lives on a farm near Fulton, is dead of

running to watering trough, i'm

Bees and Alfalfa

Alfalfa honey is white and clear in an
extremely delicate comb. has a delicious
flavor and an aroma that is delightful.
One authentic report tells Of a single hive
that contained nearly 200 pounds and Of
another having ninety-six pounds. The
owner Of these bees had twenty FIVE acres
of alfalfa which in one year yielded over
100 tons of choice hay. besides the honey.
The next year he increased his apiary to
Fifty stands While the average yield down
east varies from fifteen to thirty pounds
our alfalfa territory often gets more. Thus
the financial returns Of alfalfa may be
greatly increased and in some instances
doubled by having two colonies of bees to
each acre. Or IL only part of the alfalfa
rasers in a neighborhood keep bees. this
ratio could be doubled or trebled by those
who do. Unlike other trespassers on neigh
oors' fields the bees do distinct favor by
fertillzing the alfalfa.

Depositors Protest Against Short
ening His Sentence


A Denver dispatch on Tuesday evening
said: "E. J. Smith. the former cashier Of
the Rocky Ford State bank. was not
given a eommutation Of sentence by the
state board OF pardons today. Instead.
his application was continued until the
next meeting. because the board wants to
ascertain what acton will be taken with
relation to President Godding. when he
is released June 2z. Just before the
board met lergthy petition signed by
about $50 Of the small depositors OF the
bank came by mail. protesting against
the Communication OF Mr.. Smiths sentence.
The petition stated that Mr.. Godding was
to be rearrested and prosecuted immedi-
ately upon his release. and that the sign
ers did not believe that either Godding or
Smith had served a sufficient timo to
satisfy the ends Of justice.
With this petition before l.. the board
concluded that it was better to await de-
velopments than to pardon Smith or even
to grant him parole at the present time.
II Good ng is rearrested and prosecuted
TIE chances are that Smith will continue
to serve until his sentence expires.

is touring the sugar beet sections Of the
Unitod States with a view Of learning

is also an interested student Of other
things in America. A free publis library

pressed with finding in our small library
the shelf Of books known as Little

tinusd to view the people Of every other
nation as aliens and enemies.
