The Farm and Household, { Y - e % " Economy of the Honey Bee. = _' e g [Coniixgu‘ogl from last week. . For more than fifty years it las Licen _the great question with the learned apiarian to find some better mode of - increasing ‘their beées other--than by natural swarming. Although by thé - control of the combs bees may be propagated by natural swarming witha degree of rapidity and certainty hitherto unattainable, yet there are a jgreat many difficulties inherent to - this mode of incréase and. therefore .ot easily removed by any kind of - hive made after the old style, I will _give a few hints in referencé to_nat,ural swarming, so.that any bee keeper may beable to decide whick, in. his ‘opinion, is the better way to multiply: his stocks. . " B - 4The nmixerousy swarms lost every -yéar is a strong argument against natural swarming and in favor of :{rti_ﬂi “cial swarming. Natural swarmingis. wvery objectional on account of the ex-7 ~ tra time and labor whieh it requjres’ Inflleed, the apiary, or bee yard, should ~ be closely watched during the swarm‘ing season, say from -the ist of May till the 20th of August, ,}i-f; vm"y;.' many * swarnis, or colonies, are kept. Then, ‘a competent person should -li¢ em-, ~ ployed to take cave of the hees. = Even| -the Sabbath cahnot always be observed as a day of rest by the vigilunt bee keeper, sho;uld thie bees swaim on that. day. !’ o 5 g ~ Now, if the apiarian could be at _home all the Wwhile during the swarming seéason, he might, to some ¢xtent at least, be able to attend to his Dees.. But take the farpier, for instance. At ' the season of the year whei lces . swarm, and when his time shoulil be ‘ occupied in the fields, how often is he - ‘anpoyed by tlie cry, “The bees are swarming!” - Lhus, the keeping of only a few bees, instead of being a sburcﬂe of profit, (except he umler:;t:g_mls” " -artificial swarming)’ is an expfaxxsi‘\:e' luxary. LAY o Avery serious objection to natural swarming is ‘the discouraging fact that bees sometimes refuse to swarm’ ~“at all, and therefore’the apiarian is unable to multiply his bees with any Tdegree of certainty or‘rapidity, no - matter how fayorably he may be situ- _ ated. Some of the mostlareful apia- ~ rians have fewer stocks now than they. " had years ago, though they have done all they could to-increase them. A . few of our imore’ intelligent bee keep- ; se'f‘s believe that thére are not half as - many bees in the nerthern and middle ' States now as there were twenty or * thirty years ago, and many would . abandon . bee-keeping if they did not -regard it ag being a pleasant vocation rather than one of real profit Every .. practical bee kéeper must'be aware of the uncerfainty of natural swarming, and I would say gight here that it _cannot be relied on in respect to some stocks!! As some ‘swarm regularly, and somietimes repeatedly, while others equally 'sti"oilg, -and everf strenger so far as numbets are. concerned, fail \ to swarm at all, even in seasons when -forage is plenty. *Now, you will find, - upon examination, that such aolonies ]}ave taken no steps fo_r,??ﬁsj ng queens. . Again, it frequently h‘a'pi)'efns that after all the preparations for -swarming havé been completed the weather suddenly changes so-that the old queen is prevented from. leading off i swaim. Now;it may with propriety be. re.marked here that the old queen” always leads off‘the first swarm. ' . ‘And that all the young qiieens hatch _out . and are destroyed lLieforc the weather -cl;l:mg(fs- favorabl y forswarming. Un- . der such circumstances, Sﬁ'zlx‘lxmirlg‘fe)l' - that season is almost sare to be a-fail-ure. ,A'gai_,n,‘ there mi;y be a suspen_sion of the honey harvest; and if s, " bees seldom colonize, even’ though .;l the necessary preparaﬁons have been - made for swarming. ~ % nd * The numerous perplexities pertain- - ing to natural swariing have for ages - directed the attention of the cultivators to the,importance of devising sonie more reliable method of increas: ; ing their colonies. . Columella, who ﬂqqrished some two thbusan@ ‘yeirm ago, wrote twelve books on husbandry, .- and his treatise on bee-keeping shows - that'he was well acquainted with bee . keepers of his day, and writers on the subject.}. It appears from the ancient ~ - methods of artificial swarming, ‘that . they met with but little success. And 'so it proves-to be with %xnany novices + at the present tinfe, they being almost eéntirely .ignorant of the philosophy, - phenomena and principles of the:sciencé of apiaculture. Such hiad better ' abstain from artificial swarming until -they learn'the art perfectly,:as. they - will find it to the advantage of their | .-economy in the bee business. -+ - Sl o GeS. ROGERS.

Something About Early and Late;€ut Hay—-Haying in Catching Weather. ‘.- There is so great a diversity of opin- . ion on the subject of hay-making that i it seems singular tlrat farmers should | not more carefully study the questions * connected therewith; and yet it is .. undoubtedly true that:not one farmer in ten.can give the reason why he - cuts his hay just as the last of it is ' going out of blossom; or cuts it when nearly ripe; for there are those who ' practicé ‘and stoutly maintain that " either of these.plans is best: i - The' real facts in the case are, the ~ organic materials in the hay are not essentially different in quantity, cut - in the two seasons we -have mentioii- ¢ edé}but the digestibility of: the two ' _preducts is very eéssentizlly different. _ Careful experiinents have shown that . the early-cut hay is digested and as-.-similated to the extent of from 12 to 20 per cent. more than the late hay, . -other things beirig equal. i ».° . MANY CITY-STABLEMEN ‘ ~, prefer hay cut when .tolerably ripe, . from the fact that théy can better af- - ford to feed grain than hay, for the < reason that it is generally cheaper, .- and - therefore feed only so much hay - as is necessary to divide the grain, and . properly distend the stomachs.of their ~ horses. - Wl;e’n the hay is to be fed on, ~ -the farm, and especially when it is to - be fed to cattle, there is no doubt that ~ early-cut grass is far more econpmical ~_than that allowed to get nearly ripe _ before it is made into hay. -~ - ~ One of ' the great mistakes in ;:a.y- - - making is, the grass is allowed to lie - too- long after mowing before it is . cocked. It-should never be allowed ‘" to lie in the swath over' night, aftcr ? ing partially -dry, if it be possi- ~ Ble to prevent;’ and especially should | it not take rain when in this condiYo .~ Better rake into tumbles, eve i . 3t it have to be spread somewhit Mﬂ;mﬁnz bo Thb lnen cg ~~ the stack. Very often, simply upse Indeed, when it is allowed to stand

some days, it will cure perfectly in the heaps; and, if ‘it undergoes a _slight heat in the meantime, it is not: worse, but beétter forit. . " . . ~ As arule, hay ' cut before 11 o’clock in thie morning, during hot, dry weather, will, in the West, cure sufficiently “for raking by 2.0 r 3 o’clock p. m.; and and all the hay eut in the morning may usually be raked.in the afternoon, ‘- .- P AR e T . -Hay cut after 3:p. m. will not dry sufliciently to injure from the dew; and hay may take rain for twenty-four - hours without much injury, if it be: not wilted before -the rain falls.— Therefore, if the season be a catching one, be not afraid to cut hay down in, cloudy, misty, or-rainy weather, especially if you have a tedder to stir it with thereafter. S e T T IN ORDINARY SEASONS, IN'TIIE WEST, Avhen large fields of hay are to be cut, it -is usual to keep the mower going. from morning to night, raking as. closely as it will-do in the afternoon; and starting the rake agam gbout 11 o'clock -a. m., if the day be hot. .In ‘this way, very-good hay may be made i—and very cheaply too—by raking into win(irows;- then, by passing-the Take along the windrows, it is quickly thrown into ‘tunibles, which a very Tittle labor-will causeto shied rain fair‘ly. . In fine weather, no-tarningis necessary, since, thre heap is carried to the stack usually within the next twenty- | four hours, whence it is quickly trang- | ferred with the-horse-hayfork.. = FTHE PRESENT SEASON HAS BEEN TNba =~ ITOWARD et o Tar for hay-making: If+the weath--‘er continue bad,—and,thereis a strong | probability that it may do so,—a careful study of the weather and the means at hand will jilofte enable theprovident farmer to get.lds hay: together in good cendition, The best advice we ean give-in this instance,’ and the plan which we have followed satisfactorily, is to cut-the grass in bad weather, and cure it and house it as fast as possible when the weather is drying.. = | o ~ One thing in-this connection is well worth remembering: -If hay is rather areen from its own sap, and is put’into -moderate-sized hedps; it: will cure and come’ out in good condition with a ljttlg airing beforé stacking, even thoug hrit may show considerable heat; but, if wet from dew v rain, it be- > comes musty-and bad.. Perhaps someof our readers will say, well, we knew | that Lefore. “If so, forsuch thisis not written. = T : LRt | . Does Wheat Produce Chess? - | "When working on our father's farm was-our occupation, more than twenty vears ago; the-question whether wheat turned into cheat was very earnestly discussed, but never settled. The old discussion was recalled to us theother day, when Mr. Ed’King, of Springfield township, brought into our soffice a handful of this product, called . “cheat,” for a cheat-it is,and we determined to.see the field where it was raised. - Accordingly, on Tuesday ‘last we visited Mr. King’s farm, and saw for ourself a strange and unwanted sight—a field of chess, with a few scattering wheat heads in it; and the crop is a heavy one. If-it-were all wheat it would produce, we: should think, ‘lot less than fifteen bushels to the acre.. Mr. King told us that the seed ‘sown was nice, clean seed, and he cannot account for-such a crop of chess unless the wheat produced it; and as further evidence, he stated that a field | close. by this of his, sowed with the same sced by himself last Tall, is now covered by a very fine wheat crop, 1 probably the best in the county, which will yield twenty bushels to the acre. | We. examined closely tosee whether wheat and chess grew from the same |.stool .or_ bunch, but were unable to find any such instance.. The roots were - often interlaced but were always separable, showing distinet roots -for the wheat and the.chess. But the |-question comes back, how did such a _crop of chess; heavy enough to require ‘the vegetation of all the grain sewn ‘there to produce-it, come to grow v We'do not propose to answer-it; but in Mt. King’s mind there is not a shad--ow-6f doubt that the wheat produced |it; and looking at that heavy crop of chess we are not prepared to dispute it, though we never before saw anything to induce us to give the theory that wheat Will-turn-to “cheat” any credence whatever. - But,. " doubters would do well to. visit this field. - Mr. King formerly lived in- LaPorte {and but recently went to this farm. “The cold weather and:rains of the | spring have- ruined -his prospects for corn; and what he thought was, going -to be. a fine crop of wheat has | cheated him. by. putting forth chess, | yet he is- working away. ‘with an " en- { ergy and a bravery under difliculties that would do credit to a S(ﬂd'frer.——rLa- | Porte Clronigele. -~ . e 3 .

. Acwriter says: Let me add that for quinsy sore throat, goose oil will scatter, remove and bieak-the tumidity or gathering in the throat when all the skill and attention of the doctor have been strained to their utmost, if applied as follows: Mix up pancake batter as you would for dinner, with white flour, and then add. a good: .qllowance of goose oil, well stired in.and fry the pancake in' goose oil .instead of hog’s lard, and.lay on: the outside -of the throat, as you would acloth, while hot ; have two pans on the stove at first; -soon as you- get a second fried .put it on top of the first, and so on for, four or five; cover thehead and throat with a woolen shawl, to keep- cold air from the throat when changing; soon'as you have the sixth ready, raise the lot on -the throat with a warm-hand and put the fresh ones every time next :the throat, and take off the top to lighten -the weight:' keep on applying fresh | pancakes till.the quinsy breaks.. Don’t ‘put.on the.sameé -pancake twice. The ‘pancakes on the top.are tokeep in the strength and the warmth of the goose oil,, Don’t on any account, bare the “throat or expose it to the least cold. - T know from painful experience it.is a smart operation, but the very life depends on the bredking of the- quinsy before it stops or finally closes up.the orifice. Have'a basin and clean warm water ready, and as soon as the patient feels it break, hang.the head over thesille of the bed and try to vomit, forif the matter goes down the wind.pipe,” only" serious consequernces and perhaps death- may ‘instantly . fallow.

If the part.cannot: be kept under water, cover it over with. dry flour, an inch deep or more, " In many instances mothing more is needed after: the flour; simply let it remain until At falls off, when a ‘new skin will be found under. In several cases, while the part ‘injured.is under water, simmer a - leek or two in . an earthen ves‘sel; with half their bulk of-hog’s lard, until the leeks are soft, then strain through a muslin rag. This makes, a greenish colored ointment, which,when cool, Spread - thickly:on a linen cloth and apply it tothe injured part. If there are-blisters let- out the water.—When the part. becomes feverish and uncomfortable, renew- the ointment, and a rapid, painless cure will be the result, if the patient in the meanwhile lives exclusively on fruits, coarse bread and other light loosening diet. |

The Feeder consists of a feed-cup, in 'which there is placed an-adjustable révolving disk with teeth on the side near the edge. These revolving disks ‘ _are all fastened/on the feeder—shaft, and moved laterly to vary the space between the disk and the'side of the feed-cup, which varies the flow of seed as may be required. From the fact that'they are all fastened on theé 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 little as 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 at- ~ tached the indicator arm or lever. There is a scale on the end of the hopper - with figures indicating the different quantities of grain to be sown per acre, and simply moving the indicator to any desired point in the seale, and tightening the tlrumb nut is all you have to do to make the change for any 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. lEvery 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;‘:t,t once;” “This just suits me-and I must have it “Tt is so easily regulated, I can vary just as-little as I please;” “Anybody. can set this avithout making a mistake;” “L.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, timethy 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 all they say about it. - , - ‘ S ! : The manufacturers have had eighteen years’ experience in the manufacture of Drills, and are familiar with all the Drills in this country and in Europe, and we can eonfidently assert that.it has no equal anywhere. We ask you to examine it, and we feel confident that you will be suited. . There are many other valuable improvements on the Buckeye not found on any other Drill. .. For Sale by ; v e b e L et _. J.
