PURCHASING BEES.
Some Really Valuable Hints for Now
ices in Agriculture.


This is one Of the puzzles to the be-
ginner, when TO buy. All things con-
sidered, think the spring the best time.
In the hands of the master it might pay
10 buy in the fall, as they can be bought
much cheaper then. But novice would
not know whether they were in proper
condition 10 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 iy pur
chasing in the spring, even though they
cost dollar per colony more, there is
no risk 10 run, for with a reasonable
season they viii pay for themselves and
there viii be something left.
l would advise buying as near home
as possible, to save express charges, as
it is very difficult 10 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 larger
prices for any particular strain you
may see advertised in the bee journals.
The honey gathered by the blacks and
| hybrids is just as sweet, and the quanti-
| ~ just as great as that gathered by the
high-toned or high-priced races, and no
bee Oh earth builds such delicate combs,
or caps its honey with such virgin white
ness as the poor. despised black bee.

INTERIOR ARRANGEMENT.

II VIII be observed that the peak
of the roof is south of the center of the
building, both sides Of the roof being Of
the same pitch. This causes the roof
of the north side to run higher than that
of the south side in the place where the
roofs meet, and so enables one to put in
glass below the one roof and above the
other, through which the sun viii

Where the door opens, an alley should
run through the center Of the building,
as shown in The second plan. Thus con-
structed, the central window is just
over the south side of the alley, in con-
sequence of which the sun viii shine

Of it, the opposite pens being lighted
sufficiently by the south window. From
the alley between the feed troughs,
doors, each two feet wide, should open
from the pens into the alley. These
have been omitted by our engraver.
Gates working with a lever should also
be suspended above the troughs, TO shut
the hogs away while putting in the
feed. Z, L, L, Z, are the pens for the
pigs, with trough (A) in each. B is a

Il is a noticeable fact that disease OF
all kinds, and cholera in particular, is
most prevalent where the greatest num-
Der of hogs are kept. The massiDg of
those animals together and crowding
them with so carbonaceous food as corn

preparations are taken 10 thwart II, it
is harvest which IS very liable TO be
gathered, and that successfully, too.
This is especially true where the pig

unsanitary. In such case disease
germs multiply fast, for disease loves
dark and dampness, which soon tend TO

EGYPTIAN ARCHITECTURE
DR.. Fletcher's Lecture Before the Rus.
kin Art Club

DR.. j. c. Fletcher's first lecture of the
Ruskin Art club course yesterday afternoon
was both interesting and instructive. The
subject was Egyptian Architecture" and
it was profusely illustrated with set of
fine stereopticon views. DIR. Fletcher be-
gan with a map of the Nile, illustrating the
annual overflow, following with views of
Pompeii's pillar, Cairo and the pyramids
and the temple of Thebes. 1t was in this
temple that the mummies of Rameses the
Great and thirty-two persons of the royal
family were discovered few years ago
Portraits from the mummy were shown,
the features in good condition, of this great
Egyptian ruler, whose daughter "found lit
tie Moses on the banks Of the Nile" and
who was the destroyer of Israel, 1850 b. C.
Several views of the temple were thrown
on the screen with it's towering obelisk to
the Princess Hatasu it's stately columns and
curious hieroglyphics. Karnak, with it's
majestic ruins, came next, with scenes from
Egyptian life and chairs of the pattern of
l546 B. c., that can be duplicated in any fur
niture store in 1898 in design An Egyptian
afternoon tea, dancing party, musical and
other bits of home life of that far away time
were shown. The second lecture will be
given Saturday afternoon at 2:3O
