When large apiaries of Italian bees
are kept, it is essential that all blacks
and hybrids within a radius of mile
be disposed of. if the swarms are to be

must do this in order to protect his

hive all stray swarms which are re-

WHY THE FARM BOY WINS,
It Is Because His Early Life Has Made
Elm Responsive to Every
Moral Suggestion.

NO boy need ever regret that he was
born in the country and reared on farm.
He may lack the keenness and polish oil
the city cousin. He may be embarrassed
by his own awkwardness, and feel that
he is at hopeless disadvantage in the
race, but the country boy has WIDER
range OF practical ideas. From the veryI
first his little services are in demand.|
He becomes at once part of the forcel
that is making for home comfort and
prosperity, and feels the Independence
of one who is helping 10 support him
self and add to the general store. The
farm boy is likely to regard his life as
one OF drudgery, and such it may be-,
If he loses interest in his surroundings
or is pressed with continual round OF
duty. There is something heroic IN
the country boys struggle with the>ele-
ments. Rain, snow and sleet only brace
his courage. The garnering of the crops,
the housing and feeding of the do,
nestle animals. the gathering and prepl
aration of the winter fuel give purposes
and zeal to his toll. Then there is the
long tramp, sometimes of miles, to the

after long hours of labor. Is it any
wonder there are keen wits developing
all outside of graded systems and tn de-.
fance of pedagogical order? 1t is the
Intensity Of purpose with which the
mind acts under the influence ofsvigor-
Gus health and the conscious value Of
time that accounts for these results So

OF active world-workers, men. not afraid
to do their duty, and bubbling over with
energy and ambition. Touch the coun-
try-bred boy, now the merchant prince
or the successful professional man, and
how responsive he becomes to every
suggestion Of moral life! The same
canont be said of boys reared in the
midst of other surroundings 1t is the
contact with nature that makes the in
delible impression upon life. No great
er gain can come to the country at large
than that which comes from the promo
ton OF the love and appreciation OF
rural life. Health, happiness, purity
and peace are the natural inheritance
of those who dwell surrounded by fresh

A HAY-sTAckINo DERRICK.
Continuance Like the One Here De-
scribed Saves Lots Of Time
and Lessons Labor.

Many farmers, whose barn capacity
is somewhat limited, stack the larger
portion of their hay crop until after
threshing, and then haul 1t into the
barn later for winter feeding. Under
such circumstances this method seems
advisable, for then, if the weather
should happen to be like what we have
had the past two seasons, there is not
the danger of losing the entire grain
crops. OF course during some seasons
there is a greater bulk of roughage to
be stored than during other seasons,
nevertheless, the majority of farmers
know just about the producing capa-
city of their land, and can quite accu-
rately estimate amount of barn room
that will be required to store their
crops and from year to year be able,

does not soil SO quickly, while it also
washes exceedingly we'll, and does not
fade as soon as the similarly pale
shades OF blue, pink and heliotrope, so
often used for children's coats and
frocks, although it must be confessed
that they are all of them equally pref
ty and becoming. The neat little coat
which we illustrate is quite simply
trimmed with a number of rows of
line white stitching down the front and
round the hem, as we'll as on the cuffs.
The coat fastens over on one side,
with large buttons of pale green bone.
While for smart occasions it is provid-
ed with collar of white Valenciennes
lace and insertion, finished in front
with bow Of sift white washing silk.
The shady summer hat is made of the
same green linen as the coat, and fine
ly stitched. 1t is trimmed with wide
scarf of white soft silk ribbon, spotted
with green. and tied in a very large
double DOW in front.
The other little girl wears rather 3
smarter kind Of costume, suitable for
Sunday best, or even as dress for
very youthful bridesmaid or train
bearer at summer wedding. The
frock is carried out entirely in white
embroidered muslin, and made up over
slip of pale blue pongee silk. Two
1ounces of open-work embroidery
form the skirt, while the embroidered
sleeves are very prettily plated on the
shoulders, and again at the wrists.
There is deep cape collar of the same
embroidery, with wide band of en-
broidered muslin down the center of
the bodice in front The little chemi-
settle is of white muslin, crossed by
bands of insertion. The sash, which is
tied very low in the waist, is of for
get-me-not blue soft silk, while the
quaint Dutch bonnet is also of white
embroidered muslin, lined with pale
blue silk. 1t is turned off the face in
front, and finished on either side with
clusters of forget-me-nots. The bonnet
strings are Of pale blue ribbon.
Something very smart indeed for
mademoiselle in the way of picture
frock is shown in our other illustra-
ton. Although the effect is so de-
lightfully original. the style of the
dress is really perfectly simple. The
material should be either a soft floral
muslin, or a delaine, patterned with
tiny pink rosebuds. The skirt is made
very full and plated into the waist,
where it is finished with a deep belt
of soft leaf-green Louisine silk rib
bon. Near the hem there is a very
pretty trellis-work of the same kind of
leaf-green ribbon, but in narrower
width, fastened just where the lines of

Similar little roses are also used
upon the fully-draped sleeves to catch
up the fulness along the inner side OF
the arm, while they appear again upon
the front of the bodice, where the trel-

different way. In this case, the leaf

round the shoulders fchu fashion, be-
fore being arranged in trellis form in

while the bodice is prettily finished

chemisette of transparent ecru lace.

suitably carried out in figured net or

is sketched with this dainty muslin
frock is Of pale tan-colored Leghorn,
with wide band of black velvet rib
bon, folded round the high crown, and
clusters of full white ostrich plumes,
arranged to droop over on to the brim

The craze for picture frocks and pic

various interesting possibilities. Num-

by old masters can all be pressed into
service, and will be found to offer in

RAISING HOGS ON SHARES.
A Practice Quite Popular in Iowa and
One That Yields Big Profits
to Investors.

Iowa farmers in many cases are rent
ing lands on which hogs are grown on
shares, having stocked the farm on
shares to tenants. A telegram from
Iowa City says that the problem now is,
on what basis shall the increase of
brood sows and other animals supplied
on shares be divided at the end of the
season?
The owner of the animals placed out
on shares has usually expected at the
time Of divisions half of the increase of
such animals, or if the animals are not
sod, an equitable division of them has
usually been made. This plan has been
carried out many times in this county
with both sides of the bargain we'll
pleased, despite the fact that the first
owner of the sows gets all the best of the
bargain.
The way IN which careful farmer of
the county figured it out this spring, and
1t is on his figures that the most of the
present contracts are based, is to take a
herd OF teIs sows, and placing the usual
value upon them, about $3.50, credit that
to the owner. He credits also ten acres
of pasture land. rented for about $50, to
the same side of the book, bringing his
investment up to about 5000. He then
takes the average production, of about
six pigs to the sow, and values them at
$72. or $720 for the whole herd.
Up to this time it has been the custom
for the investor to take half of this
sum, or $3.50. as his share of the in
crease, and since money has been tight
during the past few years, he has had
no trouble in getting it. 1t gives him,
however. about $50 per cent. on his in
vested capitN for the risk involved.

Fashion Notes from Paris

taffeta mousseline can be admirably
mixed with cambria and lace.
The Henri II. sleeves are a feature
of the best picturesque frocks of the
moment. Diaphonous fabrics of all
kinds must, OF course, be used But
though we are in the midst of volum-
nous masses of drapery, beautiful lace
and embroidered muslins, we daily
hear rumors from Vienna that the
plainest of tailor-made costumes will
shortly be in vogue. The leading
Americans have already appeared in
coats made with small close-titting
sleeves, over, the most severe-looking
blouses, almost like bodices. The old
habit-coat, with small basque is, l
hear, to be revived. 1t is, of course,
only the f1rst-class tailor and the wo-
man possessed of really good figure
who should attempt these plain tot
lettes.
But for the moment the muslins,
taffetas, linons de sole, and such like
ethereal fabrics hold their own, and
the picturesque modes will remain
with US until we adopt the cloths and
serges of the autumn.
Everything is bouillonnee, gagged
and applique. Quaint cross-over pele-
rine effects are arrived at by the soft
fichu or by piped plaitings. These are
in keeping with the lines of the skirt,
and the Henri II. sleeve. Curiously
stin are the old-fashioned killings
though the fabrics mostly used are
soft, and there is generally a little
chemisette of lace or embroidered mus
lin. The same applies to ruches, which
are made In every variety. Muslin
and Valenciennes can stand any
amount Of plating and ruching.

His ability was rewarded In the

the grades of his profession until he
became a recognized authority on

with a remarkable memory for facts

with the chart work of the survey dur

very great value in all matters con-
corning the compilation of charts from
the older records, and the numerous
drawings compiled and made by him
during the last half century are said to
bear witness to the skill and fidelity

as soon as q crop is ready to be har-
vested, to secure i. by storing under
shelter. There is but little doubt that
If the loss sustained from stacking
crops were accurately figured out,
there would be enough loss upon the
majority of farms in five years to pay
the cost of building barn sufficient
ly large to store all the crops raised
upon the farm.
The past two rainy seasons have, I
think, demonstrated that capital in
barns is good investment. There
are, however, a great many farmers
who are abundantly able to have con-
venient barns for storing their crops
who have not. simply because they do
not believe the above statement. Upon
my own farm have plenty of stor-
ing room for all the hay and grain. if
had not, l would not hesitate mo-
ment to invest in more barn room.
But where the barn room is linz
tied, and it is necessary to stack hay,
derrick similar to the one illus
trated in the cut can be erected that
will greatly lessen the labor involved
in stacking. The derrick shown in cut
requires three poles, two 40 feet long
and one 81 feet. The two longest poles
should be arranged in the shape of an in
verified V by boiling the ends together
with three quarter-inchb bolt The poles
should be set into the ground at least
four feet in order to help stay the
derrick. The derrick can be raised
by the use of rope and tackle. and
thus greatly lessen the heavy lifting.
1t will be necessary to stay the poles
by running No. 10 wire from tho
top to the single pole over the top
of the other poles, and then down to
the ground about 80 feet from the
foot of the derrick. 1t will also be
necessary to stay the derrick in 9TH
er directions. The manner in which
the fork is arranged is very clearly
shown in the cut. This derrick has
now been in use five seasons, and has
proved very satisfactory.-Leo c. Rey-
