BEES IN THE MAILS.

Of the mails tossed the box heavily upon

bees. Thc Insects had somewhat the best

kerchiefs were whipped out and waved In
all directions. but they refused 10 recognize
the flags of truce and stung right and left.
When the clerks finally retreated To take
an inventory OF their injuries the bees few

through the open windows and doors.
As a result OF that experience a a. now

wooden boxes, covered with wire screens.

FARM AND GARDEN INTERESTS

that the case. therefore, had been unfairly
presented. says a writer I'm the New Eng
land Farmer. The horticulturist of the
station now adds the following statistics
to those already published: Lucan Allen,
Of South Hero. has 800 bearing apple trees,
covering between five or six acres of land.
From these he sold in New York 90 bar
rels Of the crop of 1900. for which he re-
ceived q gross return of $S15.25. or an aV-
erage price of So. 40 a barrel. Freight, cart
age and commissions ate up $lg4.15 of this
sum, leaving a net cash return of $1O.Jl.
In addition TO the $700.50 received for apples
sold i'm New York. Mr.. Allen sold a con-
siderable quantity at home, from which
he realized an additional Sl95.50. This
makes a total of $500 for the years crop.
or $50 TO $3.50 an acre. Another Vermont
apple grower. who objects 10 having his
name used. but whose accounts have been
examined and found correct. has made stnl
more remarkable sales. Last year his to-
tai sales mot nett were S.543.25 from lOAe

word or in thought. bear resemblance to the
one under consideration.
Coming now to the second part of the
Scriptures, We find at the start a pleasing
change in its general designation:
THE NEW COVENANT;
Commonly Called
THE NEW TESTAMENT
Our Lord and Savior
Jesus Christ.
The question naturally arises why the
first part might not as appropriately have
been designated:
THE OLD COVENANT;
Commonly Called
II l. TESTAMENT.
Then the heading of the Gospels is fresh
and inviting. First:
THE GOSPEL:
According TO Matthew.
The word Saint" or its abbreviation,
st" is omitted entirely in the running
headline: it stands Matthew" Mark"
etc. At it's beginning we find simply "Ac-
COrding 10 Mark the same rule being APP
piled to each book. The Acts is shorn of
the familiar words, 'of the Apostles The
heading of Romans is without the d~esigna-
ton of Paul as the apostle Similarly
with the other Pauline epistles. The book
or Hebrews is headed simply, THE EpiStle
TO the Hebrews" instead of including "of
Paul the APOSTLE" as heretofore. The
Epistle of James no longer carries the
word general in it's title. The epistles
of Peter also are shorn of the term gen
eral in their titles. as are also the epistles
of John and Jude. Instead of 'The Reve-
lation of St. John the Divine We now have
the simpler heading of The Revelation of

to talk about, but "A moments reflection

LIKELY TO BE POPULAR.
And now what about it's general accept
ance and adoption by American readers?
l believe it will find favor more rapidly
than did it's predecessor of fourteen years
ago, because a way has been made for it.
Yet there are lions in the path. The vested
interests of publishers and the restrictions
of Bible societies stand ready to challenge
it. Prejudice and ignorance and bigotry
will oppose and ignore it; the world has
not yet reached a general level of broad
mindedness. Popular esteem for the King
James version was scarcely attained in a
half-century. When jerome, the monk of
Bethlehem, produced the Vulgate it was
tampering with the inspired Word of God, -
and everything possible was done 10 dis
credit it. But Jerome was in advance of
his time. He retorted in no unmeasured
terms TO his ASSISTANTS, calling them
fools" "stupids," 'two-legged donkeys.'
yet died before his work received due
recognition.
Such will not be the fate Of the American
revision. Nothing hitherto has approached
it in actual value. The world is demanding
the best things and will have them. Espe-
cially the American world is making such
demand, and it has less to contend with i'm
attaining them than we find in other coun-
tries. Americans think for themselves, and
when they come to know and understand
the beauties and the intrinsic value of this

the grounds into a miniature military camp.
The Mothers Club. the all-important aux
Hilary of the Boys Brigade, was also pres
ent with the necessary forage for the husky
young soldiers. They pitched their tents"
and issued rations at all hours of the day
with a liberality not in keeping with the
average commissariat. There were also
sisters. brothers, cousins. aunts. uncles and
friends, making a complete encampment of
about $500.
There were twenty events on the pro-
gramme. The day started off with a mill
tsry review and inspection. then came
the contests for prizes. The first prize
given was for the best drilled soldier. Frank
OLeary, of Company "A, won this prize.
Frank Fletcher. of Company Il. won the
prize for being the best dressed. In the
band contest Emmett KelIeher won the

THE ATHLETIC PROGRAMME.
The afternoon was devoted exclusively to

new VERSION OF BIBLE
COMPLETED AMERICAN REVISION TO
BE ISSUED AT NICE.
Chapters and Verse m Re-
main, but Psalms Are Put Under
TitIes-Other Changes.


c. r. Blackall. d. D., in Philadelphia Rec
ord.
The seal of commercialism which through
fourteen years has held in check the issue
of the Bible in its best form has now been
broken by the expiration of a contract that
should never have been exacted by the
English revisers. nor agreed to by the
American committee of the joint body.
l fully understand the reasons that led
to that agreement, and the difficulties that
were in the way of settlement on any other
basis than that which was adopted. but all
the same l reiterate that 1t ought not to
have been required that the preference of
the American revisers should be held in
allegiance, and the American public be de-
prived of it's rights with regard to the
Scriptures through so long a period as
fourteen years.
Tomorrow, Aug. %, in this first year of
the new century,, the completed American
revision Of the Bible will be issued and be
on sale in the various book stores Of our
country. 1t deserves at our hands more
than a passing notice.
The English revision companies long ago
~disbanded, but the American committee
maintained it's organization. and so far as
practicable, continued its work. The pref
erences of the latter have been heretofore
given i'm an appendix TO the ordinary re-
vised version; so marked was the favor
with which they were received that they
are now Incorporated in the text, after be-
ing themselves very thoroughly revised.
The day of concession to the other re-
visers having passed, the American com
mittee has gone far beyond its original
work, and has introduced into the text
numerous cancellations hitherto suppressed
for the sake of harmony.
WORD JEHOVAH RESTORED.
We find, therefore. that the word "Je-
hovah" takes the place of Lord" and
Cod and thus this personal name, with
its wealth of sacred associations, is now
restored to the place in the sacred text to
which it has an unquestionable claim
The word ''sheol' is uniformly used for
1.-THE grave 1.-The pitt and hell" Numer-
Gus verbal changes clarity the text at
points where previously there was obscur-
ity.
a few examples of the changes made are
here given:

what the Farmer Must KNOW.

New York Times.
There is the study OF insects. In New
York State alone the annual loss from
insects that destroy fruits. vegetables.
plants. trees and live stock is estimated
at SOS. 600. 900. This enormous destruction
can be greatly lessened viii proper care
after proper education. For instance, there
is the May beetle. whose larvae feed on
the roots OF corn, grass and Strawberries.
At the very time when these pests arc
most active and villainous. the screech-
owl is rearing its young, which eat the
May beetles by millions. Yet the farmers
will kill the screoch owl on sight. The
European cabbage butterfly will destroy
cabbage and caulinower Ina a way 10 make

nit suicide. Yet he doesn't know that a
remedy is easy and at hand. for one pair

The scientific farmer must know just these
little things TO convert his farm from A
load on his shoulders TO a source OF profit.
