WHAT IT MEANS. (Toronto Saturday Night.) There seems to be a general misap- prehension as to the meaning of a Cor- onation. It is not a glorification of an individual but an institution, of a whole race, and of a thousand years of tradition. Every Englishman feels him- eelf a participant in this mighty de- monstration of the power, wealth and influente of that British Empire of which the crown and its wearer form the apex. It is worth while pointing out that while the Government of England is carried on ley Mr. .Asquith and his Cabinet it Is the institution of ritonar- chy, and not the particular individual, however able, who happens for the time being to wear the crown, which holds the -British Empire together. Take the case of India, for instance, which is ruled by virtue of the fact that the ser- vants, of the King constitute a white caste over all ether casts. This caste would, disappear with the abolition of • the monarchy, for in the Oriental mind monatchy is inseparable front all gov- ernment, and 13ritish rule in India would be at an end.

Beekeepers who within recent years have had foul brood in their apiaries should be particularly careful to prevent robbing during the warm days between now and sununer. All hives where bees have died must be taken indoore away from all poseible robbing. It is not enough to close them, because robbers will often gam an entrance when least expected. All entrances of live colonies should be made quite small, especially where the bees are weak in numbers. Use every precaution and watehful- enese to prevent robbing. Do not under any circumstances leave combs of honey out for the bees to clean up. Any honey you have is likely to contain germs which would scatter disease in your healthy colonies. On account of preval- ence of disease in unexpected places throughout the province it is never wise to feed honey to bees. and where dis- ease is known to exist it is the worst of Ef vo lelry. y beekeeper should. understand fully the symptoms and cure of foul brood, and then he ean be his own doc- tor, Thcee. who do not should drop a card to the Ontario Department of Agri- culture, Toronto, and a bulletisi'. with deseription and full instructions will be sent. - • Particular attention is called to sec- tion 4; of the "Act for the suppression of foul brood of bees," which reads as fol. lowe : "The inspector shall have full power, In his •discretion, to order the owner or possessor of any bees dwelling in box or immovable frame hives, to transfer them to movable frame hives within a specified thne, and! in default the in- spector may destroy, or order the de- etruction of such hives and the been dwelling therein. 10 E. 7, 27, e. 4;" Anyone keeping bees in hives of this deseription. will render a service to out ER DOCTOR FAILED Lydia E.

Will you kindly inform me, through The Farmers' Advocate, of when man- ure can be secured at the Toronto *Melt yards for 75 cents per ton) Lob,' with a 65 cent freight rate, and delivered within one mile of a farm, whether it would be more profitable to bey it and sell hay at $12, and grain at an average of $1 per hundred, or to buy stock and feed It, the objet being to increase the yields on 100 -acre farm as fast and profitable as possible, J. P. Ans.----The answer to your question 14 complicated by the variability in resulte obtained by different men in feeding stock himself, his limitless ability iii buying and selling, his skill in feedieg the class of :dock he keeps, :stabling ac- commodation, and other factors. Live stock, to be profitable, must be some- thing more than animated manure fac- tories, but acme farm animal* are little more than this. With_ reasonable coin - patent stock -husbandry, however, we ehould say it would pay bettor to feed the farm -produced, bay and grain to good cattle, horses, sheep and hogs, rather than te sell produce and buy man- ure. Of course, for most profitaole re- sults, corn silage and alfalfa hay should be largeler utilized, if it e's possible to grow them arall sueeessfully. Provieion of winter labor and guarding against chances of introducing bad weed seeds, are two strong points in favor of feed- ing the hay and grain upon the fartn. lebover hay especially 'should be fed, rather than sold.—Fe.rmers' Advocate. •Afraid to Eat ? • Dots the fear of indigestion spoil the .enjoyment of. your meals It needn't. just take THE CANADIAN HEN. (Christian Guardian.) Canada has a population of probably a little less than 8,000,000, and we have hundreds of 'millions of acres of agri- cultural laud, yet uuworked. We have about 25.000,000 head of poultry in Can- ada, and yet, last year, we imported 5133,S70 dozen more eggs than we export- ed. We had to bring eggs from the United Stated and Russia, and even from China and Japan, in order to feed our people, The Farmer's Advocate reck- ons that we ought to have at least 80,- 000,000 head of poultry in Canada, which, on the conservative basis of $1 profit for each hen per annum, would. mean a net profit to the owners of at least 680,000,000. One difficulty appears to be that we do not get enough eggl from the hens we have. If we have 22,000,000 hens, and. each hen laid 150 eggs a year, that would give up 3.300,000,000 eggs, or more than 400 per annum for every man, woman and chila in Canada. This would metal more than one egg a day for every day in the rear. But it does not seem in the least probable that we con- sume so many, and the conclusion must be that our hens are not doing their, duty. and you won't know you have a stomach.

The Royal Scottish Arboricuitural So- ciety has just issied a report on the general subject, with a special detailed scheme for an experimental enterprise drawn up by Lord Lovat and Captain Stirling, of Iteir, with the aid of ex- perts. It covers the region of Glen Mor, through which the Caledonian Can al runs and which embraces 00,000 acres of land, of which only 900 acres are suitable for cultivation, so that only twenty-five families living on twenty acres apiece or ninety families existing miserably on ten acres can be support. ed lo it.

TRUE BLESSEDNESS. It is not blew& to know that thou thy- self art blessed: True joy wee never yet hy one, nor yei. by two posseased, Nor to the many ts it given, but only to the all; The joy that leaves one heart unblessed would be for mine too entail; For when my spirit. Meat wasblest, to know another grieved Would take away the joy front all my' self reeeived. Nor would I seek to Want that pain, forgetting other's Woe; Prom, knowledge, not from want of thought, true blessednese must grow. For bleesednese 1 find Me earth of ours is then no place, Where still the happiest man must meet his 'brother's grieving face. And only in one thought I find, a joy I never miss, In faith to •know all grief below will grow to final bliss. And he who liolda this faith will striVe with firm and ardent soul, And- work out his own proper good in working for the whole. God only sees this perfect good, the way to its dim; God only then is truly blest, man only blessed by Him; '--Ruekert's Wisdoni of the Brahmins, PROPHET'S MESSAGE. (Rev. Dr. Currie.) The prophet gets his inessage from God, and must declare It A. ecientiet is on record, as • saying, when going to perform an experiment in his la,boratory, "1 am going to ask God a question: , The prophet's work is like that. Ile goes to the Bible, to commentaries, to the university, to the seminary; these are all good and. necessary, but if he goes no further° he is it disciple of the scribes, not of Jesus. To be a disciple of Jeans he must go to the book of life throbbing around him. He must go to the people. Here he will find Injustice, fraud, worldliness, meanness, pride, exclu- siveness, preventable diseases, poverty, sorrow. He will find conditions where there is much that is evil; He must not be too timid or too holy to discover what wickedness exists in high and low places. Then he does what the scientist did, he goes to the secret place with his appalliog prob- lem, and asks God questions. We seemed to have stopped asking God questions, to assume that although He spoke to Isaiah, John the Baptist, Paul and the other apostles, He has withdrawn for two thousand years into seelusion, and no tenger speaks to His children, that for these. cen- turies He has been an abeentee God. From the very presence of God the prophet comes with courage, with a message he must utter a message fresh from God, expressly for Him, to -give to the people to whom he speaks, dealing with their sins, discouragements, duties, opportunities; calling them to repent- ance, service, hope. At times the prophet goes to the wilderness and meets the devil, who suggests a luxurious, indolent life, a brilliant, startling career, a career of popularity, authority and power. How alluring and inviting his promises are! Alas! how often we seem to yield to them. The true ' prophet comes back from these conflicts strong, with the spirit of the Lord -upon him, because Iso has anointed im to preach the Gospel to the poor- he hath sent him to heal the brokenfhearted, to preach deliverance to the captives and recov- ering of sight to the blind, to set at liberty them that are hunted, to preach the acceptable year of the Lord. He becomes cOvetious of being the ambassador of a great King. Like John, he will feel himself to have been the Subject of propheey, that something has been written of hint. Ile will not find it profitable to spend. much, time endeavoring to determine what propheey has been fulfilled M Napoleon, Bismarck or A/the colossal figures that •have moved irt the field of history. He looks into prophecy to find out what it has predicted of hiluself, What he ought -to say to his generation. He seeks to discover himself and the plaec eh has to fill in the life Of the world. To him, too, there will come the- consciousness of John when he said, "I am, not Ile; itth the vole of one' crying hi the Wilda- ness, prepare ye the way of the Lord." One is standing among you, whom ye know not. This One is standing at the doors of individtial, ilociel, industrial, • comlnereial, religi- ous, natural life, and the • prophet helps to open these doers for Him that he may enter into the life of the • wotld, the present world to -day. lie seee Hint touting, cotnieg emitinuallY it the eland% the Clouds of histOty, the clouds or perseeution, the tin -Moil in the world of labor and politice, itt • the endlese struggle for deliveranee, justiee and freedom.
