This will make them cluster more closely and be less inclined to fly' away while you make preparations; to hive them.

A comb of honey with some brood and eggs, from an old" stock, would be a great advantage to s swarm starting in iife. This is a very desirable, plan In the case of second swarms or casts, as they fre- quently leave the hive never to return in company with the young queen in her mating trip, but while they have young brood and eggs in the hive they have no desire to leave it, It will not do to delay the htviug of the bees too long after they have settled in a clus- ter, for If the scouts, which have been previously seat out to .find, a suitable new home, return in the meantime the swarm will rise and follow them to, perhaps, parts unknown, CURATE'S ADVENTURE For Foreign S bya Devoe:. ,Taken an 9 Spy re Constable ail n able How an innocent curate was sus•. •peoted by a Devonshire constable of (being a foreign spy when he had lost 'his bearings in the dark was related by the central figure in the incident, ,the Rev.
