The value Of the bee in the work of
fertilizing plants by carrying pollen
from one plant to another is greater
than its use in producing honey, says
the Southwest. In fact, without the aid
of bees many crops would be complete
failures. Darwin found that in 100
heads of purple clover protected from
the visitations- of bees not seed was
produced, while 1Ooheads visited by bees
produced nearly 5000 seeds. When two
varieties of certain plants are grown in
the same neighborhood there Is liabil-
ity of Decentralization, as bees forage
over a wide territory. twill, therefore,
pay the farmer or fruitgrower to keep
at least one hive of bees or encourage
his neighbor to do so.

Times, in his report said: "The asylum
people were ready for us, and evidently
expecting us, for when the train stopped
at Marion potter for the asylum grabbed
the woman by the arm and with wave
of his hand to the balance Of us yelled out,
"every body right this way for the asy-
lum."
The asylum porter evidently knows a
lunatic when he sees one. And after
reading the Times reporters account OF
the convention, which was reproduced in
last weeks Clnch Valley News,we are not
astonished that the asylum porter spotted
the Times reporter Immediately as one OF
The persons expected at the asylum.

The world will discover that, under a
republic, military administration OF con-
ouered territory can be maintained as
wisely, as strenuously and as long as the
like administration of like territory by any
other government in the world. The pro-
clamation sets our Constitution over con-
ouered territory of the United States, and
sharply differentiates such territory from
States themselves. Territory is posses
sion with which we can constltutlonally
do anything whatever, as a nation, thal
we please. If this fact was not generally
known, the war, us school teacher, Is
making it known in an unmistakable man.
ner. All power carries on it the stamp
and behind it the character OF those
welding it, The American character is
an insurance of the compatibility OF the
power of the United States with the vel
fare of humanity. Sword and law IN
American hands are not rival or conflict
ing forces. Each is the agent Of the same

ton of portion of the world to the area
dominated by and dedicated to that be-
