PROFIT IN REEKEEpINo.
Ne OAher Auxiliary Farm Industry
Pays better Returns In Dollars
or In Enjoyment.

The inquiry of how much profit there
is in bees is of frequent occurrence.
The lack of knowledge in handling bees
and the value of the bee as a money
producer is astonishing. Very few
persons know whether a hive of
bees will produce q dollars worth
of honey in a season or $40 worth.
Mrs. Gertrude Vandergen, in a recent
number of Farm, Stock and Home, in
discoursing ON this subject, says that
the bees will pay 100 per cent. on the
money, time and labor invested in
handling them. If had the persuasive
power, says Mrs. Vandergen, l would
go to every farm, and if in some shady
nook I did not find the little indus
trious bees working for their owner
while they boarded themselves, would
go to the master of the farm and tell
him how my husband bought two col
onies for me in the autumn, and how
they gave me 145 pounds of honey.
For what l sold of this honey l got
Is cents a pound, but for what we
kept and consumed in the family, we
got more than that in health, gratifca-
tion of the appetite and other enjoy
ment.
The next summer took two colonies
out of the cellar. They were very
strong; from these ten swarms were
hived. valued at an average of two
dollars each; 165 pounds of honey
were produced, which sold at an aver
age of II cents Il pound. Ignorance,
poor hives, moth-miller, and robber
bees spoiled five of the weaker colonies.
Three / doubled up: this left four ex-
ira strong colonies worth at least four
dollars each. Now, do you think the
bees paid for the nectar they slipped
out of the white clover of the pasture,
artichokes and vine flowers? Could
we have sold it to any purchaser for
SO much?
l am positive that if one had only
money enough to purchase one acre
Of land and seed it with clover and
buckwheat. plant some fruit and
basswood trees, then purchase few
colonies of bees in the fall when they
are cheap, in few years he or he
would realize a fine return from the
investment.

CHARITY AND TRUST PROFITS.
The MOrgans and Rockefeller Can
Well Afford to DO Some thing
Cor the People.

The Standard Oil company notified
it's customers, December 10, that it
had advanced the price of oil another
cent per gallon. This is an increase
of 3h cents since the beginning Of
the coal strike.
On December IL, Commander Booth
Tucker, of the Salvation Army, got .
promise, by telephone, from J. Pier
pont Morgan that he would do all in
his power to aid the Saliva ton Army
to supply the poor with coal. The
army is holding meetings ON the COR
ners in the tenement section of New
York, for the purpose of giving in
structions as to how to use porous
bricks, which may be saturated with
kerosene or petroleum and used for
heating purposes instead of coal.
Morgan controls the coal and Rock
efeller the oil trust. Each profits by
the others monopoly of high prices.
The prices of both coal and oil will
average 40 to 60 per cent. higher this
than last year. There is almost no
limit to the price which these coal
and oil barons could obtain in win
ter for these earth commodities.
Their monopoly is now complete
enough, but they fear the wrath ,)f
the people too much to double prices
at once. They welcomed the coal
strike because it accustomed the peo-
pie to higher prices.
The 3Hs cents per gallon advance
in the price of oil means 5000, 900
OF extra profits to the trust, which
paid dividends last year of s,OOO,O 600.
The So so or three dollars per ton ad-
vance in the price of coal means $685.
100000 or $15O,O0O,OO a year to the
coal trust.
1t pays to be divine holder of the
coal and oil properties of this coun-
try, even if part of the profits OF
the business are given as charity, to
the poor to help them to keep warm.
II little given in this way will keep
the people quiet. while the trusts
put on the screws and add another
cent per gallon or another so cents
per bushel, it is a good investment.
We are at their mercy, and they are
merciful unto us. There is no law
to compel them to give dollar Of
their profits to charity. They just
give out of the goodness of their
hearts. We may be thankful that
such wise and good agents are put in
charge of the coal and oil mines of
this bountiful earth.

The Talking Man.

In his speeches last summer. which,
it will be remembered, were brought
to a sudden end for various reasons,
President Roosevelt made a good
many people believe that he was likely
to attack the monopoly tariff and
trusts and enter upon a vigorous and
sensational foreign policy without
waiting for the aid or consent of con-
gress or anybody else. His message
repeated few of the rhetorical -four
ishes of these addresses, but the thun-
der was all in the index. When it came
to politics he had none, and as for
recommendations he did not make
bold to submit any that need cause
nervousness in protected and trusted
circles. It is plain enough that the
privileged moneyed men of Mr.. Roose-
velt's party conveyed certain intima-
tions to him on the subject of tariffs
and trusts which caused him to relax
his strenuosity in that direction most
emphatically. Is it possible that Eng
land and Germany have sized up his
vigorous foreign policy in the same

come under a protective tariff, for we
have always had a protective tariff.
The panics of 1879 and 1927 were
coincident with the highest of high

were more protracted than that OF

NOTHING BUT A FARCE.
Not the Slightest Intention Among
Republicans of Proceeding
Against the Trusts.

Republican newspapers which are en-
gagged in the business of kicking holes
in the Littlefeld ''publicity" bill and
the Cullom antitrust bill may as we'll
save their strength. There is not the
remotest intention that either bill
should pass. Congress may as we'll
amuse itself with these farces as to
stage some other. But the republican
ma jority really ought, in Difference to
the proprieties, to keep straight face
in public, and laugh in private, as the
dear people are likely to near of the
satirical, fun-poking comments which
are openly made by leading republi-
cans whenever the subjec is broached
in or about the national halls of legis-
lation, says the Albany Argus.
There are men, even in congress,
who believe that the time has come
when the eNactiors of monorolies, and
their frank Indifference to the rights
and comfort of the masses. ought to
be dealt with by legislation. These
men honestly believed that there was
some prospect of relief in the Little
field bill. They have examine it, and
to their regret they find that it is mot
a trust-kijler, but only timekiller."
1t is candidly admitted nov that this
much paraded administration measure
contains not one solitary provision
which is not incorporated in existing
laws. The Sherman antitrust, take it
as a whole, is better and a more ef-
fective statute than the Littlefield bill
would be. The publicity" features of
the pending bill are covered by exist
ing, state laws.
Mr.. Littlefield is chairman of the
subcommittee of five which is sup
posed to deal directly with this SUBJ
ject; but the subcommittee must re-
port to the house committee on the
judiciary, whose chairman, Mr.. Jen-
kins, of Wisconsin-another alleged
trust-buster of renown-is frankly
committed to the scheme of constitu-
tional amendment, which would take
six years or more, and which, when
President Roosevelt proposed it, was
laughed out of court.
Meanwhile the direct, effective and
natural means of curbing the trusts,
by abolishing the tariff schedules
which shelter monopolies. is rejected
by all the r@ republicans alike, with sus-
picious and enlightening unanimity.
