THE CURFEw IN PRACTICE.

10 keep out of the streets the children
who have been permitted TO frequent
them in the evening without restrain,
heretofore. 1t takes effect at O'Clock
p. m. in the summer and at o'clock
p. m. during the winter. The effect OF
the rule has been watched with interest
and no one can doubt jhat the new
rule viii be as faithfully enforced here
after as il has been during Che Grs.

reasonable manner. According - al.
the testimony At hand the ordinance is
al excellent thing in that Il accom-
plishes the purpose for which Z. was
passed. Children. and young girls in
particular. are no longer seen pVumsu-
aiding the streets in groups or sing!y
and the gain for order is plainly no.
tiCeable.
There is a disposition shown in the
press OF other cities To poke fun at
the course pursued here in this matter.

Care Of nees in winter.


Bees should remain undlsturbed
throughout the entire winter, except
that we may IN safety open the hives
and examine them during a warm day
whom the bees are out on the wing
flying, but even on such occasions the
weather must of necessity be very
warm and fine. writes A. II. Dun In
Journal OF Agriculture. Bees are very
easily injured by being aroused in any
way during cold weather, and on this
account they should DO provided with
good protection so as to exclude stock
of any kind from wandering near the
hives. For this reason. hives should
not be set up on high benches. nor
placed against fences or trees. The
proper place to locate hives OF bees
the hives having hoards-is directly
on the ground, and each sitting on its
own bottom and not in any way con-
nected with any other hive.
Snow about the bee hives is good
protection to the bees in very cold
weather, and the more snow the bettor

mistake by removing the snow. think
ing the bees will suffocate for air.
They thus do the bees an almost irrep-
arabic injury; not only depriving
them OF good protection, but disturb
Ing them and arousing them TO activ-
ity at time they should be the most
quiet. Bee hives may be totally COW
cred with deep snow drifts without do
ing the least injury to the bees, but
on the contrary II affords them the
best OF protection during the most Sc
we're weather.
Persons who are not well informed
In bee culture frequently make a mis-
take by moving bees during the winter
from one locality to another. They
may perhaps purchase bees of their
neighbor during the summer and defer
moving them until winter The prop
er time to move or ship bees Is at any
time during the year except In winter.
for the cause given above. The ques-
tlon may be asked, why thus disturb
Ing bees during winter is injurious to
them. 1t is so from the fact that
when bees are aroused to activity In
cold weather they will partake of food
heavily on account OF II. and II the
weather is such as to keep them con-
fined any length thereafter. they will
become affected with dysentery from
confinement in this condition, and
only a timely flight will relieve them.
Bees may thus be made to consume
more ,nan double the amount OF stores
they would otherwise do with proper
treatment in this respect.

Few growers OF berries are aware OF
the Importance OF using only select
plants to obtain the best results in
raising fine quality and large guam
tlty of fine fruit, writes II. Gugal In
Colmans Rural World. l think there
are few growers OF berries but what
will admit that the best markets are
easily glutted with Inferior fruit while
there never yet was market over
supplied with choice fruit. In order
to avoid overlooking or Cutting the
markets. during the berry season. we
must conflne ourselves to smaller acre
age. and better quality of fruit, espe-
cially when II can be done at very
little extra cost.
One acre we'll prepared and well
planted with select plants, and well
cultivated during the growing season,
will produce as much fruit and OF finer
quality, as four or Ave acres in the old
way OF full-matted rows and alley
plants. Then, when 1t comes to pick
ing, they can be found without using
spectacles-every berry will be ber-
ry, and no make believes. In order
to grow fine berries, liberal appllca-
ton of fertilizer is necessary to pro-
duce the best results, as fertilizer-es-
pecially barn-yard manure-improves
both quality and quantity. In order to
grow fine berries IL Is necessary to be-
gin the preparation OF the soil the year
before. pillow under a good clover
sod, upon which has been broadcasted
barnyard manure at the rate of at least
twenty-five loads to the acre. Pulver-
lie well and plant to potatoes, cult
vate thoroughly, and allow no weeds
to ripen seed. Then, when the pota-
toes are dry, SOW to rye, II possible.

The land should then be in a fine

The Colorado Experiment Station
publishes the following formula for the
making Of sheep dips;
Australian Dip Sulphur, $50
pounds; lime, 100 pounds, to 100 gal
Ions of water. The lime and sulphur
were mixed with a small amount Of
water first and heated until all became
a bright red liquid and then diluted to
100 gallons.
Copperas Dip - Copperas, thirty
pounds; water, 100 gallons.
Flour of Sulphur-The dry powder
used pure.
Flour of Sulphur in Water-Used In
the proportion of ten pounds of sui
phur to 100 gallons OF water.
Curtice Dip-Tobacco leaves, fifty
pounds; sulphur. ten pounds. to 100
gallons of water. The tobacco was
first thoroughly STEPPED, after which
the leaves were removed and the sui
phur put in the decoction and boiled
for half hour.
Milk OF Lime-Lump lime. 1850
pounds; water. 100 gallons. Lime slak-
ed in the water and used at once.
Tobacco Decoctlon-Tobacco dust,
200 pounds: water. 100 gallons. The
tobacco was stepped In the water and
then the leaves squeezed and the
strony decoction used la full and one
half, one-fourth and one-elghth full

Arsenic OF Soda Dip-White arsenic
one ounce; carbonate OF soda, one
ounce; water, one gallon. The arsenic
and carbonate Of soda were first put In
a small amount of water together, and
boiled until the arsenic became entire
ly dissolved. and then the remainder
of the water was added. Also used In
weaker solutions.
Carbollc Acid and Corrosive Subli-
mate-Carbolic acid. eight parts; cor
rosive subllmate, one part: water, Zoo

sn,nhin salts I'm Alknli Soils.


The electrical method OF salt deter
ulnatlon in soils has been used in the
exploration and investigation OF the
alkali soils OF the Yellowstone Valley
made by the department OF agricul-
ture. An examination was first made
of he general conditions in the valley
and then a very minute study OF sec
ton of land which was just being
ruined by the rise Of alkali. This ex-
animation amounted to an under
ground survey OF the field, and maps
have been made showing the distribu-
ton OF alkall at different depths. A
great number OF borings were made to
q depth Of 10 or Is feet, and salt de-
examinations were made In every D
Inches or each foot in depth. Accurate
maps have been made showing the
at several Of these depths. 1t was
found that in the original prairie soil
above the ditch there Is not sufficient
alkali to be injurious to vegetation.
The amount OF alkall was greater In
the lower depths OF the subsoll. AS
a rule, water Is used in excess on all
OF these lands under irrigation, and
to such an extent that II accumulates
In the subsoll. When the depth to
standing water is not more than 2
feet from the surface, alfalfa turns
yellow and dies out In all cases the
first injury was from the accumulation
OF water from excessive applications
through irrigation. Where this water
remains for some time in the subsoil
the alkall teaches down through seep-
age from higher lands. and is brought
up from the subsoil and acoumulates
at the surface in quantities sufficient
to prevent the growth OF cultivated
plants. This underground survey OF
the alkali lands has given the most
important information in regard to
amount and distribution Of the soluble
salts and the way in which they ac-
cumulate in certain localities through
overirrigation.

we imagine a world better fitted for
those ends than this world? How long

that his illustrious visitor must be

able attention bestowed attracted the
curiosity OF all present. Suddenly II
occurred to his royal highness that his
distinguished guest must be tho son
OF certain Mr.. Moore. a man OF high
birth and great fortune. Thus pressed,
the poet put an end to persistent in

Soil Aeration.-By this term ws
mean the entrance Of air into the soil,
and its consequent effect This is close
ly connected with the BENEFITS accru-
ing from an increase OF depth. In
many OF our subsoils there is a guam
tity OF inert plant food which is OF no
use unless 1t has been decomposed by
the action of the air. When the air
is admitted to the soil gradually from
the surface and also from the drains
direct, the oxygen of the air, in con-
nection with moisture and heat, cause
a chemical change to take place in all
vegetable matter not well decomposed
and fitted for plant food, and renders
the soil richer as well as deep.--C. @.
