husband were crossing one of the Euro

The Prolific Queen Bee.

The queen bee is a great antagon-
is Of race suicide. She strives TO
perpetuate the race with an ardor and
an understanding that Is worthy of the
highest commentator. Some have
been known to lay 1000 eggs day for
a year the number lessening after
that to ! 200 and going forward at
that ratio for another two years.
With $4,000 bees to the colony that
single praiseworthy queen laid enough
eggs to establish 46 colonies. Bee
keepers figures on net income or
three dollars a colony each year. If
the owners OF the bee under discus
sion profited from her labors to that
extent the gain was $l4S. 1t Is not
TO be presumed that any such results
were obtained To argue so much in
favor OF one bee would be to place
belief in the statement that man
with ten acres OF ground and two rab-
bits can become a millionaire in three
years selling rabbit skins to glove
manufacturers World

STRANGE CAPTURE OF SALMON
Incident Proves That Belief Of Some
Fishermen Is Wrong.

Fishing a well-known river In Nor
way this June, one of the tenants of
the fishing lodge opposite ours caught
a fish of 20 pounds in the morning and
lost another, his spinning line being
broken by the rush Of heavy fish.
Fishing with prawn the afternoon of
the same day, the same angler, in the
same pool, got into a good fish at his
first cast. After long fight the fish
was gated and landed. Then was re-
vealed a strange state of things. The
praWn tackle had never touched the
fish; in fact the hooks were foot or
more from It, They had caught in the
cast which had been lost that morn
ing and was now twisted into knots
and tangles, no doubt by the salmon
endeavoring to get rid OF the treble
Norsk cast and hooks. The line had
been got rid of. AS the prawn swung
down the pool it had grappled the lost
cast still attached to the salmon, and
fish (33 Pounds, cast, and tackle were
recovered. We watched the incident
from the road, and crossing the river
handled the recovered cast. Many
maintain that salmon once hooked and
played for any length Of time leave the
pool--W H., in London Field.

STORES A NECESSITY.
email Retailers Fixed Permanently -
Factors In Social Life.

There are pessimists who view with
alarm the revolutionary forces at work
in the business world. These people
Of narrow views solemNly announce
that within a few years there will be
no place for the small retailers, that
the so-called country merchant will be
driven out of business, and will be sup
planted by large concerns that will
have the trade which is now divided
among dozen or more small stores.
Some of them 60 so far in their dole
full predictions as to predict that the
business of the country will be trans
acted in the larger cities, and that
the country town shall become
thing Of the past.
These woeful prophets fail to take
into consideration the force OF natural
law in the social and the business
world. They are illogical enough not
to weigh the relationship of economy
to trade conditions. Trade, like light
ming or like water, follows the lines
of least resistance. Citizens and towns
exist upon economic foundations. On
the virgin western plains small col
ony of settlers seek homes. The
wants and necessities Of these set
tiers must be supplied. The result is
the establishment Of store at cen
trail point in the new colony. This
store becomes the nucleus OF town,
city in embryo. AS other settlers
come in, the town grows more impor-
tant, new industries are established,
local government is organized, roads
radAte from the place, banks and
other financial institutions are estab-
lished, and here we have a thriving
town created.
This town exists because there is
necessity for its existence, and this
necessity is the working out OF
economic laws. Wherever communi-
ties exist, tradexmen will exist. They
are necessary part Of the social and
business life. They are necessary
agents In the distribution Of COM
modities. They are the outgrowth
of thousands Of years Of CONNER
cialism, and they cannot be sup.
planted by any other system. Large
stores Of the department kind
may grow up. They are also a neces-
sity and are revolutionary in char
acter, but there will ever remain a
place for the small store. 1t matters
not how large the city or how small
the town.
