Bees Brimming With Energy Give Grocer Worry

ID ITTSBURG, Pa.-There is a grocer
i in the East End who knows the
answer to the question. How doth
the little busy bee?"
What he doesn't know is Just what
to do when the bees get busy.
The Industrious little critters own
one complete window section of his
store. They are feeding on his sugar.
sampling his candy. profiting by his
figs and mixing up his dates: and now
they are about ready to start hive.
1t all began when an eastern firm
made arrangements with the grocer to
give demonstration of the making of
honey. With a pretty girl and bunch
of industrious bees the demonstration
was bound to be success.
The girl arrived. and she was nc.
cording to specifications. The bees ar
rived. by parcel post. and everything
was ready for the big advertising
stunt Then Fate butted in and broke
the cute little glass house the bees in.
habited.
Instantly the honeymakers started
out on a foraging expedition. There
was nothing in the store they didn't

The Summer SIlo.

The use of the silo throughout the
year is finding favor with many stock
keepers. 1t is quite difficult to obtain
profit on pasture which is on land
worth 10000 or more per acre. Dur
ing drouth seasons. the pasture Is
often so poor that 1t affords little OF no
feed, but the interest on the invest
ment, and the taxes must be found.
There is no question but what the use
of the silo for summer feeding will
make rapid gains during the next few
years and will soon come into common
use. The millions of tons of corn
stalks and rough forage which are
now annually going to waste will find
use in the form of silage and will
make possible not only cheaper pro
ductlon of stock and stock products,
but will also make 1t possible to at
least double the profit of stock raising.
Farmers who are complaining Of low
profits from cattle, should make a
study of the silo, as they will here find
means to increase their profits and
do this with less labor. The silo Is
forage bank which If put into general
use will have vast amount Of valu-
able feed and bring a great wealth to
our people.-A. l.. Hacker.
