COMBINING BEES AND FRUIT
Honey Gatherers Add Materially to
Fertility Of Berries and Fruits
by Pollen Distribution.
(By d. w. oTIs.)

By. d. W. oTIs)
The ideal fruit-farm, with it's or
chards of apples, cherries, pears, and
plums, its shade-trees and its gardens,
is hardly complete without at least a
few stands Of bees. Properly man
aged they will not only add to the
profits of their owner, but supply his
table with an abundance of the most
luxurious of all delicacies; and add
materially to the fertility of his ber-
ries and fruits by the pollen-distrib-
uting habits that these insects pos
sess.
This important feature. however, is
generally omitted, or carried on in
such way as to result in very little
profit and a great deal of trouble;
and usually results in failure in the
end; and this In face of the fact that
1t might easily be made one Of the
most profitable and fascinating of the
fruit-grower's occupations.

GETTING DOWN TO BUSINESS
British Housewife Showed How to
praw the Line Between Senti.
ment and Supper.


Apropos OF King Georges corona
ton John Quinn of the Irish Indepen-
dence League said the other day in
New York:
There will be lot Of empire talk
and imperialism talk to spoil the coro-
nation. The English imperialist, you
know, prefers to talk about the en-
pire's fringe, OF which he is ignorant,
rather than about it's heart, which he
knows to be diseased.
"The empire bubble was once prick
ed nicely by an English housewife.
"Her husband came home late on a
Sunday afternoon smelling of beer and
tobacco and very red in the face.
"'Oh,' he said, I've had fine time.
I've been to an empire meeting. 1t

Then he frowned and said impa-
tiently:
What's the matter with supper?
Amt it ready yet?'
His wife, who was peeling pota-
toes and holding squawking baby,
rose and extended the baby to him.
Here she said, take hold of your
bit of the empire while l fry these

as he can harrow before quitting time
at night.
Manufacturers have devised an at.
tachment to the pillow which enables
one to pillow and harrow as he goes.
The harrow is a rotary attachment
and can be hitched on to any sulky or
gang plow. The manufacturers claim
that it takes no extra power to oper.
ate it, and it does the work of an ex.
ira team and man, thus saving operat
ing expenses.
We are inclined to doubt somewhat,
the statement that it requires no ex-
ira power, because it seems to us that
the rotary harrow wide enough to COW
er two broad burrows dragged behind
the plows would make quite differ
ence in the work of the team.
However, as many of these attach
ments are now being used, particularly
in the west, it is quite evident that
they are regarded with favor by pro-
gressive farmers.
