Gleanings, in Bee Culture, is made up

that can be obtained at any drug store.
perhaps ~ inches long, and a short
length of one-half inch rubber tubing
just right to slip over the glass tube.
The other end of the rubber tubing is
plugged up. The glass tube is bent in
an alcohol flame, the end brought down
to small orifce. This any druggist
can do for you if you will show him the
illustration. To operate, squeeze the
rubber tube in the hand while the glass
tube is immersed in a pan of hot wax
Release the pressure on the globe, when
the wax will flow up into the glass
tube. Next draw the open end Of the
tube along the edge of foundation
where it comes in contact with the top
bar While drawing the tube, increase
the pressure on the rubber handle, fore
ing the hot wax out in fine stream.
This principle is all right, but we do
not find it as convenient to handle as
our regular Van Deusan fastener,with
an orifice in the handle that regulates
perfectly the flow of wax. l might say
that within II months we had made
a change in the Van Deusen method Of
manipulation. The hole for the air
vent is put in the handle, so that there
is no danger Of burning the fingers, and
the tube is made of drawn Brass This
is cheaper to make (sells about thesame
price,, and in our experience it gives
more even flow of wax. The Griffen
tool. above shown, requires uniformly
increasing pressure on the rubbefshan-
die, otherwise the wax will not run out.

In June last we cut bee tree. The
bees, though considerably scattered
about by the tree breaking when it
struck the ground, were hived and at
once went to work. When we went
after them, however, the hive was
empty. In passing the spot four
months later we noticed been flying,

MAKING sPou TR Y PAY. \
Take Pains TO Raise Just What Your
Most Convenient Market Seems
to Require.

There 10 one thing of as great i'm
portance In the business OF rearing
poultry as the feeding, breeding and
management Of. the flock. 1t is the
business Of finding good market and
preparing the fowls for that market.
1t is true, that anything that is we'll
raised Is half sold. But to say that
anything Is half sold is only halt
enough. We should be able to say
that our stock is we'll fed, properly
fitted and we'll sold. When we are
able to reach this stage of the game
then we are in q position to state
what the possibilities OF the business
are. ~
1t will be necessary to the market
10 be found for poultry supplies to know
what the demand is for certain kinds.
1t will pay to cater to the demands Of
that market whatever they may be.
Remember that desirable goods always
sell the easiest. When market prices
are ruling low it is the best that OBJ
tains fair prices while the culs are
held over. When prices are ruling
firm it is the best that brings a top
price.
This is not q matter of theory to
be written on paper and to be read
so as to enthuse people, says the In
land Poultry Journal; but it is to be
put into practice and the persons who
put it into practice the soonest wilt
be the ones to make the business q
success. In every market there are
those who follow out these lines and
the poultry buyers know them and
their goods are always satisfactory
and in demand. When poultry is to
be taken to market it is selected and
only one grade is marketed at time.
and that grade is in demand when it
is marketed. The undesirable stuff is
never put on the market, and the deal
er is of the opinion that there is moth
ing of this kind on the premises. Culls
and old ROSTERS are disposed of IN
some other way, even il they have
to be given away.
Let markets be studied as much as
how TO rear poultry. This is a matter
that has more Importance attached to
it than is given credit. Study the
market and try to meet it. 1t is an
uphill business to try to make a
market.

Good Drinking Fount.

A good drinking fount for little
chicks is made by filing a shallow
crock or pan with pebbles about the
size of hickory nuts or as large as
walnuts, and then filling with water.
The chicks can drink between the
pebbles, but cannot get wet or drown.
The vessels should be scalded out two
or three times a week.-Commercial

Catching Kingish in Winter.

During the last few years there has
been no phase of local fishing more to be
depended upon than the annual winter
run of these limitation yelowfins," and
rodsters have, therefore, come to regard
them as an annual fixture, due to appear
any time between the middle Of Decem-
Der and New Years. Last winter the
first big catches were made about Christ
mas, when Harry Slotterbeck and other
experts caught several hundred good
sized kingfsh in San Pedro bay, and this
season, punctual as the clock, the run
has returned.
Klnghsh are not the most delicate of
local marine products. nor are they wOr-
thy representatives of the croaker tribe
as fighters when on the hook, but they
have good points, and not the least of
these is their almost incredible yoracity,
which often enables the verieSt tyro to
catch them three at a time.
Taken in winter, when their flesh is
fairly firm, cleaned as soon as possible
after removal from the water and care
fully laid away out of the sun and
wrapped in damp cloths, kingfsh are not
to be despised, and those who throw
them away only show wasteful ignorance.
Their popularity with sportsmen was at
tested last winter by the greatest con-
course of rod and reel men that ever
crowded the lumber wharves of San Pc
dro.
Together with he kingfish invariably
come the pOmpanO. These sweet and
delicate little creatures are usually pre-
ceded from one to two weeks by their
coarser companions, the kingfsh, but the
presence of either one in the seacoast
bays is proof positive that the other va
riety is not far off at the time.-Los An

FLIGHTS of the Albatross.

OF all the strange creatures seen by
travellers not the least interesting is the
wandering albatrosS, The great, feath-
cred Wandercr, sometimes measuring
II feet from tip to tip of his wings, will
follow q ship for several days at a time.
Some travellers and sailors declare that
they have seen a particular bird fly for
weeks at a time without resting. The
albatross has always been a bird of
mystery, and in ancient times the people
believed that these unwearying seabirds
were the companions of the Greek war
rior Diomedes, who were said to have
been changed into birds at the death of
their chief.
Though the superstition about the kill
ing of an albatross bringing bad luck is
only foolish Que, it has served a useful
purpose for many years in preventing
the slaughter of these beautiful and gal
liant birds-the sailors friends and the
landsmen's wonder. Up in dreary
Kamstchatka, that outlying part of ST.
IBERIA which cuts into the North Pacific,
the natives, never having heard of the
superstition about the albatross, catch
him and eat him. But his flesh makes
makes such poor food that, after all, the
lengend may be said to hold good, for
he is indeed IL bad luck who has to
make q meal of it.-Ottawa Free Press.
