LOCATING AN APlARY.
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 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 good timber to
cultivate. It is very hardy and makes
a rapid growth, and might take the
place of cottonwood, SO extensively
grown in the west. In 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 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-vine 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

Keep the EGGS Clean,

Keep the eggs clean by keeping
the nests and everything about
the. hen house clean: When eggs
get dirty, as they sometimes will,
in spite of all precautions, they
should be washed before being
marketed, but it is better not to
have to wash them. Receivers of eggs
say that washed eggs will not keep,
and that the solutions sometimes used
to make dirty eggs look nice and clean
destroy the quality. Often eggs so
treated spoil before the lot can be
jobbed out.-N National Stockman.

NOT THAT KIND or 4 CAKE,
1t Looked suggestive Of a Wedding
But Was Intended for a Diff
ferent Purpose.

An East end car was loaded down with
shoppers. mostly women, for it was in the
middle of the afternoon. Conversation was
proceeding at a great rate. 1t was like a
pink tea or session of the sewing circle.
But all at once hush fell over the fair chat
terers. A negro lad entered, bearing in his
arms an immense cake, three or four decks
high,. and frosted over from pit to dome, as
they say of theater. There was profusion
OF flowers by way of decoration, and delicate
tracerles OF gauzy lace completed the en-
bellishments. The cake was so large that
the negro could scarcely carry it.
.. The cake told the whole story of the we'd
ding, the bridesmaids, the orange flowers, the
flower girls and the banquet afterward.
Every feminine heart in that street car was
a-dutter as it's owner gazed> speechlessly
upon the evidence of wedding to be.
Finally, when the car stopped to let on
another passenger and everything was very
still, one lady took courage to ask the negro
where the wedding was going to be-
"Whut weddin'?" ?" asked the negro, his eyes
protruding.
.."The wedding that cake is for."
"Dis amt no weddin' cake.''
Nom. Dis yeres er cake walk cake"
There was smile that reached from, one
end of the car to the other, and very soon
conversation was resumed as before.-Mem-
