will only produce drones, or male bees
 of small size. Such fertile workers only appear in colonies that have lost their queen. Their presence can read fly be detected when the combs are ex- amined. There will be in worker cells from two to six eggs, and if they have been in existence for some time, sealed cells raised above those of the workers will appear detached from one another and not of continuous elevation as repu- lar drone cells are. When such condi- ton exists, fertile workers are pres ent, and the regular queen is absent. The main question then is to know how to get rid of these pests. They cannot be detected, for they are just like com- mon workers, un.ess you catch them in the act of laying their eggs There may only be one CT several When their existence is discovered it is useless to give them laying queen, as they will not accept her.
 The best way to get rid of them is to remove the stand to a new place in the apiary at a considerable distance. Place an empty hive where the colony former ly stood. then go to soEle strong hive and take out two frames containing eggs and sealed brood (be sure you have not the queen), with all adhering bees, and put them in the empty box. Then go to the hive containing the fer tile workers. take out each frame, shalf- ing or brushing every bee off. and place it in the new hive. Do this with every frame until you have your bcx full
 The worker bees will fly back to their old stand and the fertile workers will be left in the old box. The new col ony will soon begin to raise queens by constructing queen cells. If laying queens are on hand, one can be intro duced in the usual way.-William Bal lantine, in Farm Journal

FACTS ABOUT BEES.
\ Few Suggestions Which May Prove
 of Value to Many.

of Value to Many.
 While the bees take their winters nap, the apiarist should be awake and active If he can handle tools and has d shop to protect him from the inclem- encies of the weather, he can manufac- ture his own hives and have them in readiness for the busy season.
 Nothing can be done with bees in the winter. If they have been properly cared for in the fall, the best thing is simply to let them alone. In warm days when they are inclined to fly, the entrances should be opened up and cleared from dead bees. On such days those that are suspected to be getting short of supplies can be fed with. sugar candy.
 As the winter months are suitable for reading and storing the mind with knowledge, I will give here a sugges- tion that may be of advantage to many. It is in reference to what are called fer tile workers" This phrase describes bees that have gotten out of their proper sphere, like growing hens and whistIing maids. All worker bees are undeveloped females capable under certain conditions of laying eggs like a queen. Their eggs will hatch, but

Whole Grain for Fow,s

All kinds of poultry have very strong digestive organs, provided they have the gravel with which to fill their gig zards and have enough exercise to keep in vigorous health. They are positively injured by having the bulk Of their food ground. noistened or cooked so as to make it's digestion easier. Young chicks are most apt 10 be injured in this way. the popular idea being that as they are very small their gizzards cannot digest hard substances. We al- ways began feeding young chicks with cracked wheat. giving in addition some milk curd pressed hard. which is quite as difficult of digestion as the wheat. They will not eat much wheat at first. and it is best they should rot Little and often should be the rule with all young animals, chicks included.

SCIENCE IN FARMING.
The Thrifty Farmer of the Future
 Must Be n Student.

Must Be Student.
 The following is an editorial which appeared in the Chicago Record. It
 shows that the press of the country is
 awal1ing to the new forward and up-
 ward movement in agriculture:
 ''Secretary Wilson, of the department of agriculture, in his address at Tuske- gee, Ala. did well when he laid stress upon the increased opportunities which will open to the farmer when he takes the pains to devote himself more thoroughly to q scientific study of the
 ways and means of increasing his crops and making the most of his advantages.
 Two things have hampered the develop ment of the American farmer material
 ly-they are q failure to profit by the information gained by science as to economical production, and, second, the failure to study the agricultural mar
 ket.
 "In neither of these particulars has the farmer himself been to blame. He has done the best possible with the means at hand. Now, however, that the virgin fields in many states are losing some of their native fertility the need becomes more and more pressing for in- tclligent and systematic methods. As Secretary Wilson points out, great deal is to be gained simply from a study of soils and soil conditions. Certain lands may be made to yield rich profit in one product, while the samc lands would be i'll adapted to another. Scien- tifie Investigation is now determining what characteristics of soils make them better for one crop than for another.
 ''The day Of haphazard try-it-for-lucl1 farming has disappeared, and the sue cessful agriculturist of the future will be the man who studies his fields the most carefully and orders everything in accordance with the principle of econ omy-the maximum of result with the minimum of expenditure. The Ameri- can farmer no doubt has been years ahead of his European rival in adopting advanced methods, but he still has far to go. The man who makes a success of in the coming century will be he who devotes to his business the same method and judgment which business or professional men apply in developing their own best interests"
