NEGLECTED INDUSTRY.
The Honey Business Is Not Receiving
the Attention in the West
Which 1t Should.

It is matter of congratulation that
so many of the side industries possible
to the farm have been brought into
prominence within few years through
the farm press and the farmers insti
tute, but there is something still lack
ing. The honey business: is rarely men
toned at farmers institute, and many
of the farm papers do not mention it
except in the most casual manner.
Illinois has many honey plants which
would be a source of considerable rev.
enue if the honey could be secured, but
because of lack of bees thousands of
dollars worth of nectar wastes every
year. All over the state white clover
grows and fourishes during the sum-
mer, and in most of the state heartsease
and Spanish needle are found in waste
places, while golden rod might almost
be named as the flower of the state.
Besides these is sweet clover, which is
a troublesome weed in most places. and
many dislike the honey that comes from
it.
Intelligent farmers recognize the
value of bees in the polarization of
fruit flowers, and they no doubt &C
complish much good in the same way
with other crops. There is room for
bees on every farm in the state, and if
every farmer produced only honey
enough for his own family, the saving
in the item of sweets for family use
would be larger than most men imag-
ine-Farmers' Voice.

PROTECT THE BIRDS.
important Facts Compiled by Will
linn butcher, of the Amerl.
can OrnitholoEists' Union.


: According to the census of 1890 there
were in the United States the enor-
NOUS number of 1864 GAL farms, with
total acreage of 623,21S,619. The val
uation of these farm lands is placed at
the sum of $13,279. 252. $40. The labor
of the farmer and fruit grower is re-
paid by products to the value of So, 460.-
1G7,454 per year, but it is said that
insects and rodents destroy products
annually to the astonishing money
value of $2OO,O0O.0 900, even with the
birds as protectors. just imagine what
the additional loss would be were all
the birds destroyed. They. are fast
being exterminated. and unless that
large class of the population, the agri-
culturists, awaken to the gravity of
the situation and absolutely demand
that no more birds be killed for any
purpose whatever. they will soon feel
the shortsightedness in actual dollars
and cents. A difference of one per
cent. in the value of:the farm products
amounts to the enormous sum of $24,-
Col, O74. The Birds are now killed for
two purposes only; for food and mill
linery ornaments. For food. only q
very few are shot, i. e., the game birds,
and these only during restricted por.
tions of the year, so they do not ma
terially affect the result. There is no
excuse for shooting the second class
of birds, as their value as millinery
ornaments is far less than their value
as insect destroyers. Besides this,
contrast the difference in the money
value of the two interests that are
opposed to each other. By the census
of 1890 we find that the total capital
invested in the millinery and lace trade
is $22, 939 ,430, and the cost of the ma
tefial used that year was $27,345, 115.
Place the two interests side by side,
$4,000, 900, 00Oag ainst $23 100000. Again,
an annual product of $2,212. 100000
as against $4,000, 900. I ask, and I
wish 1 could shout my question in
voice so loud and clear that every man,
woman and child in this broad land of
ours could hear it: Have the milliners,
with their paltry interests, any right
to jeopardize the safety of the agri-
cultural interests? Ponder! A differ
ence of only one percentum in the an
nual product of our farms and gar
dens amounts to more than the entire
millinery and lace interests of the
United States. Will the farmers and
fruit growers remain silent much long
er and permit the birds, their best
friends, to be killed that trifiing inter-
est like the millinery trade may make
few more dollars at the sacrifice of
so much that is beautiful, as well as
of economic value?

way that the end outside the box
Is slightly heavier. Put the bait ~

1T does not take much to induce a rabbit

animal crawls along until past the mid
Me, when its weight overbalances the
box, which tips up suddenly, and the
bnimal slides out into the larger box.
..1he pivoted box then falls back to its
original position and is ready for an
,ther rabbit. The trap is easily con-
jtructed, simple and has the advan-
tage of being always set. There can be
two entrances as shown in the illustra-
ton. The top and sides of the box
exposed above ground can be covered
with leaves, snow or anything to dis
guise it. The trap door (a) is for re-
moving the captured rabbits.-Orange

About color and preea,.

Many readers who take an interest in
the breeds are at. a loss to understand
the advantages possessed by birds of
the same breed, but which are different
in color. For instance, there are the
white, buff. black. brown, dominique
and STRENGTHENING Leghorns, but they
differ only in color, being equal in lay
ing qualities. The same may be stated
of the single-comb and rose comb va
rieties. There is a difference, however
in hardness. The varieties that are
rare, such as the black dominique and
silver-duckwipg Leghorns, are more in
bred, as new blood is~not easily OBJ
tained. but the bluffs. whites and
browns, though harder than the 9th
ers. are about equal in merit otherwise.
Color has but little, if any. influence in
determining quality.-Farm and Fire

and without the ack-breaking effect.
In any event, whether a saw is to be
used by one or two men. it is an advan-
tage to have one end of itfurnishedwith
n two-handed handle. Some small cross
cuts are made with such handle at one
end Gig. ~, but if not. the ordinary
handle can be removed from any broad
bladed saw and homemade handle in
serted Zig. y. In use, the sawyer
will of course hold the main stem with
his left hand. while with his right he
will grasp the lower and forked part
of the handle. He will be surprised at

Have You ried Swamp=Root?
To Prove for Yourself the Wonderful nerits of This
Great Discovery Every Reader of This Paper
May Have Sample Bottle Sent
Absolutely Free by Tail.

Statistics prove that more people are
brought to the grave by diseases of the
kidneys and bladder than by any other
disease.
Kidney trouble is in itself so insidious
and deceptive that thousands have
some form of it and never suspect it.
For many years medical science has
been trying to discover some remedy
that would positively overcome these
dangerous troubles.
But not until recently was the discov-
cry made. DR.. Kilmer, the eminent
physician and scientist, after years of
study and research, and after test on
test that never varied in the grand re-
suit, announced the discovery of
Swamp-Root, which has proven itself
most wonderful cure for all diseases of
the kidneys and bladder.
While Swamp-Root has proven such a
remarkable success in curing kidney
and bladder diseases, it has also proved
equally invaluable in the cure of blood
diseases, rheumatism, liver and stom-
ach troubles, and in the regulation and
cure of all uric acid troubles.
If your water, when allowed to remain
undisturbed in a glass or bottle for
twenty-four hours. forms a sediment or
settling, or has a cloudy appearance, it
is evidence that your kidneys and blad-
der need immediate attention.
Swamp-Root has been tested in so
many ways, in hospital work, in private
practice, among the helpless too poor to
purchase relief, and has proved so sue
cessful in every case, that special ar
rangement has been made by which all
readers of this paper, who have not al
ready tried it, may have sample bot
