snrina Care Of Bees.

Tha most critical time of the year
for the beekeeper is after the bees
have been brought out of winter quar-
tiers. From the time they are set out
until settled warm weather great care
must be exercised in attending to
their wants if bees are to secure good
crop of honey. This is the season
when bees are least able to care for
themselves. 1t must be borne in mind
that they are all on the shady side"
of life. and that their vitality has been
greatly impaired by their long confine-
ment to the hive, SO that they are not
in condition to endure much hardship
without serious loss, and the losa of
one bee in spring is equal to three or
four later in the season.
When the colonies are put on the
summer stands see that they have
enough honey on hand to last at least
two weeks and be careful that there
are no cracks or openings for the warm
air to escape them. Contract the en-
trance of hives down to two inches, or
to suit the size of the colony. In case
of very weak colonies it may be we'll
to give an entrance of not more than
a bee space, to exclude robbers.
Bees consume honey very fast-in the

Relative Value of Meals.

AS to the relative feeding value OF
cottonseed meal at $25 per ton and Oil
meal at $50, it depends very much on
what it is to be fed with, and whether
the feeder has hogs to follow his cat
tie. If he is feeding corn alone, ne
can get flesh formers considerably
cheaper from the cottonseed meal ev-
en- at the same price, than he can from
the oil meal. Cottonseed meal at the
rate of three or four pounds per day
can. safely be fed to cattle, even II
there are hogs to follow. Cottonseed
meal fed exclusively, or more than
three or four pounds per day, is likely
in time to have some bad effects on the
cattle and most certainly on hogs. In
short cottonseed meal is richer In pro-
tein than oil meal. Oil meal, however.
is the most palatable and safest. There
appears to be quite difference In the
different brands of cottonseed meal.
depending on the locality in which it
is grown. The meal from cotton grown
in the western part of Texas is not as
valuable as the meal from cotton
grown in the central portion of the
cotton belt.

PAUL MORTON ON LIFE INSURANCE.

An important feature In the April
number of the North American Review
is q discussion of life insurance ques-
tions by Paul Morton. president of the
Equitable Life Assurance Society, and
ID. f. Kingsley, vice. president of the
New York Life Insurance Company, in
which they give their views as to what
is to be aimed at and what avoided in
life insurance legislation. Mr. Morton
devotes special attention to the steps
which must be taken to protect the
policyholders, while MIR. Kingsley
pleads for safeguarding of the COM
panies, arguing that some of the meas
ures recommended by the Armstrong
committee would be disastrous to the
companies and therefore. to the policy
holders. Mr.. Morton concludes:
SIN conclusion, let me say that 1t Is
my firm belief that, from this time on,
1t will be the honest endeavor of the
officers and directors of all the reputa-
BILE companies in New York to conduct
their affairs in such a manner as to
merit the appreciation of every citizen
of the state | know of no opposition
to wise legislation. The courage and
sincerity and thoroughness with which
the legislative committee has conduct
ed its investigation deserve the high
est commentator and all that i, or any
other conscientious life insurance man
ager can ask is that the laws to be
enacted shall be reasonable and bene-
fetal, and that policyholders shall be
protected and not injured And tina
point which demands most emphasis
in this connection is that, IL the life
insurance companies are injured, even
inadvertently, the policyholders are
the ones who will be damaged there's
by"
Mr. Kingsley finds in the result of
the recent investigation proof of the
strength Of the companies:
"1,here is a very sure and simple way
to arrive at the conclusion that the
business of life insurance, as practis-
ed by our great companies, has been,
on the whole, honestly managed. Each
of the three companies most under
criticism of late, has been submitted.
not only to this legislative inquisftion,
but. in addition, to all sorts and varie-
ties Of examinations by the state, by
groups of states, and by chartered and
certified accountants of known reputa-
ton. Out Of this whirlwind of inquiry
the companies have emerged abund-
antly solvent, and abundantly able to
carry out every contract on their
books This condition Is fact that
any one can verify. 1t shows conclu-
sively that the presentation made be-
fore the Armstrong committee of err
rors and faults and wrong-doing prov
en-, did not reach to the body of any
one Of the companies. Having passed
thru this fiery ordeal, and having
shown itself to be thoroughly sound, 1t
is not strange that life insurance now
stands somewhat appalled, at the sug-
gestion that the laws of the state
should be so amended that the business
will be seriously crippled, its working
destroyed and an asset
Of great value to the policyholders ar
diSsipated."
