department has no means of knowing
how long the disease has existed in the

that, if not already informed concern

loss is attributed by the bee keeper to
some other cause. Farmers Bulletin

partnership with w. j. Zuill. In 1898

has continued business under the old
firm name.
Mr.. Dodge continued meanwhile to
manufacture machines under the firm
name of C. A. Dodge & Company, at
No. 1926 West Fayette street, and re-
Gently he has been working on new
designs for air-pressure machines. One
of these was almost completed at the
time of his death. Other stockholders
in the company may continue his work.
