an apiary of sixty hives or more it
frequently happens that several
swarms issue simultaneously, and, of
course, always cluster together in one
huge mass. If the queens are at large
with the bees, the cluster will neces-
sarily be hived as one swarm, and the
queens will kill each other until only
one survives. To prevent this loss,
practice in my home apiary method
with perfect success, which, while it
is not exactly a self-hiver, still comes
very near to it. A week or so before
swarming time I slip a queen trap on

The swarm Will invariably return in

Geese Are Clean Birds.

In an interview Mr.. RenageT, the
Kentucky geese raiser, gave the fol
lowing interesting facts regarding
geese and their habits:
II "a goose is the cleanest fowl alive
I have been in the poultry business
since 1871, have handled all kinds OF
domestic fowl, and have studied their
habits closely. They are constantly
at work keeping their feathers clean
and if furnished with plenty of water
they are never seen except when ft
for dress parade.
! '-They are equally as careful regard
fng their food. On one occasion we
bought a lot of corn which had grown
musty, and the geese would not eat
the dough made from it. Nor will
they eat dough after it has soured
On this account we have to be very
careful to mix up no more dough than
the geese will eat in a day.
Another thing peculiar about geese
is that they eat a great deal more some
days than they do on others. For In
stance, It frequently requires thirty or
forty buckets of dough day to q
given pen of geese. Then for q few
days they will probably eat not more
than a dozen buckets" - Southern

For ones own room a pretty device
is to take yard of broad satin ribbon
and prepare q handsome bow for each
end. Take a number of photographs
and paste a strip of strong paper to
the back Of each, leaving an unpasted
space at the center through which the
ribbon may pass. Run the ribbon band
through the openings so that the row
of photographs stand face outward
mounted on the strip. Sew the bows
to the end of the ribbon and tack the
bows to the wall. A vertical row of
photographs can be made by running
the strips of paper across the backs
of the photographs and only lacking
the upper bow to the wall or prefer
ably putting no bow at all below.
