, briefly, as follows: The re-
suits of recent field experiments with
Irish and sweet potatoes are at least sug-
gestive. Manure increases the scab and
soil rot. Lime increases the scab, but
diminishes the soil rot and tends to make
sweet potatoes sound. Kainit diminishes
t he scab, but insreases the soil rot. Sui
pbate of copper diminishes both scab and
soil rot. Suphate is all things considered,
that the experiments suggest.
For the Irish potatoes, it is suggested
that the flowers of sulphur, costing two or
three cents pound, be used with the
freshly cut seed in the hopper of the
planting machine.
For sweet potatoes the sulphur might
be mixed with five times it's bulk of fine
earth, and spoonful of the mixture
placed in the hill just before setting out

Proper Care for Horses.

When the horses stomach ceases to
digest one or two things usually takes
place-either the food remains unchang-
ahle, or.ft ferments In the one case the
horse is probably foundered; in the other
he has collie. It is hard to understand
how undigested food diseases the feet, but
it does. Collie may be escaped if water is
withheld.
Heavy draft horses are much more often
subject to collie than light, fast working
horses; in fact, the latter are little liable.
This is accounted tor in the fact that the
work horse in long in the harness and
comes home eager for bis teed and this is
generally given him in great abundance,
and it is eaten too fast. The preventative
is self suggested
1t is said that there are more blind
horses in America than in any other
country, and these are found chiefly where
they are stabbed and highly fed for the
purpose of fattening. Blindness seems to
bear sympathetic relation, we thus see,
with indigestion. Another serions source
is from the bad, UNIV wholesome stables in
the cities.
AS an athlete undergoes training for his
work, 80 with equal care the farm work
horses should be groomed and exercised
through the winter, that they may be in
the finest working condition when the
working season arrives. Then they can
do everything of which a horse is capable
without strain or injury.
Animals cannot thrive their best when
food is given them at any time of day or
night which happens to suit the convent
ence Of the feeder, Irregular feeding dis
turbs and deranges the organs of digestion
and assimilation, so that they fail to make
the most out of the food supplied. If food
is given before it's regular time there is
overloadings and the organs are put to
work before they have recovered from
the previous meals, if delayed, the animal
is apt to eat too much and too rapidly;
there is poor mastication and digestion,
and, therefore there is loss and harm.
In stunting rations we fail to make all

supersede the old fashioned saw cutting
machinery, while the new process OF
packing the cotton in small round bales,
apparently as hard and compact wood,
will do away with much of the risk and
waste OF the present plan of packing and
shipping. The danger from fire will be at
a minimum, the labor of handling will be
comparatively light, and the loss from
waste, stealage, etc, will be 80 reduced AS
TO almost pay the expenses of shipping,
while our present reproach of sending out
the most ragged and unsightly cotton
bales received in the markets of the world
will be entirely removed.
