quotations from Hamlet, after
which many aubjeota of business
were presented and discussed.
The concluding chapter of Ham-

of tbeevenihg, conducted by Mrs*
Dr. Bryant. Though the last

by tragic dtfhths, the mem ben of

In the center of each table was a

In they hid eggs of various hues
and cunningly attatolied to them

they spread across the table.
Each guest drew the ribbon near-

You may tslk sbout your in-
cubators but, G. E. Ballew of
Farmersville has the most
for the manu-
facture of chickens that are know
of. .
The Democrat ^reporter met
Mr. Ballew who showed him how
hia new incubator worked,. It ia
a long wooden affair nearer the
ahape of a wagon than anything
Thia ia divided into newts, each
provided with s feed and
water trough. • The hens ars
confined on tbe e nesta and Mr.
Ballew says any old ben will do,
no matter whether she hs* iorm-
ed her plans to incubate or not.
She Is compelled to stay there
and soon grows to like it.
There is a brooder attached
and when the chicks are hatched
they are all given to one hen and
the others begin over again with
a freahsupply of eggs. Thus they
become habitual setters.
If hen* arr wmij
be presecd into service and make
good mothere(?).
In this slay the work is evened
up ami tt4 roosters havs no time
to stand around and crow.
J. if. Vsntrese, of Wbitee
Groye, cut down a liee tree last
areek which was found to cootain
aa uoasually big quantity of
honey and bees. He hopes to
hive the bees. Mr. Vantrese in-
forms us that this has been n
disastrous winter on boea. He
lost seven of his nine hives. Wes
Perkins hss lo«t about thirty-five
atanda, while J. G. and Dave
Williams of Whites Grove have
also suffered lotses of the
same nature. Mr. Vantreee ia of
the opinion that some epidemic
is prevalent among the beee be-
cause In some of his stands after
all the Bees had died out were
found eight to Inn pounds of
honey, <
