Facts for the Public.
Tho National ltee-Keepcn Convention, In
eilon at New Yorltj Oct. 10 to 19th, 1877,
aw&ro of tbo general lack ol Information
concerning Improved tnethodi of apiculture
and Its products, respectfully submit the fol
lowing statement of facts for general Infor
mation concerning a largo sourco of perso
nal and national revcuuu In preserving tho
honey which God has caused to flow so
abuodanlly In tho vast and varied flora of
our country:
1. It Is now only a few years slnco tho In
vention of movable comb Airci has opened up
new era In bee keeping, and placed it on
the basis of n successful business pursuit.
Such hlvts.adiipted to climate, furnish every
facility fur Intelligent management of bees
by regulating swarming, guarding against
moths, and manipulating both bees and
'comb.
2. The Inventors of the extractor or honey
linger, a machluo which empties the honey
from the combs by centrifugal force, with
out injury, so that the combs may bo re
turned to the bees, marks another great step
In apiculture. Thus virgin honey, free from
foreign admixture Is obtained, having the
flavor of the flower from which it is drawn.
3. The further Invention of artificial comb
foundation, made of pure wax, first success
fully Used to a largo extent this scasou.com
pletes the requisites for placing bce-keepiog
on the bmta of a great industry In our coun
try. Dees receive this artificial comb found
atloh with readiness as receptacles both for
honey and brood.
4 Simultaneous with the first and all nf
these Improvements, tho Introduction ot
Italian bees and Improved modes of rearing
queens, of transporting and. Introducing
them to colonies, has greatly Improved the
value nf the honey gatherers, both because
of the superiority of the Italian bee and the
Introduction of new blood. New blood pre
vents tie danger from in nnd-Iu breed
iug. 0. The great drawback to apiculture is
tho ttimj of tho bee. Danger from thii
source is now largely overcomo by the slm
pie appliances used for tho protection of the
person and for subduing the bees. The
most vicious colony may bo subdued in a
very few minutes,
(i. To consumers of honey, a few facts are
necessary in this article to preserve them
from Imposition. Nice white comb speaks
for itself and is generally admired, but the
price many lovers of honey cannot ftftord.
It makes a beautiful dish for the table but
is no better than extracted honey. Ail
comb is vi.ix,nnd wax in tho stomach is per
fectly Indigestible. Extracted honey is the
pure liquid honey as it is taken from the
combi by the honey slinirer, freo from any
foreign admixture. It is entirely different
from what is known in this market as drain
ed honey. Consumers help to impose upon
themselves by the false idea that pure hon
ey will not granulate They desire ungran
ulated honey and dealers will attempt to
supply the demand. Almost all pure honey
will granulate when exposed for some time
to light and cold. The granulated state is
fine evidence of pure honey. Much of the
jar honey heretofore s"ld in the markets,and
recommended not to granulate, is a very in
ferior article, composed largely of glucose
or some inferior substance. Granulated
honey can be reduced to its liquid state In a
few moments by placing the jar in warm
water. When thus liquified it so remains
for some time before again crystalizing.
Consumers may bo sure of a good whole
some article by purchasing granulated hon
ey and reducing it.
7. To producers. By full use of improve
ments in bee-keeping, the honey crop of
America may be almost Indefinitely increas
ed and become a great source of national
revenue. None need fear over-production.
The homc demand and consumption is
largely increased whenever people learn to
know the superiority of such honey. Deal
era lu N. V. have already commenced a
large export trade, and they tell us that
their only dllllculy is in procuring honey n
proper shape and quantity to supply the
growing demand. Trade demands that they
t be put up in nice, attractive packages, and
In small parcels or jars so as to be readily
handled by grocers and consumers. Honey
was for centuries the principal sweet known,
and Is one of the most healthful of all. Im
provement in 'refining sugars have within
the last two or three centuries led to its
general adoption. Why may not also new
Improvements in apiculture restore It to its
true placo as a general favorite which was
lost by bad management and the consequent
corresponding limited supply?
We believe that improvements in bee
keeping as compared with old methods are
not less than thoso seen In railroads and
steamboats as compared with former modes
of travel.
For mutual information we would advise
the organization of local societies and con
ventions to further this business among all
Interested In apiculture.

Sand for Cattle Uediliiir.
Sand if not the best, is one of the best ar
ticles in use for bedding cattle. It Is a
good deodorizer, and ke?ps tho stable sweet.
As the cattle work it back into the trench
under their feet, it mixes with the manure,
and thus divides It and makes It more suita
ble for the use of plants. If the distance to
haul is not too tar, Its very cheapness ought
to recommend Its use. In barns that have
no cellars, were it used freely, it would ab
sorb a large amount of urine that is now
wasted. Soil and muck are dirty things to
use In the stable, and sand is clean; Then,
too, It is a nice thing to use under hen roosts
to receive the droppings, which can be easi
ly raked off aud kept in barrels, and in
priog mix with fine cow manure one part
of the former to two parts of the latter. This
being shoveled over, thoroughly two or
three times, makes a mass of rich manure.
A large handful of this in a hill will set corn
to growing finely. Flowers, too, grow and
blossom far better iu soil that has an ad
mixture of sand. So clayey and peaty soils
are benefitted by its combination with them
and rice vena. When spread on heavy soils
in grass, it produces more effect than any
chemical manure I have ever seen used,

OR CLEANING j'AINT. Hie best soap
for cleaning paint is made by takinu one
ounce pulverized borax, one pound best
brown soap, cut in small pieces, aud three
quarts of water; put all Iu a kettle; set I
on the back part ot the stove, or range, un
til the soap is dissolved, stirring frequently
it must not come to a boll ; use with a (Jeco
of old, soft white flannel. It cleans paint
without Injuring It ; It Is also beneficial for
the hands, and much better for washing
slothes than any other soap.

A farmer residing near New York, In this
State, has kept a record of tho number of
tramps visiting his premises In quest ot food.
The number from April 1st, 1877, to No

1C per week.

A gray-haired drunkard staggered into a
temperance meeting In Philadelphia, Hnd iu
a maudlin way tried to make a speech The
Chairman utilized him as "an awful ex
ample," making him stand up beforo the
people to be prayed for, and exortlng them
lo beware of becoming such a wreck. Over
u hundred signatures to the pledge wero thus
obtained, including that of the illustrative
drunkard.
About three years ago, a murder case
known as the Wainwright tragedy excited
almost as much iuterest in Loudon as the
recent Penge case, and as a matter of course
a drama, which draws in the provinces, was
founded on it. hile this was last month
being acted at a travelling theatre in Market
Harborough, an incident occurred which
nearly proved fatal. The represntativo of
Henry U ainwnght having been duly pin
ioned and the rope adjusted, was allowed to
swing when the stool upon which his feet
should have rested slipped from underneath
them. The man was observed struggling
and gasping for breath, and he was prompt
ly cut down, hut not before he had turned
black in the face.
A new difficulty confronts the Philadelphia
Exhibition. Cold weather has come, and
there is no money to buy heating apparatus
or fuel. The Philadelphia Timet snyt: "They
have had their 'Exhibition Day.' when the
raised admission feo of fifty cents was charg
ed, and all the employees required to pay it,
out of charity, as it were ; their 'Ox-Roast
Day,' when all the tramps within a radius of
many miles came aud joyously partook of
the savory beef; their 'Colored People's
Day,' when the white folks attended in force
from curiosity, and the colored population
stayed at home, because they did not relish
the distinction of race, and their numerous
other 'days,' which reached no nearer the
object aimed at a replenishment of the
treasury tuan did the three occasions
mentioned." It is likely that the efforts to
prolong the show will be abandoned.
The Hindoos, tired of their passive posl
tion in the matter of conversation, have dc
tertnined to organize a mission for the pro
pagation of Urahmiuisra among the benight'
ed English Christians of Australia. Surad
sehi,the new apostle, Is an eminent Brahmin
of Benares, who, while recently visiting
the Australian colonies, was struck by the
fearful prevalence of drunkenness among the
inhabitants. Returning to his nativo coun
try, he called together a meeting of Brahmins
at Benares, the holy city of the Hindoos
and laid before them details of the misera-
ble and degraded condition of their fellow
subjects in Australia. It was unanimously
agreed that the only lasting remedy would
be the conversion of the Australians to a
better and a purer faith. A large sum of
money has been subscribed, and several
Brahmins have placed themselves at the dis
posal of Suradschi, who is busily engaged in
translating portions of the Ycdas into the
English tongue, for the use of mission'
aries,
Mrs. Bennett was a medium highly es
teemed by the Spiritualists of Boston. Her
seances were made interesting by the ap
