BEE AND HIVE.

II the hive rests on the ground, it
will be too damp.
1t will pay to use foundations by fill
ing all frames full.
Set the hive n little above the ground
to admit of a circulation of air.
From 8 o'clock a. IN. to , o'clock p. m.
includes the hours of successful operat-
ing with bees.
Procure new blood in the apiary. In
breeding is as Objectionable with bees
as with live stock.
1t is necessary to unite all weak col
onies that will be unable to build up
into strong stocks.
Care should be taken to save all
young brood and the brood combs OF
those containing brood.
On account of it being the only ma
1eriaI that can be depended upon to
stay pine is the best material for hives.
Combs should not be left in empty
hives about the apiary. That is the
worst place they can be left, as moths
are always TO be found near the bees
and are sure to infest the combs.
One advantage in closed end frames
is that hive full of combs may be
handled as though it were a single
piece instead of a collection of loose
pieces, thus saving work, worry and
time.
If the bees cannot conveniently enter
the hives during the sudden changes of
cool weather, quite number will be
lost; hence care should be taken to
have the entrances arranged so that the
bees can enter readily.

FOLLOWED THE LEADER.
A Case Where Naval Cadets Turned
DiacipIine Into n Joke.

Discipline Into N Joke.
Among other good stories told by
Cyrus Townsend Brady in his Under
Tops'ls and Tents" published by Scrib-
ners, is this:
1t is related that large number OF
naval cadets were negligent in follow
ing the service in the chapel, which was
after the ritual of the Episcopal
church. An incautious officer in charge
on Sunday morning made a little adj
dress to the church party on the sub
ject, saying he supposed that some of
them erred through ignorance, but if
they would observe him carefully and
do as he did-in military parlance, fol-
low the motions of the commanding Of
ficer-they would not go wrong.
Word was passed quietly through the
battalion. They marched into the
church. The officer in charge took his
place in The front pew, settled himself
in his seat and calmly blew his nose.
Three hundred noses were blown ST.
simultaneously with a vehemence that
was startling. The officer looked around
and blushed violently in great surprise.
Three hundred heads followed the mo-
lions of the commanding officer" Six
hundred cheeks violently tried to blush,
hard thing to for a midshipman to do,
and so on through the service.
The man could not stir without in
slant imitation. He finally confined
himself strictly to the prescribed rit-
ual of the service, looking neither to
the right nor to the left, not daring to
raise a finger or breathe out of the or
binary course. This enterprise also
was a startling success.
The Gao Is received other instructions
later in the day from a furious officer
who sternly resented their innocent
statements that they did not know
which was ritual and which was not
and that he had not instructed them
that blowing his nose stood on 4 differ
ent plane from saying his prayers. 1t
was 4 huge joke everywhere.

wben Gold Looks Green.

Gold can be beaten out 30 thin that it
allows light to pass through it, in
which case, though it still appears
brilliant yellow by reflected light, 1t is
green as viewed by transmission-that
is, by the light that passes through it.
This curious effect can easily be OBJ
served by laying a piece of gold leaf
upon a plate OF glass and holding it be-
tween the eye and the light, when the
gold will appear semitransparent and
of n leek green color.
