Fire and Tornado Insurance an I'm
portant Feature In Kansas.
In various states different phases Of
grange activity are emphasized. In
Kansas the Patrons fire and tornado
insurance stands well to the front. On
Dec. 1. 1909, the total risks carried

cost of insurance per $1,000 was $2.41,
the highest for many years. Among
the things the Kansas state grange
would like to see accomplished are
these: Establishment of the office Of
state fire marshal, the teaching of the

domestic science In all consolidated ru-
raj schools. placing all state wide utili-

State Master Stetscn opened the an
nual meeting of the Maine state grange
with a notably important address In
which he emphasized the need Of "a
fine, strong, abiding sense Of personal
responsibility Of all members in order
to achieve the highest success In
grange work" He hit the present
caucus methods of the political parties
a hard rap. The people should take
this matter of nominating candidates
for public office into their W hands.
I'VE may continue to ratify party
nominations made by the bosses or we
may control the elections" he said.
I'VE will choose the latter alternative
when we come to a real1z1ng q oi
our power and duty"
Resolutions were adopted on a va
riety Of subjects, but those OF wider
Importance were the following: Oppos-
ing the reduction Of the import duty
on sweet cream from 5 cents per
pound to 5 cents per gallon; opposition
was expressed to the repeal Of the
law which places a tax Of 10 cents on
oleo colored In imitation of butter;
parcels post was favored; the price OF
2h cents for corr sold to corn pack
ing companies was demanded for b
1910 crop; it was recommended that
the masters address and officers re-
ports be discussed in the various sub
ordinate oranges, and the Maine
grange favored proportional represen-
tRtion in the national grange.
We quote from a Bangor paper on
this point, which says: 1.-THE report Of
the committee on the good OF the Or
der embodied In that report the princ1-
pie which the largest Of the state
oranges have endeavored unsuccess-
fully to get before the national grange
representation according to size or
number Of members. The attitude OF
the national grange in this matter and
the disposition to retain In the Offices
the men who have held them for so
long and who are accused Of running
affairs of that organization according
to their own liking regardless Of the
consequences to the Order In general
have been severely criticised, and a
resolution was passed at this session
unfolding the attitude Of G. 8. Stetson
when a delegate to the national grange.
The officers Of the national grange
have a paper which supports their po-
sition in all matters and receives a
large amount Of money from the ma
tional grange treasury each year. In
the state Of Michigan, also in the in
surgent list, there is published a paper
which does not support those officers,
and at the last day Of the Maine state
grange meeting this paper was adopted
as the official organ Of the Maine
grange.
Secretary e. q. Libby reported for
the year ended Oct. 1, 1909, that there
were 433 oranges in the state with &c.
$50 paid up members. S~eventy-One
oranges have a membership Of over
200 each, Houlton grange leading with
1000. The receipts Of the secretary's
Office were $12,116.10, and the balance
In the treasury is $5.511.91.

Bee Notes.

There is good evidence that a
swarm Of bees may travel 46 to so
miles. Two swarms are reported to
have crossed Lake Erie at those dis
tances respectively
Beekeepers diner in opinion as to
the desirability of shade over the
hives. This difference may be ex-
planned by supposing that it makes
but little difference one way or the
other.
First class beekeepers bewail the
swarming tendency. and Dr. C. C.
Miller, of Illinois, has almost elimi-
mated it by special selection. Car.
ried through several generations spe-
cial selections will do most anything
We have two Lives this season
with oilcloth on II of the frames and

the hive that t. bees could not seNl
the cover Some prefer this plan but
we are better impressed with the
sealed cover.
Fearlessness and painstaking gen.
tleness are requisites in the success
full handling OF bees. By thoroughly
frightening the bees with smoke in
the hive and then shaking them
off the frames into dish-pan where
they are tumbled together IN confu-
sion, an expert may gently schoop
them up in his ands before an audi
ence and pour them on his bare arms
and head without harm. g. tier not try

Honey and Money

In the first place the honey bees
are of far more value to the farmer
than they are created with. They
are worth more as pollenizers for all
clovers than the humble bee. | have
seen them on the first crop when |
was cutting it for hay and II it is dry
and the supply of blossoms short for
the seed crop they will work on that
as much as the humble bee, writes J.
c. in bee journal For ii fruit crop
they can't be beat They commence
with the first blossoms on the peach,
cherry, apple, raspberry. blackberry,
and in fact with all kinds of fruit
have ever seen them gathering pol.
len on the corn tassels.
Besides being good pollenzers, they
are as profitable in the way Of money
as almost any other stock. consider
ing the amount cost of outlay. Once
you get your hives. with proper care
they are no more trouble. only the
time to get .hD honey | prepare for
wintering. | generally keep twelve
colonies. They furnish us with honey
three times 4 day the year round, and
on an average get about $50 to $35
per year, which is the easiest money
/ get during the year. We can learn
valuable lesson by watching them
in the way of industry. OF course
they may eat some grapes, but there
are more grapes rot on the vines than
the bees destroy, so | don't consider
1t much loss after all Some people
are afraid Of the Jees, but If you get
good Italians and behave properly, it
ic very seldom they will sting. for
one would much rather rob the bees
than some people ana run the risk of
getting hurt. find my bees are
much easier to handle at extracting
times than most others are. All
farmers ought to keep enough bees to
furnish them with honey the year
round. 1t is one Of the most valuable
articles that goes t. the table. There
are many things. too numerous to
mention, that are of value TO us all
In the ..oney lee 30 keep a few
colonies, and have all the honey the
children can eat It is more health
