THE BEE INDUSTRY.
Its Life Threatened - Foul

Jefferson City, Mo, Oct G.
The bee industry in Missouri will
be wiped out in few years, ac-
cording to NJ. +. Darby, apiary
Inspector, unless more assistance
is given by the state in stamping
out the spread of foul breed, ~
which already affects the bees in
thirty-onc counties of Missouri.
He inspected during 1912, ac-
cording to his report to the State
Board of Agriculture $500 col
onieS of bees and found 10 per
cent were affected with foul
brood. This is very destructive
TO bees and must be eradicatcd if
the industry is to prosper in this
state.
Darby says the field of bee in
Spcction in Missouri is entirely
100 large for one man. He recon-
mcndS the creation of u few
dcputyships to handle the field
work, leaving the inspector free
