season; from one hive we took 110 pounds 
of extracted honey; but 50 pounds is the 
average yield of n good, strong colony. At 
1234 cents we find a market in Abingdon for 
all our surplus honey, both comb and ex¬ 
tracted. Our bees did not swarm much this 
season; they were too busy gathering honey 
during the swarming season. We use the 
Triumi h Hive. We all work with the bees 
and are not afraid of their stinging us. We 
examined a few of them yesterday and found 
that all we examined hud plenty of honey.

pretty on the tree and make good jelly and 
preserves.

[The plums reached me safely. They are a 
very" handsome, small, red plum and resemble 
the Wild Goose in flavor. Ripening so late is 
quite unusual for a plum. We are glad to 
hear so good a report of flowers and bees.

them in a small plot that Ma gave me ior 
flowers; there were about 20 kind* of seeds, 
but they did not ull germinate; those that 
grew were very pretty. There were zinnias, 
single and double, of different, colors; one 
scabiosiu of the dark kind; I think it was 
beautiful; one pretty pink aster; also several 
other varieties of flowers, such as nas¬ 
turtiums, sweet peas, hollyhocks, morning- 
glories, aud chrysanthemums. Ma has a nice 
garden, too; she has roses, petunias, mignon- 
nottes, lilies, flowering beaus, antirrhinums, 
and both flowering aud sweet-scented gerani¬ 
ums and some curious vines. I have a small 
tree cactus ami a pin cushion cactus; the tree 
cactus is ouly an inch and n half high, aud a 
small one is starting at its side; it is a curious 
plant. I helped work in the garden this Sum¬ 
mer, but did not have any vegetables of my 
own. The cabbage did well until August, 
when the moth came and attacked it. We 
have three rows of celery in the garden, each 
about six feet long. I'a gave me the package 
of Diehl Mediterranean Wheat. 1 sowed it in 
a row, plautlug the grains three Inches apart; 
there were500 nice plump grains, i think if it 
grows, aud is well takeu care of, it will make 
me a small but nice little crop of wheat. I go
