associations.
3. The president, vice president, sec
rotary and treasurer shall constitute
the executive committee for the trans
action of business during the time be-
tween the annual meetings.
ARTICLE ".
L The executive committee shall
have the power to fill vacancies which
may occur in it for any cause, until
the next annual meeting.
ARTICLE V.
L. This constitution may be amended
after a thorough discussion at any an
nual meeting by majority vote of all
members voting, providing the member
offer1ng the amendment shall submit the
same in writing for the considera ton of
the association.
During the intermission which followed
the appointment of the committee to
draw I'D the constitution the time was
given over to the discussion of touics
pertaining to bee culture. The two
most important topics were discussed
by President Bohrer. He said:
"One of the most discouraging things
that bee keeper has to contend with
is the adulteration of glucose with
honey by men who are endeavoring to
undermine the bee keeping business by
putting a substitute for honey on the
market. In most of the eastern states
as I understand it, there is law pro-
hibiting this practice but in this coun-
try it is done with impunity. There is
nothing that discourages a bee keeper
more than this kind of opposition. He
does not feel like half trying and not
until it has been stopped will bee cul-
ture be what it should be. The proper
remedy for this, I think, would be to
secure such legislation as would compel
these men to discontinue the practice
altogether or else label their product
as that which it really is"
"AnOther Ufa ctice which is equally dis
couraging to bee keepers is that which
a great many Kansas farmers have of
ton to prevent insects and other pests
from destroying the buds. This has been
made the subject OF many papers and ad-
dresses at annual meetings of horticultu-
raj and bee keepers associations, but as
far know no good has ever come OF
these discussions. l should think, now
ever, that with the cooperation of the
state horticultural society this trouble
could finally be done away with. You
not spray your fruit trees while they are
in bloom you will never have any trouble
with your bees. The time to spray fruit
trees is just before they bloom and just
afterwards.
ton, which began at 8 o'clock; larger
number of people were in attendance than
in the afternoon. Many people who We're
not members of the association, but were
interested in bee culture, were present,
and a great many wOmen-wives of mem
bers-were to be seen in the audience. AT
this meeting most of the time was given
over to the discussion of the details of
bee culture. The following is the pro-
gramme of the evening:
I. Prayer by Rev. Emerson Taylor Alb
bolt, ST. Joseph, Mo.
II Discussion of following topics:
l. Hives and supplies for both profess
sional and amateur bee keepers.

PRIZES OF THE BRITISH BAR.
High Salaries and Large Fortunes Are
the Rule.

High Salaries and Large Fortunes Are
the Rule.
The Lord High Chancellor of Great
Britain is second only in position to
the Archbishop of Canterbury, and he
enjoys an income of 10000 a year.
The Lord Chief Justice of England has
a salary of $4,000 a year. The Mas
ter of the Rolls has a salary of $4,000
a year, and the Lords of Appeal in Or
binary have the same. The lord jus
tees of the Court of Appeal and the
judges of the High Court earn $4,000
a year each. The masters of the High
Court are chosen either from barris-
tiers or from solicitors, but all the
other officeholders to whom we have
alluded must have come from the bar.
The Attorney General makes much
more money than any of these digni-
taries. His salary is only $1,000, but
he has fees as well, sometimes to a
very large amount. The Solicitor GEN
eral has $4,000 a year besides his
fees. OF course, the double work, le-
gal and parliamentary, which these
officers have TO undertake is most ar
duous, requiring an iron constitution
and mind that requires but little
time for rest. The private practition-
ers in some few cases make larger in
comes than any Of the oflcial persons
at the bar. 1t is not, indeed, many
who make salaries of five figures, but
there may be always one or two lead
ers who are achieving this. The lead
ers who are chiefly before the public
in ordinary cases do not often make
more than from $4,000 to $4,000 =
year. Larger fortunes are frequently
made by men who specialize in pat
emit cases, who are engaged in rating
appeals and compensation work, or
who practice their profession at the
parliamentary bar.-Cornhill Maya
