NOTES FOR BEEKEEPERs.

Never pull up the cover that the bees
have so closely sealed down unless com
PEELED to do so.
In all hives there should be three
personages-the queen. the worker bee
and the drone.
Beekeeping combined with fruit
growing enables one to take double
crop from the same land.
Any extra work about the apiary
should be attended to and everything
gotten in readiness before the bees be-
gin to swarm.
Worker bees, being undeveloped fe-
males, may now and then be sufficiently
developed to lay eggs, but their eggs
will produce only drones.
The worker bee does all the work of
the hive, gathers in the honey, pollen
and water, secretes the wax, builds the
comb, ripens and caps the honey.
When returning frames to the hive,
adjust them slowly and carefully. Do
not slide the frame to its place at one
push; slide it up slowly, just to touch
the next frame.-Maine Farmer.

CHEAP MOTIVE POWER.
Il Small Gasoline Engine VIII Do
More work, at Less Expense,
Than Wind or Water.

The ingenious farmer can contrive
many ways whereby natural forces may
be made to serve his purposes. He
can so harness water that it will grind
feed, shell corn, saw wood and chop
feed; he can secure the services of the
wind for similar purposes, and there
are gasoline engines, tread powers and
steam powers ever ready to do his
bidding. These last three are pow
ers which manufacturers have for sale,
while the water and wind power may
be secured without much cost.
It is astonishing how much work can
be gotten out of a little gasoline en-
CINE; it Will earn its price every week
on an ordinary farm. It's feed is cheap
and its durability and strength are re-
markable. And another important
thing is the engine is cheap. 1t can be
used for a great variety of work re-
qufring motive power. For running
the corn shelter, ensilage cutter, corn
husker, wheat fan, grain cleaner, bean
huller, etc., it is a great convenience.
The price of gasoline engines makes
their purchase more practicable than
to attempt to secure the services OF
the wind or of water. Besides, they
are so much more reliable-Farmer's
Voice

LINCOLN HELPED HER.
Wow Nancy Scott, Runaway Slave,
Found Her Husband
Again.

The death at the Rhode Island state
Institution for the insane of Nancy
Scott, aged 20 years, which occurred
during the last week of May, brings
to memory a story of Abraham Lin
coin which has never been published
Way back in slavery days Nancy
Scott and her husband were slaves on
a Virginia plantation owned by one
of the prominent and wealthy f. F.
VS. of the commonwealth. Nancy
was the trusted housekeeper of the
family. While young she was mar
Tied to a young slave on the same
plantation. Her marriage occurred
about the beginning of the civil war,
and after the first few months of
fighting her husband disclosed to her
his intention of running away and
working his way north, seeking a
means of livelihood; he bade her re-
main where she was until he could
communicate with her and said that
when he became established where he
was sure of supporting her he would
ssend for her to go to him.
Months went on, says the New York
Sun, until one day a dusky little one
came to Nancy's arms. When the
baby was year old Nancy decided to
try and escape and travel north, hop
ing to hear some news of her baby's
father. She left her cabin one night at
nearly dawn, carrying her little one
in her arms, and passed slowly across
the country which was the fighting
arena of more battles than any other
territory in the south. She was try
ing to make her way to the Potomac
river, and there, at some obscure land
ang, take a boat for Washington.
tSuch place she reached one hot day.
When the boat arrived she went aboard,
keeping as much out of the way of the
passengers as she could There was
~ group OF men seated on the quar-
terdeck Among them one whose
lean, gaunt figure and dark, seamy
face somewhat attracted her notice.
When the boat neared Washington
she left her place below among the
freight and timidly went up to the
igangway. The steamer had arrived
at her dock and the passengers were
leaving, but the group in which the
dark, rugged man was seated had not
yet dispersed.

But the dark, seamy-faced man, with

women in the south, and for her feats
in this line she was known throughout
the country. She was educated at
the Mount Washington female seminary,
and it was while she was home on a
vacation in 1859 that the John Brown
raid at Harper's Ferry took place.
Shortly after this she spent her first
winter in Washington society, where
she created no small stir. Much of
her time was spent in listening to the
debates in the senate and house, and
when she returned to her home it was as
a full-fedged secessionist. Later, when
Patterson and Cadwallader's troops
invaded Virginia and swarmed around
her home in Martinsburg, drunken
soldier insulted her mother. Belle was
present and promptly drew her revol-
yer and killed the soldier. For this of
Tense she was brought before Gen. Pat
terson and court of inquiry was held.
The hearing resulted in her discharge,
Gen. Patterson declaring that she did
right and that he hoped every other
southern girl would follow her exam
pie under similar circumst ances. Dur
ing her VIII ole career Belle Boyd proved
handy with firearms, and once she shot
James Collier, who, she claimed, had
wronged her daughter.
In her engagements with the south
ern army she performed many feats
of daring. During the battle of Front
Royal she ran across the battle field
under fire from both armies and deliv-
cred an important message to Gen.
Jackson, which saved the bridge from
being burned and the officers army
from being surrounded.
Later she was made captain in the
regular army and wore the officers
uniform when occasion required, act
ing as aid de camp on Jackson's staff.
1t would take a book to tell all the
adventures of Belle Boyd and all the
hardships she endured in her later life
while carrying on a heroic struggle
to support her children.

Sailing THE SHEEP.
Satisfaction to One Who Has
Tried 1t for Years.

1 would like to describe an apparatus
for sailing cattle and other stock so
they will always have salt before them
and no waste, writes Joseph H. Yoder,
in the National Stockman. For cattle
or horses I would prefer to use rock
salt placed in boxes or troughs for the
winter and scattered about the pas
ture on the grass in summer. Rains
have little effect upon it and this viii
be found both convenient and ecOnom-
zeal. For sheep, however, this Plan
does not work so well. The rock salt is
so slow to dissolve that they are not
able to get sufficient amount of it to
satisfy their wants, hence it is neces-
sary to use the loose salt for them.
DUNG the winter box can be fastened
up at a convenient place in the shed
and at the proper height so they can
have access to it a all times of the day.
In summer if they have not a shed to
run under the box can be fastened to
gate post and have roof placed over it
so as to keep out the rain. If it is de-
sired to use loose salt for cattle the
same arrangements can be used as have
already been described for sheep. The
roof over the box should be high
enough to be entirely out of the way
of the animals. Where loose salt is
used it is necessary to be careful to
keep supply in the box all the time, as
the animals are liable to eat too much
if they go without for several days.

THE MYSTERY OF DREAMS.
Case In Which the Condolences
Were Somewhat
Striking.

On an occasion during the civil war
I dreamed that I was standing be-
side a road when there came march
ing along it a strong column of pris-
oners, with guards at intervals on the
tanks, says a writer in the ST. Louis
Globe-Democrat. l asked one of these
guards who the prisoners were and
where they had been captured. He in
formed me that they had been taken
in an engagement with the enemy on
the day before and that there were
1900 of them. I then asked some by
stander what day of the month it was
and was told that it was such a day
of a certain month, some six weeks
later than the date of the dream. The
whole dream was extremely distinct,
and it made a strong impression on
me. I related it to a number of my
comrades within the next few days
and then thought of it no more.
Six weeks later, on the morning of
the very day that had been mentioned
in the dream as the date when the
column of prisoners had passed be-
fore me, I was on picket two miles
distant from the point where had
seemed to be when I saw them. 1t
was soon after breakfast, and l was
standing by the side of the road at
the fire talking to the officer of the
picket when an aid to the command
ing general came riding down the
road He had been a schoolfellow of
our officers at West Point, and he
refined up when he recognized his
friend. He told US that he had good
news, that there had been a sharp
engagement with the enemy the day
before and that our people had cap
tured 1900 prisoners, who had just
passed the headquarters that morning
on their way to the rear.

STORAGE ROOM NEEDED.
An Important Item which Unfor-
tunately Is Overlooked by quite
Number of Beekeepers.

1t is Just as unreasonable to expect
bees to store you a crop of surplus
honey, without ample storage-room
properly equipped, as anything can be,
and to complain at the bees for not
doing it is proof sufficient of lack OF
intelligence. Yet it is done.
You will occasionally meet an old
''mossback" that will tell you that
bees do not do any good in this coun-
try any more, and that they cannot
make a living here, or they cannot
make living there, when the facts
are that his remarks are applicable
to himself instead of the bees.
Some who should know better NAV
also tell you that this country is be-
coming overstocked with bees, when
we all know that there are tens of
thousands of pounds of honey going
to waste for every one pound gath
cred, for want of bees sufficient to
save it.
This country is improving faster in
nectar-producing blossoms by far
than the rate of increase of bees.
While it may be true that some locaIi-
ties are overstocked with bees. yet,
take it as whole, it would be absurd
to think of.
The amount Of storage capacity
properly applied for surplus honey
has all to do with the size of the crop,
and if we do not apply it we fail. We
may have a poor honey flow which
we cannot help, but we can get ready
for it if it comes, and it seldom fails
to pay expenses, to say the least.
The best standard hives are all
equipped with the necessary storage
room for surplus, and if we bring
these into use we seldom make a mis-
take in this particular.
There is q right time and wrong
time to add surplus boxes, but as a
rule they should be applied at the be-
ginning of the principal honey flow
of the season. Colonies must be
strong to at once accept them, ard
weak colonies should not have them
put on until they become strong. SUI
pers should also be added to a colony
when it is crowded for space in the
brood chamber, and thus prevent it
from swarming, if possible.-A. Il.

any other water that may overflow the
tile drain runs along through the
loose stones beneath the house, and
runs into the loose stone wall be-
meath the front side of the house. A
house ten feet long, or a hundred feet,
could be built in this way along a
hillside. A house of this kind on a
southern exposure is excellent for win
ter use, being sunny, protected fl %n
the cold north and northwest winds,
and having good drainage in front.
When built as we have described, the
drainage from the rear cannot affect
it injuriously.-F Journal

BELLE BOYD, THE SPY.
The Woman Who Became Famous
Through Her Work for the
COnfederates.

American history proba bly, furnishes
no parallel of the tempestuous career
of Belle Boyd, the famous confederate
spy who died a few days ago. The
story of her life reads like the weird
tales told in yellow-covered novels.
Though not a beautiful woman she
possessed the art of capturing the
hearts of men and was much married
woman. Two of the five husbands
with whom she lived were Choctaw In
dams. While living with one of them
in the Indian territory in 1890 it was
reported that she had been shot and
killed. Her warrior husband procured
a quart of bad whisky and rode forth
to kill her slayer only to learn that
it was a woman of similar name who
had lost her life, says the Chicago
Times-Herald.
Long before she became identified
with Stonewan Jackson, Belle Boyd
had the reputa ton of being one of
the most graceful and daring horse

feeding floor, for one side, and light
ia by 31A-inch strip for the other side.
Pin the rounds on each side carefully,
and the ladder will be practically indie
structible. The light side piece should
be securely fastened at top and bottom,
so that the whole ladder may be per
fectly rigid. The top can be mortised
with crossbeam in most cases-the
beam that runs parallel with the barn
floor. If the common detached ladders
are to be used one precaution should
surely be taken-they should. have
sharp iron points inserted in the lower
ends, SO that there may be no chance
whatever in their slipping. This is one
of the great dangers of the ordinary
ladder, and another is that arising from
weak rounds" An ounce of proven
ton is valuable in this case.-N. Y.

Beekeeutng for Farmers.

D. n. Richie is very emphatic in the
belief that every farmer should keep
bees, and says a farmer who hasn't one
or more colonies is not up to the times.
He thinks not five per cent. of the farm
ers have honey on the table for food,
and he probably might have made the
percentage much smaller without dis
tressing the truth. A notable state
ment is this: 81 can show you farm
ers living by me who had not had crop
of clover seed for 20 years, until I
moved here and bred my bees to such a
size that they can work on the red
clover; and now they are getting large
yields of the very best Of seed. busy
