A caerma~ti ue. ae tJnlike the wild 11bumble-bee; as it , commonly cAllbd, the honey-bee is got an origiblal natiVe of this country Its ancestors bame over with the P11 grim *Oathei's from lngland or Holland and yea' by year their descendanta rollowed the course of civilization w eatward. Restless swarms escaping from the farmers' hives, and failing to respond to the seductive music of tongs and tin pans with which the frantic owners tried to recover them, the fugi tives took to the woods and formed in dependent colonies in the cavities of decaying trees. These colonies in turn sent out new swarms every year, and peopled the forests with wild bees that gradually lost all recollection of the hives of civilization. They were called by the Indians "the white man's fly." There wore no wild honey-bees west of the Mississippl river previous to 1797, and they did not make their way to the 'acifle coast until more than half a century liter, when hives of bees were'carried thither by settlers. Then the old story was repeated. Fugi tive swarms from the hives escaped Into the forests, and wild bees soon became abundant, juat as they had spread through the forests of longer settled portions of the country. The method of hunting wild bees in California is the same as in our West ern and Southern States. In India, Africa and the Indian islands the bee hunter has a serviceable friend and partner in the bird called "the honey guide," a member of the cuckoo faml ly, by which he Is unerringly guided to the tree where the wild bees build their nest. The American bee-hunter is compelled to resort to other methods. lie carries with him into the woods i box containing a small. portion of honey, and perhaps some mints or es sences which are attractive to bees. le waits patiently until the bees col lect about the box, and when they have gorged themselves with the se. ductive sweets, watches them keenly as they rise circling in the air. Ak soon as a bee sees some familiar land mark it makes a straight line througli the air for home, and the line of fligh Is carefully noted by the hunter. Wher several bees have 1I0 wn away in thI sane direction the hunter removes hit box to another spot, and the sami operation is repeated; and the inter section of the lines of flight gives hini very nearly tie position of the tree i1 which the wild bees have built thol nest. The hunter now proceeds to And tin spot. ills hopes may be dooned to dis appointment, for the tree may hold i new swarm, and the store of hon3e may be very hmall. But if the trei should chance to be the abode of at old colony, his venture may be re warded by a booty of many hundret poundt of wax and honey. After thi tree has been cut down, or the liml containing the nest has been sawet off, the bees are driven out by burn Ig straw or grass, and the rich spol is then removed. If the hunter wishe to remove the whole bee colony to hm farm or ranch, lie wvili carefully clos the openings throngh wvmhih thr boo p~ass in and out, and transfer the imlu to is apiary, where the bees may b drumimed into hives coiitaining hone: and brood comb. They seen becomn accustomed to their new quarters, ani resume the habit of storing no, hone: for their owner. .Bee culture has bocome an import ant branch of iudustry in Camfornini especially since the imntroductioth of th Italian bee, which has been foundi t p~roducie a honey much sup~erior to thas of the common species.

AGRICULTURE. RAIsING CALVX.-Producers of mi'l for the market usually kill thei calves when one or two days old, oi sell them to the butcher for a dollai or two at the age of four or live days unless they are of superior breeding and promise well in the dairy line. As a consequence of this practice It is rare that we ind veal suitable fo: the table. Now and then a farme keeps up the o)d practice, gives hi: calves one-liplf the milk of their dams and keeps them until they are s: weeks old. Such a calf may have eat en four quarts a milk a day for tht whole time, at a cost of half a dozei dollars, a sum larger than can be real. ized from its sale. There is a practice adopted by man) farmers that will insure good yea calves at an economical price. It ii to takb them from the cow at a very early age-one or two diys--teaci them by an hour's practi.. how t( drink milk from a vessel, giving then first the cow's milk warm from the pall, then changing it gradually by the use of skimmied milk1 to which is added shorts or other nutritious food until all skimmed milk is used. in this way good calves are grown, an# at the ago of six weeks sold to the but. cher at a pront. Calves to be reared for stock oi dairy purposes usually require tht entire milic of' the dams, and oftet that of two cows apiece. Bnt for or dinary purposes these calves may be raiseu on skimmod milk, and even Oil sour or loppored milk very successfullv. In these days when to succeed or the farm requires pe rsistent economy it is well to put the practice to ti test, with the hope of making a say ing in one branch of farimig. Tnz PROPORTION OFI WATICI I% Roors.-Onc Of the simplest items iI the chemistry of a root crop Is the amount of water it contains; it is point, b -ever, of great practical im portance. It is not the gross weigh of roots that benefits either the farme or his cattle; It is the amount of solik matter which determines the value o the crop. This is always to be born in mind in judging of the merits of th4 new varloties continually offered to th public. A "heavy cropper'' may be s merely because its roots are mor watery than those of oilier varieties Agricultural and horticultural socletie in giving prires for new roots, should make the percentage of solid matte in the root an Important element i their decisions. The average amount of dry matter in our various roe crops is as follows: Turnips, 8 to I per cont; carrots 12 to 14; and wel ripened sugf.r beets, 16 to 18 per cent It is a necessity with farmers to rais large.roots, if lie wishes to obtain heavy crop; but it should bo recollee ted that an excessivelv large root I always of inferior quality. In al vegetable growth, great luxurlanc and rapidity of formation is associate with a more watery, saline and nitrc genous composition.

POAcIESD EGGS AND SPINAOU.-Fill a shallow saucepan with water and malt QUantum stiff.; add a little vinegar and sopse leaves of parsley. When the water Is on the point of boiling (it should never be allowed to boil), break two or more eggs Into It, according to the size of the pan, and put on the cover. When done, take them out carefully, brush thelm clean on both sides with a paste brush, and out each egg with a round fluted p'Iste cutter, so as to get thei of a uniform shape. Serve on a puree made as follows: Pick and wash perfectly clean two pounds or three pounds of spinach, put it into a saucepan with a little water and let it boil till quite done; turn It out on a hair sleve to drain; squeeze the.water, out, and pass the spinach throagh the sieve. Put a good lump of butter Into a saucepan, fry it a light brown, add a pinch of flour, mix well, put in the spinach, pepper and salt to taste, and a little milk; th' well; .dispose the spinach on a dish, laying the poached eggs on top of it, and a border of fried sippets round it.. OnAJIA IIRHAD.-Boii a pint of milk and thicken with Graham flour; then add cold milk enough to make the whole as thin as batter. As soon as cool enough not to scald, add half a teiaoupful of hop yeast and set in a warm place to rise when light put in a little salt and a half teacupful cf syrup-or sweeten to taste-and as much Graham tlour as can be stirred in with a spoon. Sprinkle a little fine flour on the dough boards, and mould the brown bread until it works clear from the broad and hands, being care ful not to get it too stiff and dry. Put it into a round basin(that will fit niet ly in your steamer) and return to the warm place to rise, When light enough to bake put it into the steamer over beiling water and let it cook an hour: then bake twenty minutes in the oven. Do not open the steamer while the bread is cooking or the bread will be heavy. OAT MzAr..-One cup and a half of oat-nieal for twelve persons; cover with a pint ot cold water; stir around and drain off the black specks; then put in two quarts of cold water and boil it very slowly from forty--ilve minutes to an hour, often stirring it; while bolling add salt and sugar ; cat it with scalded milk or otherwise, ac r cording to your taste. Dr. Johnson, who hated everything Scotch and never missed an opportunity to ex press his prejudice In his dictionary, thus defined "O.tts:" "In England food for horses, in Scotland food for mOn,'.

"I sup pose you have lived a very temperate life?" "Never drank anything but water, my Lord," said Elm. "Nor you either, I suppose?" said the Judge, addressing himself to the younger.
