POLITICAL.

In the Lebanon county fight of last
week Goblin weakened and the Elkin
delegates were elected
On Sunday it was reported from At
lantie City that Gov. Stone was willing
TO remove Recorders Brown and Muir
ply Of Pittsburg and Allegheny.
I'm the interest OF harmony he IL will
ing to appoint Attorney w. b. Rodg ers
and ex-Delinquent Tax Collector Samuel
G. Grier. This proposition has been
made to Rodgers and Grier through
Senator Quay. Since Governor Stone
betrayed the Bigelow- Oliver faction
Qnay has insisted that all the Finn ad-
herents should be eliminated from
politics.
Durham in the past month has grown
very active in Allegheny county politics.
He still wants Elkin elected Governor,
and believes that the only way In which
harmony can be established IL by ripping
out any person connected with the Stone
alliance. Durham has made this prop
osition to the Pittsburgers whom Re
corder Brown has attempted to deal
out. Among them are County Treas
urer Mcclure. Register Edwards, Depu-
ty Register Mackrell, Judge Rodgers
and County Commissioner Murray.

A NEW HIVE COVER.
4 Combination of Tin Top and Tent
CnuyuS Sides,


The tent apiary probably solves the
much written about hive cover. Bee
keepers need not be told that material
from a tree which grows by its ability
TO absorb water from the air and earth
does not lose its affinity for water even
years after seasoning, when atmcs-
phere or other conditions favor absorp-
tion.
1t is practically useless to try-to keep
bee hives from sympathizing with the
air surrounding and within them ell
ther in a dry or damp climate.
With the present high price of good
lumber economic considerations would
not seem to justify further experiments
with wooden hive covers. No hive is
complete without an outside cover that
will protect the hive proper against
heat and rain. Painted wood costs
/ more if of choice and valuable kinds
than tin and is of no comparative
value. Lightness, however, was the
great incentive to their adoption.
That my apiary has had no other coy.
ers than the tin top and canvas sides
since leaving the cellar last April is
evidence that it can be used.
1t may be further observed that such
tents are a great pleasure in handling
when necessary. They weigh not more
than four pounds and are very easy to
manipulate. OF course my hives are
not like any others in use, but any hive
having a tin top and a narrow curtain
around it to fall down over the sides
would do away with all warping fea-
lures so much written about.
The interior Of my hives are practi-
cally solid and would stand the ex-
posure as well as. any. but l use the
outside arrangement because | think 1t
pays. The top or roof is an unplaned
pine board an inch thick and seventeen
inches square. The tin roof is formed
at the sides like a square tin pan by
turning down the edges an inch and
half on all four sides. This tin is fas
tened to the board with nails driven
through the rim into the edge of the
board The tent cloth | use is the com
mon tent cloth ftcd in tents for hunt
ers, etc. 1t is split In two lengthwise
and cut into pieces long enough to 90
loosely around the hive and sewed to-
ecther so as to form tube or bag with
open ends It is fastened into or on the
cover with strips Of lath long enough. to
make good corners. This lath secures
shallow chamber across the top of
the hive three-eighths of an inch high,
dead air space
a frame Of hath or pieces the length
of each side Is fastened to the lower
edge Of the canvas so II will drop loose
ly over the interior or main hive. No
paint is required II the tin In good
enough 50 it win not rust. If the tin re-
ceives coat Of oil every spring, it
wont rust and Will not absorb the
suns heat
1t seems strange that some Of those
beeKcepers that have had trouble with
combs melting down in the sun have
not tried unpainted tin for n roof or
even sides OF tin. Tin does not absorb
much heat from the sun. 1t Is a thou
sand times better than any painted
wood or iron A tin covered hive would
not only be moisture proof, but sun
proof and about as Chap. as choice
lumber. cor iudes Michigan man
