CALL FOR OUR BUMBLEBEEs.
Eilipinos Need Their Long Tongues to

Fructify Clover Fields.
| A wild clamor comes from the Phil
| ippines for colony of American bum
blebees, says Washington special to
| the New York World. The Filipino
farmer declares these insects are in
dispensable in his business. lie wants
to raise red and white clover. and il
cannot be successfully done without
| the bumblebee.
| Scientific sharps at the department
of agriculture assert that the honey
bee and all kinds of oriental bees have
been carried to the Philippines. but all
of them leave clover alone. The scien-
| lists explain that these bees have short
| tongues. They are unable to reach the
! honey I'm the clover blossom. They
| realize this inability and pass II by.
The American bumblebee has long
tongue and likes to dig down in a
| juicy clover blossom. As conse-
quence there is nothing that can make
the clover crop of the Philippines a
success except the American variety
of bumblebee.
The wall of distress from the Fill
pino farmer has been needed. The first
shipment of bumblebees viii consist OF
900. These will be carefully selected
with reference TO long tongues. The
bureau OF entomology of the agricul-
tural department is charged with the
duty of seizing the bumblebees on
their native heath and arranging for
their transportation. Agents of the
bureau have been In Ohio and Kansas
| busily chasing bumblebees.
The bees will travel in two ''queen''

be placed in each basket The baskets
will be set in refrigerator boxes. This

winter has come. and they will go i'm

Two Filipino students who have been
in the United States securing points on

at Cincinnati and another at Manhat-

The two students will soon sail

Discovery of Pear Tree Which Pro-

Discovery of Pear Tree Which Pro-
duces Fruit Without Cores.
A tree OF seedless pears has been
discovered by A. |. Mason on his fruit
ranch near Hood River, Ore, says the
Portland Oregonian. All attempts so
far to arrive at its variety have prov
ed futile, but authorities on the sub
ject say that il 1t continues to propa-
gate seedless and coreless pears it win
form the nucleus of one of the most
valuable canning pears known. Being
without cores or seeds, there will be
no waste in putting 1t up. and its size
and fine quality, combined with the
lateness with which it comes into
bearing. bring 1t In between the sum
mer and late winter varieties When
ripe it is said by Mr.. Mason to be Of
finer quality than the Bartlett and a
much better fruit for all around pur-
poses.
The owner OF the new discovery ac-
counts for not knowing its variety by
the fact that several years ago he
bought large consignment OF nurs-
cry stock from dealer who he aft
erward discovered had not sold him
trees true to name. Altogether there
were six boxes OF fruit on the tree, In
none OF which could be found seed or
core or any indication OF one except a
slight mark around where the core
should be and which became visible
after the fruit had been cut In two for
some time.
