COMBINING BEES AND FRUIT
Honey Gatherers Add Materially to
Fertility of Berries and Fruits
by Pollen Distribution.

(By ID. w. OTIS)
The ideal fruit-farm, with its or
chards of apples, cherries, pears, and
plums, its shade-trees and its gardens,
is hardly complete without at least a
few stands of bees. Properly man
aged they will not only add to the
profits of their owner, but supply his
table with an abundance of the most
luxurious of all delicacies; and add
materially to the fertility of his ber-
ries and fruits by the pollen-distrib
uting habits that these insects pos
sess
This important feature, however, is
generally omitted, or carried on In
such way as to result in very little
profit and great deal of trouble;
and usually results in failure in the
end; and this in face OF the fact that
1t might easily be made one of the
most profitable and fascinating of the
fruit-grower's occupations

AUTHOR MAY FACE
HERESY CHARGES
Churchman Pictures Christ
as Labor Agitator.

New York, Nov. A-Reports of i'm
pending heresy charges have followed
the publication of a book on the life of
Christ by Bouck White, superintendent
of the Trinity Church, and a member of
the staff of the Church of the Holy
Trinity, Brooklyn, in which the Saviour
is pictured as labor leader of His time
and the established ideas underlying
Christianity are reversed. The cover OF
the book bears words of commentator
by the Rev. DR.. John Howard Melish,
rector of the church, and in the Trinity
parish News of November is an article
by DIR. Melish, in which he urges every
one interested in the religion Of Christ
to read the book. The title is THE Call
of the Carpenter"
Il have endeavored to prove that in
the ancient world there was a system
at work, a counterpart of the system OF
to-day, and that Christ, the leader OF
the opposition of that system, the leader
of the working classes, was murdered
by the system" is the authors descrip-
ton of his work.
Jesus was a working man, and when
the Roman empire and industrial despot-
ism extended itself to Palestine, Jesus
the working man, arose in protest against
1t, and his life was a life of agitation
against the system. The system was the
same then that it is to-day. He was an
agftator, and the charge brought against
Him before PLATE was that He stirreth
up the people and He was convicted and
put to death because Of His agitation.
Jesus, the day laborer, surrounded
Himself with twelve other workIngmen,
and His message, the Sermon on the
Mount, was an inflammatory manifesto,
In this book 1 prove it. I prove that
Jesus did not preach nonresistance. He
was a believer in militant democracy.
My contention is that Jesus was kid
mapped at midnight in the garden by the
system, and He was put to death early in
the morning before the wage-earners and
common people were awake to assist
Him.
