WHERE TO STORE HONEY.
DRY An the Time and where
IL Never Freeses.

There seems to be Q good deal Of
misinformation regarding the proper
place to keep honey after It has been
taken from the hives. Bee-keepers
generally know how to preserve 1t in
order to maintain its fine quality. but
. great many people who buy It for
home use, and even grocerymen who
handle 1t in considerable quantities,
fail to keep 1t at its best. Some peo-
pie think because cellar is recon-
mended for wintering bees 1t must be
an ideal place to keep honey. l have
found others, supposing cool place
to be desirable. keeping It in an Ice
box, says writer in Northwestern Ag-
riculturist. Neither of these is suita-
BILE, unless one has a furnace in the
cellar and therefore 1t is both warm
and dry: an ice-box. never.
Honey absorbs moisture. and II kept
long in cool, damp place 1t will be-
come thin and watery and lose its orig.
inal flavor. II may not spoil 1t to freeze
If the air surrounding is perfectly dry
but damp cold is Injurious II the
honey gathers damipness and then
freezes, the combs will crack and the
honey run down the outside. and |,
never looks or tastes quite so nice as
1t did before.
An ideal place to keep honey iswhert
1t is dry all the time and never freezes
The kitchen, a warm room over the
kitchen, or the attic is the best place
I know Of without preparing a specia
place warmed artificially. Perhaps Il
is not necessary to hint that mice mus
be excluded. Extracted honey. too
needs to be kept m a warm, dry place
unless It is in sealed cans completely
excluding the air. One reason why
more honey is not used is because Sc
few persons know how to keep II in al

POULTRY YARD POINTERS.

Gather up the charcoal from that old
brush pile and throw It into the poul-
try yard or into the scratching shed.
A paddock costs little and may help
to save much. Poultry meat Is worth
money now. Lock the doors or unchain
the dog.
Happy is the poultry keeper who has
dry earth. sifted coal ashes and litter
with which to keep his hennery sweet
and dry for the next six weeks.
A smooth milestone grinds no grist
and smooth gravel will not grind grain
in the gizzard- of fowl. Furnish your
birds gritty grit and plenty of it.
Either eggs are being used more
largely or the American hen is not
doing her duty. At any rate eggs are
wanted and they bring spot cash.
Contagion frequently comes through
drinking vessels. Clean out and scald
them often and do not allow diseased
birds to drink with the rest of the
flock.
Better have the whole side of the
house open than a crack or a knothole
in the wall, through which the wind
can blow on the head Of fowl on a
perch.
One can learn much by carefully OBJ
serving brooder chicks. Use ears and
eyes; their motions and their cries are
significant Of pain or pleasure. The
person who has not the gumption to
learn their language cannot succeed,
no matter how much he may read on
the subject.-Farm Journal.

line with where you want to stretch the

sickle guard of binder or mower; hook
the guard (Which fits just right over the

FACTORY RUN BY WIND.
Air Motors supply Power to Two
Plants In Germany for Generating
Electricity for Lighting.

For more than two years two small
factories, one near Leipsic, the other
near Hamburg, have been driven sue
cessfully by windmills, which are also
used as a means of generating elec-
tricity for lighting purposes, says the
Observation-Disclosures Anzeiger.
The windmills have diameter OF
about Is feet and are mounted on the
roof of the works.
To insure reliability, the wind wheel
itself has no moving parts, the speed
regulation being obtained by turning
the windmill so as to vary the angle
under which the wind impinges upon
the sails, which are built Of steel sheets
This is performed by small auxiliary
wind motor. and is said to be done so
quickly and accurately that the voltage
OF the dynamo remains practically
constant throughout the range of Or
dinary wind pressures.
An automatic switch cuts out the bat
terry connected in parallel with the dy-
namo as soon as the wind falls below a
certain point.

Horse breeding. when judiciously car
cried on. has always been and is likely
to be reasonably profitable business
for the American farmer. The great
danger in the business is that at the
present time. owing to the fact that
horses are scarce. the horse Of no par
ticular breed or class Is commanding a
fair price. and many farmers are led to
regard q horse Of this kind as protita-
BILE animal to produce. Such horses
should not be bred, because, even when
the greatest care and precaution possi-
BILE are taken In breeding for definite
types. there will always be large, num-
ber Of the so-called misfits, which. are
the first class Of horses to be affected BY
overproduction or any other thing that

market.--Rural World.
