IRIINGTON'S Rec QUESTION.
Can the Insects he Declared a Nuisance
and Detrimental to Public Health:

lRvINGroN, y. j.. Sept. ll-Do bees
when kept in a hive close To much trav-
elled thoroughfare constitute nuisance
that il detrimental to public health?
After n careful search for precedents the
local health officials have decided to pa ss
the question up to higher authority
President Jonah Hardgrove and Secretary
Edwin Berry of the local board have
placed the matter before the State Board
Of Health.
The question was brought to the atten-
tion Of the lrvington officials last Thurs
dav night when John Ellington Of Orange
avenue complained that he had been stung
10y n bee while passing along his home
street lie said that two Of his children
had also been stung. Several other resi-
dents of the thoroughfare made similar
complaints II was set forth that AZ least
three residents Of Orange avenue kept
hives Of bees in their gardens. As il was
impossible to tell from whose hives the
guilty insects had come the complain
ants asked that bee keeping in town he
declared to toe detrimental to the health
of the community
Lawyers who have been consulted saw
that the State board has hard problem
before it. IL is pointed out that under the
common law a dog is entitled to one bite.
Ia bee entitled to one sting: is asked
Furthermore, it is asserted that when a
dog bites one or more persons there is
no authority for condemning every dog
in the neighborhood to death or hanish-
ment What is good law for a dog"
the friends of the honey making insects
say, should be good law for bee also"
On the other hand, il is pointed out tina i

CROPS IN CENTRAL NEW YORK.
Rains Have Greatly Improved Them and
a Large Yield Il Promised.

UTICA. Sept. II Reports from various
sections Of the Mohawk Valley and other
points in central New York are to the
effect that farmers are rejoicing greatly
over the crop outlook for late products.
The indications three or four weeks ago
were that many crops would he almost
complete failures. but with the rains that
have come generally during that time
all late crops have improved. and If an
early frost does not work havoc there
will be yield that will surprise and glad
den all. The corn crop has not been a
better one in ten years.
The late potato crop will be large one.
1t is said that in some sections the pota to
yield will he above the normal Along
the St. Lawrence River there is a big
yield of potatoes and in the southern tier
Of counties the crop will be normal, though
the early crop has been disappointing. IL
is not believed that anything like fancy
prices now anticipated will be reached
when il comes 10 harvesting the crop.
The outlook on the apple crop in Central
New York il most promising and prices
will be considerably lower than they were
last year.
Many of the dairymen consider il
strange that the price Of butter and cheese
keeps at the high figures reported. They
say that grass was never better than
now and the cows are giving fine yields.
The flow Of milk is almost as great as
during the very flush season, II is
thought that with a holding on Of frost
the fall supply will be SO large that winter
prices will not 60 to the extreme they
have cached in some recent years
Eggs and poultry will be high all the
fall and winter. In the Mohawk Valley
at least there was a good deal of trouble
about eggs Matching the last season and
the raising of chickens was a serious
thing. II is believed that blasting oper-
atons along the line Of the barge cana
had something to do with the damage
to Matching eggs At any rate. whether
incubators were used or the natural
Matching by hens was tried. the yield OF
chickens has been small in this locality
This will have big effect on the egg ano
poultry market. as the poultry raiscrs
will not want to kill of their old stock anC
there will not he a large number of the
Young fowls coming on for early laying

is an attack on the constitutonality Of
chapter 8D7. Laws Of 1910. known "a the
education law. which abolished school
commissioners and their election by the
people. creating school superintendents,
multiplying offices and uuadrupling eX-
pensas
The law provides that a school superin-

tificate is not obtainable. Rochester and
