A !HERMIT FOR FIVE YEARS.
the brood chamber so arranged that
the bees can come up between they
frames and suck the syrup through the
cheesecloth. Air pressure will prevent
the syrup running out any faster than
it is taken by the bees. Five or six of
these jars can be placed on one hive at
once and warm packing placed around
them to prevent the escape of heat
from the colony. In a few days the
bees will have taken the syrup all down
and stored it in the combs when the jars
can be taken off and the packing fixed
down on the hives for winter.
The Ontario Agricultural Collegar,
Guelph, is offering a free course of
lectures on beekeeping lasting two
weeks during January, Persons inter-
ested in taking this course should write
to the President of that Institution,
asking for a copy of the programme.
Whit would make the greatest im-
pression on a man who had been shut
away from human intercourse and denied
the use of newspapers for five years -
what •tl ould most forcibly attract his
attention on regaining the society of
his fellowmen? "Well," you say, "he
is fairly certain to be interested in learn-
ing whether there's been a change of
Government." True, and probably he
will show mild exeitment if you can tell
him there's been a big war in Europe.
But it won't be until you get down to a
recital of things that come closer to him,
personally, that you'll bring him to his
feet with eager questioning. Tell him a
mighty empire has fallen, and -so long
as it isn't HIs empire -a drop curtain of
highly embroidered indifference will
mask his face. But tell him the auto-
mobile bas been so simplified that he
can now buy one for the priceofa horse
and buggy, and he'll promptly bombard
you with questions. A revolution in
China may be a world event, but it
wouldn't mean Ls much to him as the
perfecting of a shaving apparatus that
would do away with the necessity of pur-
chasing new blades or honing old ones.
If You had been a hermit for the past
five years, the news of an earthquake in
San Francisco wouldn't really mean so
much to you as the information that you
can now hear any famous opera singer
in your own home at the cost of a few
cents per hour. Which is only another
way saying that the phogograph is of
more PERSONAL interest than an earth-
quake. You see how it is: Newspapers
carry a "news of merchandise" that is
just as vital,, as the "news of events"
which the editors gather for us. And
since this "news of merchandise" finds
its only expressicu in the form of Ad-
vertising, must we not admit that the
Advertising colarnns are quite as worthy
of our serious attention as the scariest
"scare head"or the most ponderous ed-
itorial? Shut your eyes to Advertising
-=and you shut out the news of commer-
cial progress and development --the news
of things that make life worth the liv-
ing.
Dou't Lei: The Pees Starve.
Buckwheat honey seems to be a very
scarce article this fall. Dealers in this
product who usually buy and sell from
fifty thousand to one hundred thousand
pounds every year are having greater
difficulty than usual in getting their
winter's supply. As bees in a great
many parts of Ontario depend on fall
honey for their winter's stores, this
would indicate that they will also he
running short before spring unless the
beekeepers are careful to see that they
are suppliedwith artifical stores. The
Provincial Apairist, Mr. Morley Pettit,
gives the following directions for mak-
ing feed for wintering bees:
Place twenty pounds of water in a
boiler on the stove and bring to a boil,
then stir in fifty pounds of best granul-
ated sugar, stirring thoroughly until
fully dissolved; bring the syrup nearly
to,a boil again and stir in three tea-
spoonfuls of 'tartaric acid previously
dissolved in half a cup of water. This
makes a good thick syrup, which will
make the very best of winter stores for
bees.
A good colony of bees will require
thirty or more lbs. of this syrup unless
they are well supplied with honey. At
this late date the only feeder to use for
outdoored wintered bees is the half gal-
lon fruit jars. Fill the jar, draw over
the top of a piece cheesecloth, then
screw down the ring holding the cheese-
cloth tight. The jar of syrup is now
placed upside down on the frames of

The readers of this paper will be
pleased to learn that there is at least
one dreaded disease that science has
been able to cure in all its stages, and
that is Catarrh. Hall's Catarrh Cure
is the only positive cure now known to
the medical fraternity. Catarrh being
a constitutive' • disease, requires a con-
stitutional treatment. Hall's Catarrh
Cure is taken internally, acting direct-
ly upon the blood and mucous surfaces
of the system, thereby destroying the
foundation of the disease, and giving
the patient strength by building up the
constitution and assisting nature in do-
ing its work. The proprietors have so
much faith in its curative powers that
they offer One Hundred Dollars for any
case that it fails to cure. Send for list
of testimonials.

A Repositoy of State Secrets.
The retirement of Lord Knollys, the
King's private secretary, is announced.
Few people understand how really oner-
ous have been the duties which Lord
Knollys has carried out for so long.
The work of the King's private secre-
tary is never finished. It is of so con-
fidential a nature that, next to the King
himself, the private secretary knows
more of the things that matter than any
man in the kingdom. The confidential
reports of the Prime Minister, the For-
eign Secretery and all the other officers
of State as well as all social matters,
pass through his hands. He opens the
despatch bags and goes through the con-
tents with the King hearing his views,
taking notes and after framing re-
plies. He is thus conversant with the
inner working of the machiney not only
of the kingdom but of the whole empire
and has more intimate knowledge than
than any one of the relations of this
country with other Powers. Prime Min-
isters and Foreign Secretaries come and
go, but the King's private secretary re-
mains. It is no wonder that Lord Knollys
at the age of 74 feels that it is time to
retire from such an exacting post.
Preparing the Goose for Cooking.
After killing the goose, dip in water
near the boiling point until the water
has penetrated to the skin, then roll in
an old blanket or anything that will pre-
vent the escape of the steam. Leave
about ten minutes, then begin with the
legs and rub the feathers toward the
bead. After the goose is cleaned of
feathers dress as any other fowl. Some
lake to pluck the large feathers while
the fowl is still warm, then dip in boil-
ing water, wrap up, and the steam wil
loosen the down so it can be rubbed off.
To truss the goose, cut off the head and
feet, split the skin at' the back of the
neck and take out the gullet and wind-
pipe; make a long slit to the breastbone
and remove the intestines without
breaking. Clean the inside of the car-
cass and remove the olg bag from the
rump. Fold the wings back and, with
a darning or other long needle and
twine, fasten in the long skin; put the
legs close to the sides and fasten with a
stitch through the body of the goose,
sew up the vent and fasten down the
legs with a stitch through the rump.
It is now ready for stuffing and cooking,
or cooking without stuffing -
Cooking Notes.
When making 'thickening' for sauces,
gravies, etc., use half flour and half
corn starch. This is much better.
Before cooking a ham take off a thin
"shaving," also the rind, and see how
much nicer flavored your ham will be.
To prevent eggs from sticking to the
pan or breaking, add a spoonful of flour
to the grease in which they are fried,
When boiling molasses or sugar can-
dy rub the dish in which it is being boil-
ed with butter alt arouna about an inch
from the top and it will not boil over.
Try whipping the cream in the upper
part of a boiler With fine ire or cold
Water laced in
the lower art
The
cream will not spatter so much and will
be 'kept cool and will whip mach more
quickly.

A NEW YEAR'S RESOLVE.
Oh, the first of the year's too cold, I
fear,
For the cause of a true reform.
'Twere better to wait for a later date
When things are a bit more warm.
The trouble that lies in the way of the
wise
Who'd leave had habits behind.
Their virtuous sniff is frozen stiff
By the chill of the winter's wind.
The good intent of the righteous bent
Is nipped by the frosty air,
And the news turned leaf soon comes
to grief
And withers beyond repair.
Old Janus bold, with his blasts so cold,
Bites deep on the virtuous nose;
Reform is lost in the awful frost
That comes with the month of snows.
'Twere better by much to await the
touch
Of a genial May day sun
For putting on ice your favorite vice,
With which you at last are done.
For the tenderest flower in Nature's
bower
That time can never evolve
Is a sturdy oak, and that's no joke,
Compared to a good resolve.
And that is why, with the new year by,
To my vicious ways I cling,
And contra bonos mores go
'fill the warmer days of spring.
-John Kendrick Bangs In Harper's
Weekly.
Baths for Plants.
It is not unlikely that you will note
with disappointment that some of your
cherished window plants are not so
sprightly and fresh looking as when you
brought them into the house, and it is
more than likely that the difficulty rests
with dust clogged pores. It will be
found of great advantage to give the
foliage a good washing occasionally
with a spray or shower of water. A
good point to remember is that an oc-
casional good Soaking, rather than a
frequent surface watering, is better
for
the roots, will produce better flowers
and there will be less likelihood of in-
aeLta. Every two weeks is not too
often to give the plants a good tub
soaking, end for this purpose a bath-
tub of quite win% Water is best. They
may be left in We bath for half or
three-quarters
of an hour without
harm and with, indeed, surprisingly
good results.

FEEDING GRAiN
TO YOUNG CALVES
As Boon ar the calf is licked dry it
usually gets up and begins to suck.
Some farmers do not allow it to suck l
at all, but it is better to allow the calf
with to stay the cow for a favi days. if
the cow's udder is at all inflamed or
caked the rubbing by the calf seemitto
help to soften it and reduce the Whoa -
elation, but two to five days ought to
be sufficient. At all events, the calf
should be fed the colostrum or first
milk of the mother,
Just after weaning the calf should
not be fed more than ten pounds of
milk per day. divided into three feed-
ings. This should be given at blood
temperature, about 100 degrees. The
amount of milk then can be increased
gradually to twelve pounds at the end
of two weeks. Do not yield to the
temptation to feed more, because over-
teeding is the chief cause of scours.
1^rom aloe to seven weeks old the ra-
tion may be ii creased from fourteen
to fifteen pounds daily, while eighteen
to twenty pounds may be given to a
calf three to four months old.
After two to three weeks skimmtlk
may be substituted for a part of the
whole milk, but the change should be
The Ayrshire cow is said to be tho
most economical producer of milk
and butter of any of the eo called
dairy breeds, giving the largest
Qua nifty for the feed consumed and
yielding the largest net profit. The
Ayrshire has a strong, healthy
body, with plenty of vitality and
vigor, is rarely sick and almost
never has any disease of udder or
teats. The Ayrshire cattle are of
medium size, weighing at maturity
about 1,000 pounds. In color they

portions of the two colors ,being

made gradually, not faster than oue fo
two pounds per day. A little grain
may be fed after three to four weeks,
preferably placed in a box after the
milk Is eaten. One-half to three-fourths
of a pound of ground corn or oats daily
makes a good feed. The starches of
these feeds must be acted upon by the
saliva of the mouth in order to digest,
and therefore the grain should not be
given in the milk. as It would be swal-
lowed without chewing.
Calves will begin to nibble on ,tray ate
about tour weeks of age and Can be
fed what good, clean hay tbel• will
eat. Alfalfa is perhaps too Igxative to
ire ra'L te, young calves, bur may be giv-
en after three' :o •tour'months. All
changes in feed should Go gradual.
Calves should not be turned out to pas-
ture unless they have hada little green
flied before. as it is liable to cause
i:rours. Give all the fresh, clean wa-
ter the calf will drink. -l3. 0. Jones,

Rations That Make Thrifty Pigs.
There is a hue bung of bogs at the
University of Wisconsin. The house
that they live in is one that -could be
uved by any farmer. The feed that is
used. however, Is really what brings
the excellent results. For little pigs
the ration Is made up as follows: Thir-
ty•tive pounds of oats ground fine,, tbir-
ty-five pounds of middlings, twenty
pounds of cornmeal, nine pounds of oil-
meal and a pound of salt. This makes
a hundred pounds, which Is mixed care-
fully and fed in a slop.
The brood sows are fed a ration about
like the following: Twenty-three pounds
of cornmeal, 000Y -three pounds of
ground oats, twenty-four pounds of
bran, twenty-three pounds of middlings,
six pounds of oilmeal and a pound of
salt. This is also fed in a slop.
In feeding alfalfa the hay is cut fine
and mixed with grain as follows: Fif-
teen pounds of alfalfa, thirfy`pounds of
ground oats, thirty pound* of mid-
dlings, fifteen pounds of cornmeal, nine
pounds of oilmeal and a pound of salt.
This makes a hundred pounds of the
mixture.
The following t'atIon,is designated as
a ration for growing swine: Thirty
pounds of cornmeal, thirty pounds of
around oats. thirty pounds of mid-
dlings. nine pounds of oilmeal and a
pound of salt. When the hogs are to
be fattened corn is added to tbls mix-
ture.
