Damp weather and Roup.

There is more roup in the spring
months than in winter, due to spring
rains and dampness. While the drafts
of air in the poultry-house may not be
cold, yet they are damp and chilly, rem
dering the fowls very uncomfortable.
1t is at night that fowls seem to take
disease. During the day they are active
and at work, but at night they cannot
change their positions on the roost,
and are consequently helpless to avoid
damp drafts of air. The longer days
and warmth at midday induce the fowls
to remain outside during the spring sea-
son, and they consequently done al
ways resort to shelter in damp spells.
1t is then that they are frequently at
tackled by roup. A little extra atten-
tion until dry weather sets in will great
ly aid in preventing roup and the liza
bility to disease.-Farm and Fireside.

FARM AND GARDEN.
PURCHASING BEES.
Tor the Beginner, Spring II by All
Menna the hest Time.

Tor the Beginner, Spring Is by All
Means the Best Time.
This is one of the puzzles to the be-
ginner, when TO buy. A writer in an
exchange says; All things considered,
think the spring the best time. In the
hands of the master it might pay to buy
in the fall, as they can be bought much
cheaper then. But novice would not
know whether they were in proper con-
dition to winter successfully or not, or
what to do in case they were not, or how
to prepare them in case they needed,
special attention preparatory to going
into winter quarters. But by purchas-
ing in the spring, even though they cost
a dollar per colony more, there is no
Trisk to run, for with reasonable sea-
son they will pay for themselves and
there will be something left.
would advise buying as near home
as possible, to save express charges, as
it is very difficult to ship small lots of
bees by local freight. If you feel timid
about handling them should advise
buying pure Italians, as they are more
quiet than the blacks or hybrids; but If
you are not, would not pay large prices
for any particular strain you may see
advertised in the bee journals. The
honey gathered by the blacks and hy-
brids is just as sweet, and the quantity
just as great as that gathered by the
high-toned or high-priced races, and
no bee on earth builds such delicate
combs, or caps its honey with such vir-
gin whiteness as the poor despised black
bee.
1 would advise, il possible, to buy full,
strong colonies, and wherever you may
live l would advise having them moved
or shipped about the time apple trees
bloom. Make your purchase as early as
possible, but don't be in hurry to have
them moved; they are much better
whre they are until settled warm
weather has come to stay, and the bios
SONS are producing nectar. Perhaps
some of you don't feel able to buy strong
colonies; if not, you can buy two, three
or four-frame nuclei for less money and
at less cost of transportation. These
You can build up during the season, and
make good colonies of them by fall, but
you could not reasonably expect much
increase in number, or much surplus
honey, while, on the other hand, with
strong colonies you can double your
spring count, and with a good season
and good management get enough sur
plus honey to pay for the colonies you
buy in the spring. 1 advise beginners
to make haste slowly, and make the
bees pay their way every season; then
should you meet with winter losses you
will be nothing out but your time, and
will have your experience, hives and
combs lett to begin with another spring.
all of which you will find valuable.

LIVE STOCK POINTERS.

A small amount of the right kind o.
food is better than too much inferior
stuff.
The best means of obtaining profit
with any class of stock is to keep the
best and keep it well.
If the farmer cannot afford to breed
and raise pure-bred stock he can at
least breed and raise good grades.
Clean up the hog pens, the horse and
cattle stables, and disinfect thoroughly
with carbolic acid before the spring
opens.
The cheapest feed is not that which
costs the least, but rather that which
in proportion to its cost gives the best
results.
Early maturity is one of the best
ways of lessening the cost of raising
stock, and good feeding is an essential
to early maturity.-Farmers' Union.

Make n Good BeRinnIpg.

Most of those who begin farming buy
more land than they can pay for because
n part payment on land leaves good Sc
curity for the balance. Then they find
innumerable expenses in purchasing
tools and stock to begin operations.
The temptation always is to economize
in the stock, thinking it is easy to breed
up. Sometimes this is done. but more
often the economy in not buying the
best stock dooms the farmer to the same
labor and expense in caring for it, while
IL is, when grown, not worth half or n
begun right at first.'-Dakotn Field and
Farm.

The Number of Roontera.

The Reliable Poultry journal says:
Dealing with averages, we would sug-
gest that for fowls kept in moderate.
sized yards the following number of
hens to each cock would be found suit
able: Asiatics, seven or eight; Ameri-
cans, nine or ten; Mediterraneans,
IL or IS. Or if free range can be given,
then we would suggest the following:
Asiatics, IL to IS; Americans, Is to go;
Mediterraneans, 20 to 30. In both of
the above instances we have presumed
that the fowls will be well fed. In
deed, we might have made feeding an
essential point, for cock properly fed
will fertillze more eggs, and the chick
ans hatched from them will be strong
er, than one which is under-fed or over
fed or fed upon articles of wrong diet.

ENORMOUS DEATH DUTIES.
Old English Families May he Ruined by
Than.


In order to realize the terrible strain
imposed by Sir William Harcourt's so
called death duties" which excited SO
much sentiment among the land-own-
ing class of Great Britain last year, 1T
may be mentioned that most OF the
territorial magnates who, through the
death of their father or other near
relatives, recently have come into pos
session of the family property, have
been compelled by the burden thus inn
posed upon them to close up their
country houses and to let their shooting
to the highest bidder.
Thus, when a few months ago the
marquis of Bath succeeded to the en-
tailed estates of his father, he was
forced by the death duties which he
had to pay on his fathers estate to
close up Longlat and to lease all the
sporting privileges of the estate to
city merchant, and now it is announced
that the new Lord Saville husband of
that pretty Mrs. Horace Helyar, who,
with her first husband, was connected
with the English embassy at Washing
ton in the days of Lord SaclSville) will
have to close Rufford abbey, one of the
most beautiful country seats in 1.-The
dukeries," the duties in this case
amounting to nearly S1,0o0,000.
| The duties are exceptionally heavy
in this instance; in the first place, be-
cause the new Lord Saville is merely
the nephew instead of the son of the
testator; and, secondly, because of the
immense and extremely valuable art
collection gathered together by the
late lord, who was a famous connois-
seur. Each of his pictures, each of his
pieces of bric-a-brac, has been valued
by experts, a1d on every separate
piece succession duty has to be paid.
1t will readily be seen what a heavy
charge this is upon any inheritance,
and one cannot help pitying, to GER
tain extent, the great land owners and
county families. They are debarred
by the laws of entail from getting rid
of any of their treasures, in which
they have only life interest, and yet
at their death their estate is charged
with succession duties thereon. If the
property happens to change hands
more than once in a year the estate is,
Of course, charged with just double
The amount of duty, and the duke OF
Oevonshire and other opponents of the
Heath duties cannot be accused of any
sxaggeration in that they declared il
parliament and from the platform that
The duties in question, unless altered
will ultimately result in the ruin OF
svery old family in England.
1t is understood that during the forth
.oming session the Salisbury govern
nent will bring forward measure
modifying the death duties as now con
stituted, and will restrict them merely
20 the so-called personal estate" ex
smpting all entailed property and sucl
things as art treasures.-Chicago Rec
