" Truth crushed to earth shall rise again The eternal years of God are hers ; But error, wounded, writhes with pain And dies among its ; Xhe Principal honey plants of Southern California are the white, green, blue and black sage; buckthorn, alfilaree, wild clover, crowsfoot—white, blue, yellow and pink ; wild buckwheat, yerba santa, alfalfa, fruit bloom and the honey-dew from cottonwoods and willows. The Qualifications of a bee- keeper are gentleness, patience, absence of fear, and perfect command of self. Fear must be overcome or concealed. It may be present at first, but usually gives place to confidence after a little experience. The theory that bees in- stinctively select some persons as natural pnemies, has no foundation in fact, Oranulatiou of Honey.—A Canadian subscriber writes that last Fall he labeled his extracted-honey with the usual foot-note, saying that: "All pure honey will granulate in cold weather," etc. To his surprise, that honey did not granulate, although he knows that it is pure. As a result he stands convicted of selling honey that is not pure, according to his own printed label. He says the honey was of extra fine quality. The assertion on that label was too sweeping. It is a fact that some pure honey will not granulate in cold weather. The opposite is true, viz. : that honey adulterated with glucose will not granu- late in cold weather, and that is the way the label should have read. There are exceptional cases where pure honey will not granulate, but when honey Is granu- lated, it may be asserted with confidence that it is pure. Prof. A. has return
