Bile comb hives this moth amounts to
but little, though it has to be LOOKED
after. The great point about the i'm
proved hive is that it places every
item within reach.
The common black honey bee is
much more easily deprecated upon
than is the Italian. and though the
moth is the worst of the insects from
which it suffers, it is not the only one.
The keeper has to be on the outlook
to be sure OF what he is doing.
The bee moth he should know: ii
not by sight, maybe. at least, from an
acquaintance with the literature on
the subject
The eggs of the bee moth ought to
be recognized readily by those who
have reason to suppose that the insect
is on hand to be dealt with. They
are white, glObular and very small.
The female has what has been re-
ferred to as spy-glass-like oviposi'
tor, and so she is able to put eggs in
all sorts Of crevices about the hive.
Thus the combs get reached, and soon
the eggs hatch. Then the caterpiu,
lars, gray and dirty-looking, and with
brown head. seek the comb. This
furnishes food, and as they feed on it
they throw around themselves the pro-
lection Of silken tube
When this state of case exists in the
old sort of bee hive there is difficult
problem on hand The bees ought
then to be taken from the old hive to
a new one, so that the old one may be
promptly and thoroughly purified.
Get Italian bees. They are seldom
attacked in this way
Bees can be driven as required by
using the smoker.

Feeding Winter Pics.

There was lately a request for a
statement of methods of feeding hay
to pigs in winter, the inquirer stating
that his pigs and hogs would not eat
the hay, only the meal and chop sprin-
killed. upon it. 1t appears that he fed
the hay in its natural state, just as it
came from the NOV. only having some
never eat it we'll that way. They will,
it is true, eat few leaves and heads,
but not the stalks or cOarser parts 1t
is practically wasted when so fed. We
have fed considerable clover in the
last ten years, and know il properly
prepared there is little waste. We
either cut it into short lengths OF an
ordinary cutting box or buy the cut
clover hay that is put up and sold so
largely to poultry men, scald it with
boiling water after it has been mixed
with ground grain, etc. let it cool suf-
ficiently, and feed all the pigs will eat
up clean. Once a day is often enough
to feed the hay ration. In this mash
or slop is the proper way to feed the
ground bone. animal meal. charcoal
and condiments or stock foods that
are given. The scalding or steaming
is the essential part Of making the
palatable to the pigs. II there is a
feed cooker. boiler or other means Of
cooking the hay over night or from
morning until evening. so much the
better The softer and greener the
hay is cooked the better the pigs will
relish it.
For green food beets and apples are
our main crop. A large quantity Of
food can be grown on small piece Of
ground, if rich, and planted to sugar
beets or mangels If small patch Of
newly cleared land is available many
turnips can be grown. These We gen.
orally boil until soft. and mash and
mix with ground grain. Apples are
given in the natural state. l have
frequently put fattening hogs in fair
order on ration of grass and apples,
with little skim milk and buttermilk
These things are beneficial beyond
their nutrient content, in that they aid
digestion and assimilation in a won
derful degree. This is the chief bene-
fit derived from the use of stock foods.
They help keep the animal in shape to
get the benefit from the food given.
1t is very important that growing
pigs and breeding sows should have
sufficient bone and muscle forming
food given to supply the needs Of the
animal. When the ground is covered
with a foot Of snow for two or three
months at time the pig and the
brood sow have a hard time OF it to
get a balanced ration. unless supplied
by the feeder The benefits derived
from a liberal use of bone and animal
meal can hardly be overestimated. It
insures a good growth of bone and
muscle in pigs and a strong. healthy
litter of pigs from each brood sow in
the spring. 1t is much better and
cheaper to feed muscle and bone max.
ing material in this way than in the
slower and more expensive way Of us.

been engaged in this werk\ fol
SO metime, and has been able to
pr oduce lessons in dogs which in

YOUR BOY.

You do not know what is in him.
Bear with him (; be patient; wait.
Feed him; cloth him; love him.
He is a boy, and most boys are
bad. You think him so light
hearted, and fear he is light-head-
ed as we'll. But remember he calls
you father. When he played in
your lap. you fondly hoped he
would some day be a great and
useful a Now that he has
grown larger, and his young blood
drives him into gleeful sport, and
makes him impatient of serious
things-rattling, playful, thought
less-you almost despair. But
don't be snappish and snarlish,
and make him feel that you are
disappointed in him. He is your
boy, and you are to live in him.
He bears your name, and is to send
it on down the stream of time.
He inherits your fortune and fame,

1t cannot be otherwise. A

transmits less of your fame and
loses your name. A boy is more

Another Telling Blast From the
San Francisco Disaster.


Read the following clipping
from one of the st. Louis dailies.
SAN FRANCISCO, May 11:-That
the authorities here have no in
tie ntion of loosening the tight grip
on the reins which have held the
liquor dealers in check since the
city suffered it's great disaster was
made plain today by the empha-
tic declaration of mayor Schmitz.
When asked as to the likelihood of
the saloons being allowed to open
in the near future, the mayor not
only denied that there was a pos
sibility to such action being taken,
but added that he had decided
that all drinking places should be
clio sed forlau indefinite peroid.
He also said: Heattributed the
remarkable absence of crime and
the exceptional which has prevail
ed in the city since the conflagra-
ton to the fact that the edict
against the selling of liquor had
been ripidly enforced. This stand
of the mayor was emphasized this
afternoon, when the board of Po-
lice commissioners met and UNI
amiously endorsed a suggestion
that all saloon licenses not in ex-
istance be revoked. San Fran
cisco is today actually without sa-
looms"

are they closed up when disaster

need all that is good and helpful
in their dire distress. The only
answer is an echo and that still
Invertebrates, why?

not afflicted and never whines, but
is just her sincere honest, helpful
self.
And, finally, that one of the
most beautiful things on earth is
a pure, modist, true young girl,
one who is her fathers pride, her
mothers comfort, her brothor'sin-
spir alton and her sisters ideal.
Be queen of your home. Reign

Life may be full of beauty and
usefulness if one is unselish. Or
dina ry every day life affords so
many opportunities of doing some
good service. A gentle word
spo ken to n who is angry, an
encouraging or sympathetic word
to a Respondent or sad friend, IN
ca Arrest word of warning to any
one who may be in danger of fol-
ly. All these little things are very
helpful. A CHEEKY manner has a
sti mulating effect on others; a
sunny disposition brightens the
home. Everyone has at times
known 1.-THE bracing, stimulating
feeling that comes when looking
into a face which reflects a noble,
pure soul or a brave, strong one.
1t may be the face of a stranger,
but the unconscious influence of
that fine character is not lost on
the passer-by. 1t is a character
which counts in life, noble mo-
tives and highlthoughts which are
worth having. With these pos
sessions and that sweet maidenly
res erve, modesty and delicacy
which go with refinement a girl
will not only be more charming,
but will have an influence over all
her associates.

Let us study the value of the
beautiful. The influence of the
beautiful is largely of a subcon-
scious nature, it is silent, per-
meating and powerful. The min
istry of the beautiful has a REIN
ing effect. A taste for music, for
poretry, pictures, etc., tend to de-
stroy the attraction of the vulgar.
A home of beauty, of taste and
refinement always tends to ele-
vate and ennoble the mind, and
cultivate the spirit of contentment.
Beauty fills the world, as well as
heaven, if we have eyes to see it.
1t is open to all. The rose is as
fragrant, the lily as white and the
hyacinth as delicately blue, when
cultivated by the poor, as by the
jeweled fingers of the wealthy.
