OUR HONEY INTERESTS.
Lack of Cooperation Has Caused
Losses to California Bee Men.
RELIEF FROM THE NEW EXCHANGE.
Do Not Spray Blossoms-MedIeal Value OF
Honey-InJury to Blossoms-Other
Interesting Bee Matters.

The production of honey has been
practiced for the past forty years in
California upon what might be termed
a very loose system, says J. H. Mar
tin, in his paper before the San Jacinto
Farmers Institute. There has never
been season since the State has been
extensively stocked with bees, that the
output of honey could be definitely as
certained, and for statistics in relation
TO shipments we have to depend upon
figures from the various transportation
lines. The same lack of system and
uncertainty prevails in relation TO the
number of colonies of bees owned, and
even the number of persons engaged in
the business is left largely to conjec-
ture. In Southern California there are
over 1000 beekeepers, and the product
as far as can be ascertained from R. r.
statistics is over Z 900, 0O0 pounds for
the year '95, and while Southern Cali
fornia boasts of the largest area and
variety of honey producing plants, and
honey of the finest quality, we are re-
minded that Central California from
Bakersfield to Fresno, is becoming a
large producer of honey from its great
area of alfalfa fields

Honey for Canned Fruit.

Fruit Gamers of this valley are be-
ginning to use honey in putting up
fruit, and those who have tried it re-
port success, says the Tulare Register.
In the matter of perfect preserving,
keeping qualities and flavor it is said
to leave nothing to be desired. 1t
would seem that if honey can stand the
heat necessary it would make an ideal
sweet to put into canned fruit. 1t is
pure, abundant and cheap in this val
ley where fruit overfows, and those
who cannot afford to buy it can produce
enough for use with little outlay in
labor or money.

The Work of Bees.

A hive contains 10000 to so, 900
bees, half of which prepare the honey,
the other half attending to the wants
of the hive ar3 the family. On fine
day IS, 900 or 10000 individuals will,
in six or ten trips, be able to explore
from 300, 000 to 100000 flowers, say
several hundred thousand plants.
Again, the locality must be favorable
for the preparation of the honey, and
the plants that produce the most nectar
must flourish near the hive. A hive
inhabited by 10000 bees may, under
favorable conditions, receive about two
pounds of honey day.

Austin Corbin, the New York CAPT.
talist and railroad magnate, and his
nephew, Corbin Edgell, with DR.. Paul
Kunzier and Coachman John Stokes,
started on a fishing trip from their
home in Newport, N. H. On going
out of the yard at the farmhouse the
horses SHE'D, tipping over the open
carriage, throwing the occupants down
an embankment about eight feet
against stone wall. DIR. Kunzier
was thrown over the wall and sus-
tanned q. broken arm and sprained
ankle, so far as known, and Corbin
Edgell had his leg twice broken be-
tween the knee and ankle, and he sus-
tanned fractured skull. Stokes died
from his injuries about 6 o'clock, with
out regaining consciousness. Mr.. Cor
bin died at 9:42 in the evening, shortly
after the arrival of DIR. Cylley from
Boston. His son, Austin Corbin, Jr.,
arrived on a special train from Boston
about II O'Clock, but too late to see
his father alive. All the family were
present when he breathed his last.

Comb Honey Aids Digestion.

In eating comb honey many strive
to reject every particle of wax, fearing
that, as wax is indigestible, nightmare
and other trouble some consequences
will follow an indulgence in warm
biscuit and honey. 1t is true that
bread is more easily digested than
warm biscuit, as the latter is inclined
to ''pack" in chewing, but it may sur
prise some to know that comb honey
is really an aid to the digestion of hot
bread or biscuit. The philosophy of
the matter is that the flakes of wax
prevent the packing" while the
honey readily dissolves out, leaving
passages for the gastric juice to enter
the mass of food. The flakes of wax
are indigestible, that is true, but
when warmed are perfectly smooth
and will not injure the most delicate
membrane. In fact, they act as gen.
tie stimulant, and are beneficial in
some forms of alimentary difficulties.
The unpleasant symptoms from
which some suffer after eating honey
may often be removed by drinking a
little milk.

Outlook in Rivers ide County.

Bee men are dividing honors with
the rancher, on the matter of feeling
satisfied with the crop prospects, says
the Riverside Enterprise. The rains
have been just right to insure a boun-
teous harvest of buds and flowers from
which the busy bee can collect honey,
and the prospect for big harvest was
never better.
One large honey producer who has a
couple of large apiaries in the Temes-
cal country was in Riverside recently,
and when asked as to the outlook, re-
marked that in the many years he has
been in the business at his present loca.
ton he could not recall single season
when the prospects We're brighter.

A Short Crop Probable.

From present indications there will
be less honey for shipment from San
Diego county this season than for years
past, says J. S. HARRISON, in the San
Diego Sun. At my apiary near De-
scanso l have something over $50 stands
of bees, and so far there has only been
one swarm for the season. This year
don't expect to market a pound of honey
and will be satisfied if the bees can
save sufficient to carry them through
the winter. Last year l shipped $50
cases or 1859 pounds of honey to the
outside markets. This serious short
age in the honey crop attribute to the
late rains. From what l learn from
other parts of the county understand
the crop is equally short, so that the
bee industry will be of but little bene-
fit to the county this year. :"

Honey In Clear Packages.

One important feature of reform
sought by the new Exchange is to put
the product into new and clean pack
ages. Hundreds of carloads of honey
have in past years been shipped east in
secondhand gasoline and even kerosene
cans. The Exchange proposes to sup
ply the producer with new cans at re-
duced rates, and if he cannot comply
with the excellent regulation he will
have to stay outside the Exchange.
Another radical improvement is to put
the best grades of honey into small
packages for the retail trade, and it is
to be hoped that the brand of the Cali
fornia Beekeepers' Exchange will carry
with it such guarantee of quality
that there will be no suspicion of mixed
goods.

Cooperative Exchange.

The California Bee Keepers Ex-
change is purely cooperative associa-
ton. 1t is not joint stock company,
but every member has equal rights and
privileges. One dollar with an assess
ment of 25 cents per month for the first
year secures a memberhip certificate.
Every member agrees to market his
honey through the Exchange, the latter
receiving . per cent of the proceeds for
handling it. Other features too nu-
merous to mention are embodied in the
bylaws which are accessible to bee
keepers and others.

Honey is Healthy.

Everybody should know that honey
possesses one great superiority-ease
of digestion, says the Albany Cultiva-
tor. The nectar of flowers is almost
wholly cane sugar. The secretions
added by the bees change this to grape
sugar and so prepare it that it is almost
ready for assimilation without any
effort ON the part of the stomach; in
fact, Professor A. J. Cook once styled
honey "digested nectar" 1t will
readily be seen that honey is very
desirable food for those with weakened
digestive powers. If a person is very
tired, too exhausted to eat" it is
astonishing how few tastes of honey
will act almost like magic. Almost
no effort is required to make it ready
for assimilation. Persons suffering
from some forms of kidney trouble will
find that honey is a much more benefi-
cial food for them than is cane sugar.

Comb Honey and Extracted Honey.

If the market is local, | should not
advise running exclusively for extracted
honey, says a correspondent in Farm
and Home. | once visited an apiary
which was run for extracted honey and
all of it was sold at home The pro-
prietor said he could not supply the de-
mand But usually there is local
demand for fancy article of white
comb honey. This is only produced
during good flow and when the hives
are crowded with bees. Then the
comb will be so delicate as to be
scarcely observable when eaten. The
owner of a large apiary says: 81 have
barrel of extracted honey. l got it
from colonies that would not have
made any comb honey" This verifies
the statement of Langstroth that bees
refuse to build comb in the fall during
night, even when there is plenty of
honey to be had in the fields, but they
will gather and store in empty comb
if they have it, The barrel of honey
was taken from the outside combs of
colonies, and they refilled them in the
fall, so it was clear gain. The bee
keeper often sees an opportunity of
getting or 10 pounds of extracted
honey from colonies where there is no
chance of obtaining comb honey.

Bees Do Not Injure Fruit Blossoms.

The question was recently asked me
by neigbbor of my friend, DIR. N. @.
Higbie, writes l. A. Wool, in Gleanings
in Bee Culture: ''Do bees injure
fruit" Now, Brother Higbie keeps
some sixty swarms of bees, while the
neighbor in question keeps none; and
there seems to be very prevalent idea
among those who are unfamiliar with
honey bees and their nature that their
presence, in large numbers at least,
works an injury to fruit blossoms which
very materially lessons the following
crop of fruit. My answer to the gen.
tleman was very emphatic 'No,
sir. " But" said l, ION the con-
trary l consider the bees very import
ant adjunct to the various natural
agencies which are brought to bear in
the developing of bountiful fruit
crop Having been for number OF
years engaged in growing small fruit.
for market, l have come to see the
value of bees to such an extent that ]
have purchased few colonies, and
intend to increase the number"
If fruit-growers understood the
botanical structure of fruit blossoms
thoroughly they would recogize more
readily the agency of bees in the fertil'
ization of blossoms.

Venezuela boundary Case,

Washington.-The prediction by the

the Venezuela Boundary Commission
respecting the boundary line between
Venezuela and British Guiana is not
shared by those conversant with the
facts in the case. Justice Brewer, the
president of the commission, does not
think the commission will render an
opinion at an early day. Minister An.
drade of Venezuela does not look for a
discussion before fall.

study the Bee Question.

While farmers are looking for some
thing that will yield an income outside
of their farms, we would advise them
to study the bee question, says the
Rocky Mountain Agricolist. Many
an article could be bought with the
honey from the bees. Do not under
stand or think, though, that bees will
do well or produce honey without the
proper care. 1t is the opinion of the
writer that, for the outlay, nothing
on the farm pays such large percen-
tage ON the investment.

Street Commissioner of st. Louis, holds
that all city ordinances that are grant
ing corporations the right to lay con-
Quits and subways for electric wires
