Sprinkling usually moistens the surface soil only and thus the roots naturally come up there for water. When the root system is concentrated near the surface there is more danger of injury by hoeing; and if sprinkling is not done constantly, plants will be quickly affected by drouth. Considered from the time angle, moreover, sprinkling is impractical. Many hours can be wasted holding the hose and directing the Bpray. Time of watering is not of great importance, but it is usually considered more economical to water thoroughly early in the forenoon or late in the afternoon since the soil can then be thoroughly soaked with less loss from evaporation. The most efficient method of watering, according to Walter H. Nixon, Ferry Seed Breeding Station vegetable expert, is to lay the hose on the ground. Do not have too heavy a flow of water, or there will be a washing of soil and exposure of roots. Let the water run slowly in one place for 20 minutes to half an hour. KEEP THE SUBSOIL MOIST.

While he dictated, his eyes rested inattentively on her head, bowed above her notebook; but his thoughts were on his dictation, till as the last letter was done he stopped in staring at the hair above her brow. She looked up inquiringly, and he finished the letter; but when she had gone to her typewriter and he was alone, he was troubled and full of a deep, protective concern. Unmistakably, in the dark masses of Linda's hair, there were threads of gray. He thought, incredulously, that she was no older than Barbara Twenty-two- ?

The colonies are not numerous compared with those of wasps, or the stingless or the honey bee. A populous colony may number from 300 to 400 individuals, according to a writer in the Indianapolis News. The proportions of sexes and castes of some species have been found to be, in a colony of 120, 25 females, 36 males and 59 workers. The roundish oval cells differ in size and have no exact arrangement. Besides the cells containing the young, the old discarded ones are made to serve as honey tubs or pollen tubs. The queen bee awakens in early spring from her winter's sleep under the leaves or moss, or in deserted nests, and selects a nesting place, generally in an abandoned nest of a field mouse, or beneath a stump or sod, and immediately collects a small amount of pollen mixed with honey, and in this deposits from seven to fourteen eggs, gradually adding to the pollen mass until the first brood is hatched. As soon as food enough has been collected, she lays the eggs for the second brood As soon as the larvae are capable of motion and begin feeding, they Par tha ...v. puucu Uy wnicn j . , they are surrounded, and gradually separating, push their wav in uari,.. i . .1 raMinnx Tin vynen inev have attained their full siz thm :n wall about them, which is strength- - rlt " uees it with n .woa. covering thin Invoe ui itti wnen tne lar vae . reach tho tm. , . , A . .
