TREN FARM NOTES. ExtrRACTED oR CoM Honey. — The greatest vield of honey ean be ob- tained by extracting, as it can be ex tracted from the combs without await- ing their sealing up. It seems to take the bees about as long to seal over the comba as to fill them with honey, We can, therefore, get double the number of pounds of extracted honey than we can of comb, Besides keeping the combs emptied of their contents, there is the additional advantage of keeping the bees working right along filling the l Bees thus treated are not so to swarm, as they have at abundance of room for storing Ii Is trus we may give them large surplus room, but when this is filled with comb honey, it is not com- pleted. Several days are 1 ig to ripen the honey and seal the cells, With limited storage room they make prepa rations to swarm, and then plentiful storage room will not prevent it, of two methods of producing honey, and extracted, the Iaties does not half the labor. It has been sakl that extracted hon ey does not bring as high a price, But in the majority of cases the apiarist 18 making more money from extracted because he is producing three or more pounds to one. True, there are a few specialists who make the raising of comb honey a study, and those probably receive the greatest profits, Dut the masses find much difficulty in producing comb honey, when they can easily produce large crops of extracted. To succeed properly in raising profitable crops of comb honey requires the greatest skill and study of anything connected with the apiary. It is beginning at the wrong end to raise comb honey first, in- stead more simple and easy method of using the e Xt: welor E . 4 ilquuds are parent that and carry Quesiitie Lise heap manure will low it to pass down water able : th 84 Con linbe tines honey. 18, ail 3 js A the comb require more than & i figs Lf Lit M ANURE, to the heap ‘it is ap- excess will flow away much the fertilizing manure.

Ie you have a fi uit teee that és not bearing as it should, stir the soil well and apply a dressing of retien manure, If, in a few days after, a dressing of wood ashes ean be put on, it will make it all the betfer. Prune well, especially when cutt ng out all the old, diseased wood, L¥ corn fodder is cut and steamed, or moistened with boiling water, it will be found an excellent and agreeable change of diet for the cows. Cows that are given a variety of food oeceasionally will always keep ia better condition than those that are fed on a sameness of diet continually. A Micmioax man who has 200 Lickory-nut trees and about 300 walnut and butternut trees says that his in- come from them, year by year, is larger than that of any farwer cultivating 300 acres of land, Ile sells his erop on the trees for cash in hand, and the only exe pense out is for taxes, I¥ manure is to be applied around young trees let it be done late in the fall or when the winter is well in, A dis advantage of covering the ground around trees with manure, however, 1s that it harbors insects, affording them shelter.
