 Three hundred billion bees maoe enough honey last year to fill train or cars long enough to reach from New York to -uffalo.

 Not only did the little workers contrib ute that vast supply of a pure ana de- licious food product to the nation put as they made it they treated IL anl- septically with fornic and thus prevent ing impurities or decay.
 In one year the bee hives sent to mar ket a product worth nearly as much as the barley crop three times as much IS the buckwheat crop; $6,W0,OOO greater than the rye crop and nearly $9,000,000 greater than the rice crop. All of the rice and buckwheat grown on an aggre- gated area of 2126h square miles did not reach to the value of the honey by $151, 259.

what One American has
Done for China.

In a recent address in Nashville,
Tenn, Mr.. VIM. T. Ellis, the
noted journalist and war cores
pendent, who has just returned to
this country from a trip around the
world, made the following remark:
Another remar kable fact is that a
Southern man is responsible,
above all others, for the extra
ordinary anti-opium movement,
which is China's greatest reform.
1t may be news to Americans
that for many years past Rev. DR..
H. c. DuBose, a missionary of
the Southern Presbyterian church,
stationed at Soochow, has been
the head aud front of the anti
opium agitation. He stuck to the
fight with logged persistence dur
ing years when men assured him
that his efforts were hopeless, and
people generally called him a
fanatic. With amazing resource
fulness and unlimited good nature,
he kept plugging away, making
both the yellow world and the
white world take notice of his
proposition that there could be no
future for China so long as she
remained drugged by opium. Now
the Chinese government itself, by
imperial edict has ordered the en-
tire suppression OF traffic in and
use of opium, which strikes me as
a monumental success for one
modest missionary"
Kew. DR.. DuBose of China is
the father of the pastor of the
Presbyterian churce of our city,
who will deliver, by request, a
lecture upon the subject OF
China: Past, Present and Flu.
