KfIIed Lion Win His Teeth.

From Lander (Wyo.) correspondent of
the Chicago Tribune.
An records of hand-to-hand encount-
ers with wild beasts have been smash
ed by Arson Sercoff, of TORY Creek
Canyon, who bested a mountain lion
few days ago. Sercoff was prospect
ing, when he ran across a lions den.
Determining to secure the kittens, he
dug his way into the den. At that In
slant the mother lion sprang upon him
from the rear. and a struggle ensued.
The lion overestimated it's first leap.
and did not secure a good~hold, and
Sercoff was enabled to twist about
and face the animal. With one hand
he grasped its lower jaw in such a
manner that it could not use its teeth
and with the other he managed to cross
the forefeet and hold them against his
body so that the claws could not be
brought into action. The lion and the
man rolled over together, and Sercoff
worked his body in between the beasts
hind legs. In this position the lion
was able to do little with its claws.
Sercoff buried his teeth until lions
neck and tore frantically at the flesh
until he severed athe jugular vein. The
lion struggled fierce1y, but soon became
so weak from the loss of blood that
Sercoff was enabled to spring out of
range and watch it expire. He emerg-
ed from the encounter with few
painful gashes. The skin of the AMI
nal measures eight feet from tip to
tin.

Extrnction OF Perfumes.
From Nature

The extraction of the perfume from
flowers, such as jasmine, tuberose,
violet and cassia, has long been carried
out by the process of enheurage, the
blossoms being left in contact with
purified lard for few days, and then
replaced by fresh blossoms. The lard
IS either sold as such, or the essen
ual oil may be extracted from it by
netting it under strong alcohol.
AS the process of enfieurage is some
"hat tedious, attempts have frequently
neen made to extract the oil directly
from the flowers by means of light pc
troleum, but these processes have not,
as rule, proved successful, and 1T has
recently been found that very large
proportion of the perfume is actually
produced for the first time in the dos
SONS during the time occupied by the
entleurage.
An interesting illustration of this is
given by DIR. Albert Hesse in recent
number of the "Berichte," in which ne
states that a ton of tuberose blossoms
Welded only sixty-six grams of oil
~hen extracted with light petroleum,
out during enfleurage yielded sol grams
ol OIL to the fat in which they were en-
pedded, while a further seventy-elght
grams remained in the faded blossoms
ana could be separated by extraction
UT dlstillation. 1t thus appears that
eieVen times as much perfume is pro-
uuced during enfIeurage as is original
W present in the flowers, and that even
after enfleurage the exhausted flowers
contain more perfume than when first
gathered.

one dexterous cut, laying the honey
bare from end to end. This frame was
then lowered into the hive with the un-
capped side close against the cluster
ing bees. Another comb similarly treat
ed was placed on the opposite flank of
the cluster. Outside each of these a
second full comb was as swiftly
brought into position. Then the sliding
inner walls of the brood-nest were
pushed up close to the frame, and the
quilts and roof restored. The whole
seemed the work of a few moments at
the outside.
"All this early spring work." said
the bee master, as we moved to the
next hive, lis based upon the recogni
ton of one thing. In the South here the
real great honey flow comes all at
once; very often the main honey har-
vest for the year has to be won or lost
during three short weeks of summer.
The bees know this, and from the first
days of spring they have only the one
idea--to create an immense popula-
ton so that when the honey flow be-
gins there may be no lack of harvest
ers But against this main idea there
is another one-their ingTained and in
vincible caution. Not an egg will be
laid nor a grub Matched unless there
is a reasonable chance of subsistence

be increased only in proportion to the
amount of stores coming in. With a
good spring and the early honey plen-
tiful, the queen will lay as many as
1000 and 5000 eggs a day. and the
population of the hive will advance ac-
ccrdingly. But If, on the very brink of
the great honey flow, there comes, as
is often the case, a spell of cold, windy
weather, laying is stopped at once, and
IL the cold continues all Matching
grubs are destroyed and the garrison
put on half rations. And so the work
of months is undone."
He stopped to bring his friendly pipe
to my succOr again, for a bee was try
ing to get down my collar in the most
unnerving way, and another had APP
parently mistaken my mouth for the
front door Of his hive. The intruders
happily driven off, the master went
back to his work and his talk together.
But it is just here that the art of
the bee keeper comes in. He must pre-
vent this interruption to progress by
maintaining the confidence of the bees
in the season. He must create an arti-
fetal plenty until the real prosperity
begins. Yet, after ALL he must never
lose sight of the main principle, of car
rying out the ideas of the bees, not
his own. In good beemanship there is
only one road to success; you must
study to find out what the bees in
tend to do, and then help them to do

thing works naturally"
bee had settled on his hand as he
was speaking. He closed his fingers
gently over it and forced it to sting.
Now" he continued quite uncon-
cernedly, look what really happens.
The bee makes two or three lunges be-
fore she gets the sting fairly home.
Then the poison is injected. Now
watch what she does afterWard. See!
she has finished her work and is turn
ing round and round! The barbs are
arranged spirally on the sting. and
she is twisting it out corkscrew fash
ion. Now she is free again! And
there she goes, you see, weapon and all;
and ready to sting again If necessary"
The erocus-fiiling operation was over
now, and the bee master took up his
barrow and led the way to a row
of hives in the sunniest part of the
garden. He pulled up before the first
of the hives, and lighted his smoking
apparatus.
These he said. as. he fell to work
'have not been opened since October
and it is high time we saw how things
are going with them"
He drove a few strong puffs Of
smoke into the entrance of the hive
and removed the lid. Three or four
thicknesses of warm wooden quilting
lay beneath. Under these square of
linen covered the tops of the frames,
to which it had been firmly propelled
by the bees. My friend began to peel
this carefully off, beginning at one
corner and using the smoker freely as
the linen ripped away.
This was a full-weight hive in the
autumn" he said, 80 there was no
need for candy feeding. But they must
be pretty near the end of their stores
now You see how they are all to-
gether on the three or four frames in
the center of the hive? The other
combs are quite empty and deserted.
And look how near they are clustering
to the top of the bars. Bees always
feed upward, and that means we must
begin Spring feeding right away.
He turned to the barrow on which
was a large box. lined with warm ma
terial, and contained bar frames full
of sealed honey-comb.
''These are extra combs from last
summer. / keep them in a warm cup
board over the stove, at about the
same temperature as the hive we are
going to put them into. But first they
must be uncapped. Have you ever seen
the Bingham used?"
From the inexhaustible barrow he
produced long knife with a broad
flat blade, and, posing the frame Of
honeycomb vertically on his knee, he
removed the sheet of cell-caps with

THE MODERN BEE FARMER.

Feeding the Young Bees With Pea
FIOur-Why the Insect Stings.
The Smoking Apparatus-Obeyin
the Orders of the Hive.
From the Pail Mall Gazette.
1t was sunny spring in the bee gar
den. The thick elder-hedge to the
north was full of young green leaf;
everywhere the trim footways between
the hives were marked by yellow bands
of crocus bloom and daffodiIs, just
showing a golden promise of what
they would be in a few warm days to
come. From a distance l had caught
the fresh spring song of the hives, and
had seen the bee master and his men
at work in different quarters of the
waxen city. But now, drawing near
er, observed they were intent on what
seemed to me a perfectly astounding
enterprise. Each man held a spoon
in one hand and a bowl of some kind
of yellowish powder in the other, and
l saw that they were busily engaged
in filing the crocus blossoms up to the
brim with this mysterious condiment.
My friend the bee master looked up on
my approach, and, as was his won't
forestalled the inevitable questioning.
They take it instead of pollen"
he explained. "It is a pea-fiour, and
they knead it up with honey to feed
the young bees. Yes; the queens have
begun to lay now with the warm
weather, and you can't encourage
them in a better way than this. Every
thing depends on getting the stocks
well forward in the spring, and as they
never breed freely until pollen is plen-
tiful, we just help them in this fas-
ion"
As he spoke / became rather I'M
pleasantly aware of a change of man
ners on the part of his winged people.
Hitherto, on former visits, the bees had
taken little or no notice of my pres
ence. But now first one then another
came harping round, and settling COM
fortably on my face, showed no incli-
nation to move again. In my ignor-
ance / was for brushing them off, but
the bee master came hurriedly to my
rescue. He dislodged them with few
gentle puffs from this tobacco pipe.
THAT is always their way in the
spring time" he explained. 1.-THE
warmth of the skin attract them, and
the best thing to do is to take no
notice If you had knocked them off
you would probably have been strung"
is it true that a bee can only sting
once?" / asked him, as he bent again
over the crocus beds.
He laughed
What would be the good of sword
to soldier" he said, IF only one
blow could be struck with it? It is
certainly true that the bee does lot
usually sting a second time, but that
is only because you are too hasty
with her You brush her off before
she has had time to complete her bust
ness, and the barbed sting, holding in
