When a farm must be abandon
ed it is an evidence that the owner
has taken everything possible from
the soil and added nothing in re-
turn. There are hundreds of farms
in New England that we're once
abandoned" but which are now
proving profitable since new owners
took possession. Every farm can
be made better, or at least it can be
put in condition to produce crops,
and at the same time improve in
fertility.

Transferring Bees.

There are still many bees in old
fashioned box hives that are of little
value. If transferred to modern
hive they would become source OF
profit and would be under easy con-
troll. Transferring them is very
simple thing when the method is
understood. This is the season to
do it. c. H. Barbour, in american
Agriculturist, says: Select any
modern frame hive and place near
the old hive a common table.
Next raise the old hive and smoke
the bees little. Move the old hive
few feet from where it stood,
placing the new hive in its place
with sheet in front of it. Now pry
off one side of the old hive, care
fully remove the comb, brushing
the bees on to the sheet. Then lay
the comb on a soft cloth on the
table, and placing the frame over it
cut the comb so it will fit inside
the frame, cutting out all drone
comb and filling in pieces of work
er crmb, until the frame is filed.
Now place thin pieces of wood on
each side of the frame, or wind the
same with string and set the frame
in the new hive. Repeat this un-
til all combs have been fitted in the
frames and placed in the new hive
and all the bees brushed on to the
sheet and into the new hive; then
remove all the honey and the old
hive to prevent robbing. In two
or three days open the hive and re-
move the sticks or strings from the
frames if the combs are fastened in
securely, and the transfer is com.

Victims to stomach, liver and
kidney troubles as well as women,

appetite, poisons in the blood, back
ache, nervousness, headache and
tired, listless, run down feeling. But
there's no need to feel like that.

Judge, as light comb on one side
and a heavy one on the other will
cause the reel to wabble and some
times jump out of the socket.
Turn the crank slowly at first if
the combs are very heavy. Only
throw out part of the honey from
the first side, then reverse the
combs and turn fast enough TO
throw out all the honey from that
side. Then reverse the combs
again and run the machine fast
enough to throw out all that re-
mains. A little practice will soon

Propagattnx the Peach.

Plant the seeds the Fall previous
and cultivate the following Spring;
then do the budding in August or
September. The buds unite to the
stock and make their growth the
next summer Take very sharp
knife, divide the bark vertically
about an inch near the base of the
tree and about 8 inches from the
ground. Then cut the bark hori-
zontally near inch at the top of
first incision. Take your limb of
buds from a thrifty tree and of
the new growth. If the pith is
dark don't use the buds, as the
tree is not healthy. Cut the buds
an inch in length, with little
wood under it. Take your knee,
fit the corners of the incision in
the tree, press the bud downward
and let it lift the bark to fit itself.
Turn the corners over the sides of
the bud. Now tie above and be-
low with soft yarn. This does not
cut the tree, as cord does. 1t gives
a little, as the tree grows so fast.
Wrap the yarn near five times
above and below the bud. If you
wrap it too loose the buds would
dry out. Stock and bud will unite
in about two weeks; then take of
tie. Be sure and not set the buds
upside down. In the fall of 1897
planted six rows of my potato
patch in peach seeds. They came
up nicely. I kept the ground in
that fine and moist state that just
suited little trees. They grew s
feet high. / budded them in Au-

THE VERY Willy ENGINEER
ABOUT THE BALTIC-BLACK SEA
CANAL.
No Such Canal Contemplated by Rus
sian Government-Consul General
Holloway's Investigations.

There is no Baltic-Black Sea canal
in contemplation.
Some year or so ago the New York
Herald published an account, with Il
map, of the Baltic and Black sea ship
canal, which was to be 213 feet wide
at water level and IA feet at the bot
tom, and thus Russia was to be able
to move her largest battle ships from
the Black Sea to the Baltic seaboard,
and would no longer have to take the
loEg voyage round the continent of
Europe. The article was widely copied
and commented upon, both in the
states and in Europe.
Consul-General Holloway in recent
letter to the department of state says
that in consequence of this publica-
ton he has received stacks of letters
from engineers, newspapers, contrac-
tors and manufacturers of eXcavating
machinery asking for specifications,
cost of labor, details as to contracts,
and so forth. These became so numer-
Gus that the consul-general decided to
interview Prince 1ilkoff. minister of
WAYS and communication.
When the prince was interrogated
he was much amused and said:
"Some time since a French engineer
called upon me with the map from
which this is copied, as well as an esti-
mate of the cost of building the same.
| asked where he procured the data
his estimates were based upon. He
said From Russian maps ! then
informed him that there were no cor
rect maps of that portion of Russia,
and his canal was 900 miles too short. "
The Prince added that the Russian
government had no idea of building
such canal: indeed, he doubted if
there was sufficient money in Russia
to do so. There had been discussions
in the past as to the propriety of
building a canal connecting the Black
and Baltic seas large enough to en-
able gunboats to pass through, but
its cost prevented its serious consid-
GRAFTON.
The consul general adds to his COM
munication that sit would be well to
ask American papers to correct the
impression that Russia is building or
intending to build this ship canal"
Evidently the French engineer not
being able to do anything with his
scheme with the Russian government,
sold his idea to the New York Herald,
map and all. with the 900 miles short.
