Artificia! Breeding,

in dehdrning a calf at a week old or at a year old is worth thinking about. Costly compounds, electric dehorners are obtainable from any Veterinarian or through various Supply Houses. If these are applied when the horns be- gin to appear it will completely destroy them.

BEES is

“packaged"’ bees in honey yield and lower cost of production for the third successive year at L’- Assomption. The overall poor crop in 1958 was attributed to rain and cool weather in July. “Packaged” bees averaged 59 Ib. per colony as compared with 77 Ib. for “over-wintered” bees.

l: |Comparable figures for 1957 were

129 Ib. and 142 Ib. respectively.

Many beekeepers find salt dou- bly useful, in controlling the growth of grass in front of the hives and as a salt source for the bees.

»

It pays to keep the hive en- trance clear because grass and weeds clog the entrance and dis-| rupt the traffic of the flying bees reducing the honey crop.

In addition, beekeepers have ob- served that bees like salt. Ac- tually it seems that bees prefer to go a distance for salt, say 15 or 25 rods from the hive. Let- ting the bees work block salt is much easier than bothering to put salt in the drinking water. SHORTHORNS

The method of identification in Shorthorns is by tattooing in the right ear. The herd letters and the year letters are used. All an- imals must be ‘tattooed before six months of age. To become a member of the Shorthorn Acso- ciation the fee ts $5.00. A Jun- ior membership is $1.00. Non -
