NOTES FOR BEEKEEPERS.

The bee life is longer or shorter lust
IN proportion to the labor it performs.
Disturbing bees during cold weather
is one of the most disastrous things that
can be done.
Every hive should have a good bot
tom board, which should be planned
smooth, and painted.
A locality plentifully supplied with
clover and Eastwood is a paradise for
the beekeeper and his bees.
New combs that are pure wax and
have been used for surplus honey are
not apt to be injured by worms.
The workers are dwarfed female bees
and so small that they never become
impregnated and do not lay eggs.
You need be seldom troubled with
swarming if all the queen cells are
taken out before they are sealed over.
Bees are the best friends of the grow
ers of small fruits, because they fructi-
fly the flowers and cause the fruit to ma
ture.
Honey improves with age. The older
it is the finer the flavor. Comb honey
should be kept in a moderately warm
room.
Extracted honey is much easier kept
than comb honey The latter is liable
to get soiled and must be kept in light
cases to exclude dust and insects.
Heat does not damage honey, but
tends to ripen and improve it. Damp
ness and darkness damage it. 1t should
always be kept in dry place.
Dysentery is produced by long con-
fnement of bees in close hives during
cold weather. 1t may be caused also
by the bees eating impure food.-St.
Louis Republic.

CORN STALK DISEASE.
Scientists Cannot Agree Upon Its Ma
ture or Effect.

scientists cannot Agree Upon It's Ma
ture or Effect.
The farmers of Nebraska and Iowa
seem to have suffered more from the
| corn-stalk disease this season than ever
before, though comparatively few cases
of it are reported in other states.
DR.. Peters, of the Nebraska expert
ment station, experimental with cattle
in order to learn the exact nature of
the disease and his conclusions were
that a remedy may be found in feeding
grain ration instead of feeding stalks
exclusively.
This conclusion has been negatived
by the experience of John n. Garth, of
Webster City, Ia, as related in local
paper.
Mr.. Garth has been feeding his cat
tie shock corn. They have had access
to water and salt all the time. Thew
were turned into a stalk field one hour
the first day; two hours the second day,
and the third day five of them died.
This case sets at naught the smut the
DRY, the impacted stomach theory and
negatives the conclusions of DR.. Peters
The government has been investiga
ing the disease for four or five years,
but no definite remedy has been discov-
cred. If the disease is not increasing, it
is attracting more general attention
than ever, and farmers soon will become
afraid 10 turn their cattle into stalk
fields where mysterious death turks.
The consensus of opinion is that corn
stalks preserved in IA silo never serve
to introduce the disease. If this is
proved to be fact we may look for
large increase in the number of silos
in the corn belt in the near future. This
would add to the value of the corn crop
and improve its feeding qualities

THE FARMING WORLD.
HINTS FOR BEGINNERS.
Advice to IA Reader Who Wants to
Start in BeekeepinE

Advice to IA Reader Who Wants to
Start in Bookkeeping.
To make a good beginning is always
encouraging. l would advise, says
writer in American Gardening, not to
start with too many colonies, say about
three good strong ones. We generally
succeed better after some experience,
and 1t is economical to gain that before
investing large amount in a new en-
terprise. If there is a successful
aplarist in your vicinity, by all means
visit him and secure his advice. AS a
rule, beekeepers are very generous and
have no secrets of the trade" TO hide
from their fellow men. If possible, it
is best to purchase from q neighbor
apiarist, but very often that cannot be
done. "A Reader" does not state, but
possibly the only bees to be found in
his neighborhood are in box hives If
so, purchase, and move some colonies
to your place early in the spring, as
soon as the bees can fly every day. 1t
is best to move them at night, or early
in the morning, before they begin to
fly. Don't close the hive too tight while
moving. Bees must have plenty of air
to breathe. Use wire screen to close
the hive for moving. When you get
them home place them where you wish
to have them permanently, set up
board against the front of the entrance
and when the bees come out they will
notice the hive and none will be lost.
1t is folly to purchase anything but
roaring strong colonies. 1t is a waste
of time to fuss around with weak col
onies. If you have any choice of hives
take the largest. as that is likely to give
you the most bees, brood and comb and
you will later see that a large comb
is preferable to a small one or to two
small ones. 1t is best not to move bees
in winter when cold, as they will break
the cluster, and often many die from
the shock and excitement, and some
times the whole colony will perish. The
bees should have good fight soon aft
er they are moved. The colonies should
be heavy, as that indicates a lot of
honey; we don't want to feed if it can
be avoided, as that might induce rob
bling.
