How to Find a Queen.

The problem of finding a queen bee
is one that has troubled many bee ex-
perts, and there are two ways Of doing
it, according to Farm, Stock and Home.
Before opening the hive, blow a little
smoke in at the entrance then gently
raise hive cover, and while doing so
blow a little more smoke under as it
is raised, but be careful not to use
any more smoke than is necessary or
bees may get to boiling over, making
it next to impossible to accomplish the
object. Having removed the cover,
sit down by the side of hive and with
a screw driver pry loose the frame
next to the side of the hive where you
sit, lift it out gently, and carefully ex-
anime 10th sides of it for her royal
highness., If she is not on that frame,
set it down on end right in front of
the hive, leaning it against the hive.
Lift out the second frame and examine
it in the same manner and when sat
isfied that the queen is not in it, hang
it back in the hive, close to the side
next to yourself, this leaves a space
between it and the next frame, Care
fully examine each frame replacing
them as before until the last one is
reached and if you have not been sue
cessfuI, put the last frame back in it's
own place and again examine each one
as before while putting them back
where they belong.
The chances are that one will be
secured at first or second handling, as

quentIy become so alarmed that it is
impossible to find a queen by the
above method. The only way to do
in such a case is to shift the bees INTO
another hive, using an entrance
guard; to accomplish this proceed as
follows:
Set the hive containing the bees to
one side place an empty hive on the
stand (where the colony belongs), and

New Zealand,

New Zealand is the interesting
country to which economists refer
when they wish to prove any old
thing.
1t is situated a good ways from any
where.
In New Zealand political corruption
is unknown, and yet it is unfair to
conclude from this that the people
there don't know much.
There are no very rich persons in
New Zealand, and while there are
newspapers, these necessarily contain
no society column in the true sense
New Zealand has no submerged
tenth, no help problem, and no trusts
But there is the weather, and stomach
troubles are beginning to come in, so
that conversation can be kept up,
after fashion.
Many educated New Zealanders
think imperially, but the masses still
fancy Aristotle bigger man than Joe
Chamberlain and cling superstitiously
to the old categories.-Puck.

A SONG OF THE HILLS.

The green hills, the clean hills, with
oUt stain upon them,
When little vernal whispers breath,
and woodsy affairs pass
When all the glory of the springs re-
kindled life is on them,
The beauty of the bourgeoned
boughs, the glamour Of the grass.
The fair hills, the rare hills, what sight
hath blither seeming,
Than they reveal when sUmmertide
sets seal upon the earth!-
The meads below them cleaning, the
sky above them dreaming,
And not tune save those that throb
with melody and mirth.
The old hills, the gold hills, with orient
autumn DER them,-
The autumn with her wonder-loom
whereto she turns her hand,
And 10! straightway upon them and
about them and before them
A web no mortal skill may match,
uOC e en- In SamarcanQ!
The white hills, the bright hills, with
winter skies above them,
The north-wind roaring round their
their crests,-how saga-like it's
song!
Although the wild storm compass
them, o heart O. mine, we love
them,-
The cold hills, the calm hills, the
staunch hills, the strong!
The glad hills, the sad hills,-how joy
and sorrow blended
Engirdle evermore the paths where
boyhood's feet have clOmb!
All, how affection clings to them, and
will till life is ended,
The grand hills, the free hills, the
dear hills of home!

MAKING SAGE Cheese.


Sage cheese, with it's yellow sur
face notified and fecked with small
dark grayish green spots, is an old
time favorite., Sage is very old sea-
soning herb and sage cheese is very
probably of old English origin. The
manufacture of sage cheese is now
carried on in limited way only in the
United States, and is restricted to
certain localities, yet many people are
exceedingly fond of it, and will pay
from one to two cents a pound more
for it than for ordinary cheese. The
Michigan experiment station has
studied the subject of sage cheese
making and states that this cheese is
prepared in exactly the same way as
Cheddar, the common American fac
tory cheese, differing from it only in
possessing a sage flavor, which is i'm
parted to it by adding sage extract or
sage tea to the milk before the curd
is precipitated, by adding the extract
to the curd before sailing, or by add
ing sage leaves to the curd before salt
tract to the milk is Objectionable, re-
quiring large amount Of sage, 10 to
u ounces for 1000 pounds of milk.
The addition of extract to the curd
gave entirely satisfactory results in
tests at the station when the extract
was not too diluted, and when it was
added cautiously to prevent waste.
The amount of sage required was six
or seven ounces for the curd from
1000 pounds of milk. The most salts
factory method, however, was found
to be the old-fashioned way of adding
the sage leaves to the curd. This re-
quired the least amount Of sage, three
ounces being sufficient for the curd
from 1000 pounds of milk. In follow
ing this method the sage should be
weighed, the stems all picked out
and the leaves finally powdered and
added to the curd just before sailing
One of the important Swiss cheeses
resembles sage cheese in that the
powdered leaves of a plant are added
in it's manufacture. This "schabzi'
GER" green, or "krauter" cheese is
made from sour skim milk and butter
milk, the dried powdered leaves OF
rock clover being thoroughly mixed
with the ground curd. The small
grayish green cone-shaped cheeses are
exported in large numbers and are a
familiar sight in large markets.

NOTES..

Tomato plants should be trans
planted once or twice before being set
in the field. The safe rule for setting
along the latitude of Boston is June
10, but they may be set little earlier
in ordinary seasons if the grower is
prepared to run a little risk, or to
protect his plants with old crates or
straw when frost is threatened. Deep
soil thoroughly worked and literally
MANFRED will suit tomatoes. Guilt
walton should be thorough and no
weeds allowed to grow. Some kinds
need the support of trellis or a mulch
of straw to keep the fruit off the
ground, and prevent rotting, but the
stocly kinds, like Dwarf Champion,
need no support. When transplanted,
the tomato should be at least two
inches high, but should not be so far
forward as to be in blossom.
Ounces, peaches, pears and apples,
whether early or late, need the most
careful gathering and handling to Sc
cure good results. Gather when ripe,
we'll colored but while they are still
firm, not soft. Select good, large
fruits of even size, characteristic of
the variety, without worms or other
blemishes, without bruising or
bruises, in fact, as near perfect speci-
mems as possible. Mark the variety,
then wrap first in tissue paper, then
in wax paper then pack in baskets, and
put up in the four-basket Or six-basket
crates, or in single-layer boxes, with
all the spaces filled with paper so that

Separating Machines in the Dairy.

The warmer the milk the more
fluid it is. 1t is a rule adopted by all
creamery men in operating power
separating machines that the milk
must be separated at a temperature
above 85 degrees, Fahrenheit. Cold
milk is more viscous, or less fluid,
than warm, and the cream will not sep
arate SO readily If this is true of
power machines, where everything
runs more uniformly than is possible
with hand machine, it is certainly
true of the hand machine. 1t is one
of the stock arguments of some sep
arator agents that their machines will
skim cold milk. Probably the state
ment is true. If so, it shows a wide
range Of adaptability for the machine
and that it is so built that it is diff
ficult to clog up. Take the argu-
ment for what it is worth, but do not
skim cold milk unless you expect to
leave some butter fat in the skim milk.
The milk should be separated as quick
ly as possible after milling; then the
skimming will be cleanest, the skim
milk will. be best for the calves, and
the cream will keep better.

nail an entrance guard of perforated
zinc on the hive entrance; this. keeps
out both queen and drones. Next,
place board from the entrance to the
ground in slanting position and you
are ready for business. Open the hive
containing the bees and take the
frames out, one at a time Cooking
over both sides as you do so for the
queen), jar the bees with sudden
shake of the frame between the hands,
On the board, the few bees that are
not dislodged can be got off with a
good flexible brush and the frame
placed in the prepared hive. When all
of the frames have been thus treated
take the hive and bottom board, to
which there will be good many adj
herring bees, and brush them all down
among the others. In an hour or so
the bees will nearly all have gone to
their brood again, and the queen Will
be found outside of the metal, when
she can be disposed of as desired.
