Arranremeut of the Hive.

The bottom board of the hive should
not rest directly upon the ground This
will, in short time, rot out the bottom
of the hive, and will also draw damp
ness to the interior. Cleats for each end
of the bottom-b board should be three or
four inches wide, and when nailed on
brings the bottom proper of hive the
same distance from the ground. This
will allow space for free circulation OF
air under the hive, and not so high from
the ground but that the ground can be
banked up on level with the entrance
of the hive. The embankment should
gradually slope from the entrance, and
on a level from the same, back two feet
from the hive.-Rural World.

HINTS FOR BEEKEEPERS.

Combine bee keeping with fruit
growing.
Bees consume a large quantity of
honey while they are raising brood.
A colony of bees during the breeding
season should have a reserve store of
honey.
In hiving swarms all washes for the
hive are useless All that is necessary
is to have the hive clean and sweet.
The queens of the Italians are decid-
edly more prolific. This is in part due
to the greater activity of the workers.
A young queen just emerging from
the cell can always be safely given to
the colony after destroying the old
queen.
One advantage with italian bees is
that they have longer tongues and can
gather honey from flowers where the
black bees cannot.
BY at once dividing colonies that
show an inclination to swarm and de-
stroying their queen cells the swarm
ing may readily be stopped.
The best time to extract the honey is
Just as the bees begin Gaping. In this
way uHcdpplHS Is dHOloCu, anu N~
honey is thick and nearly ripe.
In order to free the honey from small
pieces of comb and other impurities it
should be passed through coarse cloth
or wire sieve before sending it to mar
ket.
The best honey is apt to crystalline,
but this may be prevented by keeping
it at about so degrees. Unripe honey
will granulate quicker than that well
evaporated.
To secure an abundance of comb
honey the colonies must be strong and
the brood combs full of brood at the
beginning of the honey harvest. The
swarming fever must also be kept down.

CORN FOR POULTRY.
By All odds the Best Grain Food for
Laying Hens.


Samuel Cushman, who is authority on
matters pertaining TO poultry, said at
recent farmers meeting held in Boston
Il he was confined to one kind of grain
be would take corn. With this he would
feed, clover, fodder, corn. meat and 9TH
er like food. Upon being asked IL wheat
does not stimulate laying, Mr.. Cushman
replied that he would not think of Civ
ing up wheat, but wanted to impress his
bearers that too much stress is put on
feeding wheat and too much said against
feeding corn by poultry writers.
This agrees with our experience eX-
actly. We believe that corn is the best
single grain for poultry and feed it
every day. Do not underrate wheat,
for it is good feed to stimulate egg
production, butt is not indispensable to
the poultry keeper.
The great trouble with farm poul-
try is, usually, that it gets corn every
day and all the time. If the hens run
at large they have free access to the
yard where the hogs are fed, and good
many times the corn crib is open to
them at any time. Under these cir
cumstances the hens fill themselves
with corn and do not eat enough other
food to keep them in laying condition.
Corn is essentially fattening grain,
and when we remember that the yolk OF
an egg contains large proportion of
pure fat we see how necessary good
supply of fat-forming food is to the
production of eggs. No single food
provides this so plentifully as corn does,
and the poultry keepr who does not use
it will not have the greatest possible
success.
If laying hens are given light feed
of corn in the morning they will hunt
insects and eat grass enough to satisfy
their appetites and maintain the bal
ance of the nutritive element in the
food they eat.
Grass is perfectly balanced food for
live stock and poultry, and to one who
never gave the matter attention it is
source of establishment 10 learn how
much of it poultry will eat. In the nor
NAL condition of things hen will live
! on grass, but if she is laying she must
| have something in addition to furnish
| the egg material, and this can be sup
| piled by giving her corn more cheaply
than in any other way.
! Long observation convinces us that
corn fed to laying hens makes the yolks
a richer yellow and gives consistency to
the whites of eggs. Eggs laid by half
| fed hen have whites that are thin and
watery and the yolks are often pale and
thin, falling fat when the egg is broken
instead of standing up in the shape of a
half globe.
l., - Zoo ffnTs l1x in q
hens, but too much of it checks egg pro-
duction. 1t is hard to convince people
sometimes that if a little is good great
| deal is better, but in the case of feeding
corn to laying hens it is almost safe to
! say that too much is worse than nome
| Farmers VoiSe.

from the crowd, but interpreted it prob
ably as occasioned by the sight of a
balloon ascension, which was then
would be to-day.
After a minute was able to get my
foot out of the loop in which it had
caught, and so to let myself down into
an upright position. The balloon was
rising steadily. and there was no more
Jerking and apparent motion to the rope
than there would have been had it
been suspended from n high beam III
q barn, and this alone made it possible
for me to cling to it.
81 now found that | could twist one
leg around the rope. and by resting one
foot on the rope where it crossed the
ether foot, / could very nearly remove
the weight from my hands, which was
\ great relief. knew then that l had
a chance to get out of the fix was In,
for I could now alternately rest my
hands and my feet
treasured by this, looked up at the
balloon above Inc, and conceived the
idea of climbing up to it, for, like most
country boys, was expert at climbing.
of il had been taken up from the
ground, so that the distance uPto hecar
was much less than it might have been.
l found no very great difficulty in grad
ually climbing up to position under
the car, stopping very often TO rest.
1T has always seemed strange to me
that the man above didn't discover
meanwhile that he had Il boy hanging
on behind but it can perhaps be ex-
planned by the fact that he was an old
hand at the business. and. us sailing
through the air was no novelty to him.
he didn't spend any time looking at the
scenery below.
He sat there in the middle of the car,
calmly tossing out circulars and smok-
ing his pipe. while l climbed up toward
him so cautiously that | presume
6idn't jerk the rope bit. l wonder
that / hadn't shouted to him at the
very first, but it didn't enter my head
for me to do anything but haEg on and
climb.
when 1 had slowly climbed up we'll
under the car, without thinking what
the effect would be | shouted Hal!Ca!
and the next instant was almost jerked
off the rope. for the balloouist gave n
lump that very nearly upset the car.
and when l caught sight of his face.

EXCELLENT HAY RACK.

main frame of rack, and correspond
with holes in cross-benches B B, where
a one-half-inch bolt 5 inches in length
fastens them together and is itself held
in place with key through it. This
makes a combination rack which, by
attaching endgates and tight board
floor. can be used to haul hogs, tile,
pumpkins, etc, and by placing few
boards on side wings a large load of
corn in the ear can be hauled. AS l
have always hauled a great deal of feed
each winter I detach the sides, place
it on sled and make very good feed
rack of it, upon which to haul feed from
the field to the barn.
My rack is all made of red elm and
painted with two coats of oil and Nene-
tan red, which makes quite durable
paint for farm tools, and better by add
ing a few pounds of white lead. a rack
of this kind will be found very con-
venient upon the farm, and l assure
YOU would not trade it and go back to
the old platform rack.-George W.

Now. boys. keep back said the
aeronaut, as he came into the circle to
make everything ready; keep back. or
some of you will get hurt, with this bas-
ket thrashing about here for by this
time the basket had been fastened on
and the balloon was filed out nearly
full.
The baIloonist threw into the basket
several bundles OF circulars which he
was going to throw out, handful by
handful, as he rose through the air, the
proprietors of various stores in the town
having taken this then original method
of distributing their circulars and
dodgers.
Everything was now ready. The hot
air had been shut off, the mouth OF the
balloon had been closed, and the balloon
list had arranged his circulars ready to
throw out, a dozen or SO at Il time, as
lie went up.
LET go the ropes!' he shouted.
''And the great sphere shot up into
the air, with white paper futtering
out from it on all sides.
II could never tell exactly how it
happened continued my seatmate,
but suppose it was a mixture of boy
ish curiosity and a sudden pressure
from behind, as the crowd surged for
ward; but / know that suddenly STUN
bled forward and fell upon the coil of
drag rope that was being rapidly taken
up. In falling, my foot in some way be-
came entangled in rope, so that a loop
in it caught me by one ankle. and quick
as flash l was going up into the air at
the rate of u mile a minute, hanging
head downward. while great cry of
horror was sent after me by the peo-
pie below.
You may be sure that no more sur
prised boy ever left terra-firma than l
was, when | saw the earth suddenly
dropping away from me, as il seemed.
fortunately, l did not lose my head.

vorabIe for such result. instructive

down beside me and hung on for dear
life.
The aeTonaut above me apparently
knew nothing of what was going ON

In the illustration the sills a A are
2X7 and Is feet in length. Cross benches
B B on sills are 2X4 and feet inches
long, or to suit width of your wagon.
These are bolted onto sills as in en-
craving, using 10-inch bolts, putting
them in from under side of sill with nut
on top of cross bench. These bolt you
will find are an inch too short to reach
through, but are countersunk, an inch,
beneath and a small nail driven through
the hole crosswise to prevent loss of
bolts should nut work off, as they are
apt TO do. The nuts are on top where
they can be seen. The corresponding
cross-bencheG c on wings are feet
inches in length and made by 2x4
stuff These are cut as shown in en-
craving to slide on over sills and fit
under the boards on center of rack.
These boards are Ike and cut right
length to reach as shown in cut of
rack.
The side boards or wings are the same
length as the sills and Ike stuff. These
are bolted and nailed to benches c.
The end ladders can readily be made
after the rack is ready to fasten to-
gether. Will say that ladders on my
rack are feet high and back ladder is
arranged with loose iron pin to boom
the load on at any desired height.
The holes of D D inside wings are
made for purpose of Ringing wings onto

has four or more hooks arranged on one
side to hold the roll firmly and to
stretch each section as it is unrolled. a
pulley attached to the following post
draws the netting tightly past the pre-
ceding post. when it is secured firmly
with staples and the work advanced to
the next post. y fence thus put up will
look neat and will be more serviceable
in retaining fowls, as a sagging top
wire invites attempts at flight.-Anler-
