Occasionally a good man grows
dissatisfied with Kansas" says the
Seneca Tribune. ssThe milk is too
yellow or the honey too sweet. and he
doesn'b like them to flow over his
land anyway So he parts with his
farm, sells his live stock and other
things too numerous to mention, and
moves to Oklahoma. There he takes
his good Kansas money and buys a
farm which today is and tomorrow is
not, because the wind has blown it
away. Or he tries Colorado and
slashes around in the mud irrigating
a strip of bottom so narrow that a
cow can't jump into the field because
she jumps over it. Then he hears of
Texas and goes down to hHnt the bag
of gold at the rainbow's end

sleep to find that he has wandered

"eooD LUCK FOR DYING TREE,
Horseshoe Thrown on Limb, Horse
Chestnut Thrives as Never Before.

Canton, O.-It was good luck" for
the large horse chestnut tree on the
front lawn of the Chance home, in
North Cleveland avenue, when an old
horseshoe was thrown over one of
the limbs many years ago. The own
er of the tree was not superstitious,
but the late Peter Chance could not
understand why the trees in his yard
were dying.
Mr.. Chance had just cut down one
of the best ones, when its mate, the
horse chestnut, showed symptoms of
the same trouble. One day an old
horseshoe was found in front of the
house and thrown over one of the
lower limbs so that it touched the
main trunk The tree showed signs
of. life. At any rate it did not die,
and to-day it is the best tree on the
lawn. The edges of the horseshoe
can still be seen protruding through
the bark.
A member of the Chance family
said: "Of course, the horseshoe had
nothing to do with the recovery of
the tree, but it was good luck The
shoe has been on for 20 years now"

Dark Poultry Houses.

There are still many dark poultry
houses to be met with in the country.
Some of them are so dark that it is
a wonder that the hens can get along
without becoming diseased. 1t is also
wonder how the floor of such a
house can dry out at all. 1t is not a
difficult matter to knock hole in the
side of poultry house and put in a
window This should be done now
while the weather is good, says the
Farmers Review. The additional light
will prove a great boon to the fowls
which will thrive better because of
the light in their dwelling house.. In
the summer time this matter of light
is not of SO much Importance as it is
in the winter. In the summer the
fowls have the run of the farm and
spend but little time in the poultry
house, but in the winter they have
to spend very large amount of time
there, especially if the location is in
states where snow remains on the
ground during considerable part of
the winter.

a Cheap Drinking Fountain.

A good drinking fountain may be
made of an ordinary red clay pot OF
large size, appended in a saucer or
plate after the pot is filled with water.
The hole in the bottom must, of
course, be stopped up. A cork will
serve the purpose, provided the hole
be first reamed out to make the cork
fit snugly, so that it may be air tight.
The roaming can be done with any
suitable instrument at hand-a pair
of scissors with the blades closed
will do. One or two notches should
be filed or sawed in the rim Of the
pot, not quite as deep as the plate. II
deeper than the plate the water will
run out of the pot Immediately, in
stead of keeping the plate full for the
chickens to drink from.
The arrangement is said to be SUI
perior to regular crockery drinking
fountains, because the red clay, being
unglazed, is slightly porous, and the
air blowing on it keeps the water cool
if the pot is set in a shady place.

TRANSFERRING BEES.
Easily Done by Inverting Hive and
Driving Up Into Empty Box.

There are at least three ways of
transferring bees from box hives. The
old method is to pry open the old
hives with cold chisel and hammer,
cut out the combs and fit them into
the movable frames, fastening them in
with sticks and strings. After trying
this method on several colonies, /
must pronounce it a messy, sticky
job.
A much better way is to drive them
out by the following plan. Take the
hive to be transferred under a tree
or in the shade of a building and turn
it bottom up. Place on top of it an
empty box of the same size, blow in a
little smoke at the bottom. occasional.
ly and drum on the old hive with a
couple of sticks for 10 or Is minutes.
Nearly all bees and queen will go
up into the empty box.
In the meantime place the hive in
which you wish to put the bees on the
stand where the old hive stood so the
field bees that will be coming in all
the time have place to go. They will
ing what to make of it. Then carry
the box of bees and dump them in
front of the new hive and they will
soon run in and make themselves at
home.
Stand the old hive in a new location
and drum on it again in 81 days, hav.
ing an empty box above it as at first
Put these young bees in new hive
or add them to the old colony as you
prefer. If one desires two colonies
from the one, it is better to let the
old box hive cast a swarm first, then
drum in 21 days and the one drum
ming will be all that is necessary.
Still another way which is better
and less work than either of the above
methods, if one wishes to keep the
whole force together and get the
most money from them, says Farm
and Home, is to take movable
frame hive full of empty combs, a
week or two before swarming time.
Place it under a box hive, closing
the entrance of the top hive and
compel the bees to go through the
new ones. When honey begins to
come in fast, the bees will crowd the
queen into the lower hive, always
storing their honey above the brood.
When the queen is laying nicely in
the under hive, put queen excluder
between the two hives, and soon all
the brood will be Matched out above
and the combs will be filled with
honey. 1t can then be taken off and
the combs cut out, the honey extract
ed and the old combs rendered into
wax. l find this the most satisfac-
tory way of all, getting more honey
and wax and keeping down increase.

WHERE THE TROUBLE LAY.
Disappointed Mans Explanation fer
His Lateness.

The other afternoon man rushed
into the Reading terminal, galloped
up the stairs and dashed for the train
shed just as the gates were closed
against him, says the Philadelphia
Telegraph.
He looked as if he wanted to swear
most vociferously, but he was out of
wind, and all that he could do was to
lean against the fence and soulfully
sigh. 1t was then that the grinful id.
lot, who is always on hand, paced over
and butted in.
Did you miss your train, old boy?"
he queried, with a smiling glance at
the painting one.
NO. was the grouchy rejoinder, Il
chase myself up here that way every
five minutes to see them shut the
gates"
What made you so late?" queried
the other, not at all abashed. rs your
watch out of order?"
mo, my watch is all to the good, !"
replied the man who missed the train
.but l think that my feet are about
two minutes slow"
