BEES NOT POISONED
BY ORCHARD SPRAYS
Results of Carefully Conducted
Investigations by Prof. c.
w. Woodwork.

There has long been a belief that
spraying blossoms with arsenate of
lead or other poisons would kill the
bees that visited the blossoms after
spraying in their search for honey.
Prof. C. w. Woodwork of the Uni
versity of California has conducted
some careful investigations in the
Pajaro valley, which are related by
him in Gleanings in Bee Culture,
showing that this fear is groundless,
that the spraying can be done at the
time best for codling moth control, and
that the bees can visit the blossoms
without injury.
A colony of bees from the university
at Berkeley was shipped to Watson
vile and placed in the midst of 40
acre apple orchard at jacksonville just
before a heavy spraying with arseni-
calls was given. After being kept
there for some time without apparent
injury to the bees, the hive was
shipped back to Berkeley and kept
closed until a number of the bees
were dead. These were taken out
and a considerable amount of arsenic
was found upon them, but 1t was all
on the outside. coming there by con-
tact, as would dust or powder Of any
kind. No internal arsenic was found
and the arsenic apparently had moth
ing to do with their deaths There
was likewise no trace of arsenic in
the honey gathered by the bees from
the blossoms sprayed with arsenicals.
The right idea is to spray when the
blossoms need it. Keep bees If con-
venient to pollinize the blossoms. but
do not worry about the effect of the
spraying on them. m

USE SWEET CLOVER
TO IMPROVE SOILS
Kansas Agricultural College
Shows Where Newly Recog-
nized Crop Is Profitable.

Sweet clover excels alfalfa as ;
cattle, pasture and is superior to al
other crops for improving soils de
ficient in organic matter, though i
has been lately overrated as a croI
to grow under all circumstances
These conclusions are reached as q
result of Investigations by the agron
omy department Of the Kansas State
Agricultural college.
'In the past two years." says c. c.
Cunningham, assistant in co-opera-
tive experiments, there has taken
place In the popular mind radical
change in opinion regarding sweet
clover Once considered a noxious
weed, it is now recognized as yalu-
able crop. To large extent sweet
clover is deserving of this change OF
opinion regarding it, but, like any
new crop that suddenly comes into
favor, it has been overrated for grow
ing under all conditions. 1t has
proved valuable. however, under GER
tain conditions and for special pur-
poses.
/, Sweet clover can be grown to ad-
vantage for hay on some soils not
adapted to alfalfa or red clover. 1t
ia, however, substitute for these
crops and is useful for hay when the
more valuable kinds cannot be sue
cessfully grown.
Sweet clover is Of value as pas
ture and soil improvement crop and
will undoubtedly be extensively util-
ICED for these purposes. Properly
handled, sweet clover will furnish
more pasture than most other pas
ture crops, especially on the poorer
types of soils. 1t excels alfalfa as a
pasture, for cattle, in that it rarely
causes bloat Sweet clover is su-
perior 10 all other crops for use in
improving soils deficient in organic
matter"

METHOD FOR COOLING CREAM
After Superintendent Plan to
Place Can in Cold Water.
(By PROF. c. LARsEN.)

Cool the cream at once after separa-
ton. This can be done by placing the
cream can in a tank of fresh, cold
water. A good plan is to have the
water used for stock run through this
milk cooler before it reaches the gen.
eral stock water tank. This method
cools the cream during all seasons,
and in addition it prevents freezing
during the winter. Do not put tho
can cover on tightly. A loose cover
allows the animal odor to pass on.
and at the same time prevents the
dust from getting into the cream.
Never allow freshly SKINNED warm
cream to be mixed with the previous
ly skinued cold cream until the for.
mer has \been well cooled. The warm
cream causes the germs to develop
and they SPUR and spoil the cream.

of humidity in the air in the fall varies
in the different farming sections, but
it is a good plan to provide a crib that
will give the greatest amount of ven-
tilation possible to secure at reason
able cost.
Ventilation in two-story corn crib
may be helped out by using woven
wire corn mesh inside of the stud
ding. This prevents the ears of corn
from stopping up cracks between the
wooden Stats. When wire mesh is used
it is not necessary to have any wood

chance, but through years of proper
breeding for certain characteristics
and specific function
During hot, dry weather when flies
are troublesome, it pays to let the
calves stay inside all day and let
them run in the yards or pasture at
night.
One of the greatest points in feed
ing calves is not to overfeed.
We need to have a clear idea of
what breeding does, or what feeding
does, or what care and environment
do, if we secure and maintain
profitable dairy herd
Milk-giving is a habit that responds
to fragment or neglect. 1t is a
function that may be developed or d.
minished by the treatment accorded
the COW.
Lines of breeding which century
has evolved and stamped with ap-
prevail, ought to prove safer than the
theories of a single mind, made tan
gible in a few heterogeneous crosses.

The corn crib wings are built con-
siderably lighter than the main por-

corn in the ear is Aghter than wheat,
and Is less liquid than smaller grains,
SO that the pressure on the sides is
less.

DR.. BAXTER NEXT
UPON THE GRILL
State Board of Control Finds Cloth
ing Delivered at Hastings
Asylum Below Grade.
SUPERINTENDENT IS INVOLVED


(From staff Correspondent) y
LINCOLN, Dec. 21.-- Especial Tel
egram. )--Another superintendent Of
a state institution is on the carpet
charged with mismanagement. This
time it is DR.. NJ. w. Baxter, who. it
is charged, has permitted contractors
to deliver clothing to the state insane
asylum at Hastings, of which he is
superintendent, very much below the
grade of the samples submitted.
Commissioners Gerdes and Kennedy and
Secretary Mathews of the board Of con-
troll. have been in Hastings for two days
checking up the clothing and comparing
II with the samples submitted. 1t is
said that some OF the clothing Is 80 pei
cent below the quality OF the samples.
j. H. SPOTS. local dealer, who Sc
cured the contract, is said to have agreed
to take hack the inferior suits.
Whether Superintendent Baxter is d.
rectly responsible for the deception can
not be told until the board OF control
completes its Investigation but sys-
tematic investigation Is being held. and
It is said that It has been shown that
the superintendent had relieved the stew
ard of the institution, whose duty II is
to receive and have charge of all sup
plies, from handling the goods which II
Is now claimed are below grade, and
