ENTRANCE TO THE BEEHIVE
It Should Be Large Enough to Allow
Ventilation and Plenty of
elbow" Space.

Common opinion holds that the low
er part of the hive is the proper place
for the entrance as it protects the
brood nest and at the same time gives
the bees better chance to clean their
hive of Gaping refuse and dead bees
and to keep their house in general or
der. Some argue that the entrance
should be near the top of the hive, thus
giving bees short cut to the combs,
but on the other hand you are giving
the cold air chance to get to brood
cluster, and this will bring about bad
results. The size of the entrance
should be ample and not too small
During the rush of the honey season
the writer uses space SKIS inches, and
during very warm weather raises hives
one-quarter inch in front by means of
wedges. This allows ventilation and
plenty Of space for all requirements
during warm spring days. When rob-
bers are apt to cause trouble close up
the entrance, allowing only about
enough space for two bees to enter at
cnce. OF course your strong swarms
will take care of themselves, but by
doing this with your light ones you
will save much trouble.-G. H. Towns

wide by six feet long. The hopper was
placed up at the head of the granary
stairway with the screens underneath
in such manner that when the
cracked corn is allowed to run slowly
from the hopper it grades nicely into
three sizes of cracked corn, besides the
fine meal, which would go to waste if
scattered on the ground for the poultry,
and anyone would be surprised at the
amount of this meal saved even from
the. best sifted cracked corn. The size
of screens may be arranged to suit each
user. l use No. for top or coarsest
as want it as coarse as possible for
pigeons; No. 6 for second, and No. -
for nest. These sizes if set at an angle
that the corn will run down nicely
without requiring any shaking to pre-
vent lodging, will give nice grades of
cracked corn. The more upright the
grader is placed the more fine will be
left in the coarser grades, and the less
thoroughly will it be sifted This has
saved me many times it's cost in the
meal saved alone, aside from the con-
venience of having the size cracked
wanted for the different birds. At times
when feeding largely on cracked corn
l have saved enough meal to feed two
cows.-Rural New Yorker.

WHEN YOV GO TO THE WORLD'SFAIR
Suggestions That Should Be Helpful to the Strang
in ST. Louis--No Trouble When You Get Your Bear
inss-The Greatest of Worlds Expositions.

It will be worth all the se1f-denial
that one may practice for several years
to see the Worlds Fair of 1904 at st.
Louis. Money saved, earned or Dor
rowed cannot be better spent than in
getting acquainted with the worlds
progress as revealed at this latest and
greatest of expositions. All of us can
not travel around the world to take
note of what the nations are doing,
but the nations from, all around the
world desire us to know and have sent
their best works to St. Louis to be
placed on display.
Within the two square miles of the
Louisiana Purchase exposition at st.
Louis there is more to be seen than
ever was brought together in ten times
the space before. 1t is a great collec-
ton of expositions massed into one. 1t
is nearly twice as large as the Colum-
bian exposition at Chicago, nearly ten
times larger than the Pan-American
exposition at Buffalo. Every exhibit
palace offers the equivalent of splen-
did exposition, each covering many
acres OF space.
The largest of these is the Palace of
Agriculture, with it's % acres under
roof and filled to the doors with the
most wonderful agricultural collection
ever assembled upon any occasion.
The important states and nations of
he world are all here alongside great
numbers of individual exhibitors. Five
great staples have been chosen for ex-
traordinary display. Corn, cotton,
sugar, rice and tobacco are here ar
rayed as they have never been before
and undreamed possibilities are re-
vealed to inquiring minds. Such dairy
display was never attempted and such
a collection Of farm machinery and
tools was never placed on exhibition.
The Palace of Transportation is next

The United States Government
building is on broad terrace half way
up the hill in the extreme eastern part
of the grounds. Uncle Sam never had
such a large exhibit building at an ex-
position before. 1t is nearly 800 feet
long and ESQ feet wide. Another build
ing devoted to fisheries built in the
style of an old Roman house stands
upon lower ground directly southwest
from the larger building. The outdoor
display of ordnance is not the least in
teresting of the government exhibits.
The Palace of Art at the Worlds Fair
contains 1875 galleries. Each gallery
is large room, lighted from above
and filled with the choicest works.
All countries of the world in which art
has made noteworthy progress are rep
resented. The group of buildings
which house this magnificent display
represents an expenditure of more than
100000. The group is situated upon
high ground south of Festival hall.
The Festival hall is the center piece OF
a rich architectural work browning the
hill which rises above the Grand Basin
and upon whose slopes are the Cascades
and gardens. Here another million
dollars has been expended to produce
a decoration that will distinguish this
exposition from all others.
In a short article such as this one
can only refer to such great features as
the Philippine exhibit, covering 40
acres and containing more than 1000
natives from those far-off Pacific is
lands; the United States government
Indian exhibit, covering many acres
and occupying large building; the ex-
hibit of the United States bureau OF
plant industry, consisting of an out
door map of the United States, cover

A chick that becomes stunted seldom

Chicks should never be kept on
board floors. Such floors should be
well covered with dry earth and litter.

should get his chicks well under way

Well-kept, well-ventilated and thor

the airship and balloon contests, hav-
ing prizes aggregating 100000 will take
place; the anthropology exhibit; the

exhibits of the departments of agri-

many acres; the Palace of Horticulture.
400 by 300 feet, containing the largest

together; the beautiful Temple of Fra
ternity; the magnificent buildings
erected by foreign nations; the great
Inside inn, where 5000 guests may find
accommodation at rates from $3.50 to
$500 per day; the extensive live stock
pavilion; the great landscape clock
made of flowers, 112 feet in diameter,
and giving the correct time of day;
the intramural railway, which gives a
seven-mile ride for single fare, and
many other things of interest to Wis
itors.
Even to the timid traveller St. Louis
presents no complications. 1t is all as
plain as b when once you get your
bearings. The streets all run east and
west or north and south with rarely a
confusing diagonal. Market street and
its western extension, Laclede avenue,
are the dividing line which separates
the city. All streets north and south
from Market begin their numbering at
Market, so that No. 2024 South Broad
way, for example, would be 20 blocks
south from Market street All east and
west streets begin their numbers at the
Mississippi river, so that No. 1920 would
be 81 blocks west of the river. Some
times in long block 200 numbers are
allowed.
All trains into St. Louis arrive at
Union station, one of the finest rail-
road terminalsin the world. The sta
ton is on the south side of Market
street between Eighteenth and Twenti-
eth streets, So that when the visitor
emerges from the station he finds him
self at the beginning of the city num-
bering both north and south and IS
blocks from the river.
Standing on Market street with his
back to the station the downtown or
main business section of the city is to
his right about one mile. The Worlds
Fair is to his left, westward about five
miles. ALI the street ears are so Ia
beled that he may easily know which
cars to take. Cars running north on
Eighteenth street, at his right, intersect
the several car lines running between
the Worlds Fair and the business Sec
ton of the city. BY walking one, two
or three blocks to the north the Wis
itor may get car east or west, or If
baggage laden ne may take a car on
Eighteenth street and get transfer
without extra fare to any of the east
and-west lines except the Suburban,
which is a separate car system.

In size, covering Is acres. One may
only hint at the wonders it contains.
The historical exhibit of locomotives is
one of the features. 1t shows the de-
velopment of Is years in locomotive
construction. Strange indeed is the
person who is not yet impressed with
these evidences of mans long struggle
with the problem of rail transportation,
the most civilizing of modern inf1u-
ences, next to the newspaper, which
must always stand first. To describe in
detail this exhibit would be long story
in itself. The exhibit is made COM
plete by the installation of the largest
locomotive ever built and by some
magnificent imported locomotives. We
cannot leave the Palace of Transporta-
ton without a reference to the great
automobile show, the motor boats and
other water craft, and the great car
riage display.
Now let us cross the flower gardens
to the Palace of Machinery just south
Of Transportation. The huge power
generators are the first things to arrest
the eye-the Allis-Chalmers engine of
5,000-horse power, the Curtis steam tur-
bine Of S000-horse power, the Parsons
steam turbine of 5000 kilowatts, the
four Westinghouse generators of 5000
horse power each. and each as high as
a house. And then other generators
great and small of all kinds-the most
wonderful display of engines ever as
sembled. But these are not all. Think
Of ten acres of glistening machines of
every kind and you have some idea of
the. contents of the Palace of Machin-
cry.
We cross the lagoon to the eastward
and come to the beautiful Palace of
Electricity, with eight acres of exhib-
it's from many countries which show
the marvellous development of cleo
trical science. To the north again over
one of the arched bridges we approach
the Palace of Varied Industries, view
ing its wonderful grace and splendor
as we 60. Here are IA acres of ex-
hibits from all over the world. The
Palace of Manufactures is the same
size and stands on the opposite side of
the Plaza of St. Louis. 1t is equally
interesting in the variety and newness
of its contents. Here again the nations
of the world and the manufacturers
from all parts of the United States dis
play their best products.
Opposite the Palace of Manufacture
to the southwark is the Palace of Edu-
cation, this being the first time that
education has been allotted a great
building all it's own. A variety of
schools in daily session are the feature
of this eight-acre display. The two ex-
hibit buildings in the eastern part of
the main group are Mines and Metal
lurgy and Liberal Arts. The Depart
ment of Mines and Metallurgy has a
12-aere outdoor display in addition to
the nine acres under roof.

HAS A SAY.
The School Principal Talks About
Food.

The Principal of a High School in
a fiourjshing Calf. city says:
For % years l worked in the school
with only short summer vacations. l
formed the habit of eating rapidly,
masticated poorly which coupled with
my sedentary work led to indigestion,
liver trouble, lame back and rheuma-
tism.
Upon consulting physicians some
doped me with drugs, while others pre-
scribed dieting and sometimes / got
temporary relief, other times not. For
IL years I struggled along with this
handicap to my work, seldom laid up
but often a burden to myself with
lameness and rheumatic pains.
1.-TWO years ago l met an old frieid,
a physician who noticed at once my
out-of-health condition and who pre-
scribed for me an exclusive diet of
Grape-Nuts, milk and fruit. ~
Il followed his instructions and in
two months felt like new man with
no more headaches, rheumatism or
liver trouble and from that time to
this Grape-Nuts has been my main
food for morning and evening meals,
am stronger and healthier than I have
been for years without a trace Of the
old troubles.
Judging from my present vigorous
physical and mental state I tell my
people Methuselah may yet have to
take second place among the old men,
for feel like I will live a great many
more years. ....
''To all this remarkable change in
health am indebted to my wise friend
and Grape-Nuts and hope the Postum
Co. will continue to manufacture this
life and health giving food for several
centuries yet, until I move to a world
where indigestion is unknown" Name

Economy In Threshine.

The fact that there is more grain put into
the straw stack than there should be, is
something that merits the earnest attention
of the up to-date farmer.
Is it not possible to save the wastage OF
grain and time which attends the use of old
style machinery? This is something that
should command the careful consideration
of every farmer.
In line with the thought we call attention
to the ad. of Nichols & Shepard Company,
Battle Greek, Michigan, found in another
column.
It would seem that the time has come
when this great channel of wastage on the
farm should be eliminated.
