Mr. Jones' Home Apiary.
My excursion closed with a day at
Benton, where I hail an opportunity of
thoroughly inspecting three out of the
four apiaries carried on by Mr. Jones.
His home apiary is located in the heart

terference with the steady habits of
these insects,- which, ia thought by
. Many to irritate theM, ie being exer-
cised, not occasionally merely, but
daily and hourly t yet the villagers
pass and repass the bee -yard without
molestation, and many are hardly con-
scious of what is going on within the
eneloeure. It is this establishment
cleee to the post office, express office
and iailroad station which keeps up
the supplies constantly needed on the
island, 100 miles . distant, which were
noticed in my last article concerning
this trip, Within a few miles of Bee -
ton Mr. Jones has three other apiaries
devoted to the production of honey. ' I
visited two of them. The hives were
arranged in an orderly manner, em-
bowered in a grove of sunflowers, and
the bees were hard at work on golden
rod and boneset, which are among the
latest fall flowers that yield honey.
Extractieg for the market is
over for the sewn. It now re-
mains to build up stocks for the winter,
see that they are well queened, and
feed such as are deficient in stores. Mr.
Jones' honey crop will be about 30,000
pounds, and would have been farlarger,
but for sales of stooks and the inroads
made on working colonies for queen -
breeding. All told, I- fancy Mr. Jones'
bee business the present year will foot
up in the neighborhood_ of $15,000. It
needs only a Jones in every county'
of Ontario to make a similar showing.
There is honey ; the bees canlee had
for the rearing of them. Give us only
the skille bee master, who can mar-
shal and manage the faithful little in-
sect -work rs, and the result is as cer-
tain as th t from grain growing, stook -

Iia ersoll Unmasked.
An Atieri�an writer, Mr. Clark
Braden, h4.s written a pamphlet en-
titled "Ingersoll Unmasked," which
, purports tc be a trae history of the life
' and eharaeiter of the infidel lecturer.
Mr: Braden says that Ingersoll'a early
life WEik! 'teased in loafing in the Worst
society, and that instead of working for
a living, he sponged upon his When a
clergyman with a small salary. Re
was a gambler, a drunkard, a rowdy,
and a frequenter of the vilest resorts.
He Itecarcie so notorious at his home in
Marion, nois, that he was forced to
leave—"an utterly played -out, broken-
down, drun en dead beat." Many of
Ingersoll's Irankeu sprees and disgrace-
ful actions are recorded with day and
date, and it is recorded that while he is
anxious to Make aireputation for liber-
ality with 1is money—gained through
his comma CM with the whisky ring of
Peoria, and his blasphemous lectures—
he allowed ais sister to die in poverty.
The paraphlet is in advance of a book
that is shortly to appear refutingInger-
son lectures. It is a red hot indict-
ment, and. Ingersoll is met on his own
ground of vigorous assertion. If the
allegations are not true — the author
professes to be able to prove every one
of them --they are decidedly libelous.

snatched from them: by inexorable (zed-
itoxs.
Besides, the farmer knows nothing .of
the tyrannical exactions of fashion. No
raatter how small a business' man%
sapital or how prudently he may man-
age his affairs, the requirements of
society and fashion are relentless and
irresistible. No matter how reckless a
man may be in business, or how often
he defrauds his creditors by assignments;
if he and his family keep up all the
show of fashionable life, they are all
right. There is now a man's family
travelling in Europe in great pomp and
style at enormous expense, belonging
to Central 'Iowa, who has made two
assignments in thirty-three months.
Commercial or mercantile life is very
feverish, uncertain and unsatisfactory
business to the man who stands at the
head and bears the responsibility of
success or failure. Fashion, the credit
system and the fluctuations of prices
always keep a business man in hot
water.
Not so, however, with the farmer.
1.1 he attends strictly to business,
keeps out of debt, and pursues an in-
telligent system, he certainly attains to
a proud independence. And when
farniers do fail,, which is [sometimes the
case, the cause is almost certain to be
clearly traced to gross mismanagement,
idleness by visiting too often the neigh-
boring towns, drunkenness, or reckless
speculation in cattle or lands. When
a farmer goes outside of his legitiinate
business, and attempts to make money
rapidly by buying and selling on specu-
lation, he may soon bankrupt. But
this is not farming. It is speculation.
A few by this game succeed, which
generally is a bad and fatal example to
neighbors, who, not possessing the ex-
perience and tact, go dlown in disgrace.
Plain and practical farming, carefully
and wisely pursued, though slow, is the
best, safest and happiest pursuit man
cbal follow. So we beseech our farmer
friends not to look longingly to the
marts of trade for a change of their
pursuits as likely to be easier to body
oe to tax less the utmost capacity of
the mind. It is a fatal delusion', into
which many an honest and indepen-
dent man has ventured to -hits total
ruin.—Iowa State Register.
The Date Palm.
The date palm is cultivated in irin
mouse quantities all over the northern
part of Africa, and more sparingly hi
Western Asia and Southern Europe;
arid, in some of these countries, its
fruit, though only known to us as an
article of luxury, affords the principal
food of a• large portion of the inhabi-
tants, and likewise of the various do-
mestic aininals—horses, dogs, sheep,
-cows and camels being alike partial to
it.
The treeusually grows about sixty or
eighty feet, and lives to a great age,
trees of 100 to 200 years old continuing
prod.nce annual crops of dates.
Numerous varieties are recognized by
the Arabs, and are distinguished by
different names, according to their
shape, size, quality and time of ripening..
The fruit, however, is not the most
valuable part of this eldely dispersed
tree, for, as with the cocoanut tree in
its native country, nearly every part is
applied to some useful purpose. Bags,
mats, conches, brushes, and the lints of
the poorer classes are constructed of
its leaves. The fibre surrounding the
bases .their stalks is used for making
coarse cloths, the stalks themselves
for crates, baskets, brooms, walking
sticks, etc.' and the wood for building
substantialhouses. The heart of young
leaves is eaten as a vegetable. The
tells the following good story, which
may not be without its application in
this country, although the use of the
thermometer in cheese making is far
inore general than a few years ago. The
story goes that some years ago Dr.
Voelcker gave a lecture on cheese mak-
ing to a number of farmers' wives and
dairywomen on the estates of the late
Lord Fitzhardinge. At the close of his
remarks a la4ty said: "What you tel;
as is all very veU,bnt can you make a
cheese ?" "Yes, I think I can," he
answered, "bat at any rate I will try if
I have a fainehance, and see the thing
done from beginning to end. The pro-
duce of a great many cheese, dairies is
spoiled by the cows being milked with
dirty hands, and so forth." "Very -
well," said the doubting cheese maker,
"if you will cisme I will send to the [sta-
tion for you.", .A. date was agreed mon,
and. at half -past five an a cold morning
the farmer's wife sent her trap for the
doctor, who was thee residing in the
neighborhood. ,So he got up and drove
five mites to see the cows milked
. -
When the rennet was about to be put
h elle dipped
, whereupon
in, he asked lir whether the tempera -
tare was rigin her hands and. said, "Yes, I think
• that will do," The doctor,, however,
inserted the Ithermometer, and found
that it was 10 degrees lower than it
ought to be. Hereupon her husband, a
snaook-frocked farmer, who was stand-
ing by, said • "Ah, Sally , I tell you,
you have spoiled man* a cheese for me
by feeling the milk with your hand in-
stead of testing it witli the instrument."
Well, at last a large cheese was made
and marked, and when sold fetched
more money than the good woman had
been in the 114it of getting. After this
nearly all the arraers in the neighbor-
hood presented theimwivesi with a ther-
mometer apiece. _ Possibly somebody
or other will uncharitably say that the
,foregoing tale has been invented for the
occasion, but Dr. VoeIcker assures us
on his word of honor that it is the nar-
ration of the fats as they occurred.

though, to obtain it, the tree is often
destroyed; and, even the hard and ap-
parently useless stones are ground into
food for cattle.
The stem of the tree, which is
straight and simple, reaches a height of
sixty feet, and bears a head of forty to
eighty sea -green, feather -shaped leaves
of eight to ten feet long.
The fruit grows in clusters, and a
tree will bear usually fifteen or twenty
clusters, each weighing fifteen or
twenty pounds. The fruit is eaten
either fresh or dried, and, in the latter
state, becomes an article of commerce.
Generally the fruit may be described
as oblong, somewhat in the shape of an
acorn, but about twice the size, con-
sistirig of a thick, fleshy substance, in-
cluding and freely separating from, an
oblong stone �r kernel, having a furrow
on the one side. Their taste is agree-
ably sweet, accompanied with a alight
astringency.
When the dates are allowed to re-
main oe, the tree till they are quite
ripe, and have become soft and of a
high red color, they are formed, into a
hard, selid paste or cake. This is for-
med by pressing the ripe dates into
large baskets, each containing about
two hundred weight. In this state it
is exported, and in the market it is cut
out of the basket and sold by the
pound. It forms part of the daily
food of all classes of people. In travel-
ling, it is disolved in water, and affords
a sweet and refreshing drink, Cakes of

A liquid resembling wine is made
from dates by fermentation, and also a
kind of vinegar. In Persia an ardent
spirit is distilled from dates. The soft
pith at the summit of th p palm stem,
along with the young leaves not yet un-
folded, is eaten under the name of
palm cabbage. From the central path
of the tree a starch of nutritive proper-
ties is made.

Harvesting Onions.
Onions are generally' pulled in the
Aatter part of August. But the seaaon
has been so late this year that
iaany fields of onions will not be ready
or pulling before the middle of this
onth. When onions have strong tops
and do not 'bottom dowh' very readily,
.i1t is a good plan to break the tops down
by rolling a barrel over the field, After
the' tops are broken they will wilt and
the onions will mature and ripen. The
tops should be well wilted if possible,
hefore the onions are pulled. If the
ground is at all weedy, a good method
Of pulling is to pull six or eight rows,
and throw the onions into a row just
beyond the ground on,whicla they grow.
This ground can then be out over with
a horse cultivator, or what is better, a
- horse implement with a horizontal
knife blade, similar to that of a souffle
hoe, but three or four feet long. When
they have been out up in this way, they
should. be raked into piles. This pre-
vents the weeds from going to seed, and
leaves the ground clean and smooth
ler the next six or eight rows of onions
te be thrown upon. A field of onions
palled in this way is in the best condi-
Vim to manage. The onions in these
rows should be frequently turned care-
fully over with a wooden rake until
they are well dried on both sides. They
should not be hauled from the field un-
til they are quite dry, and only in
bright and sunny weather.
