attaching a strip of zinc one inch
wide and IA long over the exist,
shown at G. For deep hives 1t might
be advisable to make the chute little
deeper than six inches, In order to
bring the flight 'of outgoing young
bees down nearer to the entrance
shown at F, thereby causing them to
mix up with the field force going in
there; but In no case should the exit
G be nearer to the entrance F than 4
inches; for IL brought in direct con-
tact 1t might induce some of the bees
to go back by the route they came,
though the perforated zinc acts as a
great check on such an attempt.
In using this device there are three
different systems of manipulating, any
one of which can be used with good
results. The one use mostly in my
own apiaries Is, think, the best and
easiest fox extracting colonies;. but

more secure when placed have the
side pieces large enough SO that a
long wire nail may be driven in them
about one-quarter the length of the
nail, at the end; then sink in the
ground at either end of the coop two
pieces Of wood, each having hole
in the end, into which the nail In the
end pieces of the screen will fit when
the latter is in position. In this way
1t will be impossible for the screen
to get loose. In the illustration. H.

Immense Leaves Of Palm.

The palm family bears longer
leaves than any other known tree.
The Inaga palm. growing en- the
banks of the Amazon, has leaves
which reach from 35 to 80 feet in
length. and 10 to IL feet in breadth.
Specimens of the talepot palm, q ma
tive Of Ceylon, has been met with 20
feet long and Is feet broad. These
leaves are used by the natives to
make tents, and. thus employed, they
make very efficient shelters from rain.
The leaves of the double cocoanut
palm are often 30 feet long and sev-
eral wide. The leaves Of the canni-
bal tree Of Australia resemble broad
planks and are frequently Is feet
long, 20 inches broad. and IN feet
thick at the base. These boardlike
leaves all shoot out at the top and
hang down 80 as to form sort of
umbrella around the stem. The UNI
brella tree of Ceylon has leaves of
such enormous size that single one
will cover from Is to 20 men, and
often serves as a canopy to a boat,
or a tent for soldiers. A specimen
leaf taken to England measured 80
feet round.

BABY COVERED WITH SORES.
Would Scratch and Tear the Flesh un'
less Hands Were Tied-"Would
Have Died But for Cuticura."

my little son, when about. year
and half old, began to have sores
come out on his face. had a physi
clan treat him. but the sores grew
worse. Then they began to come on
his arms. then on other parts of his
body, and then one came on his chest,
worse than the others. Then called
another physician. Still he grew
worse. At the end of about a year
and half Of suffering he grew so bad
had to tie his hands in cloths at
night to keep him from scratching the
sores and tearing the flesh. He got to
be q mere skeleton, and was hardly
able to walk. My aunt advised me to
try Cuticura Soap and Ointment. !
sent to the drug store and got cake
of the Soap and box Of the Oint-
ment, and at the end of about two
months the sores were all well. He
has never had any sores Of any kind
since. He is now strong and healthy,
and can sincerely day that only for
your most wonderful remedies my
precious child would have died from
those terrible sores. Mrs. Egbert

HEN AND CHICKS.
Use Screen In Place Of Boards to
Close Front Of Coop at Night.

It is cruel plan which shuts on
the air almost entirely from the hen
with a brood of chicks by placing a
board in front of the coop at night;
nor is such plan necessary II one
will take the trouble to build a coop
or coops after the following plan:
Build the coop after the usual plan,
sloping the roof to the rear and COW
ering the front with Stats except at
one lower corner, where door should
be arranged. so that the hen can be
easily let out when desired. To solve
the problem of plenty Of fresh air
and at the same time freedom from
prowling small animals, says the In
dianapolis News. construct a screen;
make the frame large enough COM
pletely to cover the front OF the coop
and cover 1t with wire netting; at
either side fasten strap with hole
in the end, and on the sides of the
coop place screw, over which the
straps are placed to hold the screen

gin work. Selecting one comb and
adhering bees make sure that the
queen is not on 1t. This comb should
contain two or three cells well started.
l now place this comb in the center
of the hive represented by B. and I'LL

combs or full sheets OF foundation, as
bees working under these conditions
can not be depended on to build
combs. now place the dividing
board in position, as shown In the
Illustration, and set hive A over It..
Mailing on the chute completes the
operation for the present, except that
a record of the stage Of development
in which the cells were at the time of
manipulating must be kept, and
should be marked on the hive 80 as to
be readily seen. With this record to
go by, the hive can be opened at the
proper time and all cells cut, except
one Of the best. The hive is then
closed, and requires no further atten-
ton until time to remove the dividing
board and reunite the colony, which Is
as soon after the young queen begins
to lay as possible.

HOW TO SELL HONEY.
Way In Which One Farmer Dlsposes
Of His Product With Profit.

Not wishing to send my honey to
commission men and help to over
stock the market and lower the price,
I have always tried to be my own
salesman. l have tried selling honey
In many ways. The most pleasant
and successful way is selling by sam
pie. find October and November the
best months IN the year to sell honey.
! select a pleasant day, put In my
satchel some nice samples OF comb
and extracted honey and beeswax,
mount my bicycle and start for neigh
boring towns and cities, says the
writer in Farm and Home. visit the
leading grocers and show my honey.
/ guarantee everything to be as good
as the samples shown and promise to
deliver honey safe, sound and clean,
free from breakage or drip, and most

ERRORS Asour THE WHITE
HOUSE.

To the Editor:
noticed somewhere recently-I
would not say positively that 1t was in
your columns-an article on the White
House which contained several mis-
statements.
In the first place It was stated the
White House was first occupied in
1909 and that Its first occupant was
President Madison. The fact is, Its
first occupant was President Adams,
who took up his residence there in
1900.
The original mansion was begun In
1872. In 1914 1t was burned by the
British and rebuilt in 1918.
Another of the errors In the article
referred to was the statement that
ready-prepar ID paint is used on the
White House to make 1t beautifully
white.
noticed this especially because
have used considerable paint myself
and wondered that canned" paint
should be used on such an important
building when all painters know that
pure white lead and linseed oil make
the best paint.
1t SO happened also that I knew
white lead and linseed oil-not ready
mixed paint-were used on the White
House, because had Just read book
let published by firm of ready-mixed
paint manufacturers who also manu-
facture pure white lead. In that book
the manufacturers admitted that for
the White House nothing but "the
best and purest Of paint could be
used" and said that their pure white
lead had been selected.
Above all people, those who attempt
to write on historical subjects should
give us facts, even II 1t is only date
or statement about wood, or brick,
or paint, or other building material.
Yours for truth,

DIAMONDS IN UNITED STATES
Stones to the Value Of $500 Found In
Single Year.

Never in the history Of the United
States has there been such demand
for diamonds as there was In 1905.
Large quantities were imported, but
the country produced none.
In 1903 1t produced diamonds to the
value of $50, In 1901 1t had an output
worth 500. in 1900 its production was
valued at $3.50, and in 1899 the coun,
try boosted native diamonds to the
value of 5000.
Diamonds have been discovered In
the United States in four different re-
gions, but their actual place Of orr
gin Is unknown. All have been found
in loose and superficial deposits, and
all accidentally.
It is not at all improbable, how.
ever, that some day the original
sources Of this queen Of gems may be
discovered. The high price of dia
monds has made the recent search for
these precious stones In the United
States and Canada keener than ever
before. Scientific American.

School. sprsadlno In China.

A few years ago the foreign mis-
sionary schools were practically the
only institutions in Foochow Offering
facilities for the acquisition of west
ern learning. There are now at least
80 native schools fashioned after the
foreign model. Foochow Is a city of
5000 inhabitants. and these schools
embrace about 1000 students. Pc1:

tise the opening Of various modern

Scarcely a week passes without the
announcement Of the opening Of q

THE WHITE RIVER COUNTRY.

In the opinion of one who has trav-
eled much and observed closely, the
most truly and rightfully contented
people In the United States to-day are
the small landowners in what Is
known as the Upper White River Coun-
try. anywhere from Newport. Ark. to
Carthage, Mo. They are cdntented be-
cause their surroundings are ideal and,
until recently, the great. uneasy, dis
quoting world, with its artificial needs
and inadequate compensations, has
been to them but little more tangible
than q dream. Here, still existent,
and by reason Of their very rarity at
this day and time more delectable
than In the past. are the conditions
which have ever appealed with IRE
sistible force to the independent-spir-
tied Anglo-Saxon. Every man is the
supreme ruler of his own little prin.
cipality: acknowledging no master
save the law-and possibly his fem
mime helpmeet; cringing to no en-
ployer; asking no favors from the
world, save those that his neighbors
freely extend and expect as freely In
return. He lives in a latitude where
the extremes Of heat or cold are never
known, and at an altitude that insures
perfect health. The richest bounty
OF Nature has been showered upon
him with unsparing hand, but 1t is a
question whether he more than dimly
realizes the fact. He accepts as mat
ter of course the fertile soil which
produces In abundance every Guilty.
able growth common to the north
temperate zone, the surrounding for
ests of valuable woods and the under.
lying stratas of precious minerals, the
springs and streams of translucent
purity on every hand, the wealth of
fish and game at his very door. such as
less favored mortals annually travel
hundreds Of miles to find. He Is con-
tented, but small credit is his for that,
for how could he well be otherwise
than content? It is sad that such
idealistic conditions may not con-
tinue, but 1t is written that the pres
ent possessors of this favored land
must soon give place to others more
appreciative Of its Incompatible fea-
lures. A railroad has recently cut its
way through the best of this region,
and the unaccustomed rustic of bank
notes and chink of coin will eventually
tempt the hill-dweller to part with his
birthright. So 1t has always been in
the worlds history-the good things
that are ours without price invariably
pass from our hands before we come
to understand their value. The White
River country will shortly be discov-
cred anew by class of immigrants
better capable of Judging its POSSIBLE
ities-the men who seek modest
homes where the "lay of the land"
will effectually prevent crowding by
too close neighbors, where their cat
tie can fatten on free range, where
the wealth Of forest and mine awaits
development by intelligent workers,
and where the game and fish offer en-.
joyahle recreation to all who have
leisure md inclination for sport.

POULTRY FEEDING.
Best Rule Is Common sense-Give
Fowls Food That 10 Nourishing.

The best rule for feeding poultry is
common sense; the health and useful
ness of fowls does not depend on fol-
lowing rules SO much as on getting
an adequate supply Of palatable food.
Changing the food several times daily
is no better than making the same
changes as often each week. This
may be seen from the rules prac-
ticed by successful poultrymen, says
the Orange Judd Farmer. Notice the
following:
Mash of bran and middlings, bran
and corn meal, bran only, various
grains ground together. These va
rious mashes fed morning, noon or
night, in amounts varying from a
spoonful to crop full. Some poultry
men give no mash at all Again some
keep beef scraps before the fowls at
all times, others give an ounce every
second day. Some give as much green
bone each day. as the hens will eat;
others half an ounce on alternate
days. Some mix grit. charcoal and cut
clover with the mash, others feed
them separately. It's up to you; but
your neighbor may have equal success
by an opposite practice. Principle is
above rule.

CONTROL OF swARkiINo.
A Device Designed to Keep Down In.
crease While Securing Honey.

During the past three years ] have
made a good many experiments In
trying to perfect a simple mechanical
device and to evolve system Of
manipulation to go with 1t that would
enable the apiarist to control swarm
ing effectually, secure crop OF
honey, and requiem his colonies at one
and the same time; and having met
with good success along the lines OF
my experimenting have concluded
to tell the Bookkeeping public the re-
suits Of my work, writes ]. K. Cham
bers, Of Vigo, Texas, in Gleanings In
Bee Culture.
In the illustrations, A represents
the top story of hive, and b the
bottom or the lower story, with the
dividing board and chute in correct
position on the hive; and the entire
construction and method of applica-
ton are 80 clearly shown that any
extended description is unnecessary.
The dividing board ig simply
board cleated on the two upper sides
and rear end. The front is not cleat-
ed, and forms the opening shown at
H. The passage holes are bored
through and covered with zinc, as
shown at d d. The purpose of these
holes Is to maintain a certain degree
Of communication between the two
hive bodies, and to guard against the
possibility of the young bees In hive
A deserving in too great force. In
the rear end of the dividing board a
small opening covered with zinc IL
shown at e. This serves as a flight
hole, and helps to arrest and fix
certain number OF bees; for by num-
erous experiments l found that, with
out these holes to act as counter
checks, the entire force will desert
from hive A above, thus leaving the
brood and queen Unprotected to
starve; but through the holes ID ID
sufficient nurse bees come up from
hive B to prevent this, and this trou-
BILE is overcome.
The chute is made by mailing to-
gether two pieces of timber, Xxi, six
inches long, and one piece Xxi, IA
inches long, and covering one side by
mailing on thin board six inches

How TO Put On Gloves.

Open and turn back the gloves 10
the thumb and powder lightly. Put
the fingers in their places, not the
thumb, and carefully work them on
with the first finger and thumb Of
the other hand until they are quite
down; never press between the fin
gers. Pass the thumb into its place
with care and work on as the fingers.
Turn back the glove and slide 1t over
the hand and wrist, never pinching
the kid, and work the glove into
proper place by means of the light,
est pressure, always allowing the kid
to slide between the fingers. In fin
ishing care should be taken In fas.
tening the first button.
