Value Of the Busy Bee.

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
an exchange. 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
visitation Of bees not seed was pro-
duced, while 100 heads visited by bees
produced nearly 5000 seeds. When two
varieties Of certain plants are grown in
the same neighborhood there is likeli-
hood of Decentralization, as bees for
age over large territory. 1t will, there
fore, pay the farmer or fruit grower to
keep at least one hive Of bees or en-
courage his neighbor to do so.

ENCOURAGE RIFLE PRACTICE
Plans Of Government officials to Rem
edy Great Defect in the Mil
itary System.

Throughout Elihu Roots long service
as secretary OF war the one subject.
which received his most serious atten-
ton, aside from the operations of the
army in the field, the army reorganiza-
ton act, the general staff scheme and the
national militia project, was the ques-
ton of developing in the mass of Amer
lean citizens body of trained riiemen
large enough to make our drtenses Sc
cure in time of war. In season and out
of season he insisted that the country
needed men who could shoot straight,
who knew the use of the rifle thoroughly
and with whom proficiency in small
arms practice should be the first test of
fitness as soldiers. Mr.. Roots earnest
ness in this matter served as reminder
that whereas we have made but little
real progress in rifle shooting since the
close OF the Spanish war. other coun-
tries are giving close attention to the
subject, Canada alone having but re-
Gently instituted broad-gauge scheme
which it is believed will produce $780,
600 trained rifiemen within ten years.
Owing partly to Mr.. Roots persistent
urging. supported by many other inter-
ested gentlemen in the army, the navy,
the marine corps, the national guard
and civil life, public interest in the sub
ject took form in the organization of the
national board for the promotion of
rifle practice in the United States, and
as result of that movement plans have
been formulated which if carried into
effect seem likely to transform millions
Of hardy young Americans into expert
riaemen and thus correct what is palpa-
bly, the gravest defect in cur military
system.
In preparing these plans careful con-
siGeration was given to the methods
employed by other countries to encour-
age rife shooting among their citizens
and the paramount purpose was to de-
wise system which should make every
American between the ages of Is and Is
years ambitious to become a master
marksman. In its general scope the
scheme provides for highly organized
system to encourage rife practice in the
state militia, in military and other
schools and among private organizations
as we'll as among individuals who would
be liable to military service in time CT
war.
