Quently happens that hives are entire
ly buried in snow. While the snow
Is light and porous air will penetrate
It and reach the entrance of the hives,
but should the snow become crusty,
or ice form at the entrance, the bees
would be in danger Of suffocating. 1t
is well to have all hives facing south
ward, SO the sun can shine on the
entrance of the hive and keep them
free from ice. After a heavy fall OF
snow We always sweep in front OF
the hives, leaving the snow banked
around the other three sides, as it
will do no harm there but will help to
keep off the prevailing winds. Bees
will take an OCCASIONAL flight during
warm days in winter, and sometimes
many are seen lying about dead on
the snow, but such are generally the
old ones that are easily chilled and

losses are not serious. Even when
the snow Is on the ground, and 1t
looks as II 1t would be pity for so
many bees to fly and rop on this white
sheet, we find that it is the colonies
which take the most lively flight that
winter best, and we have paid parti.
cular attention to this fact.
Some people are of the opinion
that II we have a cold steady winter,
in which the bees remain confined in
their hives for several months, there
Is less danger Of the overlooking of
their bowels with focal matter which
they cannot discharge in the hive
without greatly endangering the life
or health of the colony. Diarrhoe-is
often brought about during the winter
season. 1t Is no doubt caused by fer
mented or extremely thin honey. II
has been found that bees located near
cider mills will contract the trouble
from feeding too much on the apple
pomace or can juice. Cold weather
dampness. or sudden change of tenn
perature have been known to bring
on the disease. No remedy has been
discovered. However, the bees should
be kept as warm as possible and the
hive should be well wrapped as soon
as the outbreak is noticed. During
the cider making season. the pomace
should be removed and fed to the
hogs or disposed of SO that the bees
cannot partake Of it.
During the winter months the bees
are huddled close together in a com

and the weather gets warmer, the
cluster is brought in, but all the work

Notes on Orchard Culture.

Glover is the apple trees bes,
friend.
Profit from a fruit orchard is not
theory but demonstrated fact.
A few days after pruning paint the
stubs with white lead
Each tree has an individuality of its
own and must be dealt with accord
ingly.
Good, first-class fruit is the aim OF
our efforts. Never be satisfied with
anything else
Stable manure is without doubt the
best general fertilizer that can be ap.
piled to orchard soils.
Make the orchard a business ven.
ture and keep an account of every
thing pertaining to it's interests.
When poor fruit is produced there
Is reason. Aim to find it by a care.
full study of the trees and conditions
Nature grows fruit for the seeds
while man grows it for the pulp. We
want pulp with as few seeds as DOS
sible.
In removing large limbs saw them
of about three feet from the trunk to
prevent splitting Then saw OF close
to the trunk SO as not to leave a pro
jecting stub.
