He Had Flung Up.

The superior court was in session and
the little mountain town was crowded
with people. Along about the middle
of the day when the judge was worried
with a tedious trial, Bill Williams, OF
the Lick Creek settlement. began gal
Looping up and down the streets on his
little red mule, firing off his pistol,
whooping like Sioux, and otherwise
dispensing the energy which a liberal
supply of corn liquor had inspired.
"Mr. Bailiff," commanded the judge,
sternly, "go out and arrest that man
and bring him into court"
The bailiff went timidly out Of the
courtroom and the judge attempted to
proceed with business. But-Wiiiiams'
racket outside did not cease. 1t grew
worse and the judge looked over the
room for some one else to send out, and
observed the bailiff sitting complacent-
ly on one of the back seats.

mot arrest that disorderly man? Are
you not an officer of the court?"

WINTER BEE DISEASE.
How to Manage Colonies which May
BE Afflicted with 1t.


One of the causes of dysentery, as the
winter bee disease is usually termed, is
disturbing them in cold weather. In
fact, it is often the case that disturbing
them in very cold weather is the most
disastrous thing that could be done,
as it causes dysentery to appear among
the bees in its worst form. For this
reason no one should be allowed to go
among the hives in very cold weather
any more than is strictly necessary to
properly look after, them. Il. Nor should
stock be allowed to run among them
during the winter for fear of disturbing
them.
The disease may also appear when
the bees are closely confined for long
time, or when they are compelled to live
upon impure honey. Many good bee
keepers claim that honey from cider
mills, decayed fruit and honey dew is
not healthy food.
If the winter is an open one, so that
the bees can fly out often. they will live
on this kind of honey without injury.
But IL the weather is so cold and stormy
that the bees are kept closely confined,
the poor food tells, and dysentery is al
most certain to make its appearance
among them; and a colony badly afilict-
ed will often be hard to cure.
One of the best things that can be
done-in fact about the only thing that
will be of any benefits to give them
purifying fight. Let them have a
chance for flight the first bright warm
day that comes.
Feeding candy is, to some extent,
beneficial. But the best and safect
plan is to prevent. Give good winter
food, good sealed honey. That gathered
during the first of the season is always
best. Bees will bear confinement on
good honey and keep healthy much
longer than on bad. 1t is easier to pre-
vent the disease by supplying healthy
conditions than to cure after the dis
ease once makes its appearance.-St.
Louis Republic.

"A WORD OF ADVICE
To Those Coming to Alaska or the
klondtke Gold Fields.


One thing should be impressed upon
every miner. prospector or trader COM
ing to Alaska. to the klondike, OF the
Yukon country, and that is the neces-
sity for providing an adequate and
proper food supply. Whether procured
In the States, in the Dominion, or at
the supply stores here or further on,
this must be his primary concern.
Upon the manner in which the miner
has observed or neglected this precau-
ton more than upon any other one
thing will his success or failure depend.
These supplies must be healthful and
should be concentrated, but the most
careful attention in the selection of
foods that will keep unimpaired in
definitely under all the conditions
which they will have to encounter is
imperative. For instance, as bread
raised with baking powder must be re-
lied upon for the chief part of every
meal, imagine the helplessness of a
miner with a can of spoiled baking
powder. Buy only the very best flour;
it is the cheapest in the end. Expert
ence has shown the Royal Baking Pow
der to be the most reliable and the
trading companies now uniformly sup
ply this brand, as others will not keep
in this climate. BE sure that the bacon
is sweet, sound and thoroughly cured.
These are the absolute necessities upon
which all must place n chief reliance,
and can under no circumstances be
neglected. They may, of course, be
supplemented by as many comforts or
delicacies as the prospector may be able
to pack or desire to pay for.-Alaska

THE POULTRY INDUSTRY.
IL Gives Quick Returns I'm winter ~
Well as In Summer.

Let every farmer carefully estimate
the cost of the things he produces in the
form of labor. He need not put down
the sums he expends out of his pocket,
but simply endeavor to place value
upon the labor he himself bestows on
every department of the farm and for
each crop. IL he is business man."
that is, If he knows what he is doing by
keeping an account of his operations,
as every man who Is in business does,
or should do, he will have no difficulty
in classifying the receipts and expenses,
and especially the cost of labor. Next
let him estimate the space or number OF
acres of land he has given every one of
the crops, as well as the blowing, har-
rowing, seeding, cultivating, harvest
ing, hauling, shipping, ETC., and charge
interest on the capital invested. After
he has done this let him take up poul-
try, place a value upon the meat and
eggs, the cost of the food, and the labor
bestowed-the labor particularly-and
then compare the result from the poul-
try with those from the larger stock
and regular crops. He will find that IL
he had kept more hens, and given them
only one-fourth of the care and labor
bestowed on other sources of revenue
on the farm, he would have had n
larger balance in his favor. BY looking
over the statistics he will find that
poultry produces more than sheep, and
that our enormous wheat crop is not
much greater in value, annually, than
the products of fowls. With markets
always ready, and with cash returns
every month in the year for poultry and
eggs, the farmer uses the most profit
able sources of income as ''side bust
ness" and expends his energies over
large areas, being fortunate If he can
clear as much as $40 or $50 an acre n
year, while right under his eyes his
fowls, on few rods or acres, give him
quick returns both summer and win
ter, which he does not recognize as be-
longing to farming" but which source
of revenue he could utilize to the best
advantage II he would give poultry his
attention as a business.-Farm and

A PRETTY INCIDENT.
The Kindness of n spanish Lady to
Lone Soldier Boy.


Lone Soldier BOY. ...
A recent traveller in Spain describes
touching scene witnessed at the depar
ture of regiment for Cuba. All day
long there had been heard the meas
ured tread of soldiers marching through
the street; all day long gayly bedecked
boats had been passing to and from the
vessel that was to take them to Havana.
The twilight began to deepen when the
correspondent saw a startling and
pretty sight"-the impetuous action of
portly, good-looking and well-dressed
lady, who noticed a young soldier walk
ing dejectedly along down the pier in
his travelling gray, with knapsack
strapped over his shoulders. All the
rest of the men had friends, their
novias, mothers, relatives, and made
the usual gallant effort to look elated
and full of hope. This lad had no one,
and it might be OWNED that he was car
rying n desolate heart over the seas.
The handsome woman burst from her
group of friends, took the boys hand,
and said: my son has already gone to
Cuba. He is in the regiment of Andalu-
STA, and sailed tive months ago. You
may meet him, Pope g.; take this kiss
to him." She leaned and kissed his
cheek"
An English boy would have shown
awkwarness, but these graceful
southerners are never at a loss for
pretty gesture and prettier word
The boy blushed with pleasure, and still
holding the lady's hand, said with quite
natural gallantry, without smirk or
silly smile: And may not take one
for myself as well, senora?" The lady
Redeemed, laughed little nervonsly.
and bent and kissed him again to the
frantic applause of soldiers and civil
ians, while the boy walked on. braced

AMONG THE POULTRY.

Keep the chickens and their quarters
clean.
Having high perches often causes
humble foot.
Supply raw bone, either crushed or
IN the form of meal.
With laying hens wheat may be the
principal grain food.
So far as is possible the food should
be varied every few days.
Push the Matching. The early Matched
pullets make the best winter layers.
Tobacco stems or leaves placed in the
nests will aid in keeping them free
from vermin.
Observe which hens are the best lay
ers and breed from them. Such traits
are hereditary.
With large breeds one cock to every IL
hens is sufficient; with small breeds
one to every IS hens.
Give the fowls all the range and ex-
ercise that the weather will permit from
this time on until spring.
When eggs from distance are re-
ceiyed for Matching, let them remain
"a hours before putting them under the
hen.
Fowls that are closely confined and
are fed largely on highly concentrated
food, are often affected with cramp of
the legs.
In selecting breeding turkeys, as a
rule, broad -backed, full breasted and
large-boned fowls will give the best re-
sults.--St. Louis Republic.

Prevention Of swarm..

his hives were too small to prevent
swarming by means of perforated dunn
mics, and expects next year to use
hives a third larger. In four cases he
secured the return of the swarm, queen
and all, by vigorously smoking at the
entrance as soon rs the swarm began
to issue. He thinks the swarm returned
because they could not scent the queen.
