Platforms to the Point.

A platform brief and to the point as sug.
gested, would be highly welcome innovation by
the impending national conventions. The trouble
is that the platform-makers arc always beIeag-
uered by spokesmen for all sorts OF interests
and organizations backing projects calling for ma
tional legislation, all insisting upon the indorse-
ment OF their particular proposals. The ten
deney has been for years 10 string out the plat
forms by adding plank on this subject and a
plank on that subject, with view TO attracting
votes or preventing OBJECTIONS. Conditions seem
favorable TO eliminating lot Of these minor
declarations, or al least cutting them down to
mere enumeration. Al any rate, the day Of fancy
rhetoric and lengthy recitals Of long-ago history
is past II the platform is intended to command
more than mere momcntary notice it must be
confined chiefly to the live, throbbing issues that
go TO the core OF current life and that must be
met within the next few years to smooth the way
Tor national development and insure the future

High DER his canvas coffin
But, silence TO doubt and dole
There's quiet harbor somewhere
For the poor weary soul.

CRITICAL TIME FOR
ACOLONY OF BEES
Owner Should See That There Is
Abundant Supply of Honey
Feed Sugar Sirup Warm.

(By WESLEY FOSTER, State Bee In
spector, Boulder, Colo)
Colonies OF bees with good queens
are now breeding up rapidly, and con-
sequently are using large amounts of
stores. Often the best and strongest
colonies run short of honey first The
spring of the year is the critical time
for colony of bees. The owner should
see to it that every colony has an
abundance OF honey for it's needs.
Combs of sealed honey may be taken
from colonies that can spare them, or
feeding of sugar sirup may be done.
The giving of combs of sealed honey
is recommended if there is little or no
disease in the apiary, otherwise, sugar
sirup should be fed. Sugar sirup
should be fed warm and otherwise half
or two-thirds water. See that the
sugar is thoroughly dissolved. Feed
ing should be done in the evening so
the bees will have all the sirup taken
up by morning.

DAIRY IL /
RATION FOR DAIRY COWS
High Protein Concentrates Other Than
Corn Must Supplement Rough
aae-Oats Are Favored.

With fodder alone as roughage cows
must have some high protein concen-
trates and they must be other than
corn products. If the oats are worth
less than middlings, it will be well
to make them part of the ration.
Rye is as harmless as any other grain
to a pregnant animal when not affect
ed with ergot. If it is worth no more
per pound than corn it may well be
used in part. Cottonseed meal at the
present time is much cheaper source
of protein than linseed meal, and with
oats and rye or wheat product in the
ration also it may be used to supply
the deficit of protein. However, if any
cows appear to need more laxative
ration, better substitute linseed, at
least in part, for the cottonseed meal.
It matters little to the COW whether
the corn is shelled before being
ground, or even whether it is ground,
so long as the cobs are soft enough
to enable her to eat them readily.
But to compound a ration from the
list submitted: Using the corn in the
form of meal and grinding both oats
and rye, use one part by weight of
each of these and two of cottonseed
meal.
