Distance Bees Go to Forage.

The distance bees go to forage is one
Of the difficult questions to settle, and
authorities differ in regard to the mat
ter The editor of The Bee Keepers Re-
view says: "Forty acres of buckwheat
were once sowed early in the season
three miles from my little apiary. The
owner intended to pillow it under to en-
rich the soil, but finally changed his
mind and allowed it to ripen. 1t bloomed
two or three weeks before any other
buckwheat, and my bees worked upon
it and secured little more than enough
for their immediate needs, but when
the buckwheat bloomed near home the
combs filled up with rush.
Commenting on the foregoing the
Iowa Homestead says: "This may be
good evidence, but not necessarily 80,
for it is possible that the time when the
bees were working on the distant buck
wheat they would have accomplished
no more if they had been only 40 rods
away. 1t is we'll known that buckwheat
as we'll as other plants does not yield
honey to any extent sometimes, and
plants have more or less their proper
time for blooming, so it is not at all GER
tain that blossoms two weeks ahead of
the season would yield nectar after the
usual manner.

CONCERNING GRATING.
Advantages of Top Working-When and
How to Do It Successfully.

Advantages of Top Working-When and
How to Do It Successfully.
In speaking of grating at this season
reference is made not to the grating Of
seedlings in the nursery, but to the
stop working" of trees of considerable
size, which is in order in the spring.
On this subject the Ohio Farmer says:
Top working on growing trees is not a
difficult operation and may be made to
bring good results in many cases. Many
varieties too tender to be grown in To-
cality can be made do we'll when grated
on harder sorts, and some that for va
rious reasons are found unsatisfactory
when other methods are pursued with
them do well when grated on other va
rieties. The Wild Goose plum, for ex-
ample, does not give general satisfac-
tion, but if top worked on the Wolfe
or De Soto can be relied on for
good crops. Many valuable combina-
tions can also be made with the ap-
pie, and for the home orchard kinds
that are valued, but lack hardness, can
be secured in this way. 1t is best to cut
the scions for grating in December, but
they may be cut during the winter at
| any time after few days of mild, open
weather. If cut when the temperature
is low, the bark is pretty sure to shrivel.
Plum and cherry trees can best be
| grated late in March, before the sap
starts, and the wounds should be COW
cred with grating wax. Apple trees
may be top worked in April just as the
buds are swelling. If it is preferred to
bud instead of graft, this may be done as
late as the last week in May. Cherries
and plums are usually propagated this
way, though cherry seedlings cannot
be budded until August or Septem Der.
| The essential feature of successful
grating is that the inner bark and cam
blum layer of the scion and stock shall
coincide for as much space as possible
and that the air shall be excluded by
the application of rafting wax SO that
it will not dry out. Cleft grating con
sists of splitting the stock and holding
the cleft open with wedges, inserting the
scion after shaping it smoothly to 9
wedge shape, taking care to bring the
inner bark of the scion and the stock
together. In whip grating the scior
and stock are both shaved off diagonal
ly and brought together in that way.
A little practice on branches of gree,
wood of almost any kind will soon Ell
able the learner to make the cuts Sc
that they will come together smoothly
and bring the inner bark of both to
gether. A common formula for graftins
wax is three parts rosin, three part
beeswax and two parts beef tallov
melted together. A cheaper, harder ant
better composition is four parts rosin
one part beeswax and one part inseet
oil.

Quantity Of Lime to Apply.

Professor Watson of Pennsylvania ex-
pertinent station says: The quantity of
lime that it is safe to drill with the
cereal crops cannot BIZ definitely stated.
This quantity, of course, would vary
quite largely, as the character of the
soil, amount Of moisture present. ETC.. +,
varied. Air Stacked lime may be drilled
with the grain as fertilizers are drilled
with safety if applied in moderate
amounts. In the middle and New Eng
land states, where land plaster can be
obtained cheaply, many farmers have
practioed drilling land plaster and lime
in about equal amounts with fairly sat-
isfactory results. In applying lime it
should not be forgotten that the sole OBJ
ject is to help lie plant obtain food
from the soil that could not be obtained
without the lime. In parts of the coun-
try where comparatively little lime is
used there seems to be a prevailing
opinion that it is plant food, or, in
other words, that lime does furnish
some of the necessary elements that the
plant needs III building up it's structure.
While this may be true in exceptional
cases, yet nearly all the lime applied to
the soil is applied to help the plant rob
the soil of plant food. The continued
application of lime without applying
plant food will surely impoverish the
soil. 1t may be applied with the grain
drill, as stated, but the practice should
not be continued without applying fer
filters. National Stockman.

Frances e. Willard.

It is doubtful whether the death of
any woman, save possibly Victoria,
queen of England, could have produced
SO widespread and SO profound a sorrow
as the death of Miss Frances E. Willard.
The Outlook has differed radically with
her on two important points-we do not
believe in prohibition by the state, and
she has been it's most eloquent advocate;
we do not believe in woman suffrage,
and she has done more to overcome wo-
mans instructive aversion to the ballot
than any other representative of that
cause. But these differences of judg-
ment disappear before the purity of her
character, the self sacrificing devotion
of her life and splendor OF her achieve
