them in season they reached the fat-

It was my father's practice to husk

The Prevention of Swarming.
In an experiment looking for the
prevention of swarming, conduetea by
the Bee division of the Dominion Ex-
perimental Farms, no entirely success-
ful method of manipulation was found
when the old queen was left in the
hive. Previous investigations had in-
dicated that the method of dequeening
and requeening at the commencement
of the main -honey flow was the most
promising. In addition to the preven-
tion of swarming, the greater peodiact-
ivity of the young queen supplies one
of the essential factors for successful
wintering, namely, a strong colony
consisting mainly of young bees. It
also makes the colony rnoee valuable
the following year. In the experiment
spoken of, the Dominion Apiarist re-
ports that the colonies were examined
every eight, nine or ten days after
the commencement of the honey flow
from clover and those found to con-
tain larvae in queen cells (a practical-
ly sure sign that the celony will
swarm) were treated by removing the
queen and destroying all occupied
queen cells. At the tiext examination,
nine- days later, the occupied queen
cells were again destroyed' and a
young queen of sAlect parentage in-
troduced to each 'treated colony. It
Was revealed that a nine or ten-day
1 period between the removal of the
queen and the second destruction of
the queen cells was ,better than an
eight-day period, as the bees occasion-
ally built ells over, drone larvae after

has been that so many boys have not
made a definite choice ot a vocation,
but have taken the first "job" that
offered and just drifted. Then in after
years have found themselves burdened
with a yoke. The yoke of uncongenial
work, of distasteful environment, of
inefficiency, of the knowledge that
they are only half the men they should
be either in personal development or
pu ic service. How niay the boy
avoid being burdened with a yoke in
later years?

(2) a knowleage at the requirements
and conditions of success, advantages,
and disadvantages, compensations, op-
portunities and prospeets in the dif-
ferent lines of work. (3) true reason-
ing on the relations of these two
groups of facts.
