BEES LOST SEEKING POLLEN
Minnesota Expert Recommends Insects
Be Not Liberated Until Food Sup
ply Is Plentiful.

Bees sometimes get lost, says L. V,
France of the beekeeping division
at University farm, St Paul. They
do so on being turned out in the spring
If they have to go far in search OF
pollen. Therefore, Mr.. France urges
that bees should not be given their
freedom in April until there is plenty
Of pollen available on willows and soft
naples close by.
If there is no pollen available out
side the hives in April, or the weather
is too bad for the bees to go out, the
keeper should provide combs of pollen,
Among other things suggested by
Mr.. France for bees just given their
freedom are these:
Clean water in a warm nook in the
bee yard.
Food enough to last until May 20
in the form of sugar, sirup, or combs
of honey saved from the previous
year.
Protection against cold weather I'M
til May Is or 20 by wrapping each
hive with several thicknesses of heavy
wrapping or building paper.
Prevention Of rObhing by reducing
size of entrances.

GROWING SOY BEANS IN CORN
Farmers Pleased With Results OBJ
tained by Using Crops for Siiage
and Hogging Down.

The Iowa agricultural experiment
station says that Iowa farmers who
have been growing soy beans in corn
for silage or hogging down, furnish
almost conclusive proof of the value
Of the combination.
Some 800 farmers throughout the
state co-operated with the experiment
station in the growing Of these crops.
Over 700 of these men were well
pleased with the results and said that
they would use the combination of
soy beans and corn more extensively
In the future. More than half of the
number of co-Operators reported that
the yield of corn was increased rath-
er than decreased.
Statements such as Didn't decrease
corn YIELD" Coming crop to mix with
corn silage," every good crop" expect
to plant beans with every hill Of corn
next year." were included in the farm
ers' reports to the experiment station.
Soy beans are high in protein con-
tent, and therefore the mixed silage is
richer than corn silage. The corn
yield is not decreased on soil Of good
fertility, and a yield of a little less
than One-half a ton of soy beans per
acre is received. These facts should
make soy beans popular crop.

HOG WALLOW is
OF IMPORTANCE
Sanitary Type Advocated by the
United States Department
of Agriculture.
ANIMALS SUFFER IN SUMMER
Provision Should Be Made for Intake
and Outlet So That 1t Can Be
Filled and Drained Often to
Keep Clean and Fresh.

prepared by the United States Depart
ment of Agriculture)
1t is as natural for the hog to want
&c wallow as it is for the small boy
to scurry to the old swimming hole
with the first breath of spring. Hot
weather is hard on fat animals, the
portly pOrker included. That is why
a well-made, sanitary hog wallow is
like a COney island bathing beach for
the hogs. A popular and serviceable
type of wallow advocated by the United
States department of agriculture
should be made of concrete about II
inches in depth and large enough to
accommodate the herd of hogs. The
wallow should be supplied with n
satisfactory intake and outlet so that
it can be filed about twO-thirds full
of water and drained every few days,
or as often as is necessary to keep the
pool fresh and clearly.
Face Two Extremes.
The hog grower in many of the lead
ing pork producing states faces two
temperature extremes during the year.
During the winter, unless he provides
comfortable houses and warm quar-
tiers, his hogs are likely to suffer from
the cold, while in the summer sea-
son he must handle the animals under
conditions of extreme heat. Any
animal as fat as the average hog
which Is to be marketed ia the late
summer or early fall suffers greatly
during hot weather, and unfortunately
many hog farmers neglect to provide
shelter and protection for their hogs
from the extreme heat. During hot
weather hogs need plenty of shade
natural shade such as is furnished by
trees and bushes being the best.
Temporary Shelter.
Where natural shade and shelter
are not available, the hog owner
should put up a temporary shelter by
building a framework about four feet

HAD LITTLE WILLIE SCARED
Bears Head, Served in Realistic Style,
Looked to Youngster as If
Very Much Alive.

Governor Goodrich of Indiana said
in a discussion of old Christmas Gus
toms:
The old customs that have fallen
out of use were little too coarse
and brutal for these ultra-retined
times. Take, for instance, the old
custom of serving a bOar's head At
the Christmas dinner.
II know a rich man who thought
he'd revive the old customs on Christ
mas, and accordingly a bOar's head
formed the dinner, a lemon in the
mouth and the fierce eyes staring
classify straight ahead. The effect
was tremendous.
THE rich man, serving slices of the
head, came to the turn Of his little
son.
