Monaelians Great Meat Eaters.

Inhabitants Of Mongolia are great
meat eaters, living in some cases en-
tirely on mutton. It Is not uncommon
for q Mongol to consume ten pounds
Of this meat at one sitting. He also
compares other foods by asking If
they are as good as mutton. The Mon
Sgol puts mutton fat in his tea, which
is prepared with milk from the poor
est grade Of tea, pressed into bricks.
He drinks enormous quantities Of this,
30 cups a day being no uncommon
amount for an adult. The natives eat
whenever opportunity comes, there
being no regular meal hours.
Water Is scarce in Mongolia, a
few wells along the caravan route
furnishing the entire supply. During
the winter and spring the camel is
the only animal that can cross the
desert and subsist on the dried
ND grasses. At this season Of the year
blocks Of ice are carried for water
supply, and In other seasons two large
tubs are carried on each camel. one

ALL WENT INTO THE BILL
Moroccan Ruler found in the End
That He Paid for His
Hours of Bridge.

How the sultan of Morocco, Mulal
Hafid, played bridge with his dentise
has been amusedly told.
A close friendship sprang up oe-
tween the sultan and an EnSilSh
dentist, and as often as not, orloSe
took the place of dentistry. the
dentist would arrive with his tlmio
lady assistant, and all his implements
of torture, only to be invited to slt
down at the table and play cards. Ihe
lady-assistant was very young and
very shy, and was more accustomed to
play children's card games than
bridge. A fourth player would be
found and the ill-assorted party COM
pleted. The ex-sultan enjoyed himself
immensely. He generally won, per-
haps by never permitting the trembling
lady assistant to be his partner. The
points were one franc hundred, so
no very serious damage could be done;
but rich as the sultan was, he re-
ioiced more in his humble winnings at
bridge than over his many thousands
In the banks. Not little of his en-
joyment was owing to the fact that he
felt that he was doing" the dentist.
"He comes,'' the ex-sultan would say,
ITO mend my teeth and to take my
gold, and in the end win his francs"
But one day the climax came. The
teeth were excellently repaired-the
work was of the best-there was no
more to be done but to pay the bill
and the bill very naturally and rightly
included all the bridge hours, at so
much per hour. 1t was the most ex-
pensiye bridge Mulai Hafd ever
played.

HOW TO PREVENT
BEES SWARMING
Advice and Suggestions on Sub
iect Given by Professor
Conrad of Clemson.
BROOD CHAMBER TOO SMALL
Emigration Of Honey Gatherers Can
Be Greatly Reduced by Proper
Mana0ement-How Swarm May
Be HIved to Best Advantage.

One of the problems of the beekeep-
er, says Prof. A. F. Conrad, entomolo-
gist, is how to prevent bees from
swarmlng. The following questions
and answers taken from Information
extension service of Clemson college,
give in brief form expert advice and
suggestions on this subject:
1. Why do bees swarm?
The bee colony is divided into
workers, drones (or male bees), and
a queen. Normally the queen alone
lays eggs, and to perpetuate their race
new colonies are necessary. This Is
their natural way of Increase.
2. What are conditions that induce
swarming?
(a) The brood chamber may be too
small, allowing too little egg-laying
space. (b) There may be too little
storage space. (c) There may be lack
of ventilation. (d) There may be too
many. drones.
8. At what season is swarming most
frequent?
Mostly In early spring. but 1t may
occur at any time during honey flow
II conditions named in No. are not
corrected.
4. Can swarmlng be entirely pre-
vented7
No; but 1t can be greatly reduced
by proper management.
8. Why should swarming be pre-
vented as far as posslblef
To keep the working force together.
One hive full of bees is worth more
than any number of weak colonies.
@. Are there two queens in the hive
at swarming timer
Generally not. The young queen
has not yet come out of the queen
cell. The old queen leaves with the
first swarm.
Z. How may swarming be reduced
or possibly prevented?
(a) II the brood chamber becomes
crowded, add another brood chamber.
(b) II bees cluster out, It may be due
to a crowded condition, or lack of ven
tilation. ventilate the hive and add
supers when necessary. II possible
remove drone comb and also queen
cells.
8. How may a swarm be hlved to
best advantage7
(a) When the swarm has settled,
shake or brush 1t into the new hive.

The four hundredth anniversary of
the birth of Christophe Plantin, the
noted French printer of the sixteenth
century, will be commemOrated with
appropriate ceremonies In Antwerp
during August. Plantin was n son of
Belgium only through adoption. He
was born somewhere In historic

1t was the peculiar achievement of
Plantin TO bring honor and glory to
the printers trade In the days of Its
infancy. With keen appreciation
of the beauties OF literature, PlantIn
delighted in perfecting his workman

might be published In the most at

tools were those of common work

1J69-15T3-an attempt at n scientific
revision of the text of the Old and

without heating above 145 degrees io
