ANTI-SMOKE AGITATION.
Baltimore Is Having a Season of CRU
sade Against BIackness.
Baltimore Herald.


The crusade against the smoke that is
sent forth from the hundreds of CHM
neys is along a line of general improve
ment of conditions, but certainly upon in
vesugatIon would seem to have been drawn
with too great zeal. While the sentiment
that produced ii is undoubtedly praise
worthy and usually productive of results
heartily favored and forwarded by the
Morning Herald, it has in this instance
failed to consider the interests of manufac-
turing concerns sufficiently Though the
throwing out of dense clouds of offensive
smoke must eventually cease entirely and
should even now be reasonably curtailed
the provisions of the present bill do not
allow sufficient time for the expensive
changes that must be made, nor differen-
tate between the relative degrees of dam
age resulting from various chimneys
1t cannot but be admitted that our city
compares most favorably with other NUM-
cipalities whose wealth is largely employed
in manufacturing, in so far as the smoke
nuisance is concerned. With a graduated
arrangement of reducing the smoke that
now exists and a careful study of the CITY
so as TO discover those shafts that are
especially annoying. il would be possibIe
to abate a great proportion of the trouble
without laying down hard and fast rul-
ing that applies without discriminati ton

manufacturing or other plants is referred

be secured through the most perfected
mechanism. This has already been done
by a great majority Of the large firms and
the whole weight of the bill will be thrown
upon the smaller producers. who are al
ready complaining vigorously Of the
difficulties experienced in sustaining the
competition OF enormous capital.
The Legislature should pause before add
ing an additional expense TO the burdens
of the small manufacturer, whose mum hers
are greater than one would believe with
out special investigation. Since the less
ening of the smoke really means a more
economical production Of the power through
a more thorough combustion of fuel the
big manufacturers when building or remov
ing furnaces invariably secure the mechan-
ical shakers and stokers that get out all
there is in the coal and leave little or moth

will be gradually solved In q comparatively

AS your young stock grows, select
from all the broods the very finest,
strongest and most vigorous pullets
to keep for winter layers. Size,

do with egg production that one
should study this continually in the

Save all such for your own use; never
part with them unless you have more
than you need. After they are select

eye and select from all these the very
best egg producers to lay the eggs
from which you will grow your future
stock, and gradually you will gain in

THE FINDING OF HONEY.
A Question That Has Engaged the
Attention of Learned Jurists
for . Long Time.

Writing on laws relating to the find
ing of honey, r. D. Fisher in Clean
ings says: There was sort of code
among bee-hunters in the earlier days
of this country, and is said to have
been generally observed. 1t was to
the effect that when bee tree was
located and marked with the initials
of the finder, his rights were prima
facie, and zealously observed. But
this code did not hold good in law,
especially against those holding an in
terest in the land.
eff a person finds bee-tree contain
ing honey, or a hive of bees on an
others land, and marks it at once with
his initials, he does not reclaim the
bees and vest the exclusive property of
the bees or honey in himself. as
against one of the heirs having an in
terest in the land; nor does he acquire
lie right to bring in the courts the
usual action of trespass against the
heir for cutting down the tree and car
rying away the bees and honey" says
he New York supreme court in the
case of Gillet VS.. Mason.
An early and noted case is reported
IN (Root) Conn. Goodwin sued Mer-
rill for cutting down tree in the
forest that had swarm of bees in it,
md taking the honey which he Good
vin) had previously discovered. Mer-
ill plead that said bees were swarm
rom his hive; that he had frequent
y 'lined" them to near said tree, and
hat said bees were his property. The
plaintiff replied that he found them
wild in the woods, and had good right
to take them. The trial court gave the
plaintiff judgment of 80 shillings dam
age.
The supreme court reversed this
Judgment, and said: ga mans find
ing bees in tree standing upon an
other mans land gives him no right
either to the tree or bees; and a
swarm of bees going from hive, if
they can be followed and known, are
not lost to the owner, but may be re.
claimed.'
AS early as 1904 the New Hampshire
supreme court held that one who finds
swarm of bees in tree on another's
| land, marks the tree with his initials
and notifies the land owner, cannot
maintain trover against the land own
| er for the bees and honey which h.
| obtained and converted to his own use
by telling the tree.
