PLEASURE IN KEEPING BEES,

(By C. N. BENTLEY

Interesting and profitable business
than beekeeping. Not only Is this true
for the fruitgrower and farmer. but to
the residents Of cities, those In mer-

OF the best beekeepars are women:
True 1t is that time and attention and
preliminary knowledge are necessary;
but experience will be gained rapidly
when the living bees are studied In
connection with printed instructions.
A visit to an apfary conducted by a
practical beekeeper will furnish Valu<
able suggestions and interest In the
work. No one who wishes to derive
the greatest pleasure and profit from
his bees should expect the little fel-
lows to do good work uneless proVid-
ed with suitable hives. Do not for a
moment attempt to keep bees In hol-
low logs or plank boxes; instead have
modern hives which can be opened
from time to time so that the true

one generation Of plant life to estab.

the union Of two oi~t;nct types may
prove a cross that Is liable or the
reverse.
In our own seed saTing the utmost
care Is necessary to bring the result
up to the standard. We have ali seen
two pieces Of grain sown side by side,
with seemingly similar conditions.
The one was treated with extra seed,
thoroughly cleaned to remove all
weeds. The other had only fair seed,
sown as it was gathered from the field.
Perhaps 1t had been tested and proof
given that It would grow" And this
was deemed sufficient. But the har.
vest was on the side Of the good seed.
If you have an extra good crop Of
corn, the best ears, carefully selected
both as to the number Of ears on a
stalk and the size and shape Of each
Ear, will bring much more next spring
when sold by the Dushei.
They must be carefully dried. II

SOME LESSONS IN FLOWING
Burrows Should Be Kept Straight 90
Possible, Avoiding Triansles or
selIows-Shaped Pieces.

By J. @. STEIN.)
There are different ways to plow'
One way is straight, and the other
must be crooked, Of course.
By: the straight way is meant keep
ing the furrows straight as possible.
and square each piece SO there will
not be any triangles or bellows-shaDed
pieces.
Have the field true on all sides;
that, Is, 1t may be longer one way
than the other, but each side should
be straight. so If you plow straight
when you start you will have the dead
furrows even and no wedges at the
end. -.
There will also be no odd shaped
pieces In the center to make LOT
Of extra turning.
The crooked way is used by many,
who start a furrow any old place on
one end Of the field and drive to the
other end, without mark to 90 by.
A little crook with people OF this kind
does not seem to be Of much import
ance, but crooked burrows take extra
time and are nuisance In general.
Another thing which saves much
time, particularly In harvest, Is q
space which should be left between
the fence and the field unplowed.
This should be about 16 feet wide. and
should be sown to grass. This strip
will save going through the grain
with a binder, and back, and It also
saves the hired man a lot Of extra
work In shocking, as he can start as
soon as the reaper does and will lot
have to wait until q swath is cut tn
which to place the shock.
