Protection for
Bees Necessary
Exercising to Generate Heat
Does Not Improve
Wings of Workers.

Every time a bee flaps its wings 1t
is Just one more flap nearer bee heav-
en-, for bees cannot replace or repair
wOrnout tissues like other animals, b.
A. Slocum of the New York State Col
lege Of Agriculture explained recently.
Winter protection is necessary for
bees because the only way they can
keep warm is to form a cluster in the
hive, and the bees on the inside of the
cluster flap their wings, just as peo-
pie would wave their arms to gener-
ate heat. When the temperature falls
below 81 degrees heat must be gen.
Grated, he says.
Heat Wears Out Bees.
The bees in the cluster fit so tightly
that those on the outside act as an
insulator, the hairs on their bodies in
tertwine and incorporate tiny air par
ticles which increase their insulating
value. The generation of heat wears
out the bees SO that they soon become
old, and if an excessive amount of
heat is needed the colony may die be-
fore spring. At least the bees will be
old and die more rapidly than they
are replaced with young bees, making
a condition which beekeepers have
called "spring dwindling.' 1t is diff
cult to get such colonies in shape
strong enough for the honey flow.
Packing Boxes Useful.
The remedy, Mr.. Slocum suggests,
is to protect the hives with packing
cases and to provide windbreaks.
Many types of packing cases and va
rious insulating materials are salts
factory. Detailed instructions how to
pack bees is given in the free Farm
ers' Bulletin 1912, available at the
Office of publications at the New
York State College of Agriculture.

Most Convenient Form
of Farm Repair Shop

Probably the most convenient form
of repair shop for the farm is build
ing that combines the workshop with
the garage. The car can be taken out
and the machine run in while repairs
are being made. The essentials Of
such building are heat, reasonable
light, and tools. The tools that come
with machines may be sufficient for
most work, although good tools save
time. Heat may be secured from an
old stove which may not meet all the
requirements Of the living room but
which will heat the shop.
The IA by 20 building offers well
arranged combination shop and ga
rage. Plans for 1t may be secured at
cost from county extension agents or
from the college of agriculture at Co.
lumbia, Mo.

Black Knot Treatment
in Plums and Cherries

The only effective treatment for
black knot in plum and cherry trees is
to cut out and carefully burn all the
knots. Destroy entirely any trees that
are badly infested. This disease
spreads so rapidly that quick work is
needed to save clean trees. 1t is be-
lieved that fungicidal spray. like
lime sulphur or bordeaux, at dormant
strength before growth starts is
safeguard for the clean trees, but the
knots themselves must he burned and
careful watch kept during the season
to catch any just starting. When
handling these knots use canvas
gloves, and do not touch the knots or
gloves on clean parts of the tree.

Have Spray Equipment
in Order Quite Early

The fruit grower who runs out his
spraying equipment from winter quar-
tiers in February or early March, in
spects 1t carefully and secures all
needed parts and accessories, is plan
ming ahead profitably and doing much
to prevent costly delays and failure
during the busy spraying season.
Much more time may be had for
careful study and consideration of the
spraying equipment and its needs for
effective spraying work If such mat
tiers are given attention during the
winter before spring spraying work
begins.
Great emphasis should be laid upon
seeing whether the spray pump,
valves. MOBILES, hose and other parts
and accessories work properly.

Peat may be added to clay or sandy
garden soils to improve their water
holding capacity.
Brooder stoves are an excellent
means of warming the laying house
during cold snaps this winter.
It has been costing the federal gov
eminent more than $4,000 a day to
keep down forest fires in national
forests.
When raspberries and blackberries
have beeen harvested, cut out and
burn the old fruiting canes. This will
help hold disease and insect injury in
check.
Sunlight or ultraviolet ray is neces-
sary for the prevention of ricketts, in
dairy calves unless the ration fed the
animals contains ample quantities Of
vitamin D.
Winter rye sown in the spring will
not make a grain crop the first sea-
son, If at all. 1t will make an excel
lent pasture for short time but heads
would not shoot up.
Grapes do we'll on wide range
of soils, but they prefer a well-drained
gravelly loan. They require good
drainage and will suffer far more from
wet feet than from lack Of fertile soil.
Asparagus should be planted as
early as possible in spring. A rich
soil is required. Prepare the piece
of ground this fall by digging it deeply
and in the process work in plenty of
barnyard manure.
Ordinarily. a wooden building needs
repainting about once every three or
four years. An extra good job Of
painting may last six years, but it's
poor business to put off painting until

animals with taste for ice water.
Poultry and live stock on the farm

appreciation In increased profits.

It Is ten years since the first radio broadcast. And
now every tenth person you meet IS a radio an
nouncer.
Think of the change. Ten years ago If a man
didn't care to hear a naval band, a symphony or
chestra, a campaign speech, a terrible tenor or a
football game he could avoid them by staying home!
One decade ago he could get some sleep regardless
of anything President Hoover, Walter Damrosch,
Graham McNamee, General Motors, Lowell Thomas,
the General Electric Company, Rozys Gang or Uncle
Don might &c. Ten short years ago he could spend an
entire day without having anybody ask him, What
did you think G Amos n Andy last night?"
IN 1920 a man didn't have to know the correct time
If he didn't care 70. He could remain in ignorance Of
what the wood instruments. If any, were denoting
halfway through Rubensteins Kamennoi-O st-ow,
Opus 10. if he so desired, and If he didn't care fo-
blackface comedians ne could avoid them by getting
into his carpet slippers and throwing himself on the
couch for the night.
He didn't have TO 90 about the house regarding
each piece OF mahogany furniture in the suspicion
that it might burst into a song, an after-dinner
speech, a vaudeville act or a discourse on yeast cakes
any minute.
Graham McNamee was an unknown soloist who
never announced base hits at football games. Roxy
hadn't become a sentimentalist, Floyd Gibbons
hadn't thought there was any such salary as $1,000
a week. Kingfish and Madame Queen were unheard
OF and American family life wasn't being enlivened
most Of the time by disputes over outside aerials.

That was the era when the child pianist got a
break around the house, when father could OCCASION
ally hold the family interest by doing a new card
trick and when mother could break into Just a
Song at Twilight without arousing any bitterness.
Ten years and We have become a nation Of dial
twisters. The loud speaker has become a symbol OF
American life. Our slogan is Kindly stand by for
your local announcer"
Every other doorway has a sign. Radio Supplies"
over it, four out Of five people are radio entertainers,

Ten years ago we heard from King George only b.

Ten years ago the average man established con-
tact with the worlds great percentages only through

IL is one thing to have honest
doubts and quite another thing to
deal with ones doubts honestly.
Honest doubt IS never captious or
contentious. When the doubter be-

The Honest Doubter

Thomas was a type OF the hon.
est doubter. Here was a man whose
disposition was to believe. whose
heart and mind were attuned to
truth. who desired to be in the
company Of the faithful, and al Of
whose life trends were positive.
But Thomas wanted TO be sure that
he was in the right way. and there
was every justification in his
desires to be sure Of that. 1t was
this that made him so open TO
conviction once the evidence was
clear. He was not the sort of man
to hold back in the traces and
refuse to move stubbornly because
he could see nothing ahead.
On the other hand. he desired
his faith to be intelligent and we'll
