GARDEN WORKING NOTES.

The woman who finds garden work

hours.
small box of convenient height
makes a comfortable seat and may be
readily moved from place to place. 1t
saves tired knees.
The five-cent cotton g'oves used by
many make cheap and effective pro-
lection for the hands, more comforta-
bic and more quickly adjusted than
those which fit.
The hoe is a better tool in dry
weather than the hose. Cabbage, on
ions, tomatoes and cucumbers can
scarcely have the soil too rich. A rich,
light loam with a sunny slope, is an
ideal spot for melons. Beans will grow
on poorer soil and still thrive.
If the plants are all growing nicely
do not wait for them TO halt for lack
of food but dig a hole between the
hills and put in some poultry-house

Breeding Sweet Corn.

Considerable tabular data are given
by the New Jersey experiment station,
showing the effect, as indicated by
the composition, of breeding sweet
corn by the ear to row msthod Three
plats were selected from the first
years planting, and analyses made of
number of ears from each row
These ears were allowed TO ripen, and
were planted in the season of 1907
The result again indicated the ten
dency of certain individual ears to
transmit a high percentage of sugar,
and that this tendency prevails
throughout the entire row grown from
such an ear The Crosby varieties was
found TO be much sweeter than the
Stowell Evergreen.

Fresh Honey on Farm.

Fresh honey on the farm is a most
excellent food and an appreciated deli
cacy for any table. Bees are the
most cheaply kept of all domestic ami
mails, and they do much good to fruit
trees and other plants in carrying
pollen for greater fruit production
They are both interesting and profit
able, and every farmer should keep at
least a few colonies with plenty Of
new hives and other supplies to care
for the surplus honey and any new
or stray swarms that come off during
the summer. There is an old saying:
"a swarm of bees in May is worth q

dislike wearing the same clothes on
two consecutive days. More particu-

meet a man are his eyes and his neck
tie. And there is a sort of underlying
consciousness as you face the morn
ing world that your tie must be
straight and clean and new. But to
this end you must buy the cheap tie.

Advantages Of the Separator.

One of the greatest advantages OF
the hand separator is the reduction of
hauling and handling the dairy prod
uct when creamery Is patronized.
In the busy summer season, when the
time of men and teams is valuable,
much time is wasted in hauling milk
to the creamery and waiting turns to
get the skinned milk to bring back
home. In many cases this loss Is
almost as much as the product Is
worth.

Bees Sense Of Direction.

Bees return to their hives in a d.
rect line when they have been car
ried away and liberated, up to two
miles. This has been supposed to be
due either to the sense Of sight or Of
smell, but the experiments of Castor
BONNER have proved that neither
sight nor smell can serve the purpose
and that bees have special sense
of direction" This sense is not in
the antennae.
