The ammonia must first be placed in a cup, pour on it a few drops of cold water and stir it well, so as to form a thick paste, then mix it up with the rest. Then take a piece of the paste, roll it out into a cake not over % inch thick, and cut up into convenient sizes as desired. This done, put the cakes on a flat tin (which must be greased beforehand) and bake from 12 to IS minutes in a hot oven.—Br. Co- LUMEAN, St. Mary's Abbey, Buckfast, Devon, England. American Me Journal Bees Wintered Well—Remedy for Bee-Sting Poisoning On Nov. 20, 1906, we put 87 colonies of bees into our bee-cellar. They win- tered well. On March 25, 1907, we set out one colony, the thermometer show- ing 70 degrees. We set out the rest by moonlight that evening. The next day they had a good flight, although the east wind was a little rough, but at S the thermometer showed 70. Although the last 3 days of March were very rough, cold, and windy, yester- day the bees brought in pollen. The one colony set out on the 2Sth brought in pollen shortly after being put out. On page 93 is given a remedy for beesting poisoning. Will the writer please tell us how to use this remedy, and what quantity to use ? Bee-sting poison has had at difi'erent times a severe effect on me, and caused terrible agony and distress, therefore to know a remedy would be greatly appreciated. Mary Theilmann.
