A New Strain of Honey Bees.
REYNoLpsvILLE, Pa, June 2

ltE1NOsDSNlLLr, A., Juuo NV'
Reynoldsville is troubled by the little
busy bee. For the last month, ever
since bees have begun TO swarm, they
generally migrate to some neighbor's
back yard and II a liLe full of nice white
clothes are handy, In short time they
need washing. Members OF the town
council have been interviewed on the
matter and the council perhaps will be
induced to take steps toward stopping
1t, as 1t is very annoying to the ones
afflicted by the Industrious bee.-Reyn-
oldsvile correspondent Punxsutawney
Spirit,
The ordinary bees ON their first
cleansing flight after long confinement
In winter or early spring, are liable to
soil objects within so or 100 feet OF their
hives, and without regard to color, but
at other times, and especially In the
swarming season, they will not do this;
and swarm may be wrapped up for
hours In the daintiest linen without 1t
being soiled.
But the bees referred to In the above
clipping are an entirely different strain
OF bees and are procured by cross be-
tween a would-bee reporter and vir-
gin daily newspaper. They will be
known as the Polkadots. This new
strain Of bees promises to revolutionize
bee keeping; more than half OF the bees
In town have already been purchased
by enterprising bee men within week,
With these new bees you can throw
away your swarm catcher, discard all
your non-swarming devices. Abandon
the idea of sometime developing strain
OF non-swarming bees (for bees will
swarm whenever conditions are favor
able), but II you will get in possession Of
these new bees, save your old linen and
window curtains Place your empty
hives In some desirable place, hang up
some white clothes around them. These
bees have such a mania for dotting
white clothes that the absconding
swarms will be attracted by the white
clothes, and after doing justice to the
clothes and finding a new home there
waiting for them, they will enter 1t and
go to work, and you have escaped the
most perplexing part Of bee keeping.
This seems almost too good to be true.
1t may only be another case Of daily
paper In small town being driven to
desperation for want Of manuscript; or
it might be that the editor was so busy
guarding the rest of the capitol build
ing that he overlooked the above ar
ticle. For although some pretty "big
ones" appear in the Spirit at times, THY
are generally labeled In some way.
However, it is claimed by those who
have had experience with these bees
that where the bee keeper is on very
bad terms with his neighbor, these
characteristics are manifest to slight
degree, the more antagonistic the more
perceptible, just like chicken and dog
tracks In the garden. Persons wishing
to test some OF these remarkable bees,
or wishing any Information In regard to
them can address,

"The Teachers Minimum Salary Law"

"The Teachers Minimum Salary Law. v
am informed that in some OF our
neighboring counties that certain
school boards have a determination to
not hire teaches holding professional or
permanent certificates, because OF the
new law fixing their salaries at not less
than $50 per month. In'order to avoid
such possibility In our county ]
present these facts regarding the new
law, to directors and patrons who have
not had access to 1t.
The Law provides first; that teachers
holding provisional certificates shall
receive not less than $40 per month
and second; that teachers having 2
years successful experience, holding a
professional or permanent certificate or
Normal school diploma shall receive
not less than $50 per month.
II also provides that In all cases
where the salary required under this
act is greater than that paid during the
year beginning June /, 1905, the state
will pay the difference. The money to
pay this difference will be taken from
the general appropriation before it is
distributed.
This difference will not be paid until
after the close Of the school year, the
same as has always been the custom re-
garding appropriations. 1t will there.
fore be necessary for the boards to pro-
vide, either by loan or levy, sufficient
money to pay the teachers and this diff
ference will at the close OF the year,
be repaid by the state.
II a position paid 1876 per month last
year aud teacher holding provisional
certificate teaches it this year, the
state will pay the difference between
e35 and $40. II a teacher holding a
higher certificate teaches the same
school the state will pay the difference
between s35 and $50. Hy's
It is clear that the advance required
by law will In reality not hn hardship
on the townships. Instead of avoiding
the professional teachers the boards
should seek them. Each district can
thus have the benefit of the best trained
teachers and without any extra expense
in the end.
do not wish to be understood as ad
vising that good teachers holding pro
visional certificates be turned down
in favor Of those holding higher
grade certificates. l have been prompt
ed to make this statement so that al
boards and patrons might know the pro
visions OF the new law and how the In
crease is to be paid.
School boards are now justified in hir
ing the best teachers they can get with
out regard to the class OF certificate
held. This new law takes effect June
1st, 1907.

and only the immediate members OF the
family knew during the last few days
that the shadow OF death was darkening
their home.

residents OF the Grove Summit district

section. He was born In Philadelphia
