The Apiary
Bee culture is carried on to quite
an extent, especially in Weiser anc
vicinity. 1t has been tried in the
upper valleys, but without success.
Oar winters are so short and sc
mild the bees do not require extra
housing nor extra feeding. They
thrive well upon the profusion OF
wild flowers, alfalfa blossoms and
fruit and fruit blossoms, and produce
large quantities of honey of the finest
quality, which is of most delicate
flavor. 1t is beautiful to look upon.
It's so white and clear.
Honey is worth ten cents per pound.
Only Il small portion of 1T is
consumed at our local market. The
balance is disposed of at the mining
camps, or graded and shipped away
Only two or three wears ago a
stand of bees would sell for five ool-
lars in the summer time when full of
honey. But nowadays one sells for
half that sum.
1t is very simple thing to get a
start in this line Almost any bee
man will hive young swarm of bees
for fifty cents or a dollar, provided
the box is furnished.
The apiary, like the poultry and
fishing industries, is only in its ex-
detrimental stage in this country.

Likewise consider SO sheep. In
one year the yearling would be worth
50 and the wool from both of them
would probably be worth from 50 to
50 60. The sheep, also, can pay for
herself and the keeping of two.
Although there are losses from
coyotes as well as cold and snow the
increase averages 80 per cent
Stock journals claim there are too
many hogs, too much corn and too
few sheep. 1t is suggested that
people learn to like mutton as beef
becomes high, since it is more health
ful and nurishing than pork
However the cattle and sheep in
dustries may compare, one with the
other, it is sufficient to say that both
are OF vast Importance, not only to
those actually engaged in them, but
to the world at large.
In Weiser it mas become a proverb-
ial saying; 80, he's sheepman, of
course they can afford it, which goes
to prove that the sheep industry in
Washington county is very remuner-
alive.
The Fishery.
The fish industry could be made of
vast importance in this county. Our
mountain streams abound in trout Of
the largest and finest quality. In
our mountain lakes are found the
red fish, which are caught with n
seine and weigh from three to six
ponds.
In the rivers the much priced salmon
abound. There are three kinds of
salmon, viz: The steelhead, or
Columbia river salmon, the Chinook
and the salmon trout The steelhead
and the trout weigh from eight to
twelve pounds. The Chinook weigh
from eighteen to thirty pounds and
few even more.
Salmon are caught with large seines
in large quantities aud shipped both
east and west, while large numbers
are consumed ut our local market.
Last year there were ten or eleven
fisheries along the Snake river on the
border of Washington county, which |
matte catch OF about five thousand !
fish, which sold'at the fishery at three /
and half to five cents per pound.
In the line of bony fish are the /
carp, chuh, whitetish and many others
in great numbers
Last but not least are the sturgeon. |
They are not as large as whales, but
actually, some OF them measure ten
and twelve feet in length and weigh |
as much as a beef when dressed
Their flesh is white, juicy and appe-
uzing if properly cooked. They
have no bones, only sort of gristle
for backbone and ribs They are a
native of our large rivers, and are
caught by hook and line at anv sea
