THENEW METHOD 



In Health and JDIsease. 



By W. E Forest. M. D.. 13th Edition, Re- 

 vised, Illustrated, aud Enlarged. Tbis is 

 the greatest and best work ever publisht 

 as a Home Phtsician, and as 



A (liiiid*- to lloallli. 



It makes the way from WeaKne»>N to 

 Nli*eii;:;1li so plain that only those who 

 ai'e past recovery (the very few) need to 

 be sick, and the well who will follow its 

 teachings <-a»nol l»e !s>iclc. It is now 

 in many families the only counsellor in 

 matters of health, saving the need of call- 

 ing a physician and all expenses for medi- 

 cines, as it teaches Hygiene and the use 

 of Nature's remedies, not a «Ii*mjs^ 

 lr<-siliiient. 



All Clirouio I>iM«^a»«es 



are considered, and there is not a curable 

 disease that has not been helpt by some 

 of the •■ .\>"' J//'//m(7.v " given here; even 

 those who have been pronounced <'on- 

 tiiiiniplivo have been entirely cured.

Mention, the A.merica/n Bee Journal, 



put a chaff cushion of 4 to 6 inches in thick- 

 ness. 



The hive-covers are made with cleats, 

 and when I put them on I put a piece of 

 section on the top of the cap to make a 

 little crack to admit air, thus preventing 

 dampness. It the covers fit down tightly, 

 dampness will accumulate from the breath 

 of the bees. 



The hives thus prepared were left upon 

 the summer stands, which consists of the 

 height of two bricks, one upon the other at 

 the back of the hive, and one in front: this 

 inclination is suflicient to cause the mois- 

 ture to run out of the front. Where there 

 were rows of hives placed closely together, 

 I wedged in leaves and grass between them, 

 and put a board to keep the rain from run- 

 ning down between them. 



I've no hives containing dead bees to 

 clean, and I received a joyous welcome 

 from all the colonies on my return home, 

 April 13. Mrs. L. Harkison.

Our hees wintered well, losing cne colony 

 out of ',2(, on account of queenlessuess. 



White clover is beginning to bloom, and 

 promises well. Bees began swarming April 

 23. We had two swarms that date. They 

 both went together yesterday. We had 

 three swarms ,that went together, but we 

 have the queens' wings dipt, so that don't 

 worry us. 



Here comes another one. I will see you 

 later. 



Well, they are landed safely home, .just 

 as if nothing had happened. 



Well, Mr. Editor, I am ioing lots of talk- 

 ing for a lad of 13. O, yes, here comes 

 another swarm. Well, I iwill see you in a 

 few minutes. 



They are safely landed back home. It is 

 growing a little cloudy, so I think I will be 

 able to finish my .letter. What 1 want to 

 .say is, father is a railroad man, and is gone 

 from home most of the time. So I will try 

 to make a big bee-man, if the editor will 

 give me a show. Good by for tbis time.
