BEES AND POULTRY.

Honey that is sealed will stand
much more dampness than that which
is unsealed.
Nothing Will make hens lay more
eggs and develop young pullets faster
than green cut bone.
All propolis. or bee glue. should be
carefully removed from each section.
This is easie-t done with al old
table knife.
The honey should be piled few
inches OFF the floor. and a little out
from the wall: otherwise that near the
bottom and side of the room Will ac-
emulate moisture.
Experienced poultry keerers say
that pullets from the age Of 8 to IL
months lay twice as many eggs as do
hens from three to four years old In
the same length Of time.
Sometimes bees will ball their own
1ueen and kill her either because
there is something wrong with her,
or because she has been handled and
thus acquired strong scent.
1t is a bad plan to throw out whole
cey shells where the hens can find
them. First you know they viii be
picking into the whole eggs. Better
smash the shells up just as fine as
yo;; can.
More sour milk than you know what
to do with? Set painful OF 1t where
the hens can get at it. and see now
quickly it will disappear. You conldn t
nut It to better use. The hens can
turn 1t almost directly into eggs.-

viii not use meat of any kind unless
II is killed by certain method under
the direction OF r. rabbi Each large
market has n slaughter house. where
animals and birds are slaughtered ac-
curdins to these prescribed rites. The
best prices for live poultry are secured
at the time OF the Jewish holidays, the
dates of which vary from year to year.
They can be ascertalrcd through any
commission house or dealer
Occasionally the price of live poultry
is as high as for dressed stock. and
under these conditions It is waste
OF time to dress the birds before ship

market Is near at hand, as the birds
Will not shrink much when being
shipped but 2 short distance.
For shipping live poultry to market
well.eonstructed crates are particular,
ly desirable. says the Montreal Herald
They should be Of sufficient size 10
avoid causing discomfort to the birds
yet small enough to permit easy hand
ling by expFessmeu and others. Long
crates should be equipped with solid
cross partitions 10 prevent the birds
being thrown together at one end
when the crate is tipped in handling
Failure to observe this simple prccau
tion often results in the loss of mum

crates should be thoroughly ventilated
as in crowded express cars they are
frequently piled one above another

DIMES CATHOLIC CARDINALS
Ambassador Whites Function in
Honor of Archbishop Ireland
Marks Important Departure.

Rome, April 26.-For the first time
since the fall of the temporal power
members of the college of Cardinals
Wednesday night attended function
given by diplomat accredited to the
Quirinal. The occasion was dinner
given by Mr.. White, the American am
bassador to Italy, and Mrs. White, IN
honor of Archbishop Ireland, and the
cardinals who were guests were Vim
cenzo Vannuetelli, Satolli, Matthew
and Martinelli.
Among the other guests were Mrs.
Wettmore, wife of the United States
senator from Rhode Island The din
ner was originally set for last week,
but was postponed on account of the
San Francisco disaster, and for the
same reason the after dinner reception
at the embassy which had been
planned was omitted. The presence OF
the four cardinals at Mr.. Whites table
is regarded as an augury of approach
ing good feeling between the Vatican
and the Quirinal.
