Beginning- With Bees.
TUere iswonderlul difference betweeu
the horM-y yields of different localities;
one mnn may report: "I never had a
greater crop;" while another will say:
'My bees have done scarcely any
thing." There are localities! wherecomb
honey cannot le profitably produced,
and others where it will not pay to
rim for xtrated honey; in most cases
A judicious combination gives best re
sult. Comb-honey is largely sold by
Us r.ppea ranee; therefore choose a lo
cation where honey plants are such as
to produce the finest and best honey.
If possible, locate near larje alfalfa
fi4da; or whta-e the mountain sides are
covered with the different species
of
aa.ee, or in places where California
lilac abounds. An apiary should be
located in a valley, so as to give the
beesaprenter range of night, ihe
awarraiut! tendency is more or
less governed by position of the
apiary. If well shaded, and
aJou some river bottom swarming
, vin 1m controlled very easily. -If in a
' mountain or foothill country, you
will have abundance of swarms, and
tiie main difficulty in locations like
this is to keep them from swarnimg
too much. To get stocked up with
bees better go to some successful be
keeper up with the times, and pur
chase from him three or four colonies
in movable frame ' hives. It is best
not to start with too many, but learn
as yoii go.)
. The debated question. "Which
bees to start with?" is of little mo
ment to a beginner; After you find out
your location, theHi try the different
races until you find one that suits
you.- Some races of bees do well in
one location soma in another. After
getting your beea home and on their
permanent stands, read some good
book on beekeeping and suscribe for
one or more good papers. I tbrnk a
bee journal of more impor-tance-than
a bee book, because the
journal is constantly presenting the
new and valuable discoveries made
by ttie most progressive apiarists ot
theday. Bee culture could only be
learned by stifdy and practice. . Learn
: the principles from fhe books and pa
pers, then practically apply them;
visit some successful apiarist. One
visit will sometimes be worth a good
many dollars to a beginner. After
yqu are started well study your mar
ket; try and build up a good home
market. Sell nothing but a good ar
ticle, thoroughly well ripened, and in
a neat, attractive shape. Try find
have all your honey first class. Iloney
should be lelt in the h'i.ves until thor
oughly evaporated and all sealed up.
Do nob extract-before it is all capped.
Try and use a one-sized frame
throughout Uio apiary; two or more
sized frames are a great bother. Pa

Scab of Potatoes and Roots.-.
Extended experience with the scab
(eads the Nortgi Dakota Experiment
Station to the fallowing interesting
conclusions: Scabby "seed" tubers
under ordinary cireu instances produce
a deceased crop. 2. Seed potatoes
free from scab upon soil free from the
disease will produce healthy potatoes.
3. The disease germs can remain in
the ground from one crop to another.
But not the least interesting is the
demonstrated fact that by soaking
the seed in certain chemicals before
planting an undiseased crop can be
grown from the scabbiest potatoes,
provided the soil be free from the scab
germs. The point is to kill the ad
hering germs and not retard the
growth of the tuber, and for this the
treatment recommended is with
corrosive ' sublimate Mercuric bi
chloride. In the first place the seed
to be treated should be thoroughly
washed in a vat of running water or
iu a tub by frequently ' changing the
water. Only the fairest of potatoes
should be retained.
For the treatment obtain a barrel
and place in it 13 gals.. of water. Dis
solve 2 ozs. of the sublimate in 2 gals,
of warm water, add this to the barrel
and stir for a tune. Into this solu
tion place the washed potatoes for an
hour and a half. The liquid can be
used-for further potatoes. After the
treatment the tubers can be cut and
planted in the usual manner. The
siibstanceemployed is a strong poison
and great eare needs to be taken in
its use. A similar scab is found on
beete f various sorts and as it is
urObablT the same, it is unwise to
raise potatoes on the same land suc
cessively u thej are senboy ana it fol
lows that beets should not follow
- siudiby potatoes. It is probable' that
othej root crops are infested with the
fungous disease, and likewise it is to
be expected that other preventatives
will be foand effective. Dr. Byron D.
Haleted.
Contrast of Collars.
A cellar built with too little expense
U generally costly adjunct as long
a it lasts. The walls are often not
thick enough or properly mortared to
make them durable and frost-proof.
A mere breaking of joints without us
ing mortar in the middle of the wall
will not hold it firmly together. A
poorly built cellar, while it lasts, in
curs a necessity for banking every au
tumn, when a quantity of manure or
straw is placed between the house aud
an unsightly fence surrounding it.
The following spuing this must be
drawn away and a. general scraping
given to the ground it occupied. Pro
viding a harbor for rats and mice and
the killing of all the grass near the
house are among the exterior effects.
The contents of the allr are liable to
freeze in very cold weather unless a
lire be kept burning, which incurs ex
pense,' bother and danger.
The modern cellar waT! is built
about 2 ' ft. thick and mortared
throughout above a lme ,4ft. from the
bottom. The top is extended to the
floor above, against which it is snugly
pointed. No banking outside and no
stove or frost inside. .Windows
double-pane, well puttied and fitted
remove the necessity of a candle on
entering. It is Important' to give Uie
ground surrounding the house a good
grade atid provideeave'roughx for the
hotiea. also the earth in contact with
the wall may become saturated with
water, admitting frost mora readily
than a merely ntoit soil and inore
ing the liability to heave the wall in
ward. A cement lloor that may be
readily cleaned with nion or fciooru:
and that excludes vermin is a we!-;
come improvement. Uie destruction
in a single year oi iruits, potatoes anu
vegetables by rats and meadow-moles
would go far toward meeting the ex
pense of a floor to exclude them.
Clark M. Drake.
To Te!! Geod Seeds From Bad,
The Germantown Talegraph gives a
test for the vitality of seeds which we
do not remember having seen in
print before. Corn is taken as the
sample, but the fact are true of ail
grains. All seeds may be divided in
to three parts, the germ, the body and
the 6kin. The germ is the part which
contains the life principle the part
which sprouts, and is therefore the
Hie of the seed and of the future plant.
Ou the vigor and "perfection of the
germ or chit depends the value of the
seed. The body is the reserve fund of
the germ, which supports the embryo
sprouts, both top and bottom, or
stem and root, until the root is ad
vanced enough to feed upon the soil.
During this process the body is gen
erally absorbed entirely to support
the plant. The skin of a seed is mere
ly for protection; it protects the inter
ior from undue moister and minor
enemies. ' The germ is of amber color,
about the consistency of old cheese,
and cuts under a knife exactly like
cheese.- The body is harder, ol vari
ous colors, and much less susceptible
to attacks of water or. insects'. These
are the characteristics of well-ripened
seed, and are invariable. If the seed
is caught by frost before becoming
ripe, the chit crumbles to a fine pow
der and becomes dead. So the test of
good seed, sure to grow, is the cheesy
character of tke germ; a very simple
tiling, easily tested with a sharp knife,
and infallible.
Hans or Pullets for Laying?
Whether to retain the old hens or
to hatch early pullets is ona of the un
settled questions in keeping poultry,
says Poultry Yard. The fact is both
the old hens and pullets may be pre
ferred, according to circumstances.
That the pullets seem to excel the
hens at times is true, but the matured
hen is better for breeding purposes
than the pullet. The hen, after she
begiHs to lay," will often grow fat and
remain so on a very small quantity of
food. It is difficult to reduce a fat
hen except by actual starvation, es
pecially with some breeds, and this is
the difficulty, though unknown to
some, that induces them, to discard
her for the pullet, as the pullot from
doing double duty of laying and grow
ing, does not fatten so readily. The
chicks from eggs produced by liens are
nearly always stronger and more vig
orous than those produced by pullets,
and the hen lays a larger egg than the
pullet. The claim that the tien will
not lay as many eggs the second arid
third years as the first is not true.
The hen simply fattens more readily
as blie enters her second year and be
comes aged. If fed judiciously, &he
should cost less than the pullets and
lay more eggs, as well as retain her
vigor till she is five or six years old.

Worms at the Root of a Rosa.
The small white worms that infest
potted plants and eat the roots are
the young of a 'smatl black fly that
breeds iD manure or rich soil. The
flies may be been about the roots on
the surface of the soil, and are most
easily ' destroyed by pouring strong
tobacco water on the earth. There
is no need to repot the plants if this
remedy is applied. It may be needed
more than once, and any flies seen
should be caught and killed. The
flies, or rather the grubs, are general
ly brought in the manure. Another
remedy is to dip the pot completely
under water at a heat of 100 deg. or
as hot as the tinier can 'be : teept iu . it.
for a second. Thia will drive out or
kill all Einds of worms, and especial
ly earth worms, which are often in
jurious to plants growing in pots. It
is advisable when choosing the soil
for such plants to sift it and examine
it carefully for these pests, and see
that it is tree fi ora them. The first
indication of the presence of these
pest is the yellowness of the leaves
aiid their dropping from the stems.
Short Rows,
It is estimated from very reliable
sources that this season Virginia had
100,000 acres of land devoted to
tobacco culture.-
Eggs from a filthy and vile-smelling
hen house can not be really fit to eat.
The quality of eggs is afftcted both by.
the food and surroundings of the hens.
A correspondent says tha t in sav
ing seed corn there are five joints to
look at: length of ear, lepth of
graiu, 'sniHllnes of cob, wtill fitted
ends, and a good place to kei;p it.
The Country .Gentleman says an
Albany county fanner placed on each
bale of hay shipped, tlm information
that it was grown on gravelly loam
and was fret? from dust and chaff
with name and address, and for this
got f 1.50 above tho market price.
There are some ways, at least, in
which more protection would help the
farmer. If he would protect hiscattle
from cold, storms and winds, his
poultry from vermin and his tools
and machines from sun and rai-n, it
would increase his income aud reduce
bis expenses.
When cuttings are being rooted by
amateurs in small tin or earthen ves
sels, placed m sunny windows, the
process can be forwarded by painting
the receptacle black. The color ab
sorbs the heat and imparts it to the
sand or earth, thus lacilitating the
starting of the roots. .
Do not allow the sneep to lie out
long in rain or snow. ' When t tie lleece
gets filled with either, it takes a long
time to dry out and a great deal of
animal heat to dry it out. and this
heat requires extra feed to keep up. A
heavy lleece thoroughly saturated
with water is a heavy load for (he ani
mal to carry about.
THE NICARAGUA CANAL.
Tha l-reakleat ut th. Coltfet-aia AltUaai
a Ik Bjtjvet.
To tha Farmers' Alliance of the
state of California. Greeting: It
seems to ma that tha time has arrived
when I should araln speak to the
members of this great Brotherhood -,
throughout the 1'acitic coast and warn
them against the schemes of certain j
parties to attempt to force congress to
guaraoteo the bonds of the Nicaragua
canal schema Some time ago there
was organized la San Francisco what
U kuuWu So tu TftuiC Association."
It purported to have been organized
for the purpose of obtaining some
relief from the robbery practiced up
on the producers of this coast by the
graspia- railroad monopolies entering
this state from the Kast, and so far as
it worked . on this line, it bad our
hearty support But thU association
had no more than fairly organized,
when it was switched off upon
the Nicaragua canal scheme and they
appointed a committee to inquire into
the matter, and said committee re
ported favorable to the bonds bning
Issued by the government, and their
report was adopted by the association,
thus changing the object and Intent of
the association from one to give u-t re
lief from the pirate railroad corpora
tions, to an institution to boom tho
Nicaragua canal and they now threat
en to inflict upon us a petition for that
purpose. Don't sign any such peti
tion! We have placed ourselves on
high ground upon this question, and
we mean to stand there until we get re
lief. .. In tho letter to tho chamber of
commerce, 1 used this ' language:
"About the end of President - Ar
thur's term,he entered into a treaty
with Nicaragua to guarantee the
protection of the canal, but bo
fore the treaty win ratified,
Cleveland was inaucurutcd aud
he promptly withdrew it Warner
Miller .and others came before con
gress for a charter, pledging1 thenv
selves that the government would not
be asked for any assistance to build it
The charter was granted upon these,
terms, which I believe they bad no
more authority to giant, without an
agreement to defend the territorial in
tegrity of the states whero such in
terests lie, than they' had to grant a
charter to build a railroad from Faris
to Berlin. They are now willing to
take the government into partnership
upon the same old terms what it
should furnish tho moans aud the cor
poration should pockot the profits.
Congress, also- chartered a, "construc
tion company" to build a canal. Thw,
I suppose, is a kind of a "Credit
Mobilior" or "Contract and Finance
company. which you have probably1
heard about before, chartered for the
purpose of dividing the profits among
throe or four of tho principal stock
holders. But Miller and others say
there is no risk to run by the govern
ment . If this bo so, let them
put up their private means, of
which they have sullicient to build the
canal without any aid from the gov
ernment. But -suppose $100,000,000
would not comploto the work, tho
they would no doubt ask tho govern
ment to take a second lien, as in the
Pacific railroads and the monoy givon
them by tho government would bo
used to corrupt the members of con
gress as in the former case, and the
courts would step in and declare the
corporation did not owe the govern
ment anything until the bonds wore
duo, and in tho end I fear the United
States would have to pay the bonds
and interest, as in tho Pacific rail
roads." In my messages to the state
Alliance I used this language, . ' -I
placed the .Alliance on the highest
grounds in the Nicaragua canal letter
to the ckambcr of commerce, viz:
That the people of this nation had
voted thoir last subidy to great cor
porations for the purpose of controlling
commerce, or hatching out a new
brood of millionaires. That if the gov
ernmentdesires to invest $100,000,000
in tho enterprise it must own the
canal and run it in tho interests of
the people." In my letter to the
Bankers' Magazine Sept 15th, lfjtfl.
I used this language. 'The people
of this great country have voted their
last subsidy "' to build up monopolies
who oppress taein with the very gifts
so generously bestowed. We, believe
hereafter when the people furnish the
means for the construction of these
great public highway thoy should
own and control them, and run them
in the interests of the people. Wc
have already built all tho great pubh
highways to the Pacific Coast, and
paid for thorn by taxation, and they
are now used to oppress tho very
people who made the donation, and
nro pressing us to the wall with their
thieving rates of fares and freighU
and while we subsidize the steamships
with thousands of dollars every year,
they enter into combinations to rob
the producers. The Pacific Mail, after
receiving subsilios from the govern
ment, receives bribes from Huntington
& Co. of $700,000 a year to keap up
freights and fares by sea. This
amounfc . ia addition to the -subsidies,
we pay every year in the enhanced
price of freights. This canal would
be a great benolit to the Pacific if two
things were done, and only a curse
without them. The ownership of the
caual by tho people and tho abol.tiou
of tho tariff restrictions on the p:rls
of the Pacific states. If these two
things are not dono it will make Vic
toria the large seaport of tin Pacific
coast and enrich tho British empire tit
our'expense, and tho great inerchaifs
and manufacturers of San Francisco
can have the privilege of laying Iwelc
and gottinsr rich otf each other b
trading jack-knives. No! you may
depend upon it, that tho Farmer.'
Alliance will never assist, in buil Jin;.'
up any more private corporations to
oppress them. If it can be built upon
the conditions indicated, the Fai-m.-r'
Alliance will give it their hearty u;
port" From these quotations from public
letters and documents it is tils"-" '
be seen where we stand. We don't
intend to go into partnership with
any more privote corporations to build
up the groat public highways of com
merce. Especially when wo ' furnish
all tho money, and the private corpor
ations get all the turkey.
Now I say to this canal committee,
don't make the mistake of ignoring
tho modest wishes of the people.
Tbey do not ask the confiscation of
the ill-gotten gains of any corporation,
but we do demand a fair deal in the
I future, and we intend to have it; and
! wo are on the skirmish Hue now, and
will not porrait the enemy to intrench
themselves behind additional bulwarks

Pis. t'eb. 5. Price a rising rapidly
at a mult ot tb new tariff but. Pork
and mutton have advanced 3 cants par
pound. Italian and Patch rbee have
risen 100 per cent- and foreign aoap S00
per cent. The extra cort to workmen for
necessities of life is estimated at t franc
daily J Yes dispatch.
There, now you have It from the
Associated Press itself. Thnt dispatch
must have slipped through by acci
dent for the Associated Press care
fully suppresses all such items. But
the facts are there all the same. Is
it possible that there is a working man
in Kansas or the United States that is
too blind to see that a tariff takes tho
money out of bis own pockot or stom
ach? The average laboring man in
Topeka pays about $100, a year for
tariff. -the mechanic twice that and
the fellow whose family expenses are
$1. 200 a year puts up about $.!00. The
average amount per family ot live in
the United States, is :'00. During
the campaign of 188 the writer
of this asked for ' a quarter's worth
ot sugar, in the store of Green
& Kale o the North fcldo by snying:
Please givo mo 13 cents worth of
sugar and 12 cents worth of . tariff. "
The form of the request brought on a
discussion. To show tho absurdity ot
our position Mr. Green demanded:
Do you mean to say that but for the
tariff -1 could soil you '20 pounds of
sugur for -a dollar instead of 12 P"
We answered, "Yes, sir. that is just
what I say." . He turned from us in
disgust too full of contempt to utter
another word, ' Last Saturday as Sam
Uindmnn was tying us up a quarter's
worth of sugar he , remarked:
There is just one pound more of ' su
gar for twenty -five - cents than you
could have got a year ago for fifty.
To which we .replied: .'-Yes, but
there are still fools in Topeka who
will vote for a tariff. . We bustled
out lively, for Sam is a good Republi
can and will shut bis eyes 'and "vote
er strait" evon If It takes the hair off
the fellow that cats the sugar. :
Tho man who advocate; a tariff is a
knave or a fool. The man who . votes
a ariff on himself is a fool any . way.
