your papUPlHi the subject oi
nnd I thought I would give my
views on apiculture in this county
Apiculture in this county, has not
developed sufficiently well to make
it interesting, the old native black
bee in log gums hid in some remote
corner where the children will not
get stung is the plan in this county,
and the result is a small portion of
black comb honey with young bees
polen (or beejbread) as it is termed
once a year, and no more attention
given to the bees until next spring.
I have made apiculture “a study
for ten or fifteen years and I find
by the propor attention the busi-
siness of raising honey in this
county can be made profitable. I
began 4 years ago to improve my
stock of bees and every year until
this has been poor. I first bought
some Italian queens and supperce-
ced the blacks and now I have 75
colonies of fine Italian bees and
have sold a great many and each
year they have paid all expenses,
and gave me what honey I wanted
for home consumption. This sea
son I have taken 80 pounds of hon
ey from several colonies each, and
I think they will fill up again and
then have plenty to winter upon.—
The colonies that have given me
the best yield have not swarmed.
I took the other day 32 pounds of as
nice honey, as I ever saw, from a
swarm, the swarm having been in
gum onlj^j weeks.
Every farmer ought to have 8 or
10 gums. They will give him but lit
tle trouble and furnish him as much
honey as his family can consume,
and there is nothing more
wholesome than pure honey. To be
successful in raising bees the first
thing is to have a good movable
frame hive, some manual on bee
culture, Cook’s is a good one, a
weekly bee journal, none better
than the American Bee Journal, a
good extractor, then have a taste
for working with bees and success
awaits him. My business will not
admit of my giving the attention to
my bees necessary to making it a
paying business. Bees come as near
working for nothing and boarding
themselves as anythiug, but they
are like everything else, require at
tention and that at the proper time.
I think a convention on the sci
ence of apiculture in this county,
would do good. Who is in favor of
the movement? Any person hav
ing a taste for physiology would be
pleased with beeology. Any busi
ness in this country well looked af
ter will pay, and on the other hand
no business let run itself will pay.

A farmer who has tried the

applying liberally to young orch

A British medical journal says
that cows drink filthy water for
its saline taste, and proposes an an
tidote in the shape of rocksalt,
kept always in reach of the cows.
Among the other remedies for
lice on live stock which are going
the rounds of the press, it is claimed
that the water in which potatoes
have been boiled is quite efficacious.
A remedy for balky horses,
which works well, i s to put a small
stone or sand in the horse’s ears.
Generally the horse will start off at
once at a lively gait, unless he
balks from fatigue.
It is a good plan to make a thor
ough cleaning-out of corn cribs and
granaries at least once a year, in
order to get rid of rats and mice.
If every vestige is removed the new
crop will suffer less than by usual
careless method. Wheat kept for
years in granaries is liabie to be in
fested by the weevil, which is ver-
y destructive.

Sleep.
Hall’s Journal of Health wisely say
that the intellectual and moral con
nections of sleeping have not been
sufficiently appreciated. Men and
boys have been praised for “burn
ing the midnight oil” is a delusion
and snare. The student who is fast
asleep at eleven o’clock every night,
and wide awake at seven o’clock
o’clock every morning is going
to surpass another student of the
same intellectual ability, who goes
to bed after twelve and rises before
five. In sleep, the plate on which
the picture is to be taken is receiv
ing its chemical preparation; and
it is plain that which is the best pre
pared will take the best picture.
Men who are the fastest asleep
when they are asleep are the wip-
est awake when they are awake.

Frightful Nasal Catarrh,
PIECES OF BONE.
For four years I have been afflicted with
a very troublesome catarrh of the head
So terrible has its nature been that when
I blew my nose small pieces of bones
would frequently come out of my mouth
and nose. The discharge wasjcopious and
at times exceedingly offensive. My blood
became so impure that my general health
was greatly impaired, with poor appetite
and worse digestion
Numerous medicines were used without
relief, until I began the use of B. B. B.,
and three bottles acted almost like magic.
Since their use not a symptom has returned
and I feel in every way quite restored to
health. I am an old citizen of Atlanta, and
refer to almost any one living on Butler
street, and more particularly to Dr. L, M.
Gillam, who knows of my case.

Opossum Farm Down South
Thomas Chancey has started a
novel business in Hawkinsville.
He has gone into the ’possum busi
ness on an extensive scale and pro
poses to raise the much sought
varmints for the market. His
ranch is located about a mile from
town and is enclosed with wire
fencing. This was done in order
to keep Calvin Brown from trail
ing them off into the swamp with
his pack of hounds. He has com
menced with ten, but will greatly
increase the'number this year. As
the average piney woods ’possum
finds ready sale at forty cents apiece
a fine, fat, stall fed possum would,
of coarse, bring double that amount
and 500 at 80 cents apiece would
amount to $400, which is nothing
to be laughed at.

TiaHE SUIN'.
NEW YORK, 1884.
About sixty million copies of The Sup
have gone out of our establishment
during the past twelve months.
If you were to paste end to end all the
columns of all The Suns printed and sold
last year you would get la continuous
strip*of interresting information, common
sense, wisdom, sound doctrine, and sane
wit long enough to reach from Printing
House square to the top of Mount Cop
ernicus in the moon, then back to Print
ing House square, and then three-quarters
of the way back to the moon again .
But The Sun is written for the inhabit
ants of the earth; this same strip of in
telligence would girdle the glol>c
twenty-seven or twenty-eight times.
If every buyer of a copy of The Sun
during the past year has spent only one
hour over it, and if his wife or his grand
father has spent another hour, this news
paper in 1883 has afforded the human
race thirteen thousand years of steady
reading, night and day.
It is only by little calculations like
these that you can form any idea of the
circulation of the most popular of Ameri
can newspapers, or of its influenceon the
opinions and actions of American men
and women,
The Sun is, and will continue to be, a
newspaper which tells the truth without
fear of cousequenees, which gets at the
facts no matter how much tlie process
costs, which presents tho news of all the
world without waste of words and in the
mo\t readable shape, which is working
with all its heart for the cause of honest
goverment, and which therefore believes
that the Republican party must go, and
go in this coming year of our Lord, 1884.
If you know the Sun, you like it al
ready, and you will read it with accustom-
