They consist of box, 40 inches sqtwirjp, 18 inches deep, with two upright par titions. 18. inches -wide, equal distance apart. Small cleats are on each side, for the nest to slide in. The back can be covered with any light material, such as old zime, or an old oilcloth held in place with . light strips. The nests OPEN. are made of a' board wide enough to . fill the place, and 13 inches long, with an upright piece five inches wide con caved, for the front of nest, nailed to the bottom, 12 inches from the back end. They should be made interchange able, so if a hen wants to sit on either one, let her have her own nest, by moving hen and nest together, into either row you wish. The doors are made seven inches wide, hinged to sides by large screws, and should, when closed, leave the open space at top and bottom equal. The advantages of these nests are CLOSED. many, xney are compact, easily moved. easy to clean, and other hens cannot HisitlTrVi till A. ni ftprs 'lv.h ait.t.iTicr Kfrnn e are confined, but cannot break the eggs if they try to get 6ff ; the nest is well ventilated and secluded, and , can be closed at night so the hens cannot roost in them.

The man who allows his bees to build their own foundation is merely wasting the time of the bees. Sometimes it seems' like spending a great deal of money that might be saved to buy foundatin. Dut is rally economical to 'lo so. Honeycomb is made of practically pure wax, and this is, m j f act, the fat of the bees. It is un Jer tha j scales of the abdomen and may be seen there if the bee is put under a glass of very ordinary magnifying power. This wax is pulled from its place by the claws of the bees and worked into comb, and tbis operati(n takes time that is lost when the colony might be storing nectar if the foundation has been furnished, No man has been able to make founda- tion that is as soft, and pliable as the comb tbe bees make, but a pretty fair imitation is made that answers all prac tical purposes. When honey, comb is first made it is, as every one knows, sweet and perfectly palatable, but as soon as brood begins to be grown in it, each embryo weaves a thin cocoon that is never removed, and the cell becomes smaller and the comb darker with each succeeding brood hatched in it. This makes the bees grow smaller and smaller, and such comb should be cut out and melted down for sale before it gets too dark to find a place to keep them. Where sections axe used the comb is, of course, removed often end sold, and here is where the most profitable use of foundation comes in. Journal of Agri culture. WITH THE BUSY BEES. In hiving a swarm make sure that ! nnaon ic lTifiiflf the "hive. A i.r,,K na i transformed in- to a queen when it is five or six days -CX nviovi-6iw old. In breeding queens artificially it is important to get good cells for brood of the right age. An absolute requisite of successful beekeeping is a prompt attention to all of its varied duties. If a colony has a young queen and is strong in numbers it will curry out the eggs and moths as fast as hatched. Bees when building comb begin at the top and hang in heavy clusters to the comb until they complete it. Never-allow a swarm, of bees to re main out long after settling. Hive them as soon as possible and lessen the risk of loss. ' : In each family of bees there are three distinct kinds, which- differ in form, color, structure, size,, habits, and i unc tion. .

Absolutely Paro THERE IS NO SUBSTITUTE mm "I find Thedford's Black-Draught good medicine for liver disease. It cured my foi after he had spent $100 with doctors. It is all tbe med icine I take." MRS. CAROLINE MARTIN, Parkeraburg, W. Va. If your liver does not act reg ularly go to your druggist and secure a package of Thedford's Black-Draught and take a dose tonight. This great family medicine frees the constipated bowels, stirs up the torpid liver and causes a healthy secretion of bile. Thedford'.s Black - Draught will cleansa the bowels of im purities and strengthen the kid neys. A torpid liver invites colds, biliousness, chills and fever and all manner of sick ness and contagion. Weak kid neys result in Bright 'e disease which claims as many victims as consumption. A 25-cent Backage of Thedford's Black- Taught should always be kept in the house.

All large dealers, like the Portland firms, htive enormous expenses that we do not have in the way of immense rent, electric light, clerk hire, freight, dravage and numerous other bills." Especially is this true of their n tents who cart their pianos around from town to town, creating bills which you have to share if you buy of them. Larpe firms save about S10 on a piano bv buying in large carload lots Do you think thai makes up for she above expenses? We are in a position to sell cheaper than any larga firms and the way our customer;-, are i creasing gives evidence that people re finding it out. Beware of spec ial sales, piano clubs and the .like.
