SENSIBLE BEE TALK.
When Properly Managed the Apinry
Pays as Fair q Proht as Any
Other Farm Industry.

It costs some 40 to 50 cents a hive
10 use full sheets Of foundation in all
the frames, and about the same for
each super In the section boxes. What
10 the gain7 There will be little or no
trone comb. The useless dronrs in a
hive will consume more than so
cents worth Of sugar in season.
The more drones reared, tn, less
worker bees there will be to store
honey. says the American Cult vator.
The workers which would .ccupy
the space that the drons con d fills
might store so cents or oplar's
worth Of honey in a season. Much
honey would have been used up in
making the comb for which the foun-
dation is q substitute. We think we
speak within bounds when we say that
every half dollars worth Of founda-
ton used In . good colony viii add
from one to three dollars to tn value
OF honey gathered in a seasou. and
when one is working for ex' acted
honey so that he can put the cmptv
combs back, the gain may be ore.
In this connection we would 'cpeat
the advice given before-allow drone
comb only in the best colonies. those
that are gentle and good honey rath-
erers, that these qualities my be
transmitted through the male parent
OF the workers as well as through the
queen. There has been little atten-
tion paid to this by even the be bee
keepers, but we think it is imp rtant,
and II it has not been proven 81, it is
time some one did prove 1t. Do not
allow the bees to be crowded for room
to work in and store their honey.
When super is from one-half 70 two-
thirds full, raise it up and put an
other under it that they may work in
both. BY the time the top one is
capped over, it will be me to put q
third one underneath it, Witt ,plen-
ty OF room there will be less tt. drncy
TO late swarming.

The Real Danger

The Census and Persons Away From
Home During June.

The count of the people in the United
States will begin in all parts of the coun-
try June l., and end in the cities two
weeks later and in the rest of the country
before the close of the month. The peo-
pie are to be counted at their places of
residence, but as many persons and fam
lilies will be away from their homes dur
ing June there is some danger that such
persons will not be counted. If they are
not counted, the locality in which they
live will be misrepresented to that ex-
tent, and in some cases this misrepresen-
tation may be enough to affect the repre-
sentation in Congress of the State from
which they come. Local pride and state
pride, therefore. should influence all such
absentees to take reasonable precautions
against being omitted from enumeration
in their places of residence. Such omis-
sions are most likely to occur in the large
cities where families close their homes
and go elsewhere for the summer. The
occurrence of the Paris exposition this
year is likely to increase the number
absent from the country.
In all cases of contemplated absence
the head of the family is requested by
the Census Office to communicate with
the supervisor of the district in which
he lives He is also requested to leave
information regarding his answers to
to the questions which are to be asked
with some responsible neighbor who
will agree to see that it reaches the emu
merator on his rounds. Such informa-
ton might better be left as memoran-
dunn in writing, as in that case it is less
likely to be overlooked. The questions
to which answers are desired apply
primarily to the population, but also
to all farms and manufacturing estab-
lishments. They are being published
from time to time in the press of the
country.
By taking this trouble the absent citi-
zens will do justice to his locality and
his state, and materially aid the Gems us
office in the performance of its duties.
