BEES IN WINTER QUARTERS
Should Be Transferred Into Cellar
With as Little Jarrlng as Pos
sible and Left Alone.

Get the bees into the cellar with as
little jarring as possible. along toward
night, and then leave them absolutely
undsturbed for several days, as the
cellar will not need to be ventilated
for some time.
Some successful beekeepers remove
the lids and over the hive place a shal-
low chan tray whose bottom is cover
ed with duck or heavy muslin, and the
tray filled with. say. an inch or more
OF chaff or sawdust, claiming that this
method not only absorbs the moisture
Of the hive. but that 1t also gives the
colony added warmth at the top Just
where it Is needed.
Where the bees are to be wintered
on their permannt stands outdoors,
the best plan is to have them In chaff
hives with double walls. or else have
each hive protected with many thick.
nesses of old newspapers, over which
wind and water proof wooden tele-
scope cover should be placed the
cover, OF course, being very deep.
Colonies wintered outdoors should
have at least rs pounds of honey in
them for winter stores, and II 1t is too
cold to feed the needy ones. Just re-
move from their brood nests several
empty or light combs. and replace
them with fully capped-over ones that
may be on hand.
Where few hives are kept, corn
stalks can be piled all around the
hives, leaving the entrances OF the
hives unobstructed.
When we speak OF wintering bees
outdoors In chaff hives, we would not
have our readers understand that
these chaff hives are extra winter ar.
rangements separate from the hive
proper, but are complete hives in
themselves. to be used both summer
and winter: and the only difference
between their winter and summer use
is that when we prepare them for win
ter we put in place at the top the
chaff-filled tray that is stored away
during the summer season.

GOOD MANURE SHED NEEDED
End Of Alley Back Of Stalls
Much Fertilizer Saved.

A shed may easily be built at one
end OF the barn for the gathering and
protection OF manure against the
weather. The shed should cover a
door at the end OF the alley behind
the stalls, and the floor OF the barn
30 arranged with drop that all ma
nure. both liquid and solid, is caught
and easily moved toward the door
and this shed. II the fields are dry
enough the manure spreader may be
driven under the shed and loaded di-
rectly from the barn door.
II the fields are too wet for use of
the spreader then the manure may be
protected from rain and consequent
waste. The only thing that could be
added to this shed to make 1t perfect
for its use would be concrete floor
ing with a cistern into which all the
liquid manure could drain. In the

A DOCTORS SLEEP
Fou.,d He Had to Leave Of Coffee.

Many persons do not realize that
bad stomach will cause insomnia.
Coffee and tea drinking being such
an ancient and respectable form OF
habit, few realize that the drug-caf-
feine-contained in coffee and tea, is
one OF the principal causes OF dys-
pepsia and nervous troubles.
Without their usual portion of cof-
fee or tea, the caffeine topers are
nervous, irritable and fretful. That's
the way with a whisky drinker. He
has got to have his dram ito settle his
nerves"-habit.
To leave off coffee or tea Is an easy
matter If you want to try 1t, because
Postum gives gentle but natural
support to the nerves and does not

BULLETIN OF HONEY PRODUCT
Keepers Issued by the Depart
ment Of Agriculture.

, Farmers Bulletin No. 500, United
States department OF agriculture, has
recently sent out a bulletin on comb
honey that will be OF particular in
terest to bee keepers. 1t Is by George
s. Demuth, agricultural assistant,
bureau OF entomology, and treats at
considerable length of the comb
product, analyzing the best prac-
tice and pointing out some essentials
to the production OF maximum
crops OF the best grades.
The bulletin Is mainly an argu-
ment in favor OF the production of
attractive. high quality comb honey.
and since this combination can only
be secured In rather limited areas,
It is urged that those only who
are 30 favored by location will
find It profitable to run to comb
honey.
The bulletin also calls attention
TO the fact that the tendency in
bee keeping ia decidedly toward the
production OF extracted. rather than
comb honey. and, It says, II tho gen
eral public finally becomes convinced
of the purity and wholesomeness OF
extracted honey, It will become a
staple article OF food. Present ten.

Taken in the aggregate, there can
