Whitewash for scale.

A Tennessee correspondent, in
regard to the destruction of scale
by lime wash, remarks that he
practiced it successfully half cen
fury ago, adding, however, a little
SCOT to the lime wash in order to
take away its blaring color. 1t has
also been in use by the old German
settlers of Pennsylvania for coup
lie of centuries, who applied it not
merely for the destruction of scale,
but for all other insects and in
furious fungus. No trees can be
healthier than those old fashioned
people can present No one need
fear the San Jose scale, or any
other scale, who applies annually a
coat of whitewash as describ bed.
So many of these admirable horti-
cultural practices of our forefathers
have been suffered to fall into dis
use to be replaced by other more
complicated and less satisfactory
applications that correspond. Those
who bring these old worthy prac-
tees again to the foreground de-
serve more thanks than those who
are continually talking of new no.

Notes for Beekeepers.


of its superiority.
Lack of ventilation often causes
dampness in the hive.
If bees are to be moved it should
be done before cold weather
70 winter safely bees should have
thirty pounds of good stores.
Italian bees and strong colonies
are rarely if ever injured by moths.
Only pure, clean unbleached wax
should be used in making founda-
tons.
1t is seldom profitable to 60 into
Winter quarters with weak col
onies.
Bees never bore for nectar, but
seek only that which is fully ex-
posed.
Comb honey during the Fall and
Winter should be kept in warm
room.
Ship to distant markets only
when the home market is fully sup
piled.
Try broken butcher knife with
blade two inches long for prying
up supers.
Grade all honey carefully and
then set prices to correspond with
the grade.
At this time give plenty of room
for queen and workers, as Fall stor-
ing begins.
If colonies are in proper con-
dition in every respect robbing sell
dom occurs
Honey costs practically nothing
and Is a valuable produce, consid-
ering the price.
Bees rob only at such times as
the general scarcity Of nectar for
bids honest gains.
Bees that lack stores should be
fed in Autumn. September is q
good time to do it.
Empty frames Of combs should
be we'll taken care of during the
Winter, when not in use.
Any queens which do not seem to
be prolific should be superseded as
soon as the fact is known.
Strong colonies are rarely molest-
ed and are almost sure to defend
themselves against intruders.
Remove all surplus boxes and
frames, as soon as storing ceases,
which is usually about the middle
of this month.
The lack of fecundity in the
queen may be due to disease, i'm
proper development or to special
race or strains,
Usually closing the entrance so
that only one bee can pass at
time is good protection for weak
hive against robbers.
Worker bees reared in Autumn
may live eight or nine months, and
sometimes longer, but in Spring
and Summer they die in from 80
to 80 days.
The young bees in the hive build
the comb, ventilate the hive, feed
the larvae, queen and drones and
cap the cells. After they get older
they do outside work
Bees, by the rapid vibration of
their wings, have the power to ven
tilate their hives. In this way they
are able to reduce the temperature
in Summer and temper the cold of
Winter.

To Prevent Hog Cholera.

A Wisconsin stock grower, writ
ing to the Iowa Homestead, says:
We believe, if you could educate
the breeders and feeders how to feed
and take care of their hogs, there
would be very little hog cholera in
the country. We believe hog chol-
era can be prevented. We have
raised hogs for 35 years and have
had cholera but once during that
time. There is too much corn fed
to pigs. A variety of feed should
be fed Young pigs should get very
little corn until they are six months
old If they are fed for health and
growth the first six months of their
lives with proper care, the chances
are they never will have cholera,
Afterward they should have the
run of good grass pasture and all
the salt and ashes they will eat,
plenty of mill feed, good water, and
above all good place to sleep in.
Their pens should be cleaned out
every day, and their bedding twice
week. If farmers would grow
more root crops and less corn and
feed their hogs good supply dur
ing the Winter, there would be less
cholera in the country.

Extremes OF Rich and Poor MILK.

The radical difference between
Jersey milk and Holstein milk is
that one is rich and the other poor
in butter fat. There are many
other important points where Elm
they differ, but this is the most i'm
portant, because it is the one point
upon which the market value of all
milk depends. 1t SO happens, too,
that the Jersey and Holstein repre-
sent the extremes of rich and poor
milk among breeds of cattle. In
every one of great many com
parative analyses of milk from the
different breeds that | have seen,
the Jersey has stood highest and
the Holstein lowest in per cent Of
butter fat. The difference between
the two is always great, often as
much as 100 per cent, / pound of
Jersey milk often showing as much
butter fat as 2 pounds of Holstein
milk. This is fact so often dem
onstrated that it is now beyond dis
pute.

O'Neil Must Hang.
Supreme Court Overrulrs the ExceP-
tIons Ofthe shelburne Falls Murderer.


lions ofthe sheIburne Falls Murderer.
The full bench of the supreme judicial
court has overruled the exceptions taken
by John O'Neil, convicted of the murder
of Mrs. Hattie K. McCloud on Jan. at
ShelDurne Falls. The rescript in the case
will be sent to the clerk of the Franklin
county courts, and the superior court JUS
tees who tried the case will fix the time
for imposing the sentence.
The court, in its opinion, says that
among the circumstances relied on by the
commonwealth was the alleged possession
by the defendant, Immediately after the
murder, of money which the deceased had
in her possession when she was attacked.
The objection to this was general on the
ground that it was too remote. The testi-
mOny tended to show that the prisoner
had no money Of any kind a short time be-
fore the murder; that the woman muir
dered, some hours before the murder, re-
ceived two checks and paid various bills,
so that she had SIS 81, part of which was
in the form of ten. dollar bill and a five
dollar bill; that after the murder the
amount of money found in the prisoner
possession was $3.50, consisting of ten
dollar bill, tive-dollar bill and fifty cents
account for the possession of this sum of
money, and in talking to a prisoner in the
Jail he admitted that he had $40 of the
murdered woman's money and said that if
he had not been drunk il would not have
happened, although he denied choking her.
There was evidence to show that the wom-
an murdered was absent from her house
after receiving the checks and nothing to
show that she had returned to the house
after leaving for the village on Jau. 8. The
house was searched on Jan. 10, and only a
few cents in money was found therein.
Upon this point the court says
1.-The testimony objected to was that in
regard to the financial transactions of the
deceased on Jan. Z, and in regard to the
search of the house on Jan. 10. The OBJ
jections go to its weight rather than to its
competency. That the possibility of her
having expended money other than that
shown was not absolutely excluded, did
not render the testimony incompetent. The
details of her dealings aud the circum-
stances of her life shown by the testimony
might have satisfied the jury that the prob
ability of such expenditure was exceeding
| ly small. The bills were not identified by
earmarks, but they correspondent in demon
ination, and such likeness is often proper
| to be considered ia connection with other
| discriminating evidence. In the present
case the testimony was not only to be con
sidered in connection with other circum
stances tending to show the guilt of the
prisoner, but also with the prisoners adj
missions on this very point that he had SIC
of the deceased. The testimony objected
to was proper for the consideration Of tn,
jury in connection with the other evidenc,
in the case. Exceptions overruled."
