Tallahassee. April 5.-The session OF
the Florida legislature which begins
here Tuesday, April s, promises to be
enlivened by a vigorous fight to secure
the calling Of a constitutional conven-
ton, and an active effort on the part
oe the Florida Anti-Saloon league to
secure the adoption of a resolution
providing for an election on a state
wide prohibition amendment to the
constitution. The advocates of a con-
stftutional convention claim the state
has outgrown its present constitution,
adopted in 1885.

upon to act on the proposed amend

Bee culture in Colorado amounts
to an important industry and is
growing rapidly.
Bees in the state to the value OF
100000 produce S250,O0o worth
OF honey a year.
1t is estimated that 1871" Will see
the honey value of the state exceed
100000.
Colorado has $40 days of sun
shine. and the hundreds of thous-
ands of acres OF alfalfa furnish the
bees with a source of material that
results in pure. rich white honey
that brings top prices in markets all
over the country.
Mrs. Dora Phelps Buell. of the I'M
migration department, who makes
a speciality of studying bees. de-
clares that she believes the time is
rapidlv coming when bees will be
one OF the great industries OF the
state
THE cost of engaging in the bee
industry is small, said Mrs. Buell.,
..for colony can be bought for SO,
and after the first few colonies are
secured the increase, without cost,
save for new hives and material, is
large. Bees multiply with surpris-
ing rapidity. Material is at hand
for nine months in the year and in
sufficient quantities to insure an
abundant winter supply.

crowd at the dance ne decided that
there were several present VINO
