marked this record is evident by the
reputation of the Garrick at the pres

change in the force of employees about
the theatre when It opens on Mon

that practically everything was in

An attractive feature of every Swiss
landscape in spring and summer is the
beauty and variety of Wild flowers
growing in profusion on hillsides and
lower mountain ranges, while the val

rich and varied tints OF flowers that
cluster in the greenswaTd. The wealth

land possesses qualities that produce
delicious honey. and thousands of col
onies of bees may be seen in the
country, being utilized by the people
to increase the food supply and com
mercial products; in fact, the produc-
tion of honey and wax constitutes an
industry of considerable Importance
to the Confederation. as is shown by
statistics furnished by the Swiss So
ciety of Agriculturists.
1t is estimated that there are $50, 900
hives or colonies of bees In the coun-
try, each of which produces 40 pounds
of honey during the season, total
OF 100000 pounds year. The av-
erage price of Swiss honey for the
year 1909 was 25 cents a pound. CIV
ing the years product a total value
of $2,5O000O. The statistics furnished
by the Society Of Apiculturists show
that the highest average production OF
1909 was in the Canton of Lucerne,
where 5000 colonies Of bees produced
$4,000 pounds of honey, an average
of SO pounds to the colony. The next
highest average, AZ pounds, was in the
| Canton OF Berne, where $500 colonies
produced 403.200 pounds of honey. The
territory comprising the Cantons OF

BEST METHODS

American Farmer Has Much 20

abIe-European
Ways Good.
iRy NJ. K. ROYERN

An English journal says that when
they have look at the average Eng
lish farmers egg basket and cont.
mental egg box there is much to be-
seen and learned therefrom
In the farmers basket will be found
eggs of all sizes, shapes, tlnts and
colors. There has been no attempt at
grading or uniformity II a farmer
gets an even lot of eggs, all brown. he
can sell them at IA for 23 cents Ia
shilling), but he would have to sell
fifteen eggs OF his iumbled-up lot for
the same price The continental eggs
are all evenly and securely packed. all
Of one color. and graded according to
size.
The condition OF the English farm
er's egg basket is very much like the
egg basket OF the American farmer.
There is a reason for it, SO long as
the farmer will continue to harbor
mOngrel poultry he Is sure TO have all
colors and sizes OF eggs. Nothing but
a well-selected and well-bred strain OF
a single breed viii give the desired
uniformity
In England there are two or three
methods employed by poulterers for
killing their stock One by neck
stretching, by which the fowl is seized
by the hooks. the finger and thumb OF
the free hand being placed on the
poll and the neck is stretched until
the spinal cord is ruptured. Death is
instantaneous. as well as painless. and
the blood flows down into the cavity
OF the neck.
The other method Is to secure the
fowl as above, stun II by means OF a
smart tap at the base OF the skull.
then open its beak and thrust sharp
knife down It's throat and withdraw Il
rapidly by pressing the keen edge
against the back OF the throat.
The beak is then rinsed and the
legs scrubbed with stiff brush ana
soapy water. which makes them bright
and clean for simple trusting for
market.

GOOD FLOWING
REQUIRES SKILL
Soil Conditions Must be Studied

By n. b. RusHING1

was in conversation with a neigh.
Dor just a short time ago and he
asked me the question: What is
good plowing. and how should 1t be
done in the spring to give best re.
sults?"
replied: Good plowing consists
in turning and setting the soil into
nice. neat. even, clean. round, straight
furrows so that the upper soil will be
brought up as much as possible and
exposed to the sun and atmosphere" "
What do | mean by clean furrows +?
Having the weeds. stubble and grass
all turned under and cutting a clean
landslide Even? Having the fur
rows all the same height.
Round? So that the burrows will
show a little crease between them.
and unless you plow straight your fur
rows will not be even.
Some may think that a certain
depth and width are necessary in good
plowing. 1t is. Regulate the width
by depth, but there are so many diff
ferent shaped mold boards which
throw the soil in different positions.
that some would cut wide burrows.
and others narrow. Not only this. but
some soils need shallow plowing in
order to produce the best results.
while others need deep plowing,
| plow a certain depth and width
and get good results. but this might
not apply to all farms. You might
try the same width and depth with
poor results.
have found that even on the same
farm there are sometimes different
fields that will give better results with
different depths OF plowing. and,
therefore, It becomes necessary TO
make It q study and know what is
needed.
