now, so that when cold weather sets
in for good the hives can be quickly
placed In position.
Once more: Never set the hives
fat on the floor of the cellar-as some
people do. Bees must have fresh air,
and be kept free from dampness.
Every stormy day in which the hens
are allowed to wander about without
shelter, adds to the discrepancy In the
egg basket.
OF course we can wait until stormy

When hogs are handled In large

This system has the advantage of en-
abling the breeder to handle his hogs
with less expenditure Of labor and
time than is possible If they are scat

When such house seems desirable
1t may be cheap and simple In con
