Farm and Garden Notes.

Start the chicks right and keep them
growing.
Plant trees and truly you plant
blessings.
If the little chickens droop, look
out for lice.
Keep lime, grit and charcoal before
the chickens.
Fight the lice; they are sure death
to profit in poultry.
Make use of every broody hen you
can find this month.
Adjusting boards should be used in
hives of all weak stocks.
Colonies having defective queens are
always the foundation of trouble.
Little wooden troughs holding about
pint of sirup are.good for feeding
bees.
Colonies selected for breeding
should contain q good supply of drone
comb.
The supply of drones depends en-
tirely on the amount of drone comb
furnished.
Colonies selected for breeders should
be pushed by early feeding to their ut
most limit.
Have you forgotten the parsnips you
left in the ground last fall? IT'S time
they were dug.
Do not feed in the morning, as it
tends to cause robbing and to make
the bees restless.
It'll just as necessary to select for
the production of drones as for the
production of queens.
Bees are not apt to attach comb to.
cloth, so cloth divisions between
frames serve as a guide.
Be sure that the entrances to the
hives are keep open. The bees want
good, fresh air to breathe.
Pollen is always stored in OR near
the brood nest, aud here is the place
where the bees will cluster.
Queen bee cells should never be re-
tanned in any colony except one that
IS in a natural, healthy condition.
Ii the seed is poor the crop will be
poor, no matter how much of IN o:,t
lay has been incurred in preparing tho
soil. Plant good seed or none.

Trade of the Philippines.

For several years, beginning with
1893, the imports from theRhilippines
have been considerable The total
value Of Philippine products brought
to the United States in that year was
50, 159, S57. This amount ineludes sugar
to the amount of nearly s., 0@9, 0G0. The
following year the imports were valued
at more than s.. 900, 900, andin the past
three years they have averaged over
S4,000,000. Since the imposition OF o
duty on sugar, there has been gradual
falling off in the importatians Of that
article, and while in 1896 the imports of
sugar were valued OF 81, 210. .902, in 1897
they amounted to only 81, 1919, 202.
Next to sugar the principal articles
imported by the United States have
been textile grasses. These amounted
in 1888 to over Sc, 900, 0c0, and in 1887
to more than So, 000, 900.
During the same period. however,
the United States has sold little to the
PHILIPPINES. The total exports in 1898
amounted to Sl54,37S, and have not
reached that figure since: In 1897 they
amounted to only S94; 5o7. The chief

mineral oils. Breadstuffs and manu-
factures have made MP the remainder OF
a meagre list. -.
Spain, on the other hand, has en-
joyed monopoly OF the tobacco trade
with the Philippines and has furnished
the islands with q greater; quantity OF
manufactured goods and food products
than any other nation Probably much
of this; however; was sent to tue
Spanish forces. In 1896; Spain i'm
ported from the Philippines goods
valued in pesetas at 22,,519, 994, and
sent to the islands goods valued in
pesetas at 3S, 357, 757.
Great Britain and France have also
maintained more extensive trade rela-
tions with the Philippines than the
United States. The total value OF the
foreign trade of the Philippines in 1896,
exclusive Of the trade with Spain,
amounted in exports to $50, S75, 900, and
imports to $40, ,63l, $50. These figures
will doubtless be cited as furnishing q
reuson for the retention Of the Philip
pines and strong effort to secure the
greater part of the trade now enjoyed

sproutinc Potatoes By the Sun.

The practice of sprouting seed pota.
toes in sunlight is an old one and
ranked by many with the old method
of planting s'by the light of the moon"
as pure superstition, but the fact re-
mains that repeated tests by reliable
growers have demonstrated that there
is something in the plan, and that at
least it is worthy of trial. The idea is
TO spread out on the floor of the barn,
where they will get the full sunlight
but not the direct rays of the sun, the
seed potatoes, to keep them there un-
til the sprouts are an inch long, then
planting at once. The sun-sprouted
tubers forced plants through the
ground sooner and the stalks are
stronger than with seed not so treated.
The one great point in favor of the
plan is that sun-sprouted potatoes are
entirely free from scab. Why this is
so must be left to our scientific men
to answer, but it would seem as if the
exposure to the sun in some way de-
stroys the germs of the disease.

this, too, when it is standing alone on
a track? My informant solemnly as
serted, also that "190s" is. subject to
attacks of hysteria. 1t jumps up and

Transplanting Wild Flowers.

In digging the wild flowers,
especially those having dubious roots,
be careful to go deep enough to get
all OF the roots. Leave as much soil
clinging to the roots as possible,
and after wrapping them in damp
moss CT grass, roll the plants up i'll
paper to exclude the air. Gather a
basketful of leaf-mold from Under the
trees where no grass grows, the first
inch on the ground being the best,
and Use this freely in making up the
bed for the reception of the wild
flowers. After planting them in their
new quarters water literally and shade
from the sun for week or more. A
rather shaded location should always
be selected. Home Com
panion.
