Bees Knew Humane Farmer

Fred Smith. u Cadillac. Michigan.
resident has always been known as a
thrifty. Industrious farmer of the kind
that believes his horse is no stronger
than himself and that all animals
! physically are no moro nt TO stand
abuse than is the man who abuses
thom. lie is. In word, n humane
farmer and withal an Industrious and
prudent one who realizes the profits
of good treatment toward his dumb
beasts.
n year ago the Smith farm present
ed most up-to-datc appearance. Ev-
cry device known I'm tho proper care
and comfort of stock was installed on
the place and the farmer found that IL
paid. Everything was made az clean
and sanitary as Il could be, and the
result was that Fred Smith became
firmly convinced that the dumb ami
malls under his care appreciated his
every attention. However, there was
one thing he overlooked.
of bees, which had proved To bo a very
good source of profit when the honey
was taken every fall. Two winters
ago disease of some sort spread
among the hives and the following
spring not a bee remained alive. Then
FOR the first time. Farmer Smiths at
tention was drawn TO tho boe hives.
They were very dirty and looked
like decidedly unhealthy quarters even
for bee to inhabit. Smith looked
carefully around at the rest of his fine
farm equipment and wondered If the
bees could have died from lack of
care or from poor housing conditions.
"A bee is only bee" pondered
Farmer Smith TO himself. but then
maybe he'd bo better of and make
more honey in clean. healthy hive.
Maybe l should have looked after my
bees. Perhaps they would have been
alive today"
The bees were all dead, not one re-
manned. but nevertheless as Smith ru-
minated he began an inspection of the
hives and soon found himself uncon-
sciously cleaning them, hardly know
Ing why he did 1t, except that II should
have been done before. He cleaned.
repaired and painted each hive.
In the autumn the hives were mod
ern. sanitary little bee houses but
they had no tenants Smith didn't seem
to care particularly about that. He
felt conscience clear Just because the
houses were clean and 1T TO live I'm.
even though there were no tenants.
Early last spring the houses were still
to let, and when Smith improved his
barns and stock sheds, he also painted
the bee hives once more. Why he did
he didn't know.
One MONDAY, while the Smith family
were seated at dinner. thew board
many bees swarming. They rushed
out OF doors and saw that the air I'm
the vicinity of the hives was fairly
black with bees. swarming. fighting for
chance to enter the newly painted
houses. Whose bees they were was n
mystery, but they took possession of
the hives and there they evidently In
tended to remain.
Yes, sir" asserted Smith. when

the HAIR BEAUTY
THAT BELONGS 70 you

So many who have long known that
hair beauty was certain to follow upon
systematic hair care have been loath to
commence what they mistakenly think
too much trouble. Proper hair care
means only keeping the scalp and hair
perfectly clean by use of some prepar-
alton made for shampooing, not for
general cleansing. You can enjoy the
best that is known for about three
cents a shampoo by getting a package
of Canthrox from your druggist. Dis
solve teaspoonful in a cup of hot
water and your shampoo is ready. After
its use the hair dries rapidly with uni
form color. Dandruff, excess oil and
dirt are dissolved and entirely disap-
pear. Your hair will be so fluffy that
It will look much heavier than it is.
Its luster and softness will also delight
you, while the stimulated scalp gains
the health which insures hair growth.
