Singularly at the time when war is
apparently imminent, Old Glory does
not float over the post office build
ing. It is the first time for several
years that the Federal building has
been without a flag.
The fact that the flag is not there
is due to the new pole which was
erected this week. The paint is still
wet and before the flag can be hoisted
another coat of paint will be applied
and allowed to dry.

BEES IN WINTER.

Now Is good time to read up or
the latest methods of Bookkeeping and
to plan for the coming season.
Winter is the time to dispose of the
honey surplus, and there are many
ways in which the wide awake bee
keeper can do it.
Take the subject of increase. for in
stance. How few bee men there are
who realize that they are not depend
ent upon the natural swarming fol
rapid increase.
Where the bees are wintered in the
cellar 1t is best to make an occasional
examination to see that it is air tight
and sweep up from the floor the dead
superannuated bees that have crawled
out to die, and also. if necessary, give
ventilation at night.
Too much cold air suddenly let In
upon the bees is bad thing and tends
to make them restless. The better
way is to allow the cool, fresh air tt
enter the other end of the winter re-
pository and be somewhat tempered
and then flow into the compartment
where the bees are kept

acidity Of the soil. For proper UNI
Outstanding of the use of lime in cor
recting acidity and increasing soil fer
tility these factors must be considered.
Fresh burned lime may be distrib-
uted over the field In small piles COW
cred with earth, to be spread with
shovel after the Jumps have crumbled
to pieces. Any other form of lime may
be applied with a manure spreader,
preferably with lime hood. Burned
lime crushed and screened may be APP
piled with drill. A good lime spread
er does the work rapidly and well.
Lime should not be plOwed under, but
should be thoroughly and promptly
mixed with the soil, preferably with
harrow.
The average sour soil examined at
this station would require dn round
numbers) two tons Of burned lime or
three tons Of hydrated lime or four
tons of air slaked lime or ground lime
stone to correct acidity In one acre to
the depth of three feet. If the soil is
distinctly acid it will hardly be worth
while to apply less than ton OF burn
ed lime or it's equivalent. Several such
applications may be necessary, but
once a normal supply is provided it
should not be necessary to apply very
much lime, and it will not be necessary
to do so if close rotations are the rule.

Kopplin & Kopplin, who lost their
blaming and saw mills few weeks
ago by fire, have. been somewhat un-
decided as to whether they would
rebuild, but last week they made up
their mind to put up planning mill
at once, and Harry S. Kopplin, the
Junior member of the firm, left last
Saturday for Minneapolis. Lacrosse

some machinery which has been
offered for sale, and if he finds what
he is looking for he will purchase.

AS the Market Demand Increases New
Varieties Will Be Developed.
AS the business aspects of fruit
growing receive more definite recogni-
ton varieties will be planted more and
more to meet particular conditions
and for special rather than for general
purposes, states the agriculture depart
ment year book in discussing some
promising new fruits. For instance.
under present conditions one of the
most important requirements of a win
ter apple In many sections is that 1t
have good cold storage qualities. Sum-
mer apples were for a long period a
minor commercial consideration, but
for the past ten or fifteen years an Inn
portant demand for them has develop
ed in the eastern markets, which has
greatly stimulated the planting of ear
ly apple varieties in many sections
where formerly they were little val
ued.
AS the market demand for newer
fruits increases and their culture be-
comes of greater commercial impor-
lance, new and better varieties or va
rieties better adapted to commercial
needs will probably be developed. In
the case of such fruits as the avocado
and the mango, the commercial culture
of which is comparatively new. there
are as yet but few varieties in cult

1t now seems to be quite generally
understood that many of our so called

greatly improved by intelligent appli-

fertility Of the soil in several different
ways, all of which are interrelated and
a consideration of which is necessary
to proper understanding Of its effect
in correcting so called "acidity" and
