Why Bees Do Not Swarm.

There are various reasons why bees do
not swarm. Here are some of the rea-
sons specified by Kansas Farmer:
In tine first place, it is well known
that the common or black bees do not
increase to such an extent under the
same conditions as do the Italian bees.
The honey season has also much to
do with it. During a scarcity of hon
ey, bees will not increase so rapidly as
if the honey flow was heavy. Also the
size Of the hive has much to do with
the control Of swarming. If abundance
of room is given black bees for storage,
they will seldom swarm at all, even in
the best Of honey seasons. Plenty of
storage room has much to do in control
ling the swarming of Italian bees, but
they are more liable to swarm than
blacks. 1t is very important to have
beehives just the right size, even if
they are made old box fashion. A very
large hive will never produce good re-
suits any way you take it. Hives
should be made sectional, and if at any
time more room is needed add another
section The required size, as given in
our standard works, is about 2, 900 cubic
inches

ing in of manure may depend somewhat
on the crop also. 1t is plain in the case
of shallow rooted crops, like lettuce,
radishes onions, straw berries, etc. that
the manure is not wanted at the same
level as with parsnips, cauliflower and
other deeper rooters Then, again, sur
face manuring may, as in the case of
strawberries, serve an excellent purpose
as a mulch in keeping the soil cool and
in preserving moisture.
Another thing, all crops do not need
the same amount of manure. 1t is a
poor plan, for instance, to be lavish in
the use Of manure on potatoes and
then slight it on onions and celery
Among crops that do the better for high
feeding 1 would place strawberries, cell
cry, onions, lettuce, spinach, beets,
radishes, cabbage, caulifower, squashes
and cucumbers. Of such, the extent of
the crop is almost measured by the
amount of manure, and 80 to 40 tons
per acre each year is none too much
The bush small fruits need less manure
than do strawberries, while vegeta-
bles, potatoes, peas, parsnips, carrots,
beans tomatoes and melons get along
very well with one-half the manure
called for by the others named.

Sugar Maple Trees.

The demand the last few years for
maple sugar has been such as to warrant
improved methods The maple sugar
worker Of today is practical and mod
ern. If he is the owner Of bush of 500
or 600 trees he can clear all the way
from $500 to $500 a season. This is
more than three times as much as the
owner of 25 years ago made during the
same period 1t is claimed that a good
maple tree will pay for itself in a couple
of tappings, and in the course of a few
years it will pay for itself in sugar over
and above what it would bring for tim
Der many times over. The consequence
is, farmers are no longer anxious to cut
down their hard naples and sell them
for timber. In planting a sugar orchard
care is taken to select only the broad
leaf hard maple and straight young
trees, trees sprung from the seed as often
as possible, and not saplings grown
from an old stump. These make the best
sugar producers, according to an au-
thority which tells that there are many
degrees of naples, hybrids between the
soft maple and the hard maple They
are all good sap producers, but the sap
produces but little sugar A soft maple
tree will deliver twice as much sap as a
hard maple, but it will not make one
quarter as much sugar, and what it does
produce is Of inferior quality.

Almost every dairy has the profita-

HOW TO APPLY MANURE.
Comparative Merits of Surface Manuring
and Flowing In Manure.

Comparative Merits of Surface Mapuring
and Flowing In Manure.
Elias A. Long learned a lesson in the
application of manure when boy in
his fathers nursery. He tells the story,
as follows, IN American Gardening: We
purchased from a tannery large pile
of compost, hair, ashes, lime and other
refuse, with enough bark in layers to
make all pile up well. In the winter we
drew this on land devoted to nursery
and other crops, usually blowing it un-
der in the spring. Sometimes on fall
plowed land we would incorporate the
mixture with the soil, by the use of the
cultivator CT share harrow, in the
spring.
One of the things that wildly i'm
pressed me as we dug trees and plants
from soil thus MANFRED was the way in
which rootlets would lay hold of con-
genial bits of plant food. The tufts and
felted knots of hair would be the attrac-
ton to mass of small roots. This is
illustrated III the accompanying SKETCH
in which a a show punches of hair.
This thing was seen not only in the case
Of Seeding and t"ee roots, lut also in
those of strawberry plants, which lie
much nearer the sHrface.
A lessen to BE- dram from this is
that tie plowirg in Of manure as a
method Of applying it shoIll not yield
to surface applications in any marked
degree. The av;dity with which roots
seek out and lay hold of particles Of
manure in the case stated showed to me
that there can be 10 mistake in putting
the plant food right where it will be
needed. With the surface and applica-
ton Of manure i'll the fall and winter
there is often great loss Of fertility
through escape by teaching and surface
drainage during thaws in the winter.
If it be drawn to the plat and be kept
in piles until just before spring plow
ing or cultivating, such loss is not APP
probable.
The question Of the comparative mer-
its of surface manuring and the plow-

DIVISION FENCES.
Cheaply Made and Effectively Used In Ohio
For Dividing Pastures.

For Dividing Pastures.
Waldo F. Brown, one of Ohio's pro-
gressive farmers, believes that it adds
greatly to the value of a pasture to di-
vide it into three parts. BY this plan
he changes the cows each week, so that
they will go on a fresh pasture each
Monday, and each lot will have two
weeks to grow for one week to be
Trazed. 1t is made to appear that these
division fences can be made very cheap
~. Following is an illustrated descrip-
ton, originally submitted by Mr.. Brown
to Country Gentleman:
We make division fences with fine
plain wircs-one a ribbon wire to show,
so that they will not run into it, and
with posts 60 feet apart. We stretch
these wires perfectly tight with a ratch-
ct, made to be used with a common
monkey wrench, and then staple a light
paling-1 i inches thick aud inches
wide-every 10 feet This keeps the
COWS from spreading the wires apart
and crawling through These ratchets
cost but 10 cents each and give perfect
control Of the wires, as with wrench
you can at any time take up the slack
in wire, and on level land wire from
90 to so reds long can be stretched
In making this fence the end posts
must be set deep and thoroughly braced,
and then the staples used on the posts
