TOPICS OF PRACTICAL INTEREST TO '

PROGRESSIVE FARMERS.

Recent Developments in Apiaculture That
Prove Beekeepers Are Abreast of the
Times, with Several Important Improve-
ments in )Icthods and Appliances».

Beekeepers are by no means behind
the times, but have important improve-
ments in various directions well worthy
of general attention. Mr. A. I. Root, in
his Bee and Honey Guide for 1891,
briefl'ygiotcs some comparatively recent
developments.

Among these is the bee escape; which
is designed to rid supers of bees. In ex«
tracting it saves the labor of brushing
off the combs before uncapping. For
comb honey the old way of shaking and
smoking bees through the sections may
be dispensed With. Several styles have
been submitted. he Dibbern so far
seems to be as gool as any.

The general utility of perforated zinc
has been recognized. for perhaps ten
years. but all beekeepers do not yet un-
derstand that its great usefulness is in
keeping surplus combs free from brood
in extracting. California beekeepers
are now using it largely, and its use in
connection with the bee escape has very
greatly .»_:. '
ducing rim liquid product.

How 11> pxevent burr combs has been
one of the serious problems._ It is any-
thing but pleasant to lift an upper story
off the lower one when the two are
stuck fast with brace combs, and even
after prying them apart the frames drop
down, honey drips from the several
brace combs, robbers are invited, and
the apiarist and bees are irritated. Dis-
cussions on the subject during the year
1890 called out scores of corroborating
testimony shos 'ing that brace combs can
be obviated by a method briefly summed
as follows: To prevent burr (or brace)
combs use top bars from .3. to «3 of an
inch thick and from 1 to 13,; inches wide,
the same spaced about 13 inches from
center to center. There must also be a
bee space of «1- inch between the upper
and lower set of frames, or between the
latter and supers for comb honey.

Exact spacing is an important factor
in the matter, to get which we must
have fixed distances. It has been con—
tended that fixed distances greatly hin-
der easy and rapid manipulation. That
this is a great mistake is shown in the
apiaries of some of the largest beekeep-
ers in the world. The fixed frames
are handled as rapidly and easily as are
the hanging styles. There are few or no
burr combs, and the combs themselves,
having always been spaced equally dis-
tant, are beautiful and true. The Hoff-
man and the closed end are both largely
used by eastern beekeepers.

Swine for Profit.

The demand for breakfast bacon has
given swine 3. send off they could not
have received from any other source. To
insure character and stability to this
branch of pork eating it was necessary
that the product be sufficiently thick and
especially tender when cooked and
served. These qualities could only be
present in the young improved hog;
hence, from all points of view, early
maturity and tendency to fatten at any
age have proven to be agencies through
which the modern hog has been a source
of profit;

A more important reason than this is
the fact that, with swine suitably bred,
we secure an animal at ten months equal
in weight to the hogs of a few years ago,
when at the age of 20 months or over.
Digestion and assimilation are at their
best in the young, growing hog. This is
an important factor in rendering early
maturity a success. The season is an
equally important factor, for we need
hardly repeat the well understood fact
that the percentage of food required to
produce a given gain in weight must be
materially added to when frost and cold
nights set in. Grass and warm weather
are not usually estimated at their value
in the direction of placing the early litters
in the market before winter.—-Wcstern
Agriculturist.

Cows in Stables.

The following information was given
about the space required for cows con-
fined in stables at one of the Farmers’
institutes: Three feet and a half. My
cows are given that much room, and are
fastened by swing stanchions. The gut<
ter has a slat-ted cover, and charcoal dust
and land plaster are used as absorbents
and disinfectants, keeping the stables
sweet and clean. Jersey and Guernsey
cows do not need more than three feet
six inches in length in the stalls if the
gutter has a slatted cover and the cows
are fastened with swing stanchions.
Holsteins or other large cows will need
a. space a. few inches longer.

Feeding Poultry in Cold \Veather.

Fowls are omnivorous in their natural
state and require some portion of ani-
mal food. On a. wide range in summer
they will provide this for themselves,
but when in confinement, and especially
during cold weather,laying hens require
to be fed at least twice a. week meat in-
some form. When the flock is small the
scraps from the table and kitchen may
suffice, but if the number be large it will
pay to buy livers and lights, cracklings
and other refuse from the butchers. It
is not required in large quantifies, but a
little meat boiled, chopped fine and
mixed in. their food is a necessity when
eggs are expected.

Restart-1h" Grass Lands}:

Many pieces of grassland cannot be
plowed, and have become sod bound and
unproductive. In this condition they do
not furnish the material for their own
restoration. Some outside help must be
given, and if the field has been long cut
for hay mineral mauures are probably
needed, together with‘nitrate of soda, as
the grass begins to start. There is less
chance of waste of nitrate of soda ap-
plied any time on grass than with culti-
vatedcrops, as grass will grow wherever
it is applied, wherever water runs, even
fr? melting snows—American Culti—
va r.

THE DRESSED BEEF INDUSTRY.
Are Dressed Beef Men Totterlug on the
Verge of Bankruptcy?

The-business year of the house of Ar-
mour & Co.. Chicago, closed on Oct. 1,
and the exhibit which this firm presents
for the past year is interesting for the
magnitude-0f its operations. The total
distributive sales were $65,003,000. The
extent of the beef production of the
house is stupendous. They slaughtered
650,000 cattle during the year and also
350,000 sheep. The gross weight of these
animals was approximately 575,000 tons,
equivalent to an average exceeding 150
carloads of dressed beef for each busi-
ness day of the year.

The pay roll amounted to $3,500,000,
and allowing an average price for the
beef and mutton bought (better than the
market has been) this expenditure for
cattle would amount to about $43,000,-
000, which, taken with the cost of la-
bor, would still leave the Armours’ sur-
plus on the year’s business $22,000,000.
These figures are all rather large to
grasp, but still one can easily see that
on all the beevcs bought, with labor
added in, there is still a margin of a 50
per cent. advance on cattle bought for
slaughter, so that'thc evidence adduced
by the senatorial committee which in.
vestigatcd the beef combine goes for
naught. The dressed beef men, it will
be remembered, then claimed a profit of
from $1 to $1.50 on each head.

The Armours’ annual statement shows
that, for example, a thirty dollar steer
after being paid for, and the labor of con-
verting him into dressed beef, glue, fer-
tilizer and other products is also paid
for, the dressed beef man yet has an ad-
vance of $15 when his product is sold.
There is never any trouble about dispos-
ing of dressed beef products, so that the
sales are as Sure as the existence of the

dressed beef to sell, and thus on each

steer bought the dressed beef man, after
the cost of converting into dressed beef
has been paid, reaps an advance of $15
upon the amount invested.

The dressed beef industry is not in
such~a tottering condition as the dressed
beef men would have the country believe
if this belief is to be based upon the
work of the Vest senatorial committee.
——Stock Growers’ Journal.

Sbying Horses.

The way to ascertain the seeing pow-
ers of a horse is to aim a. blow at the
head when standing before him. It will
be observed he will have some difiiculty
in warding it and of judging of the dis-
tance it is from him. - Not so when you
stand at his side. Shying is caused in
most instances by imperfect vision, al-
though the generality of horsemen be-
lieve it is a. trick or habit acquired from
idleness, and they refer‘it to playfulness,
skittishness, etc.

I am forced to believe from much
practical experience among young horses,
as well as those more advanced in years,
that in nineteen cases out of twenty the
visual organ hasnot the power of per-
ceiving things aright. There are sev-
eral causes in operation to produce shy~
mg.

I have known many horses with nar-
row and flat foreheads, possessing small,
ill shaped eyes, desperate and dangerous
shyers. The shape of the cornea has
not been convex, but I have found it
more prominent at one part than at an-
other. They are what I have termed
them—“angularly convex.” I have no
ticed a similarly shaped eye in the ho-
vine race. I dare say many persons have
noticed that cows when driven along
the street shy a good deal, which may
be accounted for by the fact that tin-y
meet with objects they are unused to.
and being excited» their vision is less per-
fect than when they are. in a tranquil
state. -

The horses with ill shaped eyes and
foreheads are the worst shyers I have
ever met with. T hey generally shy at
water marks in the road, especially after
dark. There are eyes which are prom—
inent, and horses with such as these are
nearsighted; there are others with flat
eyes, although said to be so from old
age. I do not find these animals shy as
they grow old, but the reverse. I think,
as a general rule, if an eye is perfect in
youth and up to eight or twelve years old,
the possessor thereof will not be found
to become a shyer, as these animals are
not often found so old as to have im-
paired vision.

I have known hundreds of old horses
that have not shied in their old age. The
shaped forehead to which allusion was
made has been found to exist in nervous
and ill tempered horses—Horseman.

Points of Interest. '

Palace chicken cars are the newest
thing out. Tens of thousands of fowls
have this fall been shipped in them from
the west, eastward and elsewhere. The
cars of one live poultry transportation
company contain 3,500 chickens each.
Upon the car roofs are tanks of water
holding 750 gallons each, from which
water is let down introugbs to the fowls
in the car. There is some humanity in
this method of shipment, and the fowls
arrive at their destination tender and
juicy, if they have not already been re—
duced to India rubber in the start by
some defective incubator process.

For some reason there was unusual
shrinkage in the fleeces of western wool
the past season. The fleeces contained
more than the ordinary quantity of gum,
grease and sand, eastern buyers‘said.

Two thousand fivehundred dollars is
a. good price‘to, pay for a jack, yet there
are some in Anierica. that have been sold
forthat price. , ~‘ ' ' ' ‘= .

" In the cattle sales at Chicago «and 'els

where during the season one fact stood
out prominent: ' Prime fat cattle were in
good demand, went 0E briskly and
brought good prices, while poor cattle
glutted the market and could hardly be
worked off at any price at times. It is
a. fact for the beef raisers to ponder.
There is no reason why America should
not produce as prime beef and mutton
as Great Britain does. We have not

done so as yet, except in a few isolated ,

cases. But care and breeding will work
miracles Md make American beef equal
to any. Care and breeding are the
words.

 

the question.

 

WHAT MISS SPINSTER SAYS:

That the Over River school enter-
tainment will be very attractive to all
lovers of beautiful children.

That Mrs. Delos Culver is confined
to her room at the Norwalk Hotel with
a sprained ankle.

That Mrs. Thomas, of New York is
visiting her sister, Miss Hoyt, on Main
street.

That Mrs. Mott’s health is much im-
proved since her arrival at Cleveland.

That talking to the average girl to
whom everything is “awfully sweet,”
or “simply dreadful,” and whose terms
for joy or grief, assent or denial, can
be predicted. That a great deal might
be accomplished with little effort to
enable the girls to add a few words to
their vocabularies. The English lan-
guage, made up as it is of words de-
rived from theprincipal languages of
the world, holds immense possibilities
for the student.

That the dear little cheats of girls
have ferreted out a way of getting
ahead of the fashions. It is the season
for skirts with little material in them,
and no apparent clot-hing under them.
The girls are well aware of this and
they also know that none of the pretty
berufiied superfiuities of former years
can be worn underneath these tailor
made gowns. Yet one and all have de-
clared that they cannot and will not go
unpetticoated. Fancy the horror of
seeing a- woman cross a street without
revealing as much as a fiufl‘ of muslin
or a frou-frou of lace I T’was out of
The whole condition of
womanhood seemed at stake. Then
someone, (all honor be upon her.)
thought of a way out of the dllemma, a
way .of appearing to wear pet-ticoats
without wearing them at all. Inside of
her tailor made gown, she sewed a
flounce of lace, which was long enough
to reach to the hem ofthe skirt. There
was the dress skirt beautifully elevated
at just the right angle and hanging be-
low it were the lace skirts in charming
fold and pose. Now all the girls are
doing that sort of thing, and no one
knows just how it happens that there is
apparently no petticoat the «a, and yet
there must be one, for now you see it
and now you don’t, which fact goes to
demonstrate once more that you should
believe only half what you see.

First Baptist Church.

In accord with Baptist usage, a coun-
cil of the Fairfield county Baptist
churches was held with the First Rap-
tist. church Monday afternoon for the
purpose of examining Rev. F. E. Rob-
bins, the pastor-elect of that church, as
to his qualifications for the office of
Minister. Rev. Dr. Hubbard of Dan-
bury was chosen 'Moderator and Rev.
J W Richardson of Stamford, Clerk.
Mr. Robbins’ views upon Christian
doctrine and Church policy proving
entirely satisfactory to the Council, be
was unanimously recommended to the
Norwalk church for ordination, and
Wednesday evening, June 8d, was ap-
pointed as the time. At th1s ceremony,
which is one marked by beauty and im-
pressiveness, the Rev. J. \V. Richard-
son, of_.Stamford, will preach the ser-
mon; Rev. W. P.Elsdon of Waterbury,
give the charge to the candidate; Rev.
A. Wheaton, . of South Norwalk, the-
hand of fellowship; Dr. Hubbard, of
Danbury, the charge to the church;
Rev. Robert McGonegal, D. D., of this
town, the ordaining prayer. The out-
look at this church is very promising;
the Society _is united, the membership
increasing, several candidates are
awaiting baptiSm. and a progressive
spirit of . active, helpful, practical
Christianity pervades the church.

Pinafore.
NEW HAVEN, May 25, 1891.
To THE EDITOR or _DAILx Gazsrrnz—

My primitive object in givmg local
entertainments, was to encourage and
improve local home talent, _and seeing
the good material of which it was com-
posed, and the success that crowned
my efforts. gave me the first concep—
tion to utilize such talent andw1th that
end in view I determined _to go still
further and decided to revive the old
and ever popular opera H. M. S. “Pin-
afore,” which was produced_w1th 1m-
mense success at the Hyperion Thea—
tre. New Haven, Bunnell Theatre,
Bridgeport and Hartford. .

The fame of this fine production
spread to other cities and I was urgent-
ly requested to give a performance in
Norwalk, my friends assuring me that
a hearty reception awaited myself and
company in Norwalk.

With these flattering assurances com-
ing from all sides I have determined to
bring H. M. S. “Pinafore” to South
Norwalk, on Tuesday, June 2d.

JUSTINE IXGERSOLL.

Miss Ingersoll the enterprising pro-
moter of the rare entertainment is of
Norwalk pedigree, and her forefather
sleeps beneath a slate slab a few feet
from the west door of St.Paul’s church.
Her grandfather the Hon. Ralph Isaacs
Ingersoll. formerly United States Min-
ister to Russia,was a grandson of Ralph
Isaacs Jr., son of Ralph Isaacs Sn, the
sleeper abovereferred to. who was the
earliest warden of St. Paul‘s parish,
and who brought up his family in the
close vicinity of what has for so many
years been the home of thelate lament-
ed Mrs. James A. Hoyt, ofEast-avenue.

Ralph Isaacs Jr., the grandparent of
Hon. Ralph Isaacs Ingersoll. and con-
sequently a foreparent of Miss Justine
Ingersoll, removed from Norwalk to
the handsome Cherry Hill property in
Branford. Conn. and now owned by
Mr. John W. Nichols and the residence
of the widow of Colonel Henry Allen
of the 17th Conn. Vols. whose dust lies
in Union cemetery. At Cherry Hill
Mr. Ingersoll rounded out a long life
and now lies under the chancel of the
Branford parish church. Miss Inger-
soll is also, through her mother, Vir—
ginia Gregory, a. granddaughter of one
of Norwalk’s most illustrious sons, the
late Commodore Francis H. Gregory
of the U. S. Navy; while her affinity is
still further notable in that it includes
that of the old Knic :erbocker Vanden-

Good News, if True, for Democrats.
t is rumored that the Connecticut
Supreme Court, in a Branford contested
election case. has decided that certain
so-called “for ballots,” similar to those
which played so prominent a part in
the recent elect-ion. are irregular and
illegal. The decision will not be filed
until next week. If the. report be cor-
rect the decision practically decides the
state election dispute in favor ofthe
democrats.
