"HOG AND HAMONY."

Talk That Applies Equally Well to Cows.
Your last issue contained several
echoes from the great Waco Swine
Breeders meeting. Uncle Snort and
others cause us all to wish that we had
been present to hear and take part in
the hog and harmony talk. of which
every breeder in the state should feel
proud. If we do not all attend the
next meeting, you may rest assured
that it is because we can't 'skeep our
pigs out of the orchard" or because of
some other pressing business.
Meetings, such as that at Waco, are
sure to result in harmony among the
breeders and much good to the state at
large. An honest pull together by
the members of any influential interest
will result in much good to the indi-
vidual and to the community. And
now that the hog men have agreed to
work harmoniously, let the ''cow
men," the dairymen of the state. say
that they will tremendously furnish
waste milk to every hog in the state,
and lend a golden color to the states
production of animarfat.
With pull together" the Jersey
and Holstein breeders can rid our
state of the nasty oleomargarine with
which we are now flooded. Harmo-
NOUS action at this time will give
good state dairymen's association,
able to cope successfully with ''hog
butter" authorities when our next leg
islature meets. The extensive sale of
this stuff in Texas and other southern
states is a reproach to our intelligence
and thrift. At a respectable hotel in
one OF the largest cities of the state i
could get nothing to eat for butter but
oleo, nothing to drink for milk but
Illinois condensed milk. And yet this
state is the stoclxman's paradise.
Our states dairy interest can not pros
per under existing abuses. Many men
are no doubt making money in the
dairy business-I know of such-but
our general interests as breeders and
milk producers are not thriving as
they should. So long as the unfavor-
able legislation in the north and west
forces the producers of 'soleor to ship
south-we may expect more and more
of this 10 and 12-cent butter (?) to glut
our markets. Legislation in Texas, un-
favorable TO this sham, will run it ont
of the state, and double and treble our
home demand for butter. Every pound
of bogus butter consumed kills the de-
mand for two pounds of the genuine
article that would otherwise be eaten.
Under our present constitution, laws
can be SO framed as to practically s~s
clude oleomargarine by forcing ali of
the stuff to bear its own proper name.
Recent decisions in the higher courts
are favorable to the enforcement of
exclusion laws. What is the viii O.
Texas dairymen? Let them speak out
through the state press. II. Connen,

besides Now, we win suppose you have
everything ready to do the work. Have
an empty hive or box to brush the
bees in as you take the combs from
their old hive. Go to the hive you wish
to transfer, give the bees good smok.
ing at the entrance of their hive, and
pound heavily on it with your fist or
stick for a few minutes. This is to
cause the bees to fill themselves with
honey, and this is the main secret in
handling bees at any time without
getting stung. In this condition they
are almost as harmless as flies. After
this is done turn the box or gum on its
side and remove one side of it, or split
it open, as the case may be, SO that you
can best get at their combs. Now take
an empty hive or box and set it where
the old hive was standing, for the field
bees to cluster in, and to rush the bees
in that you brush from the combs as
you remove them from the old hive.
Now proceed to remove the combs and
brood as rapidly as possible from the
old hive, taking them out in as large
pieces as convenient, being careful not
to mutilate brood any more than you
can help. Don't drip and daub the honey
about any more than you can help, as
it would be most sure to cause robbing
later. After you have all brood and
honey taken from the old hive, and
bees brushed into the empty hive or
box fixed on the old stand for them,
take all the old pieces of the old hive
clear out of the yard, as the bees seem
to wont to cluster on any part of the
old hive that they can find, rather than
go to an empty box or hive. Take all
the combs and brood to some warm
room and fit them snugly in the frames,
keeping the brood in as compact form
as possible, as some of it will get
chilled, otherwise. If you do a neat
job of it, it will need little or no
fastening in the frames. But to make
sure, it is good idea to tack thin
strips of wood on either side
of the frames after you get the
combs in them. After a few days
you can remove them, and the bees
will have them fastened to the frames.
After you have all the combs fastened
in the frames fill up the rest of the
frames with comb foundation, if you
should not have comb enough to fill all
the frames (which is not likely You will
have). Now hang all the frames in the
hive, putting them with the most brood
in them in the center, and set the hive
where you wish it to stand, and hive
the bees on the transferred combs as
you would any natural swarm, and
your work is done. OF course there
are other ways that transferring can
be done, but think this one best for
the beginner. / forgot to say in its
proper place that / would leave out as
much of the drone comb as would in
transferring the combs, as we do not
care to raise any more of those worth
less consumers (the drone) than we can
help.-L. b. Smith, in Farm and Ranch

FAMILY ARITHMETIC.

Queer Freak.
The strange names bestowed upon
helpless children by their parents
have formed the subject of many anus
ing stories. In Connecticut town,
some years ago, there lived peculiar
couple who selected the names of their
children apparently with a view of ed
ucational exercises. There were IA
children in the family, and hey were
named for the numerals in regular
order, beginning with "One.''
The father was locally famous as q
mathematician and during the early
years of his children they had daily
tuition which seemed extraordinary
to their playmates, who were pro-
vided with everyday names.
Three ard Four go out to the wood
lings," the mathematical father would
say, appearing before group of his
numerical offspring.
Three and -Four would keep on play
ing ball, or whatever game happened
to be engrossing their attention, but
a diminutive person who commonly
answered to the name of Seven was
sure to drop his play, and start for the
woodbox.

ioiced in the cognomen Two" lived
to attain considerable distinction, and
