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. The method

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

vegetable growth, great luxurlanc

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

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.

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,'. The excuse for him is, that
he never ate oat-meal prepared after
the above recipe.

CHIEF JUsrIoE MANsFIELD, probably
with a view to prolong his own days,
was always anxious, when old -wit
nesses were in court, to know their
customary habits of life. It so hap
pened that two very old men named
Elm were one day the objects of his
inquiry.
"You are a very old man," said his
Lordship to the elder brother. "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.
"When 1 could get nothing else, my
Lord," was the reply. ''I always
took my glass with my friends."
"Well, then," replied his Lordship,
"all we can say is 'an Elm will floar

$An 'morning, glad to see you,
Aiuttle," said his best friend. "Mov
ing this Spring?"
",No, not this Spr-"
"Now, see here. Every man I've
met for the last two weeks has been
stuffing that sort of thing down me.
I'm tired of it. I want to know if you
are moving this spring? that's what I
want to know."
"No not this Spring-"
But he got no further. His friend
knocked him clean over the gutter and
muttered as he walked off. "Lie there,
blast ye. You don't come any some
other Spring on me;" and al that
Shuttle wanted to say was that he
didn't intend to move this Spring.

they merely adopt a motto, and stick
to it.

A Poon old rheumatic lady said to
her physician: "Oh, doctor, doctor, I

"You John Wesley, if you don't
