FOR THE FARMER,


Notes for Beekeeper~.
Do not breed drones in the same
colony selected for queens.
Adjusting boards should be used
in hives of all weak stocks.
Dampness in hives in Winter is II
most damaging thing to bees
Unsealed brood should always
occupy the center of the brood nest.
Hives covered with snow are in
the best possible Winter quarters.
Colonies having defective queens
are always the foundation of trouble.
Bees nurtured indoors should be
allowed to remain as quiet as posi-
BILE.
The less increase we allow the
larger will be the honey crop next
season.
Colonies selected for breeding
should contain a good supply of
drone comb.
The supply of drones depends en-
tirely on the amount of drone comb
furnished
Little wooden troughs, holding
about pint of sirop are good for
feeding bees.
Every colony to be divided should
be strong and the hive crowded with
bees and brood
Do not feed in the morning, as it
tends to cause robbing and to make
the bees restless.
Colonies selected for breeders
should be pushed by early feeding
to their utmost limit.
Bees are not apt to attach comb
to cloth, so cloth divisions between
frames serve as a guide.
1t is just as necessary to select
for the production of drones as for
the production of queens.
Be sure that the entrances to the
hives are kept open, The bees want
good, fresh air to breathe.
Pollen is always stored in or near
the brood nest, and here is the
place where the bees will cluster.
Queen cells should never be re-
tanned in any colony except one
that is in natural, healthy con-
dition.
If any of the colonies are short of
stores, give them candy; it can be
laid on top of the frames above the
cluster.
Confine each colony to only as
many combs as the bees can con-
veniently cover, giving more combs
as needed.
Now is good time to make up a
surplus of hives, so as to have them
ready for use at any time they may
he needed.
If worms make their appearance
among the combs they can be de-
stroyed by subjecting them to the
fumes of sulphur.
Empty combs are valuable and
should receive the best of care; if
this is given, they can be made to
last several years.
The successful production OF comb
honey depends upon care in every
detail one essential is to have the
bees in prime condition.
Separators are barriers to comb
building, especially if the weather
is little cool, as they divide the
cluster of bees into small groups.
Look to the Breed.

Rarely has this country been served
by any representative whose course gave
such perfect satisfaction TO the whole ma
zion as General Lee has given in cuba.
Virginia Is proud Of him, and feels that
his course in Cuba Is going FAR 20 raise
her in the esteem Of the world TO that
place which her great men secured for

scured in recent years.
A few days back We quoted and COM
monted on the resolutions Of the Virginia
Legislature in regard TO General Lees
course as tho representative OF the United
states in Cuba. Since then our attention
has been called to similar resolutions
adopted by the Legislature Of Mississippi
upon the same subject. Representative
sharkey Of Kinds county, offered the
resolutions in the House and they were
unanimously adopted by rising vote.
They were as follows

We believe these resolutions reflect the
sentiment Of the entire United States
upon this subject. We believe General
Lees course IN cuba has oblitorated the
last vestigo Of sectional prejudice and
that tho last smouldcring ombers OF war
hate have been smothercd by his no5lc
and brilliant services as q representative
of the United States. He has not only
done the country prc-ominent service as a

unite in a movement against the con
spiracy for gold and monopoly"
But in one breath Chairman Butler in
vites the Chicago Democrats TO union
and in the next breath accuses one OF
the most distinguished and incorruptible
leaders Of the party Of being the hireling
and tool OF monopoly"
lie speaks Of Daniel as being by pro
fession a silver Democrat-a Chicago plat
form Democrat il that was Senator
Daniels occupation IN life from the pur-
sult Of which he made his living. We
know there are many professional pol
iucians, who exc out a precarious exist
enco by the business or politics, and this
idea was possibly uppermost in Popuiist
Buffers mind. But the language and the
idea are inapplicable to Senator Daniel
who is a lawyer by profession, and it was
perfectly legitimate for him TO undertake
a case for the Bell Telephone Company
or for any other corporation that might
need his services. 1t is absurd to say
that Senator Daniel, by reason Of such
a service. would be Influenced in any vote
that he may have to cast as senator I'm
Congress.
This attack on Senator Daniel recalls
the fact that when John G. Carlisle
went out Of office, ana was employed by
q railroad company. a great cry went up
from The silver press that this man was
sun serving those who for years past
had owned him. Never a more un-
righteous charge against an honest man.
Now comes practically the same charge
from a Populist against the idol Of the
free silver Democracy.
TWO things are noticeable.
Some people have become so daft on
the subject of corporations and monopoly
that they are utterly incapable Of pass
ing upon such questions with any degree
of justice or reason.
When Democrats undertake TO confer
with Populists. they must abandon ther
own principles and do as Populists DO
else there will be continuous pickering
and disagreement. and mud hinging.
Misery makes strange bed-fellows'
and this is case in which Senator
Daniel is getting up with feas." 1t
the Democratic party was purged Of all
such unnatural associations there could
be no point in Buffers malicious attack
on Senator Daniel.

\ POPULIsT ATTACKS SENATOR

Chicago Democracy and the other the
Populists They are both outspoken and
express themselves aggressiyely from
the respective standpoints. We make a
selection to-day from the Caucasian

Populstic attack on no less person
than Senator Daniel. See what II says:

The New York World Of yesterday
prints the following signed special from
Havana. It is from Arthur L. Horton.
We quote:
Spain will 90 10 war rather than sell
cuba or part with the island on any olher
terms.
Twenty years experience In Spanish
politics. together with what | have heard
lately from statesmen Of al parties IN
Guiding men now In Office, enables me 70
make that declaration.
The very thought OF selling Cuna IS
ridiculed and secuted by an classes IN
fact. Spaniards dismissed sucn a sussta-
ton with the query:
What party or government "oulu oare
10 discuss the sale or the independence OF
Cuba without mourning risk OF certain
revolution?'
There would be a popular uprising IN
which all parties and the army and navy
as well would join 10 man.
Therein lies the great danger as we
view the Cuban situation. Spain has
gotten to that point where it cannot re-
lease its hold upon Cuba without causing
serious trouble at home, and war with
the United states may be the simplest
way out Of her difficulties. Such a war
would put a quietus upon the revolution
ary spirit at home. and would furnish
spain with an excellent excuse for aban-
doning Cuba.

from the local trains were only sc per
train mile. The company has been aole
TO stand this loss because Of It's through
business. and so the people OF North
Carolina have profted by railroad consoi-
idatlon. which the Governor ana other
officials OF the State have so vigorously
denounced
Mr.. Spencer showed further that the
loss to the company resulting from re-
duction TO IL C. per mile would IN the
aggregate be nearly one half of the entire
net profit OF the entire system during the
year 1897.
This statement was prepared ana SUD
mitted to the Railroad Commission some
time ago. but in spite OF the facts there
in set forth. the Railroad Commission
has reduced passenger rates to 2 lie Tor
first class and q. for second class fares.
II Is no surprise. therefore, that the
southern Railway Company is not dis
posed to enlarge the scope Of its business
IN North Carolina. and that il Is no longer
in the market as bidder for the line
which the State wishes TO lease.

TWO OBSERVATIONS ABOUT RE
VISION.

I'm the conference held 10y Democratic
members of the Legislature night before
last, TO consider the ACCESSIBILITY Of calling
a constitutional convention. We note these
two observations. Let us 80 back to
our people" said a member, land tell
them that We have done our best in tho
way Of retrenchment. but that we were
tied down by this miserable Constitution,
and our efforts, therefore, were almost
futile"
The other was from a senator who
said. i'm speaking of the proposed con-
stiutonal amendment, that "the Anglo
saxons of Virginia would not submit to
being dictated TO by a few who should
submit Constitution"
In regard to the first observation. We
think the Journal Of the House and Sem
ate will show that many proposed re-
ductions were choked off in this branch
or that, If there had been unity of action
the Constitution would not have stood in
the way Of these reductions. And again,
If the Constitution was in the way Of
reductions, it was a simple matter for
these reformers to have prepared such
amendments to the Constitution as would,
when adopted, remove the obstruction to
reform.
As to the second. we observe that the
proposed Constitutional Commission
would not take any authority out Of the
hands OF the people. Their work would
simply be in the nature Of recommends
tons which the people themselves would
pass upon at the polls.
But how would It be with constitutional
convention? A few men would rub out
the organic law of this state and write
Il anew. and the people would never
have any say whatever in the matter un-
less the convention, of its own accord,
should agree to submit the new Consutu-
ton TO a vote of the people; and that
as we understand it, is just what the
advocates OF a constitutional convention
do not propose to do. Talk about dicta-
ton. II there ever was an autocratic body
under the sun, that body is a consutu-
tional convention.
