when the Bee. Clean House.

The honey bee, like every good
housekeeper, begins cleaning house
in the spring, as early as the wealth
er will permit. They may be seen
at the hive entrance bringing out the
bees that have died in the winter,
bits of comb, and everything that
may have accumulated in the hive as
waste material. They are not con-
tent to drop this at the edge of the
bottom board or near the hive, but
cart it all to some distance away.
and it looks strange to see bee fly
ing off with the body of dead COM
rade as large as itself. This work is
done before they begin to gather
pollen or honey, and any colony that
does not attend to this as soon as
they can take good fight needs
looking after, as it is probably very
weak, or perhaps queenless. After
they have completed this work, they
are ready to go to rearing brood,
and they may need feeding.-Rural
World.

LATH COVER OVER RUNS.

is also made of split lath, except the
outside and crosspiece, which are full
width. The cover is hinged at a a to
top of double wall and the other end
rests on top of brooder. The sliding
door in cover is for feeding and wa
tering.
At evening, while the chicks are in
brooder or in the middle of the day,
while they are in outside runs, the
covers are raised and hooked to the
ceiling, the partitions are lifted out,
throwing all the runs into one, and
are very easily cleaned. The advan-
tages are when the chicks are put
into the runs they are there to stay.
There is no flying over partitions, nor
flying out of doors opened when wa
tering or feeding, as the slip doors
can be opened just enough, to put in
anything desired, as trough, drinking
fountain, etc.-Orange Judd Farmer.

MADAM BAvEAS TESTIFIES.

A Distinguished Lady, After Travel

Health, at Last Finds 1t in
Dodd,s Kidney Pills.
Hot Springs, Ark, March Is (Spe-
ciaD.-This popular resort numbers
among it's patrons many of the worlds
most distinguished men and women,
but none more so than Madam Isabelle
Ellen Baveas, Life Governor of the
Free Masons Grand Lodge of England.
Madam Baveas, like most of the
other visitors, came here in search of
health. She was not disappointed, but
her cure was not found in the virtue
of the baths, but in few boxes of
Dodd's Kidney Pills, a remedy which
she found on sale here, and which is
being used and with wonderful success
by number of the visitors to Hot
Springs. She says:-
II travelled almost constantly for
the pastsixyears in the interests of my
Society, and my health gradually be-
came broken down, through the
change of food, water, climate, etc.

and advised me to go to the Springs,
as they could do nothing for me. While
there my attention was called to
Dodd's Kidney Pills by a fellow suffer-
er, who had been greatly benefited by
using them.
II profited by her experience and
bought box, and then another, and
so on until had used seven boxes. It
is with gratitude that state that
they cured me completely, and am
now able to take up the duties of life
once more. am very thankful for
what Dodd's Kidney Pills have done

THE DUTY OF MOTHERS.

What suffering frequently results
from a mothers ignorance; Or more
frequently from mothers neglect to
properly instruct her daughter
Tradition says woman must suf-
fer" and young women are so taught.
There is little truth and great deal
of exaggeration in this. If a young
woman suffers severely she needs
treatment, and her mother should see
that she gets it.
Many mothers hesitate to take their
daughters to a physician for examina-
ton; but no mother need hesitate to
write freely about her daughter or
herself to Mrs. Pinkham and secure
the most efficient advice without
charge. Mrs. Pinkham's address is
Lynn, Mass.
The Ely miner. [volume] (Ely, Minn.) 1895-1986, 1901-03-22

Mrs. August Pfalzgraf, of South
Byron, Wis, mother of the young lady
whose portrait we here publish, wrote
Mrs. Pinkham in January, 1899, saying
her daughter had suffered for two
years with irregular menstruation-
had headache all the time, and pain in
her side, feet swell, and was generally
miserable. Mrs. Pinkham promptly
replied with advice, and under date of
March, 1899, the mother writes again
that Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable
Compound cured her daughter of all
pains and irregularity.
Nothing in the world equals Mrs.
Pinkham's great medicine for regu-
lating woman's peculiar monthly
troubles.

HANDY BROODER HOUSE.

COnveniences of a Useful and
Practical Nature.

The brooder house have used for
the past five years accommodates
nicely $50 chicks until eight weeks
old. 1t is nine by twelve feet with
shed roof, three feet high on lower
side and seven feet on higher side.
1t allows two feet for alley, two feet
for brooder and five feet for runs
The part used for the runs is double
walled one foot high. The remainder
of the house is built of one-inch boards
battened, which makes it sufficiently
warm for this climate.

for the fowls to clutch, and the other
should be three inches or wider. The
advantages of this style of perch
are strength and the possibility of
getting straight perch. Light wood
may be used and still have the perch
of ample strength. The perch may
be made removable by having block,
b, with slot C, nailed to the sides
of the coop. The two strips may be
pulled apart at frequent intervals to
clean out lice if any are discovered.

inches to catch droppings, but should
be cleaned often.-Wilfred E. Stone,
