necessary equipment will be start
ed at once.

ed soon under the direction OF Mr..

soleum was also discussed.
Mr.. Shattuck of the cemetery
committee gave short talk of the
impossibilities of mausoleum

the siege of the severe winters and
the intense heat Of the summer
that prevail in this state.
He also said that after the sur
plus money has been expended for
the care of the mausoleum after
it's erection, all ways of preserv-
ing it financially are ended, leav-
ing the building and the bodies

=. p. Hicks also spoke a short
while on the building of a mau-
soleum, saying he could see no
reason why a city like Owosso
could not have one.
Mr.. Hicks said there are many
people in the city who would like
10 bury their relatives. and be
buried themselves in a dry, well
ventilated tomb. but could not af-
ford private one.
But the building Of one with a
capacity Of 200 Crypts would bring
the price down where nearly all
could have the advantage OF a dry,
decent burial. saying he also could
see no reason why the cemetery
board should oppose the erection
of such a building, when so many
people are willing TO pay for some
thing they really want.
The meeting was brought to a
close by President X. White.

CARPENTER BEE.
Skill and Patience to Provide Safe
Place for Eggs.

Skill and Patience to Provide Safe
Place for Eggs.
An interesting creature is the car
penter bee, whose scientific name is
Xylcopa This little animal possesses
the ferocious look of the bumblebee,
but, it seems, does not sting as does
that bette noir of the small boy in the
country
The carpenter bee bears a patch on
its forehead, whereof it may be dis
tinguished from the bumblebee This
creature has a liking for paling fences
and porches. AS a general thing, it
begins its carpentering work on the
underside of a bit of timber so that
the rain cannot enter it's house when
completed.
This industrious insect does not fol-
low the line of least resistance which
might lead it to soft or decayed tim
bers. It invariably selects a firm joist
and begins on this to bore hole The
implements are of course, the capable
jaws of the bee. and the job is a hard
and tedious one. Most of the work Is
done by the female bee, because the
house is built so that she may have a
place to lay her eggs and hatch her
young.
When the hole has been dug to the
proper depth and an egg is laid she
covers it with a wall of mud or clay
Then she lays another egg and parti
tions this off. In good time her labors
are finished. Then the heat of sum-
mer matches out the little bees and
they dig their way to the outside.
The carpenter bee is said to be one
Of the most remarkable examples of
patience and industry in the insect
world The only fault is that she does
not store honey
