SIXCESSFl'L BEE COLONY IS A If ORCHARD.
BY SHEBA CHILDS HARGREAVES.
ARTICLE No. I.
IN the effort to reduce the cost
of living;, especially for the small
home owner In the city, much has
been written recently concerning gar
dening and rrult growing In the bacK
yard. Poultry and rabbits are also
receiving their just share of public
ity, but by far the most profitable
venture for the money invested and
the labor Involved has been over
looked. I refer to beekeeping in a
small way.
One or two thrifty, well-cared-f or
colonies of bees In the shade of the
berry bushes or beside a clump of
hollyhocks in the flower garden will
sweeten the daily bread for a good
slssed family the year round and at
the same time prove an absorbingly
interesting outdoor sport for the
tired business man or the housewife
who needs to spend more time in the
open air. There is no hard work con
nected with beekeeping. It is mainly
a matter of cleanliness and timely
attention to minute detail.
The would-be beekeeper up to a few
years ago simply set himself up In
business by buying a hive of bees
from some amateur who had a sur
plus. After placing it in position In
his "back- yard he ignored the exist
ence of bees until fall, when he began
thinking of honey. In exceptionally
good - years there might be a few
pounds, but In most cases- there was
no honey at all. Thus neglected, the
colony soon dwindled through ex
cessive swarming,- or fell before the
onslaught of the bee -moth and the
various diseases to which bees are
subject.
Proper Care EMential.
If bees are to be kept they must be
properly cared for; a few neglected
colonies are -breeding ground for the
infectious bee diseases which in times
past have practically wiped out apia
ries. To avoid disease, the beginner
should be careful to buy his colonies
from reliable dealers and ever after
exercise care in keeping out' disease,
for prevention is a simple matter
when compared to cure in the apiary.
Aside from the honey, there are
other advantages in beekeeping. The
bee Is a necessity in the orchard and
among, the flowers, and vegetables.
Orchardists rely on the bee to scatter
pollen from tree to tree, thus insur
ing fruit. So the gardener and fruit
grower in a small way is distinctly
benefited by every bee colony in his
neighborhood.
One particular advantage which
beekeeping has over other back-yard
industries is that little space is re
quired.' Lacking a back yard, the
hives may be placed on the roof of
a garage or any other building having
the correct exposure, providing, of
course, there is an easy access to the
hives, so that they may be opened
without inconvenience. In some cities
the roofs of office buildings support
apiaries.
The pasture for bees is particularly
good in and around Portland. Bees
are rangers, jrathering honey over a
territory five or six miles square.
Aside from the lavish quantities of
flowers and fruit blossoms in the res
idence districts, we have 150 acres of
alsike clover in the vicinity of Reed
college. This clover is ideal for bees.
The honey produced is pure white
and of delicate flavor. As far -as pas
ture is concerned, no one need hesi
tate in keeping bees. We suffer from
lack of bees; in fact, there Is lavish
waste of nectar from which honey is
made.
Wet Springs Discouraging.
"There are other reasons, however,
which have tended to check the bee
keeper. Our climate is not ideal for
honey, gathering. Bees do not fly In
rainy weather and our cold, wet
springs are rather discouraging. A
person who is not well grounded in
the art could not hope to succeed with
bees on a commercial scale here
any other place, for that matter hut
many paying apiaries began with one
hive, and no experience on the part
of the beekeeper. In fact, this is the
only practical way to learn beekeep
ing, unless there is an opportunity to
work in a well-ordered apiary.

DEAR FRIENDS: We have sown,
grown and harvested our early
garden; we have fought our insect
enemies "to a finish," I hope; we
have prepared our ground again and
seeded or set out plants of all the
vegetables which will mature in late
fall and those which grow and are
ready for use, fresh from our gar
dens, during the winter and early
spring. Now our next concern seems
to belong to those vegetables which
we planted in the spring but which
take the whole Season to mature.
In the words of the nursery rhyme:
'Mary, Mary, quite contrary, how
does your garden grow?" So today
we will consider just how this long
season garden should grow through
the heat and drought of summer and
until It is ready for harvesting in
the fall.
Raising a garden is really, ybu see,
an endless "continued story." There
Is a constant procession of events.
We have our comedies and our real
little tragedies and many unexpected
climaxes. Mother Nature Is very
wise and very old. We cannot work
along with her without learning
many things some of them not con
nected with gardening per se, but
secrets that the wise old mother gives
to those who become intimate with
her. '
The "great outdoors" is fascinating
to everyone at this time of year, but
there is just as much of nature's
wisdom and power in our own back
yards as there is on the tops of moun
tains. It is all equally wonderful to
those who understand.
Oar Summer Garden.
Here are the vegetables which we
planted in spring and which are now
growing through the summer to be
harvested (with the exception of
parsley, parsnips, safsify and chard)
before the first killing frost in the
fall: Late string beans, dry beans,
pole string beans, lima beans, car
rots, celery, cucumbers, watermel
lons, muskmelons, okra, parsley,
parsnips, peppers, main crop pota
toes, salsify, Swiss chard, tomatoes,
winter onions.
We will consider the summer culti
vation of each of these vegetables
separately, as there are many little
points that are very important in
their treatment and plants differ in
their requirements even more than
oeonle do.
We will describe the vegetables
named above, giving also any spe
c.ial advice on harvesting spring crops
or the care of the "winter garden
' .which was spoken of at the time we
. planted it, and later we will take up
the summer care of our permanent
l.t-ris erlobe artichoke. asparagus,
rhubarb and garden herbs then will
.discuss briefly the summer culture
required by our garden fruit.
The Summer Care of Rush Beana.
Beans should not have too. rich, a
soil, as it tends to make them run
to leaf and vine, while it's their fruit
we want. . As they are extremely
sensitive to both cold and moisture
thev need irrigation in dry weather,
but not ioe-water from Mount Hood
dashed on them from a hose during a
hot. sunny da. Such treatment
stunts them Just as a
would. '
All the hot-season plants those we
-plant the last in our garden in spring
grow much better if they can be
watered with warm water. Some
farmers leave water outdoors in tubs
through the heat of the day. so it is
warm to water their beans, toma
toes, cucumbers and melons at night.
I know one neighbor who attaches
her hose to her hot-water faucet and
throws the water up high, so it is a
little cooled' before it reaches these
plants. It makes a wonderful differ
ence in the way they grow.
But the best way is to run little
furrows down by the vines and let
the cold water run on and -sink into
the hot soil, which warms it up be
fore it reaches the plant roots.
Up to the time of blossoming beans
should have frequent shallow culti
vation, but when they begin to blos
som great care must be exercised, as
. any mutilation, of the roots by culti
vation after the plants have come
into bloom is likely to cause the blos
soms to blast and so cut off the crop.
- A "trick" we found out ourselves
in growing beans is to let the early
bean vines rest a little after they
are through bearing and then start In
irrigating them copiously and culti
vating them well, and the same vines
will blossom again and bear another
good crop. A little nitrogen applied
at first gives them a start, but do not i
use much, as we want them to form
fruit pods instead of leaves.
Cultivating- Dry Beans.
Dry beans are easily grown, but
they must have plenty of water; fail
ing of this, the little plants start
producing pods when only a few
inches ' high nature's effort to re
produce before death.
By giving them much water they
grow to be large, thrifty plants and
bear a large crop of bean seed. They
must also have constant cultivation.
but, like all beans. It must be shal
low.
Through the whole season the cul
tivation of all varieties of beans
should be -frequent enough to pre
vent weeds getting a footing or a
crust forming, but when possible, it
is well to weed beans by hand, espe
cially near the plants.
Beans should never be cultivated
or disturbed in any way (even by
walking by them so one's clothes
brush them) when they are wet with
dew or rain or irrigation. , To do so
renders the crop liable to the spore
disease, called "rust," to which it is
subject. Dry beans must be watched
carefully in fall and gathered as soon
as the pods are yellow and dry, or
they will burst open and scatter their
own seed on the ground for next
year's crop and you will lose all
your dry beans for winter.
The Peculiarities of Pole Beana.
Pole beans of all kinds are even
more sensitive . than . bush beans to
cold draughts and winds, but are of
superior quality and productiveness.
If the old- Kentucky Wonder vines
have all the water they can use, the
amount of beans they will. produce is
almost unbelievable. In southern
Oregon I saw a short row of these
beans perhaps 10 feet long which
grew right qn the bank of a little
irrigation " ditch, which was always
full of running water. These- pole
beans produced bushels of the most
delicious long green pods and sup
plied the whole neighborhood, all
summer. You do not need so many
hills of pole beans, but do give those
you have a great deal of water at
the roots never on the tender vines
from the hose.
Remember to- train all the vines
around the poles the way the sun
goes, from east to west. That is the
natural way for. all vines to twine
and they grow better so. As they
grow and mature pods all up the
length of the pole you can pick those
maturing at the bottom while the re
mainder are growing. Pick them
when green and crisp for use, and
those intended for canning should be
picked quite a. little younger than
those for table use. -Vegetables that
are good when; eaten the same day
light -f rost they are picked if . little . too mature
ber that beans, peas, corn and all
other vegetables should be in a much
more immature stage for canning
than for table use. -
Oregon pole limas are ready to eat
as green shelled beans when the pods
are filled and first begn to ripen.
and are at their best when the full
green pods begin to turn yellow.
Tley are delicious canned as green
beans, or they may be left on the
vines to' ripen for dry lima- beans for
winter, however, picking the early
pods as soon as you can use them
will force the vines to set more pods
than they would otherwise.
Early Beetn, Cabbage. Late Carreti.
Our, early beets are now being used.
as they are late this year. They
should be kept well watered and used
as Boon as possible, as they become
tough and woody if left in th
around .over summer.
Our early cabbage should usually
all be matured by August 10. It may
be gathered as soon as the heads are
large enough -for eating or after it is
fully mature, but all the heads should
be gathered and used soon after they
are mature, as they will not keep in
good condition. They are liable to
spilt open and spoil. A slight loosen
ing of the roots sometimes stops this
but it is better to gather them (split
heads can be used also) and make
them into sauer: kraut if you have
too many to use at once.
Carrots need the best of surface
tillage, but are easy to grow after
they are once established. Do not
be discouraged if your winter car
rots do not come up as expected. No
vegetables require so long to ger
minate as carrots sometimes do. The
seed may lie dormant for weeks and
then come up after a good rain, so do
not give them up too soon. Be sure
your soil is well cultivated for your
winter carrots, as dry or weedy Boll
is fatal to them.
course it must have some sunlight J
each day. j
Well rotted stable manure and un- i
leached wood ashes are both good' for;
it. as is nitrate of soda to start th-a
growth. In watering the crop great j
care must be taken to see that 'watr
is applied at the right times and in j
the proper amount, both of which are
governed by the kind of soil you have.
The plants must never lack moisture.
and yet, as said above, they must
never stand in water-logged soil.
Thorough waterings must be given at
longer Intervals rather than shallow
ones at frequent intervals and the soil
must be wet down to the bottom of
the roots.
Level cultivation Vnust be used with
celery and no dirt thrown up against
the plants. Incessant cultivation must
be kept up all through the growing
season. A tendency of the plants to
go to Beed is caused by. some sort of
check in their growth, so avoid this
if possible.
Also be very sure the plants are
not disturbed when they are wet or
the ground damp, as to do bo is liable
to cause injury to them from rust, as
is the case also with beans.
It is better to set your celery in a
square and quite close together. In
this way it shades the ground and
helps blanch itself. The best varieties
to use are White Plume (white elf
blanching), and Golden Yellow, - also
self-blanching, so called.
: Swfrt Corn In Summer.
The roots of the corn, like those of
beans, grow very near the surface, so
it cannot stand drought as well as
deep-rooted plants. For this reason
it must be cultivated more than most
vegetables to keep up the dust mulch
which prevents the ground drying
out. For the same reason, however.
our- cultivation must be exceedingly
shallow that we do not cut into tne
roots in hoeing and also that we do
not dig down into the damp subsoil
and open It up so it will dry out.
The time to pick corn is when it
has the most sugar, which is when
the kernel is fully developed but is
still "in the dough" or milky state.
You can pull back the husk and ex
amine It without picking the ear if
you are careful.. Corn doea not keep
long in prime conditions, so eat or can
or dry it as soon after it is ready as
possible. Also if you pick the first
ears as soon as they are set the sec
ond setting will be much better.
Some people eat very small immature
ears, cob and all, just as we do string
beans. Did you ever try it that way?
If you find worms in the end of the
ears after they show, the silk, open
the ends and dust three times, at in
tervals, with arsenate of lead powder
and it will end this trouble.
How to Dry Corn.
Many people are very fond of dried
corn and prefer to put It up for win
ter this way. but recipes for drying
are not so easy to find as those for
canning. So I will give' an old, tried
method here. It is especially for home
gardeners, as the first sentence
shows: -
Pick the corn and get it to drying
the came day. Husk it, pick off the
silk and cook on the cob in rapidly
boiling water from 6 to 10 minutes to
set the "milk."
It may be dried on the cob. but is
usually cut off, either by cutting the
kernels lengthwise and scraping out
the pulp w:ith the back of a knife, or
what is more common and much bet
ter because more economical, cutting
the kernels from the cob with a sharp
knife, being careful not to cut off any
The Care of Summer Caullfloirrr,
The cultivation . of cauliflower is
the same as that of cabbage in gen
eral, but it is harder to grow success
fully and requires more water.
The leaves should be brought over
the heads and tied around them to
blanch the heads well: or -the leaves
may be pinned together with tooth
picks, but tying is surer.
The heads should be cut for Use
when the "curd," -which is really the
green flower buds, is very compact
and hard, as they soon become tough
and bitter after they open and sepa
rate into branches. 'Our early crop
should all be matured and used by
the middle of August. They are very
fine canned if you have an oversup-
ply. but if not It is better to use
them up now as you will soon have
fall cauliflower and then- broccoli In
winter and spring. If you want to
use .cauliflower in your mixed pickles
later you can break it up fine and
salt it down now in good strong brine
and then freshen it by soaking in re
peated waters when the time comes
that you want to use it. Of course
you will use the poorest heads for
this, as they will be all right in mixed
picklea. The same may be said of
string beans. Salt the tender pods
down now in brine and freshen them
also when you are ready to make
your mixed pickles in the fall.
. Growing Celery.
If you have plenty of water to irri
gate it, it is yet possible to set out
some celery plants and have them
mature before the end of the season.
May 30 I described the early planting
of celery plants in detail and have not
room to repeat It today, but the es
sentials for the best celery culture
are a very rich soil, a cool climate
and plenty of water.
Our climate la especially adapted
to celery, being much better for it
than that of California, from which
we import carloads of it. By fertiliz
ing our soil well and watering it copl
ously we can raise as fine celery as is
raised anywhere and it will surely
pay you to try a little this year.
Celery grows best in sandy loam
but our clay loams raise good celery
when the soil is well enriched and
cultivated and well drained, for while
celery needs much water it must not
stand in water as some gardeners
say it "cannot stand wet feet. Neith
er can it stand exposure to very hot
sunlight, so if possible plant your
celery behind the corn or pole beans
of the cob, and then Bcraping the cob
clean with thevback of the knife.
Having the pulp altogether, spread
it on clean granite or tin plates and
set It on the back of the stove or in
the warming oven or in a warm (not
hot) oven with the door open. Or set
the plates in a sunny window,
Try to screen from dust and flies
as much as possible. Your pulp will
dry sooner if it is only one-half
Inch to an inch deep on the plates.
Stir it occasionally so as to . have it
all dry evenly, and you can soon turn
plates together as it dries. Stir it
often, breaking up all the chunks
which form, bo that when 'it is fully
dry it is in kernels and not in masses.
Be very careful how you store it. aa
it is sure to get wormy if it is possi
ble for insects to get to it. A tight
paper bag is secure, but it should be
examined often and If the least sign
of insects is seen, heat it hot in the
oven and restore.
To cook dried corn let it soak 24
hours or longer and stew it slowly In
the water it soaked in for a long time,
so that it may slowly absorb back the
water which was dried out of It. It
is altogether different, cooked this
way, than whn boiled rapidly
Drylnir Berries.
I will leave the discussion of the
summer cultivation of other vege
tables until next week and spend what
little time we have left in talking
about the drying of fruit, as some of
this fruit is nearly past bearing now,
and other kinds soon will be.
All kinds of berries may be dried
in the same manner described for
corn except that fruit is never scald
ed in boiling water, or "blanched,'
and should not be dried "bone dry1
or until it looses Its color and be
comes brittle. To prepare berries fo
drying, pick them over, handling very
carefully to prevent bruising the
fruit, and not washing unless abso
lutely necessary. (They may be
wiped with a damp cloth.)
Spread them In thin layers on gran
ite or earthen plates and dry them as
rapidly as you can without burning
them. Dry them only until they are
spongy and elastic, when they are
ready to store. You must be just as
careful to keep your dried fruit from
insects as you are corn or you will
find them wormy from the eggs of a
moth. Extra precautions pay well.
Drying; Cherrlen and Prunes.
These are the best fruits to dry, as
the sweet cherries can be used in
place of raisins and prunes in place
of figs. They are delicious used in
this way and they dry very easily.
Cherries sometimes dry on the trees
and are perfectly good..
To dry pit them carefully, lay on
plates and dry as above. They also
dry nicely in the sun like corn.
Dried . prunes are used In - cakes,
puddings, etc.. in place of figs or rai
sins and also may be cooked and used
for sauce. If cooked right they are de
licious. Soak them 24 to 36 hours.
Cook in the water in which they were
soaked, and without sugar. Simmer
very slowly on the back of the stove
for a long time until they reabsorb
the water they have lost and are
nearly like fresh prunes.
We will continue the summer gar
den discussion next week.
