Wow to Transfer Bees.

Bees never attack when their
stomachs are filled with honey or
other liquid sweets. This is their
normal condition when swarming,
and therefore they are then harm
less, and also when returning laden
to their hives. Neither do they
attack when thoroughly frighten-
ed. We frighten bees by blowing
smoke among them or by rapping
rather violently on their hives.
When bees are alarmed in their
hives by smoke or conclusion,
their first impulse is tc fill their
honey bags from their combs.
Bees in a hive that is constantly
being raped against will in few
minutes rush boldly out from
among their combs into an empty
skip or box set over their place on
exit from the hive.

FOR THE FARMER.
RAISING Sweet Potatoes.

Select rich, sandy soil and pillow
deep. Be sure that the ground is
fine, and then throw it up in small
ridges about 3 feet apart. These
ridges can quickly be shaped up
with a hoe to a uniform size. l
think it best to leave the ridges
stand several days so that the
moisture will get more evenly dis
tributed through them. As soon
as the danger of frost is past in
the Spring, and the ground is
warm, select the plants. Take the
plant in one hand and with the
other hand make hole pretty
we'll down III the top of the ridge,
so that permanent moisture may
be secured to the roots. Press the
dirt rather firmly around the roots.
Set the plants IS, to IS inches
apart. | would not water the plants
unless the ground is very dry. Set
the plants out III the evening, or,
still better, during cloudy weather.
When all the plants begin to grow
and the weeds appear, with hoe,
shave the surface of the ridge
away from the plants, and when
the plants begin to vine, hoe the
dirt up around them and the
tending" is done. Dig before
frost and pack in dry sawdust.
Avoid letting the potatoes get
chilled, and you can have sweet
potatoes until Spring.

eyes and from these they usually

others remove all but one. | do
neither. Any plant to make a
good growth needs plenty of
leaves. When my vines start in
to growth in the Spring l pinch
back all but the cane that l wish
to let grow. Those that are pinch
ed back form a nice bunch of
leaves which serve to shade the
ground and take in from the air
for the benefit of the remaining
cane. When a sufficient number
of leaves have matured, the canes
which have been pinched back
are removed to save further work
in keeping them pinched back.
By this method | have had vines

in two.

In preparing the soil for plant
ing, it is best to pillow a strip 10
feet wide or more where the rows
are to be, pulverizing it thorough
ly and making it mellow as pos
sible. 1t is of the utmost impor-
lance that the soil should be made
as fine and mellow as possible, that
the roots of the young trees may
meet with favorable conditions in
starting a new growth. In max
ing selections, do not always
choose trees that show the largest
size, but have more regard to their
general thrifty appearance. Those
that stand upright and have a
stocky, thrifty appearing body and
branches are best. They will be-
come sooner established in a new
location, and are much more likely
to live. Another important point
is to avoid trees that have only

two or three main branches leav-
ing the body. They are quite
liable to split down when they
come into bearing and the tree
will be ruined. This is especially
true with the Baldwin. Have at
least four limbs branch from the
stem as nearly opposite one an
other as possible. These branches
as they attain their growth Will
form a solid knot that any strain
coming on the limbs when heavily
loaded will not be able to split
down.

The above price is $4S per ton.
That would seem to be better than
wheat at SIS. 1t isn't too late yet
