Winter Management of Beca.
A correspondent to the American
Jht Journal, writing trorn Hatllo
Ground, Ind., furnishes t!int niicr with
tho following useful hints :
It in iisiinl for tho nplnrist to look
after his eolonicH of bees mid sco that
each one U in good condition for win
tering. Wo will stiggcKt, ns n ink1,
that from Nov. 1 to tho iniddlo of
December is a good time to look after
tho bee, and sen that they havo a enf
ficienoy of honey to laU them through
tho winter. Perhaps in some seasons
it should be attended to eailier. A
good colony of bees should have at
least IS to 20 pounds of honey stored
in tho combs. It Is now a mooted
question as to whether it Is mlvisn
bio lor a colony to possess a very
great quantity of pollen in their winter
stoics.
It has been asserted, w think very
justly, too, by some who profess to be
well versed in tho science of apiculture,
that pollen is tho li no causo of much
disease amoni bees dining the winter
months, nnd especially very cailyin
tho spring do wo often hear of com
plaints about tho bees having riiurrha'a.
As a remedy for this trouble, wo fur
ther suggest that salt water bo placed
in wooden troughs and set within a few
yaids ofthobges, and then wo think
there will bo but llttlo risk to run in
bees keeping perfectly healthy, if all
other things are m proper condition,
such as ventilation, good, puiefood,
and n comfortable shed, which should
always bo provided for them bv tho
beo keeper. Tito shed should havo an
eastern front, but if it cannot bo thus
made, our next choice would bo a south
trout. All bee sheets should Havo n
close-fitting back aud well-shingled
root.
If these suggestions are attended to
at tho right time, and prepared with a
duo regard to comfort for tho bees as
any other slock on tho larm, we would
havo no causo for complaint. A good
farmer never thinks that ho has done
too much for his horses, cows, sheep
and hogs, bv building good barns, sta
bles and pcus, in which ho can havo all
his J arm stock protected from incio
mcnt weather.
Tho question has often been f.sked,
'Is it necessary to build good winter
quarters for bees 1" "Wo answer that
it is just as essontial as it is for any
other stock. It is true that wo do not
pay as much for a colony of beo3 as wo
do for a cow or a horso ; but it is no
less tho duty of the husbandman to
protect and caro for tho bees by pro
viding the proper sheds for them,
when they "board themselves,'1 and
often return a largo surplus of lion

Winter Care ofTowls.
For keeping fowls through the win
ter tho chief and most essential thing
is a warm hen house. It should be
built so as to afford as much sunlight
as possible and at the same timo givo
protection irom frosts and cold winds,
A southern exposure is, of course, in
all cases tho best. Where fowls have
no special quarters assigned them, as is
tho ease on many farms, they should at
least nave a dry and warm shelter tor
the night. If they havo a house of
their own they shonld be provided in
some way with a place for dusting. A
bos of ashes for this purpose is better
than nothing, a quantity of road dust
saved up during dry weather is better
still, and access to a spot of dry looso
earth is better yet than all.
If eggs aro to bo expected durin
cold weattier it is absolutely necessary
that tho hens should have not only
warm quarters, a place for dusting,
. and pure water, bat a variety ol smta
ble food and access to limo or bones,
As for drink it will not do to allow the
hens to depend upon snow water, or
tho pools that may exist about the
farmyard. They should havo pure,
iresn water day by day.
And in iho matter ot tood, lor a
steady diet nothing takes tho place of
tue common grains, buckwheat anil
corn being the best. It is not a mat
ter of kindness to feed poultry steam
ing hot food during very cold weather
They will need no snch "warming up"
ii they havo proper shelter, and it they
have not, tho hot mixture will afford
only a temporary relief and in the end
leavo them more susceptible to the
coiu man oeiore. .Much experience
proves that hens will not lay or thrive
us well in that way that are "allowed to
stint themselves with hot meals two or
threo times a dav. It is far more lia
ble to produce diseased conditions than
a simple but natural diet of cram
Neither is it a work of real kindness to
keep a supply of grain or other food
constantly before tho poultry. Where
an atttempt is mado to do this the food
is generally mixed with dirt or other
substances before it is all eaten, and
mado unfit for use. It is not relished
as well, nor docs it do as much good as
wnen mey aro led regularly at staled
periods and in proper quantities.

florae vs. Driver.
Wo know a wise driver, who when
he observed while "hitching up" that
tho horses' heads were carried high,
and that they were feeling first-rate,
would say to hnnselt, "Ihere is a
good head of steam on to day, and I
shall bo able to get a good day's work
out of tilt-so fellows if I save it all to
be used to tho best advantage." There
fore ho would speak in as quiet a lone
as possible, would move gently about,
and aim to g.a his learn afield without
any rumpiiH or excitement, and would
bear with a few irreguluiities, such a
getting out of tho funow and pulling
by fits aud starts a tew times. Tho
consequence would bo that when they
were warmed up to their work, they
would move off smoothly and at tho
same titnoouickly, and at tho end of
an hour theio would bo a row of nice,
fresh furrows to show as an equivalent
for tho "steam'' which a more careless
man would havo used up in meio fret
and fume nnd worry and passion. Ex.
A very simplo and effective euro for
cinder in tho eyo is simply one or two
grains of flaxseed. These may bo placed
in tho eyo without injury or pain to
thnt delicate organ, and shortly they
begin to swell aud dissolves a glutin
ous substani'0 that covers the ball of
thu oyc, enveloping any substance that
may be in it. The irritation of cutting
tho membrane is thus prevented, and
the annoyance may booh bo washed
out.
"Cholera!" exclaimed an old Ken
tuoky tanner. "Great Ciesarl mau,
don't toll mo that this country is threat
cued with cholera again I
"Yes, it'fl got into Franco, nnd may
roach America."
"It's terrible," lie groaned. "Why,
last year I lost four of the finest hogs
you over seo witli tho cholera!"
MBut this is not hog cholerai it's Asi
atic cholera."
"Old" looking much relieved, "I wits
nfroii it was hog cholera."

So said Mr. C. II. Vstfall, thu eleo-

many ol whom are the best known and
wealthiist people of Now York, Bos

cities.
"Do wealthy men have much fear of

"As a rule, wealthy men do not keep
valuables in their house, and vet they
nre not sure that, they shall et-capo bur
glarious attacks, and thov don't feel
secure without n tirst-ciass burglar

ago, while 1 was desccendiug stairs at
Elmira, N. Y., with a wire coil in my
hand, I felt as if I had received the
entire chargo from the battery. For
over a half hour I suffered the keenest
agony I did not know but what I
had been fatally injured. After com
pleting my business circuit, I returned
to Boston, and for eighteen months
did not get over tho shock. I lot my
appetite s all lood tasted aliko. 1 could
not walk across the common without
resting several times."
"iuy head whirled, and reeled iiko
a drunken man. I consulted tho best
physicians in a good many largo cities,
but none of them seemed to understand
my case. About a year ago I was in
lbany, and a physician there stated
that I would probably not livo tlnee
months. But to day,' said Mr. West-
fall, and ho straightened himself up
with conscious pride, "so far as I know,
I am in perfect health. I weigh 170
pound?,eat well,sleep well, feel wel laud
am well. One ot my old physicians gave
mo a thorough examination a few
weeks ago, and told mo that I was in
a perlect condition."
"Ion are a very lortuunto man, sir.
remarked tho scribe, "to have escaped

"0, it was not electricity that pros
trated me. It was a uremic convul-

widely advertised medicines failed to

"Tnero is no need of death from
handling electrical wire if tho opera

A Whistling Sueier.
tbout this time of the year certain
Western newspapers habitually begin
the publication of divers stories of in
terest to students iu natural history,
their principal tendency being towards
singular and improving anecdotes of
fish, which are generously and errone
ously regarded as being exceedingly
low iu tho scale of intelligence. Wo
need not go to the West, however, to
find instances ot the power ot thought
in these creatures, as tho tollowing ac
count of an incident that lately occur
red m tins city will testify. A certain
livery-stable keeper, who is an enlliu-
iastio fisherman, has iu his office a siz
able aquarium, in which are placed an
assortment of tho principal fresh water
lood tisues ot :Now J!.ngland. Among
them is a sucker which ho caught
about a year ago. Now this stable-
keeper is fond of music, and is enntm
ually whistling, and when ono day a
customer looking nt tho peculiar mouth
of tho sucker, remarked jokingly that
if the fish only gave his mind to it he
ought to whistle better than his owner,
tiiu liveryman, instead ot being ouend
ed by the implied Blur, was struck with
tho idea, and forewith removing the
sucker from among his companions ho
placed him in a reccptucle by lumselt,
and began to give him lessons in the
art. Selecting tho famous air of "Hold
tho Fort" as within the averago suck
er's capacity, ho soon found that tho
suoker could render it with great accu
racy, and followed this up with "Pull
tor the ohoie, and patiently drilling
the subject by alternate rebukes and
gitts ot angle-worm', ho shortly doub
led tho resources of his repertory. Tho
hsh was then returned to tho general
tank, where his accomplishment is now
tin admiration ot all ; iu tact, the
touching manner in which the sucker
periorms the airs in question has so
touched the heart of an uugeneralo
hostler upon the premise that ho has
given up swearing, and has been
heard 'to express thu wish that he wcie
a better man. Jioston Journal.
Olay Builders in Arabia,
Tho aspect of Arabia is that of a tie
cayed country. While the ancient
Arabians bored deep wells in the rock,
walled them witli stone, and built somu
houses, their Moslems successors were
clay builders, and now the Bedouins
only dig shallow pits with their hands
and a stick. Among iho oldest A in
bmn residents aro huge oreet stones
such as would bo called uruidicul in
Britain, ami buildings of huge irrogti
Inr blocks, such as aiu commonly call
ed Cyclopean or Peliisgian. Monuments
of uncertain age, built of unhewn stone,
aro frequent in tho valleys and on tho

Things Worth Remembering.
Fruit stains may bu removed by
freezing.
Save your cold tea ; it is excellent
for cleaning grninoil wood.
Mildew may be removed by dipping
tho stained parts into buttermilk nnd
putting them in the sun.
Table mats made of seine twino aro
exceedingly durable. They will wash
well, and two sets of them will last al
most a life time.
Common wheat Hour mado into
paste with cold water, applied dry, will
take out greaso Bpots without iejuiing
the tnost'delilcatu fabric.
A strong solution of carbolic acid
and water, poured into holes, kills all
tho ants it touches, and tho survivois
immediately take themselves off.
If you out tho back legs ot your
chair two inches shorter than the front
oucs, the fatigtio of sitting will be
greatly relieved, aud tho spine placed
in better position.
Leather chair seals may be revived
by rubbing them with well boalcn
white of eggs. Leather binding of
books may also bo cleaned by thin
method. Whito Roman bindings
should bo washed with a soft flannel
saturated in soapsuds.
By adding two parts of cream of
tarter to one part of oxalic acid ground
fine nnd kept dry, in a bottle, you will
find by applying a little of the powder
to rust stains, whilo the article h wet,
that tho result is much quicker and bet
ter. Wash out iu clear warm water to
prevent injury to tho goods.
That cold rain water and soap will
take out machinu grease, where oilier
means would not be advisable on ac
count of colors running, etc.
That turpentine in small quantitiis
may be used in boiling whit" goods to
a great advantage, as it improves llio
color, and tho boiling drives off all
odor. Resin in soap is quite another
thing ; it injures and discolors some
goods, and shrinks woolens. Soap
men argue that on account of the tur
pentine in tho resin it assists in the
washing. It is used fur it. til lor aud to
make the soap haid and cheap. It is a
fraud on tho consumer.
That kerosene will soften leather
belts or boots that havo become hard
from uso around the wash room. Good
for tho harness when hard from rain or
dampness. Wash with warm water,
then grease with good animal oil or
dressing like the following.
That tho government harness is
as follows : One gallon of Neatsfoot
oil, two pounds of Bayberry tallow,
two pounds of beef tallow. Put tho
above in a pan over a moderate fire.
When thoroughly dissolved add two
quarts of castor oil, then while on the
tiro stir in one ounce of lampbluck.
Mix well and strain through a fino
cloth to removo sediment, let cool, and
you have as fine a dressing tor harness
or leather of any kind ns can be had.
That baking soda gives instant ro-
lief to a burn or scald. Applied either
dry or wet to tho burned part immedi
ately the senso ot relict is magical. It
seems to withdraw tho heat and willi
it tho pain. Keep it in the ironing
room.
That when acid lias been dropped on
any article ot eioiuing, liquid ammonia
11 kill tho acid, and then, by apply-
ing chloroform, you
will restore tho
color in most cases,
