STORAGE CRATES.
Convenient Arrangement by Which
Comb Honey Can Be Safely
Kept in Small Space.
The engraving shows a pile of stor
age crates filled with sections except
the top one, which is empty, the bet
ter to show the construction. The
engraving is a little faulty in that the
tops of the sections in the filled crate
, nearest the top do not show as they
should, through the open bottoms of
the empty crate. These crates are

point where a mistake is likely to be
made being the making of them of un
seasoned lumber, so that the side
pieces, when they shrink, are less than I
the height of the section. I pile these j
crates up, even when full of honey, as j
high as I can reach; and it is neces
sary that this weight should not come j
directly on the sections. In piling up:
sections that are to stay any length
of time in the crates, always lay a;
piece of paper over each one. which
makes it practically dust-proof, es
pecially if the paper is long enough to ‘
extend down over the ends of the
crates.
Pile your honey in a hot, dry place,
cautions the editor of Gleanings in
Bee Culture. If there is any sns- j
picion of coolness or dampness about |
it, do not put the honey near the floor I
or in a corner. Have it at least a foot
from the floor, and where the air can
circulate freely all around it.
EFFECTIVE DUST BATH.
Clean Dust Mixed with Fine Ashes
and Sulphur Enjoyed by
Kens.
As to mites. I do not believe that I
have any in my houses, says a New
Jersey poultryman. I use preventa
tive remedies, spraying the houses and
painting underside of roosts and roost
rests with crude carbolic solution, also
fumigating with sulphur and white
washing, using the sulphur once a
month and whitewashing about four
times a year. The above 1 have found
sufficient for my purpose. I believe
the mites are very difficult to get rid
of once they get a foothold in a house,
and a house infested with them will
need very thorough cleaning and
spraying, being very particular to get
the spray Into all cracks and crevices
As to chicken lice. I keep the houses
supplied with dust baths, using clean
dust mixed with fine ashes and sul
phur. \\ hen I had a small number of
fowls, it was an easy matter to in
spect each individual, and dust them
with insect powder, but this involves
entirely too much labor where a large
number of fowls ar<- kept; so now I
rely on dust baths mixed as above I
am not aware that I have ever lest
any poultry from hce or mites and
believe if the above plan is faithfu31v j
followed the trouble will be reduced
to a minimum.—Farmer’s Review
GOOD SHELL MATERIAL.
Where Production of Eggs Is Large
Much Lime Must Be Pro
vided.
A great many of our people forget
that the modern hen produces several
times as many eggs as the ancient
hen that was the progenitor of the
one we now hare. i hat ben laid
.’i0 or 40 eggs a year and had no trou
ble to find the lime in the natural
food. But it is a very different mat
ter when a domes' ic fowl must pro
duce good shell material oat of her
food for two htHidre i eggs during the
year. The modem hen probably eats
no more lime in her food; therefore

TESTING EGGS.
▲ Dark Room and a Candle All That
Is Needed to Determine
Fertility.
Eggs are never so fertile in winter
as in the warm weather, and all should
be tested on the eighth day. A piece
[ of cardboard, with a hole cut out in
which to fit the egg, is usually em
ployed to assist the tester, and this is
[ certainly an aid, but by encircling the
egg between the forefinger and thumb
we shut the light out all around it,
and thus obtain the same result. Eggs
should be tested in a dark room by the
aid of a candle or lamp, says the Cul
tivator. Hold the egg up against the
light, and it will be more or less trans
parent, according as to whether it is
dark or white-shelled. Then, if the
egg is fertile, looking closely a dark
spot will be seen floating inside the
shell. This is the germ which has
awakened to life and is growing. By
the eighth day it is quite indiscernible,
but if the light is good and the op
erator experienced fertile and unfer
tile can be separated about the fourth
day, though the eighth is quite soon
enough for the average poultry-keeper.
Dark brown shelled are more difficult
to test than white, owing to the shell
being more opaque. If any are doubt
1 fill, put them back and test again the
following night. It is well to have a
fresh egg to compare with the tested
eggs, if doubtful about the latter, the
difference between fertile and unfer
tile shows them up more clearly. Be
careful the eggs do not get chilled if
tested on a cold night. If there are
many eggs to test it will pay to have
on" of the very quick and convenient
testers sold by the incubator and
poultry supply-houses.
A COMPARTMENT COOP.
Raising of Chickens Simplified by
Dividing House Into Sections
with Laths.
I raised all my chicks in coops about
4x4 feet and separated into four com
partments by lathes, writes a corre
spondent of Farm and Home. A space
of about, three inches from lowest lath
to floor of the coop allows chicks to

run from one compartment to the oth
er. I put three hens in these coops,
leaving the fourth compartment open
to feed chicks. Here they can eat
without being trampled upon or rob
bed by the hens.
These large coops have shingled
roofs and are rain-proof. They have
doors which are separate, and the
coops are tipped up and the floors
cleaned frequently. They easily ac
commodate 100 chicks until they are
ready for market and I consider them
the best that I have ever used.
BEES AND POULTRY.
Time to think about water-glass
eggs.
They say that bee-keepers should
organize.
Breed your queens to suit your de
mand for honey-gatherers.
There are bee-keepers who keep
bees, and then there are real bee-keep
ers.
Mites are very destructive and mul
tiply with astonishing rapidity. Look
for them often.
Scrub bees, scrub bee-keeping, and
scrub bee-keepers are usually found at
the same place.
Catch the infection of cleanly prac
tice in the poultry yard and the hens
will catch it too.

fowls at good prices. !
It is the good queen and the good
management that work to the best ad
vantage in an apiary.
Not the breed, not the feed, not the
house, not the yard, not anything
counts more than the man in poultry
raising as a business.
Cleanliness a Factor.
The cleaner the poultry establish
ment is kept the more certainly will
the business pay a profit. Dirt is the
harborer of both disease germs and of
j mites. It is with fowls as with the
man beings. Dirt and squallor are the
handmaidens r f diesase and death. 1
Many a poultry enterprise has failed
i just because the owner did not keep
everything clean.
Not Too Much Gtease.
Grease is death to lice, hut do not
use too much of it on the chicks. Their
skin is tender and the grease is pow
erful stuff. Chicks two or three days
old are often killed by an overdose of
grease applied to their bodies. This
is one case where it is possible to get
i too much of a good thing.
Moisture Essential.
Moisture is e -< ntial to make a pood
hatch. The air in damp weather sup
plies enough: in <Jry weather the floor
may be sprinkled or wet sheets hung
up after the fou - enth day. Too mu< h
moisture is worse than none.

Keep
Your Nerve
It is nerve energy that runs
the organs of your body. The
storage battery is the nerve
cells in the brain and spina!
cord, and from this battery
nerve force is sent out through
the system of nerves. To keep
the body healthy you must
have plenty of nerve force; if
you have not, the organs work
nr:perfectly, the circulation is
sluggish, digestion bad, appe
tite poor, kidneys inactive, and
aches, pains and misery are
the penalty.
You can keep the system
strong with Dr. Miles' Nervine.
It assists in generating nerve
energy; it strengthens the
nerves and makes the whole
system strong and vigorous.
