INDIGESTION I'm PoultrY.

Indigestion is one of the commonest
troubles of fowls and one of the most
easily prevented. Grit takes the place
of teeth with fowls. 1t requires to
be sharp in order to grind up the food
and prepare it for digestion. Yet how
often is the supply deficient? Crushed
oyster shells or sharp gravel should be
accessible to the hens. Acidity of the
stomach is the result of indigestion. 1t
may be corrected by mixing very fine
pulverized charcoal with the food or by
keeping supply of broken charcoal in
the neighborhood of the fowls. One of
the best methods of giving it is to char
a couple Of corncobs once week in the
oven and then let the fowls have them
to peck at. The feeding of charcoal is
excellent at all stages Of the hens exis-
tence, but it is particularly desirable
when the fattening process is going on.

Joke on Her.

The other day in street car man
was crowded along in his seat by the
very fashionably-dresse young wom-
an, who pushed herself in next to him.
Her very full dress skirt further incon-
venienced him, for she was so anxious
to preserve it from wrinkling while sit
ting that she swung its folds carelessly
over the lap of this man next to her.
This person had his own ideas about
proper retaliation. He deliberately adj
justed his large, clumsily-shod feet so
that they appeared to emerge from be-
meath the skirt. 1t was not long be-
fore they were noticed by some one OPP
posite. The effect of the great, awk-
ward feet, as if belonging to the pretty
young woman, was indescribably ludi-
crous. The looker-on laughed and
pointed out the joke to his neighbor.
The looks and laughs spread, until all
the rest of the, car were craning their
necks to see the fun. At last the girl
herself became conscious of the jest at
her expense. With look like thunder
she motioned to the conductor and
hastily left them all. - Philadelphia

SERvIAN BEE FARMS.
They Are to Be Conducted on Strictly
Scientific Principles.

Scientific Principles.
A new industrial departure of great
interest has been taken in Scrvia, where
society for bee and fruit culture"
has been established, says the St. Louis
Globe-Democrat. This society seeks to
introduce system of beekeeping on
scientific principles, and of developing
the industry on a profitable basis
throughout that country, where, until
lately, the peasants have been in the
habit of keeping their bees in conical
straw skeps daubed with mud or plas-
ter, and destroying the bees to obtain
the honey. 1t is probable that the so
ciety will provide the peasants with
cheap straw skeps with supers, as well
as bar-framed hives and other desirable
agricultural appliances. The farm of
the society contains about 200 hives,
placed in regular rows over the ground.
six feet six inches from each other,
facing north. These hives are all on
the bar-frame principle, and of the pat
tern generally known as Dzierzon hives,
and they contain about so pounds of
honey in the comb when full. They
III y VI WOOd, Will uIdW sues, uuu
cost about $2.25 each. The bees appear
to be species of the common bee (Apis
mellifica), but are rather small in size,
and unusually tractable. The Italian
bee (Apis ligustica) does not succeed
well in Servia, becoming quickly
merged into the Indigenous stock.
The bee farm is provided with two
centrifugal honey-extractors Of very
simple design, but peEfectlypractical
After extraction, the honey is put into
glass bottles, with neat screw tops, i'm
ported from Austria, containing re-
spectively half pound, one pound and
two pounds. The price Of the honey
is about II cents a pound, exclusive of
the bottle, for which an extra charge
is made. The wax is sold to the wax
dealers for making into church can
dies, and realizes about 80 cents o
pound. The Importance of encourage
ing bee culture is evidently fully real
lied by the members of this society and
others interested, and the introduction
of law is in contemplation obliging
all priests, schoolmasters and certain
others holding employment under the
government to turn their attention to
the keeping of bees.

HE MADE A DISCOVERY.

How Murat Halstead Was Embarrassed
Mt Meeting q Certain Woman.
The best retort that Murat Halstead
ever received is the one which is de-
scribed as follows: ...
The old law firm of Goldsmith, Col
ston, Hoadley G. Johnson was one OF
Mr.. Halstead's pet subjects for sar-
casm, politically and otherwise. He
caught up phrase which was attrib-
uted to the junior partner of the firm,
Mr.. Johnson, and after calling him q
shining ornament of the Cincinnati
bar for some time the brilliant Mr..
dubbed Mr.. Johnson the brass orna-
ment of the Cincinnati bar This
phrase was so attractive to Mr.. Hal
stead that he never hesitated to use it
every possible way. Halstead's day Of
reckoning came, however.
At an evening gathering Mr.. Hal
stead, who was very susceptible to the
woman in the crowd superbly dressed,
and with diamonds on her bosom and
in her hair that would at once attract
attention. He begged to be presented,
and waste Mrs. Johnson. 1t did not
present itself to Mr.. Halstead's mind, a
little less steady at the time than usual,
who the lady might be. He was curious
about her. . ....
johnson, Johnson?" he repeated,
~ have never had the pleasure of meet
ing you before, Mrs. johnson. Do
you live in Ohio?"
"Oh, yes" replied the lady, brim-
ming over with smiles; II live in Gin
cinnati." ..,... &c.. ......... ......
"Indeed!" said Mr.. Halstead, quite
sstonished. May 1 inquire of what
family of Johnsons you are?'
The smiles were more merry this
time. ,.- .-s.... ..-s

Feeding Bees for Profit.

Many beekeepers must change
their location, go to the flowers, or
change their methods of management.
The beekeeping public says at present
and perhaps always will say, that sugar
honey must not be produced, but there
Is no objection to bees living on cent
sugar instead of 15-cent honey. 1t has
been estimated, and we think fairly,
that a colony of bees consume 60 or 70
pounds of honey during the year. II
a good portion of this can be cheap
sugar instead of high-priced honey, it
may make all the difference between a
fair profit and q serious loss. A change
to better location is preferable, If a
change can be made, as there is more
profit in plenty Of honey from natural
sources than in exchanging sugar for
honey in a poor neutrality-suspicious.

gether. The inner posts, A A, should
lean outward, so as to make the hori-
zontal width along the dotted line, F,
two feet more than the floor width at
III. The posts A and E are placed di-
rectly opposite each other, and braced
together as indicated at Y. The rafters
may be of the usual structure, which
would require cross ties, or joists, ut f;
or else truss frame may be made as
indicated at 3 B and c. A roof on such
a truss frame will not spread, and the
hay carrier may be swung at d.
Fig. 2 represents the shed weather
boarded down to within six feet of the
floor. The door, A, may be hinged so
as to swing down, or may be made
double and open into the barn. In
either case the space for admitting
the hay should be at least six feet
square, and, in fact, eight feet is bet
ter. The rail for the hay carrier would
extend out at B, if truss roof is used;
in ordinary roof, the carrier would be
at top of rafters. If long enough posts
"a and Z, Fig. y may not be bad, use
the longest available 2x6 pieces, and
spike strongly the lower ends to short
posts placed well in the ground.
A drive crosswise through this shed
would be more convenient in many
ways. If the hay is to be baled, the
bales could be conveniently stored. If
Intending to bale, put the hay into the
shed in sections, ten to twelve feet long,
the entire width of the shed, as it will
be much more convenient that way for
getting out. Indeed, it will be the bet
ter way even if the hay Is to be hauled
out, in which case arrange the floor so
as to back the wagon under at X. Fig.

Hints Which May Prove of Benefit to
Well Dressed Women.

"ehrDTosseu "omehs
Fancy braids are still fashionably
used on many styles of dress. Gall
looms both wide and narrow are made
great use of, and are to be found in
all the dark and some of the neutral
tones, matching plain dress fabrics,
the narrower braids usually finished
with u tiny line of gold or silver at
each edge, or they show shot, shaded,
or Persian mixtures and other fancy
combinations in keeping with the
varied color schemes of the season.
Alpaca and mohair used to be count
ed an economical purchase, and per-
haps they deserve the reputation they
have acquired, but as now sold they
can by no means be called cheap fab
RIGS, and shoppers are often surprised
to find them quite as expensive as silk,
excepting, perhaps, the very finest
qualities of silk. 1t must, however,
be said for them that these materials
are double width, and the fact that
mohair is one of the most fashionable
dress fabrics, if not quite the most
fashionable, must not be overlooked
when passing judgment upon it.
Trim, taut and prominently smart
are some of the new spring coats that
are shaped to suit every form and
fancy. Some are belted, others fin
ished with strapped seams and gay
lining. Some are tight-titting in the
back, with loose box fronts, and again
are open-fronted styles with immense
revers that continue into spreading
cape collars, the revers and collar COW
cred with velvety white cloth, stitched
with rows of white silk, or the facing
is of white satin, wrought with colored
beads and spangles. rn fg ur ffu
A great variety of silky looking
feather-weight fancy straws are used
for spring hats and bonnets, many Of
which are in mixed colors, to match
iridescent and Persian dress goods.
Although reduced somewhat in size,
the new round hats are nearly all pic
turesque in effect, although greatly
overburdened with trimming. For
dress occasions the tiny toy bonnet
continues in undisturbed reign. Guam

The Control ofcswarminu.

To control swarming, remove one of
the prime factors. Brood ia the only
factor we can remove and not defeat
our objeet-honey. The removal of
brood, instead of decreasing the honey
yield, rather increases it. We may re-
move the brood by direct confiscation,
or we can do it more gradually by the
removal of the queen. The first method
would be better where the flow is very
short and profuse, the second better
where the flows lasts 40 to 60 or more
days. The cause of swarming Is in
stinct; its control, broodlessness. Other
methods at times seem effective, but the
only method of controlling swarming
that is at all times a success, il brood
lessness. Southern Cultiyator.

Chicken Salad Dressing.

ITO make the dressing, first chill the
plate, eggs and oil. Put the yolks OF
two eggs in a soup plate; add one-halt
teaspoonful of salt and stir with silver
fork until the yollIs are well beaten and
mixed; add the oil, drop by drop, be-
ing careful to always stir in the same
direction, adding a drop of vinegar
whenever the mixture begins to look
oily. Add only acid enough to keep the
dressing from separating. Two eggs
will take pint of oil. Season with salt
and red pepper, and lemon juice, If
necessary. A perfect mayonnise should
not be too acid, as that destroys the
favor Of the oil.-St. Louis Republic.

An Investment Which No Progressive Man
VIII Ever Regret.
The yearly losses of western farmers
In hay and fodder, through exposure
to the weather, aggregate an enormous
amount. Extensive inquiry conTinces
me that nearly or quite one-fourth of
the feeding value of all the hay and
fodder cut and put in stacks, ricks and
shocks is thus sacrificed. 1t is nothing
uncommon to see a whole meadow of
little misshapen stacks and ricks so
damaged and weather-beaten as not to
be worth over half what it would have
been if properly secured in the barn,
and kept in first-class condition.
The best and strongest cheap hay

accompanying cuts. Figure 1 is an end
view of the framing. Posts A A, OF the

NOTES FOR BEEKEEPERs.

Bees, small fruit and poultry make a
good combination.
The queen bee is the only perfectly
developed female in the hive.
The queen lives several years and Ia
useful as laying queen for three
years.
A young queen is more liable to pro-
duce working progeny and an old one
drones.
In the spring if frame of dirty comb
IS put in the hive the bees will clean it
up and make it fit for use.
Worker bees are undcveloped female
bees, and are Matched from the same
kind of eggs that the queens are.
A good, strong colony of bees, To-
Gated where there is plenty of honey
producing flowers will, with good man
agement, produce 100 pounds of comb
honey and still allow another strong
colony to be Eaade from it.'-St. LOWS
