Native HAWAIIAN. prote.t.

Washington, Dec. 10. - Senator Hoar

Of foolscap paper, and was forwarded
by Enoch Johnson and Lila II. Aholo,

Patriotic league and the Hawaiian
Woman's Patriotic league, who made
certificate that the signatures were all
genuine. OF the 21,269 signers 10000
were women, and 100 were foreigners
The petition was printed in both the
English and Hawaiian languages, anG
was very brief, merely protesting
against annexation TO the United States
in any shape form" The presentation
Of the petition was witnessed by the
native Hawaiians comprising the dele
cation now here to oppose annexation,
who made their first visit to the capitol
on Thursday. They told those with
whom they conversed that their people

FARM AND GARDEN.
EXTRACTING WAX.
How 10 Perform This Sometimes Nee
esanrY Operntlon.

Although bees are not kept In this
country for the wax they make, IL some
times becomes necessary TO extract the
wax, and the best way TO do il is set
forth in an exchange. the name of which
has been lost.
Tie up the pieces Of comb in piece
Of old cotton cloth. Then take an or
binary baking pan and fill half full OF
water. Across the top of this place two
slender sticks and on the sticks lay the
cloth containing the wax. being sure TO
so place IL that the wax will drip into
the pan and so as 10 prevent the cloth
from touching the water.
Now place the pan in the oven Of the
stove and keep up n moderate heat.
Watch II that the water does not boil
nor the cloth scoTch, as this denotes too
high a temperature. AS the wax be-
comes hot II will drip through the cloth
IA rest on the top in fluid form. al
lowing any impurities in il, such as dirt
or propolis 10 sink through and fall TO
the bottom of the pan.
When the wax ceases TO drip remove
the cloth and stick, and shut the oven
door, letting the fire in the stove die
out and the oven become cold before re-
moving the pan. II the stove must be
used, take the pan out very carefully
and cover il with a pot lid or piece Of
board and cover this with a blanket or
other cover. tucking IL around the pan
To prevent the heat from escaping and
allow II 10 get thoroughly cooled before
disturbing il. If this Is done the inn
purities will all fall 90 the bottom Of
the pan and the cake OF wax, pure and
clean, may be taken from the pan. II
allowed TO cool too quickly the cake OF
wax will crack. Any wax that may stick
10 the pan may be removed with gaso-
line without trouble.
Usually the best place to sell wax Is
20 some manufacturer o. foundation. as
they require irst-class wax and pay the
best prices for II. Often there may be
a local demand for II that will make a
good price for II. II not, II will keep
until price can be secured.

cropp,nr without Rotation.

II is not alone because II - exhaustive
that successive growing Of one crop on
the same land Is bad practice. II Is
precisely the way TO breed insects or
fungous diseases or TO extend the
growth Of noNious weeds. There is not
much successive cropping anywhere
now. The value OF rotation so as TO la.
crease soil productiyeness is better un-
derstood. Yet when settlers go To a
new country they almost always crop
soil that has virgin fertility with the
crop that pays best. which is repeated
until the crop begins TO fail. Almost
always the settlers on new land are
poor. There are so many disadvantages
In removing to the outskirts Of civiliza-
tioh that only those go who have not
the money to buy farms anywhere else

II is officially announced that the Span

Pando, in the province Of Puerto Prinei-
pc, have been pushing the insur-
gent leader, Gen. Maxine Gomez, so
closely that he was obliged, with about
200 men OF his escort, 20 seek refuge in
the woods and mountains OF Las De
licias. The commissioners sent by
Gen. Pando TO different parts Of the
island with instructions TO negotiate
with the insurgents for their accept
ance Of the autonomous form OF gov

returned in n single case. which seems
TO confirm the reports that some Of

HINTS FOR sEEKEEPERs.

Moth worms bother Italian bees very
little.
Spring dwindling is the result of bad
wintering.
Bees require ventilation in the hive
during the winter.
Honey will ripen just as well outside
Of the hive as in IL.
In wintering il is always best TO take
away all but one queen.
The nourishment OF the bee consists
of honey and pollen.
With good care combs may be made
to last good many years.
The size OF the cells does not deter
mine the sex by any means.
A piece of ground taken up with bee
hives is OF little value for anything else
except fruit.
Bees when building comb commence
at the top and hang in heavy clusters TO
their combs.
Keep the brood as near the center ms
possible, and the honey nearest the out
side frames.
DO not allow any drone comb 10 re-
main in the hive except the colonies you
wish TO breed from.
The pure Italian bees show three yell
low or golden bands encircling the body
when the bees are filled with honey.
The hives should not be shifted
around from one place 10 another, as
the bees will get confused and II will
often incite robbing.-St. Louis Re
