And this was Mrs. Chattergsbh's “line or two:â€"â€" ‘ "Dear Dcctorâ€"Agreesble to my prom- ise of yesterday. I write to let you know how our dear little Percy is, and how he has been since you were here yesterday. I hardly know exactly what to write. In some respects I think the child is better, but I don t know that be is in others. ‘ Still, 1 think I am safe in saying that there has been some general improve- ment But please do not misundrrstand me when i write this.

His pulse seems to be about : normal. but I am of such nsensitive, nervous temperament, and my nerves3 have been unstrnng by anxiety regarding him, that I may not have been able to count the pulse accurately. oouut right, knowing, of course, how important it was that I should do so. “I have tried to take his temperature several times with one of those tempera- ture thermometers, but I'm not sure that >_ it worked right. I did the best I could, but sometimes the temperature was four degrees above normal. and sometimes also degrees below. But I’m afraid the thermometer failed to work right. “He drinks a good deal, which, I pre- sume, indicates some inward fever, al~ ' though my husband says that is not al- ways the case when one is thirsty. You probably know best about that. “He was slightly restless in his sleep, but he never lies quiet. and always rolls and tosses about a good deal in his sleep. I have always attributed this to his un- usual brain development, and have often thought of speaking to you about it. He is undoubtedly a child in whom the in- tellectual predominates over his physical, and I feel and realize how careful Imust be with him. “I fear this tendency will render him peculiarly susceptible to disease, particu- larly to those of the nervous system. He is not an ordinary child, as you must have observed, and I often fear that his phenomenal intellectuallty pressgos a short life; but my husband says I am foolish to worry so.

One Way of Carrying Bre~ into the Cell" â€"Plnclnz the Hives. The time for putting boas into the cellar varies of course with the locality Whenever it turns cold, with a fair prospect of a continuance, T open up the b-jllll.‘ and proceed to action. Better directions cinnot be oflercd than the following plan, which the well~ known authority, A. 1. Root. describes : in his A. B. C. of Bee Culture. He says: First with a screwdriver or cold chisel we go around to each hive. pull a little smoke in at the entrance and pry the body loose from the bottom board, as it will always be stuck down with prcpclis. It may yield with a little ARRANGEMENT Ol“ IIIVES IN THE CELLAR. snap, and it will be necessary to use a little smoke to make the bees behave. The bottom boards all loosened, with an assistant and a couple of hive carrier's we proceed to carry the bees intothe cellar. It is to be observed that our hive car. riers are simply a couple of lengths of wire bent in the shape of a letter V on ordinary wooden pull handle being slip? psd through to the middle of the wire. Both ends are bent down in the shape shown in the out in the enlarged view. The ends are then bent in the form of a book so as to catch on the bottom board. Now, then, to pick up the hives and carry them into the cellar we lift the front end of the bottom board up a little and slip the books of the hive carrier under. In like manner we catch the rear end of the bottom board, when the hive is picked up as shown in the out, bottom board and all. We then proceed to the cellar and deposit the hive near the place where it is supposed to stay through the winter Along on two sides of the cellar we have previously laid scantliug, say 14 or 15‘ inches 'apart. de- pending of course upon the length of the hive. We then pick the hive just brought in up by the hand holes, lift it of! its bottom and lay it at one end on top of the scuntling and lay the bottom board in one corner of the cellar. In like man- ner we bring in another colony, lift it oflf the bottom board and deposit is by the side of the other colony, leaving four inches between and so on. We bring in other colonies until the scantlings are covered rich hives four inches apart. We are now ready to commence another tier on top. The next hive that is brought is piled on top of two others in such a way that the bottom covers the space between two hives below. and so on we pile the rows of hives. The next tier is followed up in the same manner until We have three or more tiers high, each hive placed over the intervening space between the two below. . The reason for this manner of piling up the hives is convenience in the first place. and in the second place to give ample ventilation. You will now see an additional reason for leaving the cover on. If we removed the cover, we could not pile the hives one upon the other so well. Remedy for I.‘ w: Cholera. We have tried successfully the recipe sent out by the Government abouta year ago. It is as follows: Wood charcoal. one pound; sulphur, one pound; sedium chloride, two pounds; sodium bicarbon- ate, two pounds; sodium hypophosphlte. two pounds: sodium suiphnte,ons pound, and antimony sulphate, one pound All these should be thoroughly pulverised and well mixed. The usual dose is a large tablespoonnt to every 900 pounds of hog. Besides being a remedy, it is used as a preventive. To insure suc- cessful treatment. you should provide dry and comfortable quarters for your hogs. The dose above named should be given only once each day. The report re- commends the rigid quarantlning of new- ly bought hogs. and the prevention of their joining those already on the form, for at least six weenâ€"«l. W.

Vvhers they are plentiful and cheap, on sweet apples are almost sure to be when the crop is abundant, they are good food for hogs. But they are not a full ration, and should always be fed cooked and mixed with some kind 0: grain or meal, which should be put in while the cooked srples are hot. and thus cooked with them. The apples make the grain much more digestible than it would be without them.
