quart of millet seed to 20 hens in
the morning, scattered far and wide
so as to make them work, with nothing
at noon, and just as much as they will
eat up at night, with variety of other
food, is an excellent plan of feeding.
To know how much they will eat let
them fill up until the last hen walks
away satisfied. If fed twice a day,
however (fll them), they will become
rolling fat. If done three times day
it may kill them. The millet seed is
intended to keep them at work. The
seeds being small, they will work hard
to find them and can only eat slowly

Keeuiup Well Wafer Pure.

1t used to be an old-fashioned GUS
tom in the country to put one or two
trout in a well to insure the water
being pure and wholesome. If they
did not keep it so it was supposed
that they would give warning of it's
impurity by dying themselves. We
are reminded of this by seeing in an
English paper that, Prof. Sobrero, OF
Turin, has lately advised the use of
eels in the house cistern for the same
purpose. He says two or three not
large but lively eels would devour any
thing in the water in the shape of ami
malcules, infusoria, bird dropping
from the roof or vegetable matter of
any kind We think they would also
take any animal matter like toads or
rats that might fall in and drown.

IDEAL HENHoUsE WINDOW.

by an arm screwed to the casing. The
lower sash is hinged at one side and
swings out. This plan will work well
under many circumstances where the
winters are not too cold, and where
the fowls are kept in pens side by side,
with adjacent yards outside. In such
a case it is often inconvenient to get
into the yards unless one can go out
into them from the pens With this
method of swinging the sashes the
necessity for having a door in each
pen, as well as window, is done away
with. In cold climates such a plan
can be used for spring, fall and sum-
mer, closing the windows in the win
ter and putting on outside sashes.
This device calls for low window, and
this is desirable on other accounts, as
only low windows let the sunshine
quickly onto the floor on winter morn
ings.-N. Y. Tribune.

LOCATING AN APIARY.
Where Eastwood and Glover Abound
Ii the Place Where Bees Lay
Up Honey and Thrive.

If it is the intention to make bee
keeping a business, for the dollars and
cents that are in it, it is certainly of
great Importance to consider well the
location of the same. There are locali-
ties, even in the radius of few miles,
that are much better than others.
There are localities where white clover
is very abundant, and where a crop
is sure every season, whether it is long
or short, while there are others that
are not so, and occasional years only
furnish n crop. Eastwood is another
principal honey resource, and where
this and clover both abound is de-
sirable locality for an apiary. Bass
wood or linden is a good timber to
cultivate. 1t is very hardy and makes
a rapid growth, and might take the
place of cottonwood, so extensively
grown in the west. In a valley where
fall flowers are plentiful is a good
point to seek for, as a late flow of
honey is very desirable to place bees
in good wintering shape. Alfalfa is
one of the best honey-producing plants
we have at present, and it would be a
safe place to locate, even if no other
honey plants are in reach, but it would
be all the better if other honey plants
are present. There is a long list of
honey-bearing plants, but we will give
but few of the principal ones. Millet
or sweet clover, crimson clover, alsike
clover, mammoth or pea-vinc clover,
tulip tree or popular, black or sour
gum, wild asters, golden-rod, willows,
maple, buckwheat, cleome or spider
plant, all kinds of berries and all kinds
of fruit trees, whether wild or domesti-

Could Change His Mind.

Prof. Hendershott is well known IN Pltts-
burgh as man of affable temper, and It Is
rare that he shows even impatence. One
car to call on friend, he asked the con-
ductor to transfer him to the city street
cars at a certain point. Soon afterward the
car stopped and he was surprised to see out
side the very friend he was seeking. He
started to leave the car, when the conductor
accos.ed him. "You can't change for your
car here" he said, brusquely The pro.
fessor passed him, taking no notice. Can't
change cars here, l tell you," snsnped the
conductor again. The professor, deep in
conversation with his friend, merely waved
his hand to signify that the car might go
on without him. Here" cried the man
in brass buttons, angrily, don't / tell you
that you can't change cars at this place."
Then the good old professor answered with
severity: but / can change my mind at
