The Removal and Care of
Extracted Honey.
Honey should not be removed from
the hive until it is ripe, otherwise it
is likely to ferment in a short time.
The combs should be at least two-
thirds capped before the honey is
extracted.
When the time comes to extract, the
bees may be cleared from the supers
by using bee-escape boards fitted with
bee-escapes. The wood-wire board
arrangements could be made, no doubt,
with automobile service stations for
saving the drainings from cars which
have their oil supplies replenished.
Waste lubricant of this sort has little
commercial value and can be obtained
without great cost in considerable
quantity if arrangements are made
for saving it.—-0. C.

While it takes experience to cull

hesitate to make a start, as the rank

even by the inexperienced. With in

Cow Testing Progress.
There were 502 cow-testing centres,
2,685 dairy herds under test, and 26,-
203 tests conducted this year, mainly
under the supervision of Dominion
Dairy officials, up to the end of June
last. Five of the provinces show a
; Jews. Part of the message of Paul
on this journey was a declaration or
decree of the Council of Jerusalem
which said that Gentile converts were
to be free from the Jewish observance
of circumcision. But in the eyes of
[ the Rabbinical law, the child* of a
Jewish mother was reckoned as a Jew.
Timothy, therefore, in the eyes of the
Jews, would not be a Gentile who had
freedom from circumcision, but a Jew
who had ignored the religious require
ments of his race. Therefore, while
■ Paul thought that neither circumcision
[ nor uncircumcision availed anything,
yet, as a matter of tactful policy in
non-essential matters, he sought to re
move any prejudices of the Jews
against Timothy.

A DAY’S VACATION
No farm family can afford to dis
regard the matter of a day’s vacation
now and then for all the members of
the family. A day’s recreation is
especially important where young
folks make up a considerable part of
the home. Regardless of the usual
pressure of farm operations it is pos*
sible during the “slack” periods of th<
summer to arrange for a day’s outing
for the family in some shady grove,
or at some other place of general
interest.
If an auto is available, as it is on
most farms, you can visit one or otheF
of the more distant places of interest.
Sometimes several neighboring fam
ilies can join together in a sort of a
community picnic. Should many fam
ilies participate, there should be some
lively games which will provide the
neded social contact of those present.
The suggestion for a day’s vacation,
may be met with the argument that
time can not be taken from farm
work. To this argument, Dr. Mc
Keever, in his “Farm Boys and Girls,”
would answer, “Work on the farm,
while always pressing, is never done,
and when the farm family needs a
vacation it should get it.”
Boys and girls, as well as their
mothers, are a splendid help on the
farm. Indeed, they are partners in
the farm business. The value of their
efforts can not be estimated satisfac
torily to all concerned in the terms of
dollars and cents. Nor, can they be
expected to do their best when the
daily tasks on the farm have become a
round of monotony and drudgery.
Provide for them a day’s outing oc
casionally and the situation changes.
They will work at their tasks with a
different attitude and a mors hopeful
outlook on farm life as a whole.
Ir. connection with any outing two
factors should be kept in mind; 1.
Where may we go that all may re
ceive the maximum of benefits and en
joyment from the time spent? 2. How
long shall we stay?
All members of the family may well
have a voice in settling thess ques
tions, especially the question of where
to go. Enjoyment for the young
folks, as well as for the parents,
should be the object sought. Benefits
to the farmer from closer touch with
his neighbors, as well as with the
community at large, should have con
sideration also.
The length of the outing must be
determined by conditions at hom?—■
that is, chores—as well as by the
fatigue which it brings to the indi
viduals. No vacation should continue
after folks, the children especially, are
tired and out of sorts. Time spent
away from the farm should end when
it is no longer wholesome, inspiring
and refreshing.—------«--------
British Market Cattle
Requirements.
An experiment in shipping chilled
meat to Britain, conducted by the Fed
eral Department of Agriculture, has
led to the conclusion that, all things
considered, it is more profitable to
ship store cattle or fat cattle for im
mediate slaughter than to kill in Can
ada and ship the meat chilled. Evi
dence Beems to show that the most
remunerative method is to ship such
cattle as fit requirements for sale as
short-keep or long-keep stores; al
though well-finished cattle, uniform as
to size, weight and finish, will meet a
good demand if shipped for immediate
slaughter. Smooth polled, well-bred
steers weighing from a thousand to
twelve hundred and fifty pounds, live
weight, best fill the requirements for
stores.

it is desirable to start from fifty to a
hundred years before he is born.
There is doubt in the minds of biolo

believing in tl

heredity does count.
Tradition. It is a fine thing for a
family to have traditions. Timothy
inherited from his mother’s mother
certain standards. Lois, in her loyalty
to Jehovah, doubtless influenced the
mind, and helped to form the char
acter of her daughter Eunice. Paul
refers to “the unfeigned faith which
dwelt first in thy grandmother Lois,
1 and thy mother Eunice.”
Christian Nurture. Important as is
the spirit and atmosphere of a home,
there should also be a definite religious
training. This was a duty laid by the
ancient law upon all Jewish parents
(see Deut. 6: 7).
