In commenting on this letter, the
editor of Gleanings in Bee Culture
says: This embodies a principle of
house-apiary construction that is some
what different from anything hitherto
described in the journals, if l mistake

form of construction of a. building
would be that the outside beeS-those
bees from the yard-could go between
or over the hives into the building, if
I understand the matter properly. The
ordinary house-apiary is convenient
place for the storage of honey and
combs, and these could not be ex-
posed in building of this kind with
out danger of melting robbing.
1t is pretty well settled now that
any form of house-apiary construction
should involve the use of outdoor
hives so that the outdoor bees can be
brought inside, and those inside taken
out. Supers and all other fixtures can
thus be used Interchangeable.
Painting the entrances of the fronts
different colors works very satisfac-
torily. I saw the principle put into
practical application at F. A. Sails
bury's, at Syracuse, N. Y, in the case,

He reported to me at the time that he
had no trouble from losing mating
queens; and as I saw the bees flying
back and forth it was evident to me
that they had no trouble in locating
their entrances. Prior to the use of
these different co1ors Mr.. S. explained
he had had some trouble.

AS the result of a foraging eXpedi-
ton made by the COW Wickman and
Nick Spady, who lives in the adjoin-

The bovine epicure rose early from
her slumbers recently and spied an I'M

invitingly on line in Spady's yard,
close to the fence.
Spady witnessed the disappearance
of the last article. Filled with indig-

called to the scene by the believing

ARREST THE TUBA PLAYER
Gotham Police Mistook One of
Thomas Musicians for a
Practical Joker.

Louis A. Julien was the first con-
ductor who played large orchestra
in New York. One of his pieces was
a "Fireman's Quadrille,' during the
performance of which an alarm of fire
was regularly sounded and a brigade
of firemen appeared in the hall. Theo-
dore Thomas was one of Jullien's VIC
linists for a time, and this may help
to explain why he himself, in 1867.
when he gave his Terrace garden con-
certs in New York, once created a
sensation by making the piccolo play
ers climb up into the trees before the
piece began.
On another occasion in the same
place the tuba player had been sent
behind the audience into the shrub
berry. When he began to play the
police mistook him for a practical
joker who was disturbing the music,
and tried to arrest him.
Il shall never forget the comical
scene" Thomas writes in his Auto
biography, las the poor man fed to-
ward the stage, pursued by the irate
policeman, and trying to get in a note

The thunder crashed above their
heads as they passed under the sacred
arch. AS they entered the church the
lightning played through the tinted
glass of the high windows, and filed
the ilurch with notified light. V1c-
toire beautiful face looked strange in
the spectral atmosphere. Kinross, full
of his guilty plans, pressed forward to
the chancel.
Suddenly there was a stunning crash,
and the very roof tumbled upon their
heads. The two, hand in hand, were
stricken down in their sin, and buried
beneath beam and stone.
The lightning had struck the iron
cramps employed to support the build
ing, and as it few from bar to bar,
smashed the stones which lay between.
The building was a total wreck, and for
three days the bodies lay buried be-
meath it. .
When that of Gerald Kinross was re-
covered, it was deemed best that his
wife should never look upon it, though
it was brought to Hillbome for burial.
But when she saw the long, black
coffin, she raised her hands to her
head-and went mad.
"Harl,' she cried; what is That

Friends fiocked around her, but the
best medical care could not avail to
save her reason. She would cry for
them to hush, and bark, and listen, I'M
til she gave them all the heartache.
Sometimes she would cling to them,
sobbing:
Il was so happy! What does it mean?

They hoped that in the spring a
beneficial change would come. But
when her little babe was laid uDon her
breast she only moaned with pain, and
took no notice of it.

FORAGE FOR HOGS.
Small Farmer Will Find It to His Ad-
vantage to Provide One or More
Crops for Feeding of Swine

The small farmer can i'll afford to
raise hogs without providing one or
more forage crops for them. These
are necessary from an economical as
we'll as sanitary standpoint, as when a
hog has access to plenty of forage it
will thrive better than on an exclusive
grain ration. Among successful for
age crops for hogs | highly regard clo-
yer. cowpeas, soy-beans, sweet potatoes
and Spanish peanuts, writes Godfrey
Winkler, in Midland Farmer. Sorghum
is not to be despised. And as with many
of these crops hogs can do their own
harvesting, it saves labor to some ex-
tent.
In test at the South Carolina expert
ment station four lots of pigs were used.
One lot was fed Spanish peanuts, one
was fed sweet potatoes. one cowpeas
and the remaining lot was fed corn.
The yield of Spanish peanuts was 80
bushels; of sweet potatoes, 200 bushels;
cowpeas, 10 bushels. The amount of the
different feeding stuffs required to pro-
duce one pound Of pork was as follows
Corn, 602 pounds; Spanish peanuts.
4.43 pounds; sweet potatoes, 32.47
pounds. and cowpeas, 4.91 pounds. Now
taking in account the gains made and
the yield of the different crops, and rat
ing pork at so cents per pound, the corn
was Sc per acre. peanuts $24.37, sweet
potatoes $1S.47 and cowpeas $612. The
economy in growing these crops TO. hogs
can readily be seen.

ONCE THERE WAS A MAN

Once there was man who complained
that unworthy men were too frequently
elected to office, relates the Chicago
Tribune.

his hearers.
Il do not" he said.
Then you have no right to kick they
told him. Its the duty of every good
citizen to attend the primaries and see
that the best men are chosen as eandi-
dates"
Whereupon he began attending the pri-
maries.
He worked faithfully for the nominal
tion of sober, honest and reputable can
didates.
But it did no good.
The other fellows turned out in greater
numbers and outvoted him, and bad men
were nominated and elected to office, as
before.
He felt that he had right to kick this
time, and he complained again.

hearers asked him.

Too Much Washed Land.

There is enough land on the farms of
this country that is not productive be-
cause it has not been properly drained
to cause serious consideration. Going
about the country at any time during
the year one sees on almost every farm
low, wet spots that in ordinary years
do not produce anything because they
are too wet to plant anything in the
spring. Such spots are almost without
exception the most fertile spots on the
farm when drained.-Prairie Farmer.

I listen to the Sunday bells
Across the fields afar,
Beyond the din of city and
The roaring Of the car;
And ev'ry echo falling soft,
1T calls me back again
TO shady lanes and sunny meads
OF valley and of plain.
I see the quiet people stroll,
And hear their passing feet,
Again see the little church
That fronts the village street.
The quaint old pews they beckon me,
The pulpit overhead,
And cen the marble stones above
My own beloved dead.
Again in fancy leaning there.
Within the corner pew,
I Jock upon the faces of
The old time friends and true.
I hear the lowly murmurs of
The softly whispered prayer;
Again / see the pastor with
His crown of silver hair.
The lilac bushes laden with
Sweet censers, they distil
Perfume and shower petals on
The shady window sill.
And Oh, the echoes softly fall
On valley and on plain!
And Oh, the bells they call me to
The little church again!

THE IDEAL WIFE
Shapes the Destiny of Men-The Influence of a
Healthy Woman Cannot Be Overestimated.

Seven-eighths of the
men in this world marry
a woman because she is
beautiful in their eyes
because she has the quail
ties which inspire admira-
ton, respect and love.
There is a beauty in
health which is more at
tractive to men than mere
regularity of feature.
The influence of women
glorious in the possession
of perfect physical health
upon men and upon the
civilization of the world
could never be measured.
Because of them men have
attained the very heights
of ambition (: because of
them even thrones have
been established and de-
stroyed.
What a disappointment,
then, to see the fair young
wife's beauty fading away
before a year passes over
her head! A siclkly, half
dead-and-alive woman,
especially when she is
the mother of a family,
is a damper to all joyous
ness in the home, and a
drag upon her husband.

slant illness is a serious
