ing it introduced from the Caucasus
This Caucasian bee is not inclined to
sting, and may be handled at all times
without resort to the protection of the
bee veil or the smoke pot. Expert.
ments were made to test the temper of
the new bee by giving the hive con-
tanning them half dozen severe kicks
and then when they were well stirred
up, by taking out several racks of the
bees, handling them carelessly and
making no effort TO keep them from
alighting on the hands or face.
Scooping Them Up by Handfuls.
They were even scooped up by the
handfuls and poured back on the rack.
The operator was not even stung once,
and all through the experiments the
honey-givers retained the amiability
which has made them famous at the
Department.
While bee raising is carried on sue
cessfully in the small towns in the
country, few persons know that the
city is well adapted to limited ex-
tent, to this interesting industry. The
city of Washington is an example of
this, bees located there doing better

OF the races already in general
cultivation, the Carnolans are the gen

plotted by the Department is the most
amlable honey-giving insect of all,
and is practically stingless, although
he has a sting. This bee is the dis
covery of Mr.. Frank Benton, the
Apiarist Of the Department Of Agri-
culture, who was instrumental in hav-

Government Apiarist Bee Foraging.
Mr.. Benton has just departed on a
tour of the globe hunting for desirable
types of honey-makers. He will make
q collection of the Caucasian bee, but
perhaps the most interesting feature
of his trip will be his visit to India
and the Philippine Islands for the pur-
pose of securing the giant bee of those
countries. This bee has never been
subjected to domestication, and its arti-
fetal culture is unknown. 1t is very
much larger than any of the bees now
being raised in apiaries, and the length
of it's tongue enables it to reach the
sweets Of many hOney-laden flowers
and plants which our own kinds can
not gather.

perts comes as thing long looked for
and greatly to be desired. They have
had dreams Of bees that could be
handled without gloves or masks,
without smudge or smoke, and with as
little regard of stings as though they
were handling but common flies. 1t is
true that some bees are more amiable
than others, and with many persons
where care is not taken TO avoid all
stings the system eventually becomes
accustomed to the poison, so that be-
yond momentary pain sting causes
little or no Inconvenience.

Under Martin Roherback's tattered
blouse there beat a sturdy, patriotic
heart that knew no: the meaning OF
fear, and had known not the meaning
OF love until the Continenta! army
marched into PhilaGe!phia in the fall
| of 1777. 1t was in Philadelphia that
Martin met Beccy Sharp. a demure lit
tie Quaker lass, who returned Martin s
ardent New Amsterdam affection, even
though she could not bring herself to
approve fully of the uniform he wore
when that uniform meant the she'd
ding of mems blood.
So long as Lord Howe left the Con-
! tinental troops in possession of Phlla-
delphia Martin cared not whether the
war waged elsewhere or not SO long
as he was free to go and come between
Beccy's house and tie camp he was
entirely satisfied with his lot, nor did
| he mind the little lectures he received
| from her on the evils of war and the
| virtues of brotherly lCve. He was con-
! tent to be soldier Under such condi-
! tiOns, even though his being one
served no better purpose than the Civ
ing of Beccy something to lecture him
about, for it was great pleasure TO
| hear Beccy talk.
But Lord Howe was not content that
| the Continental army should enjoy the
comforts OF city life. Philadelphia Of
fered opportunities as a winter resort
which he coveted and Washingtcn's
| tattered army not being strong enough

Deep down in his heart Martin re-
| belled at such necessity, but there
was nothing to do but go, and 60 he

so bad for Valley Forge is but IA miles

much of walk. He did not remem-
ber the double line OF sentries between
himself and Beccy, or If he did he
