Honey Producers, Attention!

Now ia the time when colonies should
be given hasty examination to de-
termine which have died and which
need feeding. and many colonies that
would otherwise die can be saved IL at-
tended to in time.
No colony should he examined or its
hive opened unless the day is clear and
reasonably warm and should not be
left open for longer period than ia
absolutely necessary. and in closing the
hive great care should be exercised In
replacing the packing that constituted
the winter protection.
Where colonies have died the hives
with their combs should be taken into
the house. and later on these bodies
and combs can be used as extracting
combs with colonies that have win
tered well. or they can be used for
making increase. as the bees will soon
free them of dead bees and other ref
use and make them all right again.
Where rapid increase is desired we
shall have to resort to artificial meth
DDS Of division. as natural swarmtng
cannot be depended upon to give u all
the increase desired.
Making Use Of Empty Cans.

! Among the Chickens.

No use to sputter about 1t and call
folks fools because they insist on hav.
ing white eggs. just get yourself into
Z position to cater to the taste and let
It 60 at that.
Don't forget that meat is good to
make hens lay. but don't 20 crazy on
the meat question and give them too
much. for you can easily make them
sick. Meat two or three times week
10 often enough.
Why not feed the laying hens some
potatoes. cabbage. turnips. etc.. and
thus make them feel somewhat as
they did in the summer. when they
found plenty of green material tor
food? Then your egg basket would
also al up as it did "in the good old
summer time"
Roup Is usually fatal malady. and
very little can be done for the fowls
unless in the first stages. when the

MAJORITY CUT TO 10000.
Marshall 10 Elected Republican Com.
mitteeman.

Grand Forks. - Additional re.
turns on the Republican political
contest indicate that the 10,5Oo
mark will be the limit Of La
Follette's plurality over Roosevelt and
Taft. Twelve hundred and eighty
precincts out Of 1.743 In forty-seven
counties give La Toilette 2e,917 and
Roosevelt 1922. while Taft has rs.
ceived 1875.
Two missing counties have given
La Toilette about 500 majority, being
Ward and Burke, and the returns Of
the latter county will not be available
till after the county canvassing board
meets, this situation being the result
OF complication in the county two
years ago when an election contest
was based upon the fact that election
return envelopes had been opened by
the county auditor.
The counties actually heard from
give La Toilette lead of S,7O5 and
with the 800 additional in Burke and
Ward his lead is 9.505.
Barnes county's complete figures
and that of Williams gave La Toilette
a decided boost. Barnes gave him =
majority over Roosevelt Of 824, while
Williams county gave him q majority
of 637. Williams, by the way, was
one of the counties which the Roose-
velt managers had expected to carry.
Thomas Marshall's victory over 4.
c. Cooper for Republican committee
man has been tremendous. His ma
jortty will be greater than La Fol.
.lette's lead. az he carried many coua.
ties which went for Roosevelt. His
majority will be between $4,000 and
$4,000.
John Bruegger's lead for the posi-.
ton OF national committeeman for the
Democratic party in North Dakota has
been very materially reduced by
George Duis of Grand Forks and tho
Grand Forks man may get the place
ON the committee as a result of the
unexpected change in the situation.
John erueuoer 10 Elected.
Every indication pointed to the elec
tion of John Bruegger as national
committeeman of the Democratic
party. The returns which have been
received at the Bruegger headquarters
in this city. as well as those which
have been obtained by the Fargo and
Grand Forks newspapers, show that
Mr.. Bruegger is running we'll ahead
throughout the state and it appears
impossible for any of the other can
didates to overcome the lead. Mr..
Brueggers support has been very gen.
eral and In several counties he has
received as large vote as all the
other candidates combined.
Despite the unusual heat injected in.
to the national committeeman fight by
the candidates themselves, they were
unable to bring tho Democrats to the
polls in very large numbers, as tho
total Democratic vote in the state 10
only about 5000 or 1000.

FARGO Has Warm Election.

Fargo.-Oficial returns indicate
that Fargo has had the closest munic.
tpal election in its history with Jordan
and Sweet tied for the maycralty. It
will take an Official count to decide
tho results. It is alleged that several
students at North Dakota Agricultural
college were voted in the Seventh
ward. where Sweets majority is be.
tween 70 and 80. In case the official
returns show his election. a contest
may be instituted, based on alleged
Irregularities there. c. p. Mitchell
and A. Roberts were elected treasurer
and city justice without opposition.

es, which may come either way by over
or understanding or by entire failure.
Some operators would make US believe
that the time for broadcast sowing Is
past absolutely. Such is not the case.
There are times and subjects when
broadcast seeding il very successful.
The reason for this Is very plain upon
investigation. Broadcasted seed is GOV.

almost all conditions q stand Is obtain.
ed. 1t the weather turns wet after
seeding those seeds nearest the surface
will sprout: If dry the deeply buried
ones will have their chance. while by
the drill method they are all uniformly
covered; hence ii the weather turns un.

were sown the whole lot may be u fail

as they choke up unless the dow is lib.
eral. When this Is the cuse the only
way out is to proceed rapidly. thereby
reducing the time for the seed to roll
out. Where land Is too rough for nice
work such machines as have a two
piece coverer can often be made to
work by removing Que side Of the Gov.
ering device. thus allowing clods to
pass. Another way to handle rough
land Is to I,recede the drill with sin.
gle wheel hoe. using one slim cultiva-
tor tooth TO open mark aud roll the
clodS aside. This can br made to work
where nothing else will. Soils that
bake readily can be handled similarly
by opening slight furruw. removing
the covering device entirely and lie.
pending upon the roller to firm the seed
without covering. This permits the
weak seedlings to come up through the
crevtces. There can be no greater mis-
take made than preparing land too fine

certain amount of roughnesS Is abso.

Bees For Every Farm.
1t is safe to say that every farm
could support at least Il few hives OF
bees. Nearly all parts Of our country
produce honey in sufficient quantities
to pay for the gathering. The amount
Of honey that goes to waste every year
for want of bees to gather 1t is very
large-in fact. too large to estimate.
