Bees md Smoking.

Many times bees are smoked more
than Is necessary; perhaps, because not
every one knows that during a nectar
flow some honey is lost every time a
hive is opened, says Farming. When
bees are smoked they fill themselves
with honey and if so much smoke is
used that most Of the bees in the hive
at that time take honey, it will be
more than an hour before it is redepos-
ited into the cells and the regular work
resumed. Bees sometimes gather nee
tar enough to make a pound of honey
an hour, so one can see that it would
be quite a loss If every colony in a
fair sized apiary were smoked enough
to interrupt the work for one hour.

Value of n SiIO.

1t Is very important to provide some
means by which the dairy COW can be
supplied with good food at all seasons
OF the year in order that she may yield
milk most economically. Such medium
may be found in the silo which fur
nishes place for the storing of food
in the form of silage. 1t is we'll
known fact that the nearest an ideal
food that can be obtained for the dairy
cow Is good pasture; but for several
months in the year green pasture is
not available. At such times the best
substitute are corn silage and such
roots as mangels and turnips. Corn
yields an average Of twice as much
dry matter per acre as root crops; and
since the latter involve much more la
Dor, and greater expense, silage Is far
more economical.

Permanent TreIIis of Wire.

The scarcity of bean poles forces me
to resort to other means of giving sup
port to my lima beans, says gardener
In Farm and Fireside. At one time
thought we could get around the diff
1iculty by planting the newer bush
limas. The latter however have never
given me more than a fraction Of the
crop that can and do get from my
pole" limas, and now plant the lat
ter exclusively. They are trained to a
post, wire and string trellis.
Posts should be set firmly, and not
too far apart. use galvanized wire
of fair strength and find it good for a
number of years. 1t has to stand quite
a strain, as the load of thrifty vines is
very heavy, and 1, therefore, give as
much support by supplementary stakes

To Ripen Cream,

Cream left to itself will become sour
spontaneously. This Is the result Of
the growth Of Tactic acid bacteria,
which feed upon the milk sugar, and
as a final process convert it into a lac
tic acid. Other forms of bacteria are
always present in cream; some have
little or no effect in the ripening proc
ess, while others, If allowed to de-
velop, produce undesirable and often
obnoxious flavors. To cultivate and de-
velop these wild" germs is called
spontaneous" ripening, and is often at
tended with uncertainty. Good butter
making demands the use of starter"
either homemade or pure culture.
The former should be made of selected
skim milk.

CAPTURE OF A HUGE SHARK.
Monster Thirty Feet Long and
Weighs $4,000 Pounds.

Monster Thirty Feet Long and
Weighs $4,000 Pounds.
Sharks often attain very large size
along the Pacific coast, especially off
the shores of southern California. Very
recently monster shark was captured
by two Italian fishermen in San Pedro
Bay that Is claimed to be the largest
fish Of that kind ever caught in the
world. Beyond doubt it is certainly
one of the largest ever captured any
where.
When drawn out of the water and
killed this sea monster weighed 1400O
pounds. 1t measured from tip to tip
thirty-two feet and the circumference
of the body just forward of the huge
dorsal fin was fifteen feet. Across the
fearful mouth horizontally when open
ed it was two and one-half feet, while
from the tip of the snout to the point
Of the lower jaw it measured three and
One-half feet. The size of the huge
mouth may be judged by the fact that
1t is large enough for two children to
be comfortably seated therein.
The shark became hopelessly enmesh-
ed in some 1900 feet of the fishermen's 8
net The net he speedily tore into
strips, but in the giant creatures efforts
to escape the strings and ropes were
wound many times around its gills and
the shark was held a fast prisoner
Despite its long and frantic struggles
for freedom the shark was finally
stranded and filled with harpoons The
struggle lasted for more than an hour
The monsters stomach was found full
of fish. 1t was engaged in robbing the
net when it became entangled.
So far as here known the largest
shark yet caught was twenty-five feet
long-ten feet shorter than the San
Pedro Bay monster. In capturing the
latter the two fishermen had many mar
row escapes from being snapped up by
/ the creature. 1t made long, savage
and desperate struggle for Its life. The
shark was skinned and stuffed and has
been placed on exhibition. Efforts. IL
Is understood, are being made by the
Smithsonian Institution to secure this
splendid specimen of the shark family.

The first newspaper advertisement
appeared in Great Britain in 1912. In
Greece advertising was done by public

In England was got up by the celebrat-

completion of book called 'The Pyer

The ancient Egyptians, Greeks and

Setting Fence Posts.

Some farmers argue that it is best to
set posts early in the fall, when the
ground is solid. OF course, post care
fully set at any time will remain in its
place, but the fall season is really a
much worse time than in the spring
Digging the hole makes the soil loose
and if done in the fall it has not time
to become compact again. Water fill
tiers down through the loose soil, which
will raise the post little every year
until it throws it out altogether. If
the soil has time to settle it absorbs
less moisture, and after the first year.
If the heaving out has not already be-
gun, it will rarely begin.

DUTIES IN MANcHuRIA.
Why Japan Has Not Permitted Chi

Why Japan Has Not Permitted Chi
nese Custom House at Tairen.
A change has come DER the spirit of
the dream Of those who have been i'm
agining that Japan would close the
gates of commerce on mankind in all
Manchuria, and it begins to be real.
lied that that victorious power is coa-
tending in the time of its triumph for
only the same just and equitable prin.
ciples for which it contended in the
days of Russian domination, says The
New York Tribune. 1t seems to be true
that Japan has not consented to the
establishment of Chinese custom
house at Tairen formerly Talien-W an
and Dalny). But there is no percepti-
Die ground for the assumption that
therefore she means to close that po,
against all commerce but her own. On
the contrary, her real motive is appar-
emily disclosed in the Tokyo correspond
ence of the London Daily Telegraph
namely, to secure a uniform and equit-
able collection of duties at all Man-
churian ports and places of entry, IN
the land frontier as we'll as on the
coast Of the Regents Sword.
A few years ago. it will be remem-
bered, just before the japanese war,
Russia insisted upon keeping the Mar
churian customs service on land In h ar
own control. She was willing that at
Newchwang and Dalny and elsewhere
along the coast Sir Robert Hart's ex-
cellent system should prevail, and she
readily assented to doubling of the
Chinese tariff rates on all sea-borne
commerce. But she strenuously OBJ
jected to any increase of rates on over.
land commerce or to any Chinese con-
troll Of the Manchurian border custom
houses.
There was no secret as to her rea-
sons for this. Practically all Russian
commerce entered China by land, by
way of the Russian railroad from ST.
IBERIA into Manchuria, and if that COM
merce were admitted free of duty, or
under such low duties as Russian Off
cials saw fit to impose, it would have
an enormous advantage over American,
japanese, British and other commerce
which came by sea and had to enter
coast ports and pay the full duties i'm
posed by Chinese law and collected by
Sir Robert Hart's efficient staff.
Now Russia is reported to be at
tempting to maintain that same system.
She controls the railroad running into
Manchuria from Siberia and Europe,
and also from the coast at Vladivostok.
If she could continue to pass her COM
merce into China by those routes free
of duty, she would easily outstrip her
rivals in the Chinese markets. 1t is
to block any such game that Japan has
taken her firm stand at Tairen. She
will permit the establishment of a Chi
nese custom house there just as soon
as Russia permits such custom houses
to be established along the ManchI-
Siberian border wherever Russian rail
roads or other trade routes cross that
border from Russian into Chinese terri
tory. The proposition appears to be
perfectly straightforward and equitable
one, to which it does not seem possible
that Russia can permanently or effec-
lively object.

long as the lines run north and south,
for chat IS the general direction of the
mountain ranges. 1t is another matter
however, when one comes to building a

country is such that a survey must take
a serpentine course to get across the
ridges. 1t was not necessary to use a

cannot be said Of the construction of
a road from Ely to Tonopah, should the
project be carried through. The inter-
