" Bee Notes.

Many little things can be done
ahead of time to have bees in best
shape for winter.
This has been good season for
white comb honey. AS soon as 1t Is
we'll cupped over take it off before
the bees travel-stain 1t with their feet.
If you wait for bees to swarm be-
fore putting on supers you may lose
half crop. When the first super is
half flied, put another super under 1t.
Always know what your bees are
doing by going into the hives. See
that they have plenty Of room and a
good place to store the honey they
gather.
Put supers on Just before they will
be wanted. II put on too early the
bees gnaw holes in the foundation. and
If put on too late there is loss oi
honey that would have been stored.
In the middle of the super 1t is well
to put a few bait sections filled with
last years comb. This induces the
bees to begin storing early. By wise
manipulation much more honey Is OBJ
tainad.

Forecasting the Next Years Crop.

A York county banker, who Is in
terested In fruit growing, wrote to
State Zoologist H. A. Surface, Har-
risburg, asking him If 1t is possible
to tell in the fall or winter what
peach trees will be heavy bearers
next year, and how this can be done.
The reply of Professor Surface,
which is given below, will interest
many persons. He wrote:
IT note with interest that you ask
If we can tell in the fall which trees
are going to be heavy bearers the
next year, and If so in what way.
can say that while the peach grower
cannot tell for certain what trees
will be heavy bearers, he can tell
which will be the heavy bloomers.
The point is that the tree may bios
som heavily, but not bear fruit.
However, If his tree Is in healthy
condition, and the roots properly
protected by mulch during the win
ter time, so that they do not freeze,
the owner may be reasonably certain
of peaches where there are blossoms,
and blossoms where there are bios
som buds or fruit buds.
"These fruit buds are conspicuous
on the buds of all peach trees at this
time of the year, and in fact during
all of the fall, winter and spring.
They are present in the form Of
large, gray, round, conspicuous buds.
If you will examine your peach trees
again you will find two kinds of buds
present. Those of light or gray color
are the blossom buds, and by open
ing them carefully now you will find
the elements or rudiments of the
blossom. Often these are arranged
in pairs with small pointed bud
between. This is the leaf bud. To-
ward the tips of the twigs you will
also see more leaf buds. These are
small, pointed, and dark colored.
THE prospect for next years crop
depends, of course, to great extent
uopn the fruit buds. Thus you can
tell now by examination whether
many of these are present or not.
However, it must be remembered
that every healthy tree, as a rule,
sets many more buds than it should.
Many of our best fruit growers ad-
vocate pruning either in winter, or
early spring, in such a manner as to
remove at least one-third of these
fruit buds. If your peach trees are
like my own at the present time 1t
would be disastrous If one-fifth OF
these buds would produce fruit. II
would result in small fruit, broken
branches and disheveled trees, which
would be the more easily infected
with disease and more readily in
tested with insects. Also such heavy
drainage upon their bearing during
the summer would doubtless reduce
their vigor so that they would not
set many fruit buds for the follow
ing years crop"

Why Don't You Go to Church?

Why Don't You Go to Church?
You are too tired to go to
church" That's sheer nonsense.
There isn't place on this conti-
nent 80 restful as the church. You
are going to lie around the house
all day; dose in a hammock, loll
in a rocking chair; go to sleep
over a book. That isn't resting,
that's loafing. Tell yourself hon
estly, did you ever in your life see
a loafer who looked rested? Did
you ever see a loafer who didn't
look tired all the time? The peo-
pie who trytor rest are always tired.
Resting Is the hardest work in the
world when you make work of 1t.
Two hours in church; two hours
in the quiet; the music, the SER
mon, the reading, the uplift which
comes from the new channels, into
which your mind is led, will rest
you more physically, morally, in
tellectually, than all the day spent
in trying to rest. Why don't you

Pretty Good Advice.

In one of his Southern speeches,
President Taft said:
"If l were advising young mon
who had no prediction for any
profession, 1 should advise them to
become farmers. l don't know but
down here l ought to say planters.
Perhaps that gives 1t additional dig
nifty, but / am inclined to think that
the men who call themselves plant
ers are ordinarily lawyers or doc
ors, who do a little farming, and
they do not improve the farm by
the pursuit Of the other profession"
And that is all wool and a yard
wide. The farmer is indeed the
King-he holds sway over all. And
the young man who leaves the farm
makes the first and saddest mistake
of his life. The President of the
United States, oppressed by the
cares upon him, looked over the
farms and wished that he were 6
boy again, so that he might go t.
farming and live a life of peace
Think this over, all young men who
read The Citizen, and II you are

man of yourself.

Dr. Crum pine, OF the oLdIe ooaiu
of Health, of Kansas, has commenced
an official crusade against whiskers.
He claims that man with a long
bunch of neck whiskers furnishes a
roosting place for all sorts of germs,
and especially germs Of infectious
diseases. He observes that a man
with a flowing beard on his chin
never gets soap or water to his skin;
that the whiskers simply fill up with
germs and the germs turn hand
springs at county fairs and thus
disentangle themselves and get
among the people andcause all sorts
of diseases.
1t seems that the Kansas Demo-
Gratis are mostly given to long boards
these days. 1t used to be the Popu-
lists, but since that party has disin-
tergated and gone to pieces, Demo-
cracy is the bearded populace. And
DR.. Crumbine is doubtless right. The
concensus of opinion that If the
Doctor, while scientifically working,
will clean up the boards, bale them
and work them into mattresses for
Alaska and other cold countries
where the germ would die, he will
also succeed in making Kansas un-
animously Republican.
The whisker has long been cele-
brated in song and story, and es-
pecially has it been celebrated in
Kansas. 1t was there the bewhisk-
cred PETER made good; it was there
Jerry Simpson, sockless, but not
beardless, held the boards, and Colo
mel Carrie Nation would have worn
chin whiskers if she could have
sprouted them.
The whiskers should go, and we
hope the crusade started in Kansas
will spread out into Missouri and
Arkansas, really the home of the
long beard and the neck whiskers.
The Democratic hand book advises
all followers of Jefferson to grow a
beard in order that straw votes may
easily be taken on trains, but If the
germs are to be given life in this,
Democracy must make way for sci
ence, The school house put De-
mocracy out of power and If the
whisker is taken from 1t it will be
everlastingly put out of business
The man who wants to use a few
whiskers should grow them on his
upper lip, because then, If a Demo

ker will kill the germs, but as there

And the gratifying information IA
that Doctor Crumbipe is making
great progress and unless Norman

and a smooth faced populace will
