HANDY AS A SWARM CATCHER
Material, Which Costs but Few Cents,
Consists Of Cloth Bag, and
Piece Of Wire.
By r. G.. HERMAN.)

(By F. G. HERMAN.)
I will describe how to make
swarm catcher with which a swarm
Of bees clustered 80 feet high can be
hived nearly as quickly and easily
as when near the ground.
1t requires only a short time to
make one. The material. which is
worth but few cents, consists of a
large bag made from any kind of
stout, coarse cloth-such a sack as
binding-twine comes in is excellent.
To hold the mouth of this sack
open, piece of smooth wire as large
or little larger than telegraph-wire
is used, which is bent in circle with
the ends overlapping some inches, so
that they can be tied together with
a small wire or stout cord
The mouth of the sack is then Sc
curely sewed around the wire hoop.
A crochet stick, the prongs Of which
naturally of their own accord stay as
far or little farther apart than the
diameter Of the wire hoop, is used,
and with stout cord the end of each
prong is tied to the wire hoop directly
opposite each other so that the sack
swings free.
Now the mouth Of the open sack
will always point upward, no matter
at what angle the pronged stick may
be held. The stick below the prongs
should be at least two feet long so
the small end of q light pole can
be attached to it by allowing the two
to overlap couple of feet, and bind
ing them together with short straps.
Different length poles can be used,
as they can be attached or detached
in an instant.
When a swarm is clustered on a
small limb, the catcher can be raised

surroundings should be kept scrupu-
lousy clean and sanitary and the
flock kept free of vermin.
Cracked corn is one of the best
grain feeds for growing poultry.
When new corn begins to harden,
whether sweet or field corn, it may
be whitfield" or shaved from the
cob for the eager chicks. On range
they will secure bugs, worms and
grasshoppers, and pick up grit and
bone-making material.
When they have reached full height
all those intended for market should
be put in fattening crates and fed
ground feed and skim milk for three
weeks. An average of two pounds
per head may be added to the weight
Of fowls, old and young, by this meth
cd at cost of about five cents a
pound. BY all means keep the chicks
growing, and fatten them before put
ting them on the market.

Henne and Pecke were two henpeck-

concerning the weather, the subject
OF women and unfortunate husbands
was-perhaps naturally-discussed. To
Henne, however, suddenly came
thoughts of years ago, when he was
a happy bachelor, and (unconsciously

later on, destined to bring him sor-
row and misery.
Pecke, seeing a "far-away" look in
his companions eyes, inquired the
meaning. Henne retorted dramat-
ically, Il was just then thinking, old
fellow, of those happy days long ago
when / used to hold that girls hand
in mine for hours-when-"
But the equally unfortunate Pecke
suddenly cut his companion short by
exclaiming: why, that's nothing!

POUrTPYNOTES
(NWS6S q 3aaao J

What are you breeding lice, mites
or poultry?
Look to the comforts of your stock
if you want good results.
It's more profitable to feed poultry
than it is to feed vermin.
Kafir corn is considered a stimulat
ing grain by the pigeon breeders.
Nux vomica is good stimulant and
appetizer if fed in moderate doses.
Preparations are frequent in yards
that have no shade these hot days.
The poultry business is legal
business, and yet we must have wa
tered stock to do business.
A hen, If given the opportunity
that does not keep the lice on her
body under control, is not worth keep
ing.
Feed your poultry very little corn,
If any, these hot days; the mites a
kerosene emulsion and make the lice
''bite the dust"
Good breeding and exhibition stock
is scarce this year, and will be scarce1
after "Johnny-on-the-spot" gets
through selecting his.
Now that ducks have stopped laying
turn them out to pasture, feed lightly
and give lots of shade, as ducks are
very susceptible to heat.
Spray once or twice a month with a
kerosene emulsion or some other
good Cisinfectant and use lime with
little sulphur added in the nest boxes.

from experience breezy hens are like

ing water, just enough to make it
claret red, will kill all germs in the
water, and Is an excellent disinfect-
ant for the digestive system Of your
birds.
Limberneck is caused by the fowls
having access to decaying vegetable
or animal matter. If you find any cas-.
es in your flock look for something
dead lying in some corner that has
commenced to decay and your birds
have commenced to eat it.

up, which jars the limb, so that the
whole swarm falls right into the
sack.
If they are clustered on large
limb the mouth of the sack can be
raised up under them and by moving
it one side, the bees are brought into
the sack, and a swarm can be picked
right off the body of tree, for by
letting the mouth of the sack catch
on the body of the tree below the
bees, then gradually raising it up, the
bees will be brushed in.
Garry to the hive and invert the
bag, or rather turn it inside out, and
the bees will drop in front of the hive
and run into it. and the hiving is

KEEP LITTLE ONES GROWING
Young Chicks, When Allowed to
Range, Are Too Often Neglected
and Become Stunted.

By N. E. CHAPMAN, Poultryman, Min
nesota College Of Agriculture.)
Most chicks are well fed and cared
for while their mothers are confined
in coops; but when allowed to range
regular feeding is too often neglect
ed, and as result growth is retarded
and they become what is termed
"stunted." It appears from statistics
furnished by produce dealers that but
seven per cent. of spring chicks mar
keted weigh four pounds December /.
BY this time all the spring stock of
the general purpose breeds, like the
Rocks, Wyandottes, Orpingtons and
Reds, should average at least six
pounds live weight. Plymouth Rocks
have been made to weigh seven
pounds dressed, at Thanksgiving time,
by judicious feeding for growth and
development while on range.
When the chicks are weaned at
six or eight weeks and are on range,
their grain ration, with grit and char
coal. may be supplied in hoppers. The
hoppers should be SO placed or so
constructed that the old fowls will not
rob the chicks or drive them away.
A small Enclosure, made of lath and
covered with wire, will admit the
chicks and keep others from fright
ening or molesting the chicks while
eating. Coops of ample space should
be furnished, we'll ventilated, but Sc
cure from the depreciation of night

as against ITO per 10000 in the United
States. These figures are based on a

Lime-SuIphur Bad for Potatoes.

Farmers who plan to use lime-sut
phur instead of bordeaux mixture for
potatoes should abandon this idea Of
getting along with only one fungicide.
The New York experiment station has
established the fact that lime-sulphur
used on potatoes dwarfs the plants
and cuts down the yield. The crop
sprayed with bordeaux mixture yield
ed SO bushels more per acre than the
unsprayed, and the patch on which
lime-sulphur was used yielded so
bushels to the acre less than the I'M
sprayed. This gives difference of a
hundred bushels to the acre in favor
of the bordeaux as against lime-sul-
phur. Lime-sulphur for trees, Dor
deaux for potatoes, seems the proper
rule.
