To place an escape all that.is neces- sary' is to tip the stack of supers to: be removed- and to elide the escape - board underneath. however, clust-1 ering spaee for the bees and rOom to I take care cf the fall honey which may i be gathered are required, place a super of empty combs -on the brood chamber, eater which the etcape and the Supers of honey may be placed above.

If the severs, after removal, are not immedietely, taken from the apiary, they should be stacked at different points. in the yards with escapes below and above to exclude robbers; till they can be removed by truck or wheel- barrow.

Though the time and method of re - queening 'will vary with the system of management employed, it is necessary that a vigorous! queen 'shall head each coldny in time to fill the hive with plenty of yoeng tees for -wintering. Therefore, all weak or failing queens e•hould be replaced. A good inethoet of requeening--altso of -swarm control -is that practiced at the Centre} Experimental Perna Ot- tawa, for the past two seasons. It consists in removing the old queen, on the appeararice of advaneed queen cells early in the eleven- flow; and de- stroying all cells; and nine days:. 'later again destroying cells and intrastate- ing a young laying queen. Silage Cuts Milk Costs. Dairymen have found that the cow's board bill is the largest item connected with cost of`milk. The man who buys a first-class dairy herd is inclined to believe that the e. ieinal cost of the cows is the exper:' a part. After he has a few yeare cf experience he changes his mind: It is the feed, bill, in seeeen and out, year after year, that totals up the big expense. OUT experiment stations have con- ducted many tests to detexmine the value of silage in the ration. The figures vary to quite an extent, but they all show the economic value of sliege. Several years ago it was de- monstrated that corn silage saved the dairy farmer ten cents a poeml on the 'cost of producing a pound of butter, and forty centt on the cost of produe- I ing 100 peunds of milk. Many of the' early cow -testing aseociations demon-, ' strated that the silo was one of the most important factors in lowering the coat of milk. All of these ex- ' periments and tests, however, are only ; a small part of the proof of the mien- ' only of the vile. The most important 'proof is the fact that one-half million sales are now being used by our most progressive fatonees. , • Wealth in Stones By Louis Hurtubise The Federal and Provincial Depart- ments of Agriculture are continually urging Canadian farmers to follow methods calculated to produce larger arielde froni the areas' they already have in crop rather than in increasing the acreage and being unable to till it preperly. -Crop -yields in general ere very much lselew what is possible, in many cases below that ,which is Profitable: Compare, for instance, the achievements of -Seagee Wheeler and J. G-. Hill with the harvests secured by the average farmer. .Dr. Shutt, the chief 'chemist of'the Dominion Experi- mental Farm says :-"We • have now arrived at that -stage where we DI'Llet 'change from extensive to' intensive farming. It 'is going to be easier and more profitable to farmers to get sixs ty bushels .front One acre than to get thirty bushels' from 'two acres." Fertility Depends on Many Factors. It is a postulate that what conies out of the soil must be pet back if it is to be maintained with its productive powers unimpaired. One of the prime necessities for soil improvement is lime. Annual replenis.hing of the soil is neceseary bec.aase the rainfall each year continnally leaches the soil to such an extent that it 'becomes acid and the yields cf neatly all common crops are reduced. considerably. Ex- pert egrieulturists on both sides of the line are unanimbuS in the opinion that the cheapest, quickest and mest nrelific means of coriecting this acid- ity is through the 'use of lime, and the wonder is that supplies'oelbis product being easily procured in ahhott all farming arease, lime is not in more general use by Canadian farmers, per- ticul.aely in 'the Provinces of Ontario aria Quebec, Lime occurs under different forms, burned lime, water -slicked lime and ground limeatone...The last is the most important for correction of soil; it is a simple material tp handle and' apply and under most conditions, the cheap- limitsmay e said that the mme coarsely the lime- stone is greeted the slower will 'be its action on the soil, Agronomists have recently and after elaborate expert- . emetation reached the conclusion "that the ITIOSt economical form in which limestone should be applied to the soil is in the size of one-quarter inch and finer (alleost the size of the average waste from commercial rock, crush- ing plants). In this form, the lime - same will be so graded that the finest particles beeonie almost immedi- ately available to the soil; the ceerser particles gradualist Ultima effect, and the coaesest (one-quarter inch) being a reserve supply available aftet ell the finer have been utilized. , Such application will steed, thete,fore, only to be made' at lenger intervals than if all the .hinestone applied were se fine lie to be innnediately utilized by the Soil, leaving ivo Ps -serve Supply for fetexe seasons.

The' coarser lime- stone described pleovesean be applied once in fonr or'five years, the 'finer ground limestone requiring more,fre- quent applications. ' The Washington Department of Agriculture states "that the applies - tion frequently pays a dividend' of 100 per cent. the first year 'and the Profits in agriculture feem its con- tinual use are, estimated to be from 300 te-500 per cent." The same de- partment goes on to say that "if all sources of artificial chemical fertiliz- ers failed, our total farm output could not only be maintained but even in- creased -for a thne simply' by the ap- plication of lime to acreage that are now low in yield or lying fallow be- cause they are too sour to grow pro- fitable crops."

The two cockerels were nearly de- nucled of feathers and, many of the hens showed large bare patches, These I cockerels would stand patiently while certain of the hens tugged away at the feathers until they came out.

Swan When Froebel was looking. for a name suitable for his system of edu- cation, he did not call it "Child Scheel," or "Child House," but 'Knit& Garden," and he intended that the "gardener" of the -kindergarten should ,be the teacher herself. Nearly hale of Erode -Vele Mother Plays deal with the things of nature. At one time he said', "A little child that freely'seeks flowers and -cherishes and cares for them in order to wind. them into- a bouquet for parents Or teaChees cannot be a led- child, Or be- come- a bad man. Such Is child, can easily lie led to the loye,, and to a knowl edge iff ''• hie% Fatheaa--Ge.e_aee e gives him such gifte." Love of ,nature,as the heritage of eltildtheed It eit ,a tendency in every child of every la-nd, be Ise black, white or yellow.

As primitive man opened the early scenes of -his life among the wonders of nature'so -the -child neede theof ex- perience f the race in nature wonder and play. Allsnatural phenomena are matterof personal interest to the young „child; and, towards the moon, stars, sun, wind and rain he _f.eele the inherent interest of the race. It is well to be able to tell the chil- dren the nanms cf the plants and flowers they bring, end -to awaken in 'them a longing to know more of the wonderful life at the .bird, bee and other inserts. Child -rest Jove the stories of animal anti , plant life. they love nature be- cause they are e. part of it. It is a go -cd thing for children to collect specimens.; how they revel in ,the woodls no matter what season it may be!

Wilt sect the childiten be interested to, know that acorns grow only on eak trees, and that they are the seeds of the oak as well as flood for es -miracle? - We may have only a vacant let near, but if so, ..we possess a whole plant colony for, , "In the'med, end scum of things, There always, always something ,singe." s How, many_ (lifferent weeds grow there,- while others are unable to do so? . • One of cur most delightful kieder- garten excursions, was the suggestion of a child, to see hew many different kinde ocf clover's we could' find., and no one seemed toyed,. We need not ho surprised if questiens of mal scientific value be asked be. the'children-Why do people -call these ;white flowers dog- wood?" was the•thaughtial inquiry of one of my itiedersearten children.
