BEES IN THE SPRING.
why 1t Is Not Advisable to Remove
Them from the Cellar before
the Weather Is Settled.

There are often warm days in the
early spring when bees might be re-
moved from the cellar. but the trouble
is that winter is not always over with
the advent of the first spring-lile day.
There may be several days. or even
two or three weeks, of quite warm
weather. in which the willows. ;ilders.
elms and soft naples bloom, and it is
really desirable that the bees enjoy all
these advantages; bH such fine
weather, when it comes early, is quite
. likely to be followed by freezing wealth
CT OF several days duration, and even
by u snowstorm. The fine weather en-
couragcs the bees to fill their combs
with brood that would eventually pro-
duce workers ready for the fields Just
at the opening of the first white clover
blossoms. but the cold drives the bees
into compact cluster in the center of
the hive. leaving half the brood, per-
haps more. unprotected. This brood
perishes; besides, the newly-hatched
bees. If any there are, are tender, like
a newlyhatched chicken, and easily
succumb to cold The old bees have
lost a good deal of their vitality and
the cold snap is he ''last straw" need

COOP AND CLEANER.

fine enough to exclude all providers of
the night. This is to be used in the
summer time when it is 100 hot to shut
the coops with the tight doors. The
other door can be made to shut over the
wire door by Ringing at the top. The
wire door is made to slide in from the
top or end. With the coop tightly
closed there will not be sufficient VEN
tilation. A ventilator made of 3 or A.
inch boards hailed into a box about
2% feet long, set in the middle of the
coop roof and extending down inside
to within couple of inches of the bot
tom will suffice. At the rear, to aid
in cleaning, should be door about
inches wide, extending the whole
length of the coop at the bottom. BY
lifting this and using a small hoe-likc
tool, a, made by taking a block AXIS
inches and boring a hole in the center
and putting in a handle about feet
long, the job of cleaning is a short and
easy one. All coops should be paint
ed and the roof made tight enough to
prevent leaking. These coops arc not
too heavy to be carried to any place
where it il desirab BILE. The illustration

AMONG THE POULTRY.

in placing an incubator in position
use u spirit level, to be sure it is level ON
all folr sides.
There is greater danger now from too
much ventilation in the poultry house
than from too little, especially when
the wind is blowing.
1t is d wastcful habit to throw grain
or any food for poultry onto filthy
ground or into unclean troughs or YES
sells. 1t also endangers the health OF
the flocks.
If the poultry yard does not pay
the grocers' bills, then one of two
things is truc--either the fowls do
not have enough attention or your
credit is too good at the grocery store.
Have the breeder heated to 80 degrees
when YOU first remove the chicks from
the incubator, but do not keep it al
that temperature longer tnan four or
five days. by that time. so degrees is

both for the freedom of ventilation re-
quired in day time and security from
maraudng pests at night is one qres-
ton that is answered in the design.
AS will be seen in the illustration,
the coop is so arranged that sunlight
and air are admitted through Il Wire
netting front in daytime and by clos
ing the hinged door (A). which rests
upon the roof in daytime, the coop is
securely closed against all pests al
night. The coop being made of light
material, it can be moved o a fresh
place every day or two, and gives the
old hen ample range in her commodi-
Gus quarters. Coops may be made any
size to suit the taste; good size be
ing 2x3 feet, floor plan. Two feet high
in front and is inches in the rear. The
roof of this coop may be made of
matched material as ceiling on floor
ing, and can be covered with roofing
paper to better exclude water. Such
coops should have movable floor in
the early spring which will exclude
dampness and prevent gapos. \ good
broodlng coop, as every housewife
knows, is half the battle in rearing n
flock of chickens, and no farmer should
deny his farmyard fowls a few good
coops to hover in during the broodn@
season. They can be made during
stormy days when other work cannot
be performed about the farm. --Gcorge

Fat Hens Bring Good Prices.

With all the abuse that can be
heaped upon q fat hen because she
does not lay she brings more in the
market than any other kind of poul-
try except the turkey and at times
the difference in favor of the turkey
is very little. AS the consumers are
willing TO pay good prices for fat hens
it is best to sell them as soon as they
cease laying, if in a very fat condi-
ton as the time required to get such
hens to the proper condition for lay
ing again may be weeks, or even
months. The best time to sell is when
you have the article the consumer re-

1t was once supposed that the best
mode of feeding was to throw the
soft food in dirt, as the more dirt
a hen could eat the better but this
has been found dclusion. Hens can
eat all the dirt they wish without
having it forced on them. Many dis
eases are induced by compelling the
hens to eat mixture of food and
filth. and all feeding places should
therefore be kept very clean. as filth
is not always discernible and may be
present in a decayed condition. The
better plan is to feed on boards. OF
in troughs. and clean them daily

Why Small Matters Should Receive

The periods of feeding should be
regular. certain hours being fixed
upon for that purpose; but there arc
very few who thus Systematically

times, and it should not only be clean
and pure, but frcsll yet this impor-
tant matter is overlooked by many.
