Now, as the great Creator in Lis divine econofn(%r has evidently provided this speciesof insects for the special use, pleasure and comfort of his chil: dren—the human family—the study o»fl'the ﬂlistory, .I)]l}’sidlog3’j'mxd 'pixe; nomena of the honey affords most exquisite delight and plenSugé to, the devoted mind, by referring constantly to the great ﬁrst.cause;; t})ll‘§ c’urfying the mind from nature up to nature’s God. Tltis but our duty, privilege and pleasure to devote at lens’tiﬁ portion of out time to this interesting, useful and ifnpm‘tanf study, inasmuch- as it serves to confirm our belief, in tielexistence of an all-wise Creator and Fathex:. . .

Now, we are enabled to trace the fiistory of the honey bée hick some five thousand years thus t 6 Samsoi’s fantiquity, as he was the ﬁHt of w'ho'm_, we have any account in sacted history to make the dis¢overy,and we have it as follows: “He turned aside, to see the carcass of the lion he had slain with his own hands, and -behbld a swarm of Bees and honey in the carcass of the lion, and of which he made a'Tiddle, ‘as thus expresged imrhyme:

. ‘‘Out.of the eater.cdme forth meat, ' *“Andout of the#trong that.which was sweet.” And so on déwn, from thbse ancient times-to the present, men of noble “minds and culture—many of them ‘hig'h'ly cultivated—in different nations and of all-dges, have devoted miuch of % their time to the study of the philosophy, ete., ofithe hohey bee. Now.there seems to be at least:four species of ' the honey bee. The black or. G terman " bee, the Italian or Liguarian bee, the Eg':vptian.b;ée, and the stingless bee. ’ Aristotle,, who flourished over two - thousand years ago, speaksof three different species of the Loney bee, as well known in his time. The best va- " riety he describes as being variegated, = %md‘ of a beautiful yellow! color, evi“dently the Italian bee. | Now, the © Inasses’ of the people who are not " Yersed in apiaculture are of the opjn’j;)n that the black.or comnion bee is a - hative of this countfy. DBut thisis : hot the fact, for- there are no native - bees in this country. The plack bee ~ conies from Germany, the Italian from " Italy. . The former was imported by the Dutch about the middle of the - seventeenth century, and nfteri\'arcls _fyqas brought over by the'_ English in the year 1865. Italian ‘bees were imported to this couniry in 1859, by Mr. ‘Wagoner, of York, Penn. Now as'the Italian bees are found to do so much : bEtter in this country, being larger and étronger,s and their proboseis longer, . they aré therefote enabled to work on inany ﬂowers“ whicly the, black bees ¢ never visit—the red clover, particu“larly the black bees canmot reach—so, » therefore, we give oi_u‘ k\'lnole interest to the raising and care of Italian bees. Now, we hate taken a firm stand in Jfa.v'or of ‘providing" repositories for iwintering‘bees, and would j;h"egefore say to all those keéping hees who are : bro\'ided with good, dry ce'lla'rg, not * o hesitate to deposit tlieir bees there, rovided the cellar can békept entireIy dark and thé bees be keptiquiet and ndisturbed, and ‘the cellar properly : wventilated, about which we may have , Mofe to say subsequently, But where _ & cellar is not convenient, a bee house * br cave should ‘be providéd. In Ger- - Many they very commonly provide a [baye or vault which"always seems to _prove eflicient in carrying their bees through the winter. Dzierzon, a high- - ly educated German, a ~devoted and - eminently successful apiarian, author Jand writer bn apiaculture, says that . fix;""his eountry it is comnion, tq. winter 5!3‘11 the stocks of a village in a common . -‘Tva‘ulte,‘ cave or celar. The Rey. Mr. ' [Beholtz, of Lower Silesia, whoris wide|lly known in Germany for ‘his skill in /[bee keeping, higlly recommends the / ;A‘cla'mp_, which may be in tle form of la long trer-li; or it may be arranged - /in = pyramidal or conical form, simi- . |lar- to that adopted by many farmers - for burying potatoes, apjﬂes, ete., only, | of course, vn a larger scale; and this | latter plan he thinks, is preferable to. | all others. ‘Mr. C)ﬁimfjf,"WhO']jﬂ_S\,'it‘ieé I said, thé;aréé'st apiary in the United States, hils for many years. wintered whis bees fyvitlf great success in a room | specially adapted to the purpose.

. SPARE THE Brrps.—Weshouldrathersay, cultivate the birds; for the very. next breeze from the west may bring us the crash of the glrasshdppers, or locusts. The birds are our best friends. They earn all the grain.they consume in the destruction. 6f insects, which would, but for them, have destroyed vastly more. ZLet us not only spare the birds, but pet -and cultivate them as our good friends. - The acres we cultivate are annually inereasing, and the insect accordingly, while the birds are getting scarcer. .. -7 ~ e =

. Tne manure from animals fed on cgoked or-steamed food is not so valuable as from animals fed- on whole or ground .grain in’'the raw state. This goes” to show that the -animals assimilate more of ‘the food when cooked than when raw, - and it rarely pays to manure with that whieh should . be converted into beef' and milk. I consider it" pays to put the tood in sucke a condition® before feeding it that the animals can malke the most flesh and- milk ‘from a' given quantity of food.'. It does not pay to make manure out of grain, no matter how rich qr stimulating it may be to the different crops.. - .

: Birds and Bird Cage’§.' : Mi.« Seth Green, alluding to the methods of attracting birds to bird houses, offers the following advice: “Do not put more than one bird house about your premises the first séason. Add one every year:thereafter. -If you put up a pumber, a-pair.of birds will come, inspect each in succession, and {ly away not to ‘return; just as wlen you go into a store.where, there are a large number of the kind of articles'you want, and after looking at them you will go somewhere else. If there was: but one you would buy-it, but from the: great number you cannot make a choice.” " I Remedy tor Cabbage Worms. ~ Hellebore, lime, 'salt,. and similar substances, have been used -with varied success for -the destruction- of cabbage worms. It is now stated that bran and buckwlieat flour answer the purpose better than any other remeedies that have been tried. The bran is simply dusted over the infested cabbages assoon as the worms make their appearance. - If the worms are very plenty, about a handful of bran is required to each cabbage head, and in some cases-it may be necéssary to go over the plants a second- time. - A hundred weight of bran is sufficient for an acre.” It must be applied when the worms -are young: When they are full grown or very strong it .does not appear to affect them. ; The buckwheat tlour is sifted upon them: by means of a seive, in the evening or in thé morning, when the dew is on the plants: If one application ‘does not destroy the worms, a second one should be made. It is probable that wheat flour, fine Indian meal, or'any other pulverulent farinaceous supstance would have the same effect.—American Garden. . .

- Down’t Eat When Not Hungry. - - * Dr. Hall declats unhesitatingly that it is wrong to eat without an appetite, for it showy there is no gastric Jjuice in the stomach, and that nature does not need food; and not needing it, there being no E’lu‘id to receive and act upon it, it remains “there only to putrefy—the very thought of which should bé” suflicient to deter any man. from eating without an appetite for the remainder of his days. If a tonic is taken to whet tlie appetite, it is a mistaken course, for its only résult is to cause one to eat more, when already an ‘amount -has been taken beyond what the gastric juice is able to:prepare.. The object to-be attained is a larger supply. of 'gas(gric juice,, not a larger supply of food; and whatever 'fails to accomplish that essential.object fails to have any efficiency toward the cure of dyspeptic diseases. - The formation of gastric juices is directly proportioned -to the wear and tear of the system, which it is- to be ‘the means of supplying, and this wear and tear can'only take place as the result of exercise. . The efficient remedy for dyspepsia is work—out-door—benefi-cial and successful in’direct: proportion as it is agreeable, interesting and profitable.’ - i e ' .. Preparation of Whitewash. . _ - Whitewash is-one of the most valuable articles in the world, when properly abplied. Itnot only preventsthe de--cay of wood, but conduces greatly to the healthiness of all buildings, whetherjof wood or stone. Out-buildings and fences, when not painted, should be supplied once or twice a year with a good coat of whitewash, prepared in the following way: Takea clean, ‘water-tight barrel, or other suitable cask, and put into it a half-bushel of lime. . Slake it by pouring water over it,- boiling hot, and in-sufficient quantity to cover it five inches deep, then stir 1t briskly till thoroughly slaked. When -the slaking has been. effected, dissolve it in water, and add 2 pounds sulphate of zinc, and 1 pound of common salt. These will cause-the wash to harden.and prevent cracking, which gives an unseemly appearance to the. ‘work. - If desirable, a beautiful cream color may -be communicated to the ‘above wash by adding 3 pounds yellow ochre, or a-gooed pearl lead color by the addition of lamp, vine or ivory black. For fawn color, add 4 pounds umber, Turkish or American, the lat: ter is the chedpest, .1 pound Indian red, and 1-pound common lamp-black. For common stone color, add 4 pounds raw. umber and 2 pounds. lamp-black, This ‘wash may be applied with a common whitewash brush and will be found much superior, both in appearance and durability, to common whitewash. > St G R e

Tue Baltimore & Ohio railroad is about to make a new town on the line of its road. Between Avilla and Au‘burn in DeKalb county, a place named Garrett City has been laid out, and: the B. &O. R. R. has let the contract for building a set of shops that will rival those at this place. ILast Monday 5,000,000 bricks were contracted for 'by the road, and the contraet is now being filled. The stock-holders of the road have purchased 625 acres of land, formed. a building association, and propose making a city of no small importance. The town of Avilla, which might have secured these shops by a liberal manner of dealing, has lost: them by the grasping disposition of some-of her property owners. Avilla. will now be lost sight af, while Garrett City will grow to be a place Qf note.—Elkhart Review, 3d. ! We hzu_'d_ly think the above item exactly correct as regards the disinelination of the Avilla people to offer proper inducements. : The facts are that the B. &O. authorities’ paid no attention to the Avilla people, but quietly selected the Garrétt swamps for the location of their shops. Our Avilla Reporter could throw some light on this subject that would completely refute .the Review’s assertion.

'The St. Liouis Republican says that an agent of Eastern-capitalists is in that city looking for ground on which to erect a large number of tenement houses, on a sort of-co-operative plan. It is proposed to build a continuous row of three-story houses on the four sides of a square, with an alley midway on each side. The houses are to have al¥ the modern improvements, exeept kitchen and laundry. In the center of the hollow square enclosed by the houses will be a’commodious building with all the conveniences for .cooking and washing on a large scale. The former department is to be under the supervision of an.experienced purveyor and [cook, and the latter.in charge ot a good Jaundryman. In this building all the cooking and washing will be done for the families occupying the tenement houses. In this way it is believed [that each family may be relieved of much of the care and burden of housekeeping, and a large saving effected in the two important items of table expenses and washing. It is said the experiment has been entirely successful in Boston. DD 4 R—— Assisting Nature. . It is of*no use attempting to force nature. She won’t stand it, and rebels. She must be coaxed, as it were, not driven. -For instance, in attempting to overcome constipation or indigestion, violent, or what é)hysicians call, by ‘way of|euphony, “heroic” treatment, is sure to defeat the purpose in view, which is, or should be, to permanently remedy the‘evil. = The use of drastic d'athfartics is ‘especially to be deprecated, for although they temporarily overcome costiveness, yet the intestines are so weakened and inflamed by them as to be rendered unfit to perform the ejective funection properly. How much better to assist nature in such a cage with such a mild and salutary aperient as Hostetter’s Stomach Bitters, whick strengthen at the same time that they relieve the bowels. Not only is this result achieyed by their use, but the activity of the torpid liver is restored, the stomach: invigorated, and the entire system greatly benefited. | T-w3'

There has been anincreasing demand for a positive Jorcesfeed which can be regulated for any desired quantity, without any change of gears and without carrying around a lot of extra gears. This very desirable feature is accomplished with our new foree-feed, and in a very simple and effective manner. The following cuts represent our new Feed: : b je

T NS : Gt 2 d : T=S ‘Mz}% “%T*%HWMH‘ % """'u”"_»‘ [ e "%7%% e sTS | ‘ = ,- i ‘n"”'"“-'.:kl BT ﬂﬂ%,‘% eTE s : , ;,;_3;" i t;%!:;; | g .-y S o il L View of Feeder set for small quantity. i . View of Feeder set for large quantity. S ~ The Feeder consists of a feed-cup, in which there is placed an adjustable revolving disk with teeth on the side near the edge. These tevolving disks are all fastened on the feeder-shaft, and moved laterly to vary the space be-. tweén the disk and the side of the feed-cup, which varies the flow of seed as may be required. From the fact that tliey are all fastened on the same shaft, when one is moved they are all moved, consequently the change is uniform in all the feeders. You need not change a peck at once, but can vary as littleias you please; even a pint, or less if you desire. = The quantity sown is regulated by a very simple device at the end of the hopper. It is merely a sleeve with a:spiral groove, fastened on the end of the shaft, to which is attached the indicafor arm or lever. There is a scale on the end of the hopper with figures indjcating the different quantities of grain to be sown per acre, and simply moving the indicator to any desired point in the scale, and tightening the thumb nut is all you have to do to make the change forany desired quantity. The feeder is so plain and simple that we think no. farmer'can. fail to appreciate its advantages. It is just what farmers have been wanting, and just what manufacturers have been trying to make; something that can be adjusted instantly without change of gears. Every.one who sees it gives expressions like the following: “That’s it;” “You have got it now;” “Just what we want;” “We are tired of carrying so many gears, and then have to make change of a peck at once;” “This just suits me and T must have it;”? “It:is so easily regulated, I can vary just as little as I please;’ *“Anybody can set this without making a mistake;” “I never saw anything feed as even as this, just as regular as a stream of water;” “See! it will sow anything—wheat, rye, barley, oats, flax, peas, beans, corn, timothy and clover seed, and then it does it so nicely, it certainly does beat them all;” “There-is some satisfaction in using such'a Drill.”. Such are the .expressions which farmers’ make when they see the feed, and they are not mistaken; it is jall they say about it.; St el i : The manufacturers have had eighteen years’ experiénce in the manufacture of Drills, and are familiar with all the Drills in this country and in Europe, and we can confidently assert that it has no equal anywhere. We ask you-to examine it, and we feel confident that you will be suited. There aré many. other valuable improvements on the Buckeye not found on any other Drill. For Sale by o = : L 9y ket , ~ J. M.
