With the Wax and Honey Makers.

Bees winter better if they have part
honey and part sugar to live on during
cold weather.
Look out for the weak colonies of
bees and give them honey from those
that have more than they need. Thou
sands of colonies Starve to death every
winter. If you feed the bees strip be
sure it is not too thin or trouble will
result. Three parts water and four
parts sugar will be about the right mix
ture.
1t is economy to buy hives in the fat
and put them together at leisure time,
rather than to buy them all nailed and
painted. as the latter cost about one
third more. Even a novice can put
hives together without trouble. as ma
chine made hives are so accurately cut

WHAT'S IN A FARM NAME?

Every Comfortable Homestead 10
Worth Its Own Distinctive Title.
Every good man and woman has
cherished memory Of the old home
where childhood's days were spent, and
II that old home was on a farm that
farm should have a name that will
distinguish II from all other farms Of
the county.
Nearly every other business house,
factory or 1rm has adopted name and
a credit Is established. Every farm Is
worthy Of a name. and every farmer
can make q reputation and establish a
credit for his farm and its products
through intelligent, careful study and
the adoption Of approved modern meth
DDS Of procedure.
A well chosen name lends dignity to
place and Is a sort Of trademark
which distinguishes it and Its products;
1t characterizes its owner as a man of
pride and stimulates all who are inter
ested in 1t or its products to do and to
be the best.
We believe that well selected name
will furnish an incentive for better
farming; that all implements, tools, We
hicles, crates and products whenever
possible should have the name of the
farm indelibly stamped upon them; that
it should adorn every entrance to the
farm and be printed upon all stationery
used on the farm. We believe that the
name should relate to some distinct
feature of the farm, its location, topog-
raphy or products.-Illinois Farmers
Institute.

Throughout the winter period Of In

to refreshments it began again and
lasted till supper time and was con-
tinued again in the evening. The
meetings were held in the open. air
and the deep interest felt in the pro-
ceedings was manifested by the fact
that crowds gathered around each
platform and listened for hours With
close attention to the different adj
dresses. -,
Prominent among the speakers
were Gearge E. Vincent, President Of
the Minnesota University, who ar
rived in the morning and spoke at
intervals during the entire day and
evening, and Governor Eberhart who
arrived about four o'clock and who
addressed q monster open air meeting
about seven o'clock in the evening
and later addressed a standing room
only" audience at the opera house.
The Governor was in his happiest
mood and held the closest attention Of
his audiences.
We are inclined to think that for
real practical value this meeting did
more for West-central Minnesota
than any that has been held. It dem
onstrated beyond all doubt that this
was a corn and alfalfa country par
excellence, question that heretofore
was somewhat in doubt, even in the
minds of the residents.
Much credit is due to Frank MUIR
ply, President of the Association;
Mr.. Highbee, Superintendent of the
Agricultural School at Morris; Mr..
Harrison, the Secretary; and the cit
izens of Morris who devoted their
every effort to make the meeting the
success it was.

in every line Of endeavor except good
roads. OF the 100000 miles Of
highways in this country, less than
10 per cent have been improved and
less than 40 per cent of the 10 would
be called improved highways. The
National Association stands for the
fair and equal distribution of federal
funds for the improvement of the
roads.
"At the time of the building of the
great railroad systems of the country
the United States contributed % per
cent of the actual cost of construction
in the way of public lands, which rep
resents at the present time 4 per cent
of the entire valuation of all railroads.
Vast sums have aslo been spent in i'm
proving rivers and harbors, but only
an Insignificant amount has been con-
tributed by the federal government
for, the improvement of the highways
of the nation.
"At the present time it costs the
farmer an average Of % cents per ton
per mile to transport his crop. Under
improved highways this would be re-
duced to 8 cents. At the present time
it costs $1.25 more to transport ton
of wheat nine miles than it costs to
make shipment from New York to
Liverpool"
The National Highway Association
have surveyed several routes across
the country from East to West and
North to South. The so-called North
ern route, from Boston to Seattle,
runs through this city. This route is
called the "Scenic" route. This city
is also junction point of highway
surveyed from international Falls to
Galveston, Tex. Some distant day
this mans town will be right on the
map from good roads viewpoint.
The National Highway Commits
sion was started by % public-spirited
millionaires contributing $4,000 each
with whic to carry on the woark. Mr..
Davis stated that the Association de-
sired to get as many members in
every community through which their
surveys ran as possible. The price of
membership had been placed at $3.50
each. A committee consisting of
Frank Minette, Mel Bleid and Fay
Sprague was appointed to work with
Mr.. Davis in securing members.

SAUK CENTRE SENDS OVER
DELEGATION FRIDAY.

Probably one of the most unique,
and we might add successful fairs,
expositions or shows, it is hard to
name it and name it right, which has
been held in Minnesota for many a
moon was the Corn and Alfalfa show
held in Morris on Wednesday, Thurs
day and Friday of last week
If score of years ago q man had
possessed the temerity to predict that
in the year of our Lord 1913, there
would be held in western-centra Min
nesota fair at which would be made
an exhibit of corn that would rival
anything ever exhibited in Iowa, nli-
nois or any of the great corn growing
states he would have been chara a:ter-
lied as visionary dreamer, to put it
mildly, and if five years ago any one
had been bold enough to prophesy
that at this meeting it would be DEM
onstrated that this same region was
capable Of producing as much of that
queen of forage plants s-A'falfa-
per acre, as those states where it is
considered indigenous to the soil he
would have been considered q fit can
Gidate for the bug house. Yet, at this
Morris meeting both of these things
were demonstrated beyond preadven-
tpre.
Lack of space prevents as from par
ticuIarizing the different exhibits, and
many special features Of this show
bat they were Of very high order
AND attracted much attention and
favorable comment.
The attendance, owing to the de-
lightful weather, exceeded all expec-
tations, in fact the crowds fairly
swamped the town, and many of the
entertainment features had to be cal
led off for lack Of any place large
enough to accommodate the crowds.

attendance was immense, the crowd
was not quite as large as that at the
Stearns county fair on st: Cloud day,
but there was q much larger percent
