It appears that there is not much prcespect that the birth rate in fleas dinainieh, since Mme. Flea lays her ;eggs the year round from one to five at a time. But, like any other inecclis and mammals, he is callous M to the fate of her offspring, for she, takes no interest whatever in her eisgS and leaves her young to ehift for themselves from the day of their birth. Certain fleae, It further appears, are more catholic in their tastes than others. Some seem to be strictly con- fined to one host, altheugh at the . eteine titre it should be borne in mind that no fleas are more than what are .calted ternporarY 'parasites, which Illeatee that they nese but a portion Of their lives on their hoses, hopping on and off at intervals. All fleas ap- partiatly proceed from host to host. But although they may otcasion- ally', pass from one (species of host to another, they do not, for the most . part, seem to flourish in unaccustom- ed guar -tees. For that reason a "hu - read" flea Is only eometimes found on epee 'land dogs, and "eat" and "doe" fleit's only occasionally on human b- , lege:. One of the moat curioue facto iegaiting animal fleas is that all of prey are sometimes found tie'harbor the fleas of animals theY 14ve devoured.

We Drink It But Are Not Auth- orities On Flavor. ' • In part the high price of coffee is attributed to a frost in parts of Bra- zil, but vamps causes have eontri- buted. Puerto Rico, for example, which never is touched by frost had last year a small crop, and the price of coffee in the ieland has increased 100 per cent. This has been ascrib- ed sometimes to prohibition, but it is doubtful whether Puerto Rico could drink much more coffee than it was drinking before prohibition went into effect; its consumption of alcohol was extremely moderate •and its consump- tion of coffee large, as le apt to be the case in the tropics. It is noteworthy in this country that many of the plans for a sub- stitute for the saloon call for the provision of coffee as a subetitute for alcoholic drinke. In the cafes of Europe the two go side by side, . on an equal footing; at the same table one person may be drinking coffee and another beer. It might also be said that Europeans drink wine or beer with their meals and take their coffee in public, while Canadians drink coffee with their meale and take their alcohol in secret. This materially affects the position of cof- fee as a substitute. If -the coffee house is to be • re- stored to the position it once had, considerable changes will need to be made in national habite and tastes. Used in moderation coffee is a rela- tively harmless stimulant, but it can- not be consumed so freely as beer. and most coffee drinkers take already quite as much as is good for them.

As a rule, the smaller breeds Of fowls, comnnly spoken of as egg -breeds, such as the Leghorn, Catnpines and Ham - burgs, are not well suited to backyards. Again, the very heavy breeds, classified as meat breeds, which include the Brali- mas, Codhins and Langhans, are not so well suited to side -line poultry keeping. The former are too small for profitable meat production. The latter are too large for maximum egg preduction. )3etwixt-and-between varieties aro gen- erally advocated for tho.se who keep poultry for home consumption, espepially under conditions that require' natural in- cubation and brooding. An all-round, general-purpose chicken Is tile ideal bird for the back -totter. It must 'Be a good layer and a trust -worthy winter layer. No amount of other favorable qualifica- tions cart • make amends for failure in these respects. But, tile back -totter does not want to get eggs at the expense of meat, espec- ially if he can combine the tIvo. He wants a plump fowl of fair weight, one that Will dress well at all ages from broiler size to old age. Also, he wants a quiet, friendly bird. The value of this quality cannot be overlooked. Nervous, noisy chickens which are given to fence flying and digging* up the neighbor's rosebed are too troublesome for the suburban, poultry keeper.N AMEIHCAN BREEDS BEST.

SUMMERS, BOX 8, Windsor, Ont. 64 6 An old Mary'and fruit grower says Peach trees are short lived because they are transplanted, According to his theory, based upon experience, peach trees will live for many years if started from seed planted in good soil, where the tree" is to develop. Peach trees do not come true from seed. An orchard of thees grown from seed would hardly have two trees pro- ducing similar fruit. This is overeome by grafting. The •seeds or peach pits are saved from fruit used for canning or table use. They are •washed end spread out in an open, airy piece to dry and planted at once where the trees are to develop. Plant' eix or eight seeds in a space a feot in diameter. Tliis may seem like liberal planting, but the seeds are plentiful, and one of the lot is quite sure to grow. The soil must be mellow and thoroughly drained. After the seeds have been planted, mulch the soil over them with manure, hay or long grass and weeds.

In all parts of Canada it ia neces- sary to provide some protection for the bees during the long, cold winter months in order to obtain the,best re - results from them. This protection can be given in two ways, either by plac- ing the whole apiary in a special re- pository or cellar, or by packing the bees in cases outside. to the colder parts of Canada such as the prattle Provinces and the northern parte ot Ontario and Quebec, while it may be possible to winter .Outeide it eilffic- ient packing is given, it would be safer to winter in the cellar, ln the warmer regions, outside wintering ap- pears to be equally as good US cellar wintering. The first essentials for successful wiutering inside are that the cellar should be well insulated against the variations in outeide temperatures, it should be dry and dark and the temperature should be regulated so as. to stand at 48 degrees to 50 degrees F. Very little ventilation is requir- ed. The bees should not be disturbed any more than is abeolutely nee:es-- eery during the entire winter. For outside wintering, cases can be used that will hold one or more colonies, oue holding four colonie • appears to be the moat desirable. The cases should be large enough to allow from 3 inches. to 6 inches of packing on the bottom and four sides, and about 10 inches on tele For packing, either planer shavings, West leaves, or chaff, can be used. There ehould also be a windbreak around the apiary. An evergreen hedge or an eight foot board fence are the best. Before deciding which method te adopt, the beekeeper should study his conditions and what he haa available. If he has a good cellar meeting the above requirements, it would be ad- visable fon him to use it, especially if he has only a few colonies. Under other conditione it may be easier and cheaper for him to build cases and winter „oittside.There is More latTor 'attached to paclitingebees in the fall To Asthma, Hay Fever and Catarrh sufferers.

The seedlings are grafted. by cutting them off about a foct above the ground with a diagonal cut, extending an inch or mere along the surface. The scion is cut diagonally tn the same manner and should be the same diameter at the stock. The joint should be nicely fitted and tied with grafting wax, The scion lie d be only a few inches long. As the trees grow per- mit no branches to start below tae graft. When the union is complete, that is when the bark on Alm stock and the scion has grown together, the raffia may be removed.

The result will be, according to the reports of this old peach grower, peach treee That will fruit abund- antly and live twice as long as or and unpacking in the spring than there is in carrying the bees into the cellar and out again. On the Other hand, bees in the cellar will need mote et- tention during the winter. As a rule, bees packed outside do not need atten- tion from the time they are packed untll they are unpacked in the spring, whereas the cellar will need cleaning up and the temperature regulated throughout the winter. Both methods of wintering have been triad for • a number of years at the Experimental Farm, Ottawa, The beee wintered inside placed in the cel- lar beneath the Bee Building, and those wintered outside are Placed in quadruple awes with planer shavings used as 5. parking, and an eight foot board fence as a windbreak, The average loss of bees in the cellar le nil against 5.4 per cella for outeide, while the consumption of stores does not show much difference; for the cellar it was 21.3 lbs. against 23,8 lbs, for those in the caees. The average number of combs covered in the spring shows an advantage for those wintered outside, being 5.4 as egainet 5.0 for the cellar. These figures are taken from October 11, when *a bees were packed oittside, and April 15 when the bees were removed from the cellar, It hasalsobeen found that eealed covers have given better results at Ottawa than upward ventilation, also that 8 inches of packing gives as good re- sults as 6 filches....
