Poultry Notes.

Where are the young chicks roost-
ing? Get them up off the ground and
out of danger of colds, skunks, minks
aud other yermin.
Red raspberries do we'll in the
chicken yard, give shade when most
needed, and the fruit is mostly ont of
reach of the fowls.
Keep posted in the poultry profess
sion. Read all you can find to read
about poultry, and especially along
lines of your operations.
If you have heavy breed don't
change them for lighter breed be-
cause you will get more eggs, for the
difference is made up other ways.
In the laying hen the food is tine
most important point to watch. 1t is
not always the feed nor the breed that
makes laying hen valuable. The
thing to do is to keep her from get.
ting too fat.
There is no danger of taking too
good care of a flock of hens. The
man who keeps them we'll fed and in
clean quarters rarely finds fault about
the number of eggs he gets, no matter
what breed he keeps.
A good Watering fountain is worth
while. If we'll constructed it will
last for years. Have one made Of
copper holding eight or ten gallons,
closed at the top and with Il cup
soldered on Mt the bottom, connected
with the interior by y small hole. The
tank is filled by dipping into water
ing trough.

/ am asked whether I think the
eight.fram hive is large enough to
accommodate the breeding capacity Of
the average good queen. Emphatic
ally will say no. Neither do / think
that the bee.keeper who makes any
tests at all, 10 matter who he is or
where he is, would answer the ques-
ton in any other way. My expert
ence is that about one-third of the
queens are crowded i'll a tenframe
brood chamber, and that not over one
tenth of the colonies can be sufficient,
" accommodated with breeding room
iii an eight-frame hive; while perhaps
only two or three per cent of the
healthy queens would find this hive
too large.
Perhaps many people will disagree
with me, who have never used any
thing larger than m eight.irame hive,
because they Judge of the possible
strength of colony ny the experience
that one may get with such hive. /
beg leave to say that it is next to i'm
possible to Judge fairly OF this ques,
ton without first giving a trial to
large brood chambers the year round.
1t is useless to expect RS populous 4
colony Tor either spring, summer or
winter, on au average, III small hive,
or in large one. A greater cluster,
a larger space, and greater amount
of stores are bound to produce, with
{ IEf
/ colony.
! There is one item which We have
not considered. | have often heard
. il said that the size of the hive was Il
question of locality, Whether there
, is Il point in this remains to be tested.
1t is quite possible that, i'll countries
where the winter changes suddenly,
and in very few days to summer, the
proiicness OF queens may have but
/ little chance Of becoming fully deyel-
+ oOed Ii such were the case II would
. indicate that northern countries could
better adopt small hives than south
q, ern attitudes But in my mind this
is dcbAtabIe. a strong, large colony,
wintercd in cellar, ever so far north,
if safely wintered, ought to be able to
develop the prolitieuess of its queen
within very short time; and as 1t
takes only twenty-five days for the
worker bee to hatch, space Of two or
three months would be much more
than ample to repopulate hive to its
utmost. Are there very many locali-
ties where the height of the honey
flow does not last beyond sixty to
ninety day after the opening of spring?

Spain and America.

The United States present a strik-
ing example of free, independent
and enlightened people. This coun-
try is not dependent upon those who
may happen to be in office. On the
contrary, it advances in spite of weak
or corrupt officials. Some Of the most
prosperous periods of our country
came when we had the weakest rulers.
With the United States, it is the
people, not the Government; with
Spain, it is the Government, not the
people. If Spain has progressive
rulers, the country is progressive; if
they are weak, or corrupt-and they
are generally both-the country de
clines. Such dependent people are
unworthy of liberty. The Arena.
