Mr.. Flint ceased trying to disabuse

assurances.

resumed. THE episode of the four

Boys Pet Wildcat Puts Big Bulldog to Flight

KANSAS City, Mo.-A wildcat is the
N pet Of William Miles, sixteen
years old. Of 3516 Baltimore avenue
The cat is three months old. 1t was
caught by a brother of Miles who shot
It's mother in Mexico and captured the
kitten and sent 1t to Kansas City.
Miles has a collar on the cats neck
and when the weather is fine the cat
is brought from the cellar TO the back
yard and hitched to a rope that leads
up to a wire across the yard. A ring
on the end Of the rope travels along
the wire and gives the cat the range
of the width of the yard.
Not long ago a bulldog that had
whipped every other dog in the neigh.
borhood discovered the wildcat in the
back yard of the Miles home.
Il was watching from the window
when that old bulldog put his front
paws up on the back fence and looked
over at my wildcat" said Miles.

while. seeming to be thinking to him.

fundamental requirements OF the
equipment in hives is that they be OF
dhe same style and size, with all parts
exactly alike and interchangeable
throughout the apiary. While the
hives and equipment should be 40
simple and inexpensive as possible,
consistent with their various func-
tions, a cheap and poorly constructed
beehive is. all things considered, an
expensive piece Of apparatus.
For comb.honey production the
brood chamber should be of such a
size that by proper management it
may be well filled with brood at the
beginning of the honey flow. SO that
the brood and surplus apartments
snay be definitely separated. A brood
chamber may be considered too large
II by proper management it is not on
an average fairly we'll filled with
brood at the beginning of the honey
flow. and too small if it provides an
average OF less room than the colony
is able to occupy with brood previous
to the honey flow. Unless the bee
Keeper practices feeding, a brood
chamber that does not contain suffi.
cient room for both winter stores and
brood rearing during late summer and
autumn may also be considered too
small. 1t may be well to note that
by this standard, IL the brood chamber
SEEM to be too small the fault may
lie in the management during the
previous autumn, winter or spring.
OF course the brood chamber that is
barely large enough for one colony

The sectional hive in which the

v~antages, especially to the comb

MENDING VENETIAN BLINDS

THE cord of the venetian blind is
mighty apt to break at a crucial
moment when one wants the room in
which il is placed TO look particularly
well. 4 woman in whose house an &C
cident OF this kind happened. realizing
that there was no time in which to
send for a workman to mend the blind.
seized a pair Of steps and went up TO
discover for herself what was wrong.
To her joy she found the business of
mending a simple matter.
Venetian blinds are only screwed TO
the top Of the window sash and are
easily undone with a screwdriver. The
screw which holds the hand cord 10
the window must also be unfastened.
The blind can then be laid gently on
the floor.
To take the old cord out undo the
two pieces of broad tape which are
nailed across underneath the bottom
lath and you will find a knot under
each. Cut of these knots and draw
out the old cord. You can then meas
ure how long the new cord should be
allowing three inches for the knots. In
Withdrawing the cord you Will have

Take the second cord over wheel 2
along to wheel 4. over il and down
through the laths. knOtting it as you
did the other one. Renal the piece OF
tape over the knots and the blind is
ready to go up again.
When It is in place pull both cords
as tightly as possible so that the blind
goes up straight; then. if you like. knot
the cord so as to make it easily and
evenly lowered.
The laths are held in place by being
laid on little strips OF tape and laid
across from the two main pieces that
run up the front and back. If any
laths have fallen out OF place you can
easily readjust them.
While the cord is out of the blind it
is the easiest possible thing to remove
the laths. wash them and lay them
back on the tapes again, ready for re-
threading.
