BEES ARE QUITE PROFITABLE
AS Adjunct to Farm Nothing Pays So
We'll When Properly Cared For
Work for Women.

(By MRS. i. TAYLOR, Ohio.)
AS an adjunct to farming | know of
nothing, when properly cared for, that
pays SO well, considering the time
spent and the money invested, as bees.
Last year, two colonies produced
so pounds per colony of surplus hon
ey, which sold for $40. The bees cost
So, so there is a gain of SIS, or 300 per
cent. No other stock or crop paid us
as well.
A bee-keeper not far from here av.
eraged 112 pounds of honey from his
colonies. He sold it for 16 cents a
pound. This seems like a very large
yield, but with improved methods we
expect to do even better. One farmer
In this community manages to clear
500 each year from his bees. He
keeps from twelve to fifteen colonies,
and his farm does not suffer from
neglect in the least.
If the men have not time to attend
to the bees, the women can look after
them. They are generally about the
premises and have a better oppor-
tunity for watching them.
For gentleness in handling, ability
to gather honey and to keep free from
moth, l prefer the Italians. Any chaff
hive will answer the purpose. 1t
should be chaff lined all through; and
for wintering out of doors a chat
cushion should be placed over the bees
to absorb moisture.

AID Is SOUGHT FOR INDIANS
Catawbas of South Carolina Have Al
ways Been Friendly to the
Whites.

In South Carolina is the earliest
civilized tribe Of Indians in the United
States, and they are not the wards Of
the government. These are the Ca
tawbas. and they number approximate
ly 100.
State Senator W. H. Stewart %
South Carolina is in Washington TO
confer with the congressional delsg1-
ton Of that state with the view o.
having these Indians placed on th~
same basis as all other red men, and
it is probable that a bill will shorty
/ be introduced to this end.
1T is strange, perhaps, that the CT
tawba Indians, who have been wards
Of the state Of South Carolina for
many years should never have receiV-
ed any recognition from the national
government" said Senator Stewart.
"but 1t is a fact, nevertheless. The
Catawbas are the only American In
dams, so far as my knowledge goes.
that have always been friends of the
white man. They never took the blood
of a white man, and during all the
CoI4J SlI uSSISS VI inc Whites dSdluSL
the Indians the Catawbas remained
true. They were in what is now South
Carolina when the first whites reach
ed that territory, and they have re-
NAMED there.
For a long time the Cherokees oc-
cupied the same territory, and there
was continual strife between the two
tribes, for the Cherokees were among
the most b~loodthirsty tribes on this
continent. In all the struggles the Ca
tawbas took sides with the settlers
against the Cherokees. The latter In
dams massacred many of the settlers
in South Carolina.
The state government, after having
taken care of these Indians for so
many years, now is seeking to have
the national government make provi-
sion for them, so that they can, in
common with other Indians, have
land allotted to them and become
American citizens, which is only just
and air."-Washington Post,

Sugar Beets.

Cultivation of sugar beets should be-
gin as soon as the rows can be distin-
guished. Some hand wedding and hoe
ing are usually necessary. The culti-
walton between the rows should De
level, shallow and frequent throughout
the season. The crust should be brok-
en- up after each rain. Plan on going
owe the field with a cultivator about
once in 10 days. In the later cultiva-
lions the soil should be thrown slight
ly toward the beets, since all that por-
ton of the root above the soil has a
very low sugar content and is cut off
in topping.

FOUGHT HIS WAY TO FREEDOM
The Emperor of Rome Admired the
Courage and Pluck of
Caractacus.

One of the most unique captives
ever brought home to Rome by julius
Caesar was Caractacus of the early
Brftons. This great chief lost every
thing in fighting to drive out the
Romans and was taken prisoner with
his wife and children. When brought
before the Roman emperor the proud
ruler of the primitive people never
showed the least fear. His arms were
chained, and the emperor roared to
try to frighten Caractacus, but the
brave chief never so much as quaked
Instead he looked the monarch In the
eye and said:
"You fight to gain the whole world
and to make everybody your slaves. /
fought to keep my own land and for
freedom"
The great courage the chief showed
finally touched the heart of the en-
peror, and the ruler of the Romans
resolved to see if Caractacus would be
as brave when facing warriors. On
one of the great holidays in Rome
Caractacus was taken to the great
open-air amphitheater where the popu-
lace gathered. He was told that If he
could defeat the bold knight that
would be sent against him ne could go
back to his home. Caractacus fought
as he never had before; for some.
thing sweeter than his life vas at
stake-that of his wife and children,
Justice seemed to have tempered the
metal of his weapons, and when he
struck the strong armor of his antag'
onist gave way before his fearful
blows. The result was that Caractacus
and his family returned to Britain and
to happiness.

Locating the Apiary,

In starting an apiary the first thing
to be considered is the selection of a
suitable location for the hives. This
should be in some open or nearly open
place where there is not much shade,
and where there will be no over
hanging branches from trees to inter-
fere with the operation of the apiarist,
convenient to some building to be used
as a shop for preparing and storing
hives and apparatus, and near enough
to the house to be easily watched in
swarming-time, and, above all, in a
place sufficiently level to make it easy
to get around the hives and keep the
grass moved about and around them.
