Foul Brood of
Bees in Montana.
BY r. A. Cooley, Entomolosist,
Montana Agricultural College.

= + + /. + + + + + 1. 1. + + !! i. i. i.
During the present summer the
American foul brood has appeared in
apiaries in the Yellowstone and tribu.
cary valleys, and in such destructive
form that it seems desirable to public
ny recognize ito presence and do what
d possible toward checking its prog.
ress. 1t is clear that unless the G:s.
0ase is brought under control it will
seriously affect the apiaries in the in.
Tested districts and gradually extend
60 other localities.
The American foul brood is definitely
known to be caused by a microscopic
organism that Ia carried from colony
60 colony by the adult bees. Doctor
Phillips, an expert in this line. has de-
scribed this disease az follows
when the larvae are first affected
they turn to . light chocolate color,
and in the advanced states Of decay
become darker, resembling roasted
coffee in color. Usually the larvae are
attacked at about the time Of Gaping.
and most OF the cells containing in
@ected larvae are capped. As decay
proceeds these oappings become sunk.
en- and perforated, and, as the healthy
brood ernerges, the comb shows the
scattered cells containing larvae
which have died of disease, still
capped. The mort noticeable charac.
teristic of this infection is the fact
chat when small stick is inserted in
. larvae which has died Of the disease.
and slowly removed. the broken down
tissues adhere to it and will often
Otretch out for several inches before
0reaking. When the larvae dries IL
forms tightly adhering scale Of very
dark brown color, which can best be
observed when the comb Is held 20
chat bright light strikes the lower
side wall. DecayinE larvae which
6ave died Of disease have very char
Acteristic odor which resembles poor
quality Of glue. This disease seldom
attacks drone or queen larvae"
This is a highly infectious disease
and its spread has been likened to
that of typhoid fever in human com.
munities. Honey is generally the
medium in which the disease is car
ried from one colony to another, Just
IS milk and water are frequently re-

oponsible Tor the spread OF typhoid
fever. Over long distances. as from
one state to another. the Infection Is
probably carried in diseased colonies
or by the Introduction of contaminated
nuclei, queen shipping cages, or other
apiary equipment. 1t is possible that
the disease may be introduced by
feeding contaminated honey brought
from an infected locality.
When the disease is discovered in
an apiary, treatment should begin at
once. The most approved method Is
to place q new or sterile hive ON the
old stand. shake" the bees from the.
old. contaminated hive int the fresh
one and remove the old 1pne. The
fresh hives should have strips Of
foundation comb in the frames Old
hives should be renovated before he.
ing put back into use. The frames
should be destroyed since it does not
pay to cleanse them. Honey removed
from contaminated hives should never
be fed back to the bees unless first
thoroughly boiled for about an hour
with an equal amount Of water addec
to prevent burning. The hives afte'
being cleansed and restocked WITH
new frames may be used again. The.
snay be cleansed by burning out Will
oil. Care should be taken to avoiC
scattering bits OF comb from contami
mated hives where bees can get al
them. After handling an infected
colony the tools and hands should be
thoroughly sterilized.
In buying bees the purchaser should
be careful to avoid getting colonies
from apiaries or localities that are
known to be infected.

One Of the candidates. Ezekiel Hicks

him. To the astonishement Of ALL
however. he was defeated.
Il can't account for It," said one Of
the leaders Of Hicks party gloomily.
with that money we should have
won. How did you lay It out, Eze.

"Well." said Ezekiel. slowly pulling

A Glover Hoax That Wss pespetrated
ct Harvard UnivsrsI<y.
Richard Washburn Child. the nov
elist. when at Harvard university was
the originator Of a Joke which has be-
come perpetuated in the university.
The Bookman describes the incident
~ follows:
"While an undergraduate at Har.
ward Mr.. Child happened to be. among
other things. one Of the board Of cdi.
tors Of the I.ampoon. The Crimson.
the Harvard undergraduate daily. had
announced that it would print no cdi
ton on Memorial day, 1901. At Mr..
Child's suggestion the Lampoon issued
q fake number Of the Crimson. deli
catcly enough caricatured to deceive
all but the most observant readers.
THE appearance Of tho college paper
was accurately reproduced. even to
certain typographical errors for which
the Crimson had been notorious. but
the contents were such that the whole
Cambridge community was for time
in turmoil. Information that the jan.
itor of one Of the college laboratories
had upset a jar Of microbes and that
all those who had been near the labO.
ratory should report at once to the COL
leRe doctor: that So-and-so Of the crew
squad had rowed himself out Of his
shell. but had reached shore without
Ill effects. and that the president and
fellows Of Harvard college had de-
cided not to offer President Mckinley
an honorary degree was given with tho
utmost gravity.
"A statement in the fake that the
Crimson was making more money than
was warranted and that $3.50 on all
s. subscriptions would be returned
that afternoon brought many fresh.
men to the Crimson office at the ap.
pointed time. A sign. hung in the
night over the Crimson Office. reiter-
ated this announcement and WAS an
other part Of the hoax. Its complete
success was for long the talk Of Cam
bridge and the forbidden subject Of
conversation in the Crimson sanctum."

The book is handsomely bound and
beautifully illustrated, and is sold ut
the low price of $500.
1t is published by the author who
lives at 1853 Knapp St., st. Paul,
Minnesota.
Prof. Shaw's book represents 30
years of agricultural work and exper-
fence in the Northwest. 1t is one Of
the most valuable books ever publish
ed and every farmer and business man
should have copy. Commercial
clubs should interest the leading far
mers of their community in this book.
''Drv land" IS defined rs any Sec
ton where the rainfall is less than 70
inches per annum.
Prof. Shaw's book will be read with
more interest than the most thrilling
of the "six best sellers" by the farm
ers in the "dry land" areas and by
thousands Of Fasteners who are plan.
ming to come to the Northwest. 1t is
the opinion Of Prof. Shaw and other
agricultural experts that modified
sort Of dry farming" will eventual
ly be used OH all lands not artificial
~ watered or irrigated where the
rainfall is less than 80 inches per an
mum. Even where there is Il heavy
rainfall there occur dry periods in
the late summer-when if the soil
moisture was conservative failure
of crops would be almost unknown.
In the Northwest the dry land" area
extends from Il point west of the Mis-
souri, River to the Cascade Noun
tains. which are barely 100 miles
from the Pacific Ocean.
The "dry land" area extends from
the heart Of Canada south to the in
terror of Mexico and from the Cas-
cade and Sierra Nevada Mountains
east almost to the Mississippi River.
Prof. Shaw's book is the first COM
prehensive book ever written OH dry
farming" and is written in Il plain
and simple manner, readily under
stood by any one. The publication
of this work will be Of special interest
to farmers along the line of the Great
Northern Railway who for years have
read Prof. Shaw's articles on dry
farming. which have been published
in the local newspapers. This work,
carried on by the Great Northern
Railway with the cooperation Of
newspapers, has resulted in millions
of dollars Of agricultural wealth be-
ing added to the Great Northwest.
