Management of Fees.

In q late issue OF the American bee
Journal Edwin Bevins claims to have
discovered two alternative ways in
which laying worker colonies can be
disposed of so as to get all the service
out of the bees that they can render,
and vet keep the number of the colonies
up to what it was before. One way Is
to place the hive containing the laying
workers over a strong colony with
fertile queen, placing a newspaper
with a small hole in 1t between the two
hives. The bees will unite peaceably,
and when considerable worker brood
appears in the upper hive the hive can
be placed on another stand and the
bees will rear a queen from the brood,
II the old queen is left in the lower
hive; or q fertile queen can be intro
duced about three days after the re-
moval of the hive. The other plan in
wolves the taking of a couple Of frames
of Matching brood from a hive and
placing them in another hive over a
strong colony, with frame having
wire cloth nailed to both sides of 1t be-
tween the two hives. Then a fertile
queen and her escort are released on
the two combs. and in a few days there
will be a nucleus strong enough to take
care of the queen. This hive is then sci
down by the side of the hive holding
the laying workers. Every two or three
days a frame with it's bees must be
transferred from the laying-workel
hive to the nucleus. By the time al
but two of the frames are placed in the
new hive the queen is at work there
and everything is harmonious. As re
CARDS the two frames taken to form thu
nucleus, they can be returned to tn
places from which they were taken, o
these places can be filed by the frame
remaining unused in the laying worke
hive

Rolling Down stubb'e Land.

The bulk of snow the past winter al
most everywhere has been great
enough to break down last years grain
stubble, so that it will not be in the
way when moving the clover next
June. But there is still the necessity
of rolling the surface so as to press
down the loose stones, which are worse
than clover in moving fields. This
should be done while the ground is still
moist, so that the stones may be
pressed level with the surface. This
rolling has an excellent effect on young
clover, compacting the soil around the
roots and making it grow much better
1t should be done early before the
clover starts TO grow, as rolling clover
while 1t is growing brushes the leaves
and Injuries the whole after growth.

A Successful Enterprise That IL Based

A few remedies which have attained
to worldwide fame, as truly bene-
fetal in effect and giving satisfaction
to millions of people everywhere, are
the products OF the knowledge of the
most eminent physicians, and present.
ed in the form most acceptable to the
human system by the skill of the
worlds great chemists; and one Of the
most successful examples is the Syrup
of Figs manufactured by the California
Fig Syrup Co. Unlike a host Of imi-
tations and cheap substitutes, Syrup
of Figs is permanently beneficial in
its effects, and therefore lives and pIo-
notes good health. while inferior pre-
parations are being cast aside and for
gotten. In olden times il a remedy
gave temporary relief to individuals
here and there, it was thought good;
but nowadays laxative remedy must
give satisfaction to all. II you have
never used Syrup of Figs, give it
trial, and you will be pleased with 1t,
and will recommend it to your friends
or to any who suffer from constipa-
ton, or from overlooking, or from
colds, headaches, biliousness, or other
ills resulting from an inactive condi-
ton of the kidneys, liver and bowels.
In the process of manufacturing the
pleasant family laxative made by the
California Fig Syrup Co., and named
Syrup of Figs, figs are used, as they
are pleasant to the taste; but the
medicinal properties Of the remedy are
, obtained from an excellent combination
Of plants known to be incidentally laxa'
! tive and to act most benefcially. AS
the true and original remedy, named
Syrup OF Figs, is manufactured by thu
, California Fig Syrup Co. only. knowl

ing the worthless limitations manufac
E tured by other parties. The Compan,
r has selected for years past the leadinl

through which to inform the public o

1t Is more than two years since this
country had a full apple crop. A good
deal Of pure cider vinegar was made in
1896 from the. superabundant crop Of
that year, But the demand for vinegar
is SO great that there Is strong fempta-
ton to use mineral acids to secure the
sour taste which vinegar is expected to
have. Most States have laws against
using sulphuric or other mineral acids
to flavor vinegar. They should be rig
orously enforced. All such acids de-
stroy teeth and injure the digestive
organs. Vegetable seeds, when used
moderately, are not unhealthful. The
best of all for vinegar is the malIc acid
Of the apple, produced by fermenting
Its sugar and combining with 1t the
characteristic apple flavor. Healthful
vinegar can, however, be made from
maple sap or from any other sweet. 1t
does not have the body to 1t that cider
vinegar has. 1t may, however, be
made exceedingly sour by putting some
sugar with 1t. This will be changed
by the first fermentation into alcohol
Then If more yeast is added this will
be made an extremely strong vinegar
