About 3 o'clock in the afternoon on July 4, they went out for bass and this is their story, which of course must be true: They headed for the east end of the lake, among the rushes, where they commenced casting bait. After covering a lot of territory, they finally pulled in near shore and cast over some old sunken lugs and brush, when whiz, kerwhulop went a big bass after the expert, but failed to take the bait. One after another for more than twen ty good strikes resulted in landing only one fair sized bass. Lew says the only way he can account for it is that the extreme heat made the bass too logy to strike the bait hard enough to hook.

At the recent meeting of the Mary land State Bee Keepers' association in Baltimore, Dr. B. N. Gates of the United States department of agricul ture exhibited and described an ap paratus for securing swarms. As will be seen from the illustration, it con sists of a wooden box with holes In five of the sides, the sixth Bide being open, says the Orange Judd Farmer. Any convenient size will answer. The box shown by Dr. Gates was about 16 inches long, "12 high and 8 wide.. The holes were about an Inch" in diameter. At the top were two slits in which small pieces of comb filled with unsealed brood could be let down into the box and fastened so that they would not Jar out. They are placed parallel .with the long tide of the box, so as to leave no obstruc tion when the bees are to be Jarred out In the center of the bottom and the top of the box larger holes are bored for a pole to pass through. 9 ooo ooo I j 9j0 0 0 O O o'olo o o o o O O O O Or''O O O O O A Simple Swarm Catcher. Several poles of varying lengths are provided, so as to reach high or low clusters of bees. When the pole has Iteen put In place through the box a hook Is fastened to the top, so this may be hung over a limb if neces sary. Preferably the edges should be bound with Iron to prevent Injury when the box is Jarred to get the bees out. In operation all that is necessary la to catch half a ptnt or more of bees In the box and let the box hang near where the bees have started to form a cluster. They wtll quickly assem ble In the box by coming through the holes, and all that will be necessary will be to carry the box and dump the bees either Into or in front of the new hive. The bees will take pos session in the ordinary way. Very Fine. Isaac's house was for sale and he told his friend Abram about an offer he had had.
