Why FEAR THE zARrrLEssa

We have quite enough to fear without
adding to our list the names of those
things that are harmless.
Many children have been told that the
harvests fly, or locust, that favors us
with its "ehee-chee-chee" through The
hot days of summer, is not to be touch
ed because it's sting will kill. Why
should this fly, which has no stinger, be
feared more than a bumble-bee?
If you are able to do so. catch one OF
these so-calied locusts and examine it.
Can you learn how its peculiar noise is
made?
"a real locust is what is COMMONLY
called a dusty-gray grass hopper. that
flies UP suddenly from the field or road
side and shows you its black-striped
wings.)
The dragon-fy, so often called snake
feeder or snake doctor, perches itself on
the tip of weed, buH-rush, or small
limb near the water. On one Of Theses 1t
waits for a mosquito to appear. While
on a fishing excursion some afternoon
this summer, watch this Industrious lit
tie fellow secure his dinner OF mosqui-
toes. If by mistake he should fly into
your house or school house. do not fear
in the least to handle him, for he is
harmless.

Joseph Gray, prominent bee author
ity of Long Eaton. England. writes as
follows:
II use Potts green cages, which can
also be used as cell protectors or nurser7
les. The difference between these and
the regular cages are:
l. The candy-hole is made from the
end, using only a half-inch bit.
2. A half-inch hole Is made through
the side into the center compartment.
8. The top and side covers are of
perforated metal, and cur so that they
do not catch the clothing.
4. These covers are put on with a
screw, which serves as a hinge, and
can be tightened with one turn of the
screwdriver. so that the Imprisoned bees
cannot force the doors and escape, which
1 have seen them do when laid down
temporarily.
The convenience and advantage OF
these cages will be really seen in the
following operations:
Go to your nucleus colony and pick
up the comb with the queen; grasp it
with the left hand. also hold your queen
cage with the same hand, your thumb
over the opened side door, A three
Fights or quarter inch is not nearly SO
convenient. You can cage as many bees
as you wish with seldom sting. The
covers are so cut that they Will not
catch the clothing and pull open on the
way to the apiary.

A woman of western Pennsylvania
says that many of her young laying
hens died last winter and she attributes
the trouble to mixing grit with the feed
as she has been told to do
There is some difference of opinion as
to feeding grit. 1t is true that when hens
on a range pick up their feed they al
ways get with il a considerable. amount
of grit, but we doubt whether it is wise
to force grit upon them when in con-
finement.
If grit is provided in boxes, the hens
will usually use as much as Is neces-
sary for their health and it appears to
us that this is the natural way of TAX
ing grit.
1t might be we'll to mix grit with the
feed if we know exactly how much
would be needed for the health of the
birds, but as they are the best judges
of this matter we think it much better
to- provide grit in boxes and allow
them to help themselves.
