a— FARM NOTES, loppERY AMONG Bees, — Of all things connected with the apiary, rob- bing is the most perplexing, and often very disastrous. The primary cause 18 carelessness on the part of the apiarist. A colony of bees in proper condition is proof against robbers, and colonies that fall victims to robbers will nearly al- ways be found to be defective in some particular, A colony that becomes queenless, without the necessary brood to rear another queen, seldom escapes tion, Again, a colony may bave a de- fective queen, and on the colony becom- ing discouraged will allow themselves to be plundered and destroyed. In such cases, they are the worst of any the apiarist is certainly responsible, as it is in his power to remedy such defects. A colony having a good, fertile queen may be so weak or few in number that they are unable to repel robbers. In such cases the apiarist can strengthen them by uniting with other colonies, or draw To NA HOUSEHOQLD, THE TABLE—ORDER AND unNA MENT. That the appearance of the table affects our enjoyment of the food, no one will deny. Were this not the ease, tablecloths might be dispensed with, and it would be a matter of indif- ference whether our plates were of tin or china. How far we should regard the appearance of the table will depend in part upon one’s tastes, and in part upon one’s means, Ornamentation to a certain extent is also pleasing, but this generally takes time-—just the thing which housekeep- ers in general can least afford. Such are better left for the wealthy, who can pay for the necessary service. Still there are many things pertaining to their execution, and which even the waiter, can observe, if her attention is called to them. At thus save them. Keep colonies strong at all times and furnished with good, fertile queens, Carelessly leaving honey about where bees can to it often causes trouule, as this will incite robbing, and the weak and de- i | Where robbing begins it is difficult to with. The colony being robbed should be allowed to remain where it is, Changing it from to another in the same vicinity does more injury than good; it should be removed a mile or more from the ne ighborhood. If the bees show any dispositi tect themselves, robbing may be che ked by simply But if the inmates make fever, a Jarge light cloth may be thrown over the en- tire hive.
