AsroR SPENDS MONEY FREELY.
His House One of the Most Hospital
BILE in England.

One of the most extravagant house
holds in England is that of William
Waldorf Astor, whose son William is
now in this country. Astor, ST., is
entertaing large house parties in
Cliveden. 1t would be hard to excel
the Astor hospitality. A band of ten
musicians is stationed permanently
in Cliveden. Every night this band
plays and the guests may dance or
not, as they choose. A few weeks
ago the duchess of Wellington was
the Astors' chief guest. She said
she was dying to have some anna
teur theatricals." She wrote out
list of costumes and the steward was
sent to London for them. A stage
was built in the ballroom and scenes
were painted hurriedly. This enter
tainment for the duchess cost a great
deal. Since young William Aston has
been in America nothing has been
heard of him in a social way. He
served in His Majesty's guards and
is as British as though he were a
John Bull by birth.

telry in Montana, are going to have
a cooking contest Each will serve a
dinner of seven courses, the one pro-
ducing the best meal to receive 81 900.
Dowst believes in cooking without the
use of liquors, while Petit contends
that many viands can be greatly i'm
proved with a dash of brandy or wine.
The contest will not only test the skill
of the men, but show whether fine
cooking can be done on lines of tee
totalism.

BOTH FEEL
What Proper Food Does for Both

Physical health, mental health, in

earth depend in great measure upon
proper food.
Without health nothing is worth

this: Three years ago l was taken

and felt that 1 would die of general

SO much relief that 1 quit the medi-

Winterina Bees.

Winterinq Bees.
Mr.. John Fixtes, apiarist at the ex-
detrimental farm at Ottawa, giving evil
dence by the standing committee on
agriculture on the wintering OF bees,
said:
We have tried very extensive ex-
periments in wintering bees in the
following situations: In the cellar OF
a private house; in the root-house,
where the roots are kept; in pit.
that is a hole dug in the ground on
a hill side; out of doors, on their
summer stands, and also in the house
apiary- We found that wintering In
the cellar is the best method in this
section of the country, and l am safe
in saying, it is better to winter in
the cellar in any section of the coun.
try where the thermometer goes down
to 10 below zero. The amount of
honey consumed by outside wintering
will be about one-fourth or one-half
more than it will be by wintering
inside; in that way it compares very
favorably with the wintering of ami
mails, if you winter an animal out
around a straw stack, it takes very
much more feed to keep up the animal
heat. 1t is the same with bees.
Keep the bees at an even tempera-
ture, As to As degrees, and in fairly
good cellar: it is not necessary that
the cellar should be perfectly dry.
The best way to arrange the hives in
the cellar is to place a block about
three inches thick under the entrance
to the hive so as to raise them from
the bottom board. Most people when
they have purchased two or three
hives, think that they must prevent
the bees from coming out of the hive
during the winter and put the wire
gauze over the entrance; the newt
able result is that they smother their
bees. 1t is far better on the contrary
to give them free ventilation at the
bottom.
