Fighting the Bee-Moth

1t often happens when a hive
casts one or more swarms and
fails to requiem properly, leaving
the bees hopelessly queenless and
few in numbers, that moths clean
up the combs before the owner is
even aware of their presence. In
cases of this kind, there is one
hopeful plan only, and that is to
get Italian bees, by requeening.
This race of bees will simply not
tolerate moths in their hives, if
where they can get at them.
Langstroth says, That Eat a low
estimate, one female moth will
lay 200 eggs in a hive, and the
second generation will count into
thousands and the third will ex-
coed a million" The same au-
thority says the larvae have been
known to spin their cocoon and
hatch in from ten to eleven days
in warm weather; so we see that
when once started they make
quick work. All moth-traps or
moth-proof hives are simply
frauds, as where a bee can go a
moth can also go. Follow the
Golden Rule" discard the too
small hives; allow no swarming, or
at least not more than one swarm
per hive; see that the old hive
raises a queen, and that she gets
to laying all right. Italianize and
you will have nothing to fear
from the bee-moth, or, more prop
erly, wax-moth.

SAVANNAH, Ga, Dec. 11.-Savannah
has suffragette who is making the
staid old town sit up and take notice.
She is Miss Evelyn NoraGon, of Cleve-
land, by way of South Carolina. That
she comes to Savannah after having
taken a look over Governor Blease's
state and decided that it's politics could
be much improved by letting women
vote
She is going back to Carolina when
the legislature meets and endeavor to
have a bill passed giving women the
right to vote and hold office. Meanwhile
she is giving Savannah a good time.
She has begun with the wOmen's clubs
and between time converts the men.
She has already a good start on the
bachelors of the city-for be it known
that Miss NoraGon is a most attractive
suffragette.
Next week she will begin placarding
them with buttons showing that they
just dote on having women vote.
Yesterday she agreed with DR.. w. l..
Pickard, of the First Baptist church
who hazarded the opinion that a woman
could be a sufrragette and a Christian
at the same time
Miss NorsGon denies the statement
of a Chicago suffragette that man has
any monopoly Of the Bible and religion
and fails to see where men have any
thing on women so far as the Bible Is
concerned.

PARCELS POST SYSTEM
IS NIGHTMARE TO EXPRESS
lRx Assooiated Press.l

NEW YORK, Dec 10.-The executive
officers of the big express companies
are watching the preparations for the
parcels post system with great inter-
est. They frankly confess that they do
not know what effect it will have on
their business.
In october last the interstate COM
merce commission gave a hearing to the
representatives of the companies so
that they might show reasons, If they
could, why the express rates should not
be reduced. Lawyer Walter D. Hines,
for the companies, said that il would not
be fair TO compel the companies to cut
rates on the eve Of the Inauguration
Of the new parcels post system, which
might materially reduce the business
Of the companies. Final action was post
poned pending further hearings.
ut seemed TO us TO be manifestly un-
fair to compel us to change our rates
at the time when the government had
practically put a powerful competitor in
the field against us" said Mr.. Hines to-
day.
THE fact is that we do not know
what effect the new parcels post will
have on the business of the express
companies. Nor will we know for a long
time. The ifew postal arrangement may
hurt US or il may have an entirely diff
ferent effect.
ut may be that the parcels post will
create it's own business and leave the
express companies in just about the
same position as they are now. At the
outset a decided change may be no
ticed, but in a short time the new con-
ditions will adjust themselves"
Democratic Leader Underwood had eX-
pected 10 lay the hearing schedule be-
fore the full committee today but de-
ferred il until tomorrow morning, when
the entire committee is expected to
ratify the program The dates will then
be officially announced for the hearings
on each schedule of the tariff.
