Root Company
Seeks Bee Land

When the A. I. Root Co. take a
new departure in their business, it is
not until after long and painstaking
deliberation, based upon expert know
ledge covering very many years.
For some time this great concern
has been practicing migratory bee
keeping, moving bees from Medina to
Florida and then back again after
making increase. Recently this comp
any brought back from the south the
equivalent of about 900 colonies. Of
this enormous amount about one
third remains, the balance having
been sold for nuclei and in pound
packages. According to the current
number of Gleanings in Bee Culture,
at the above rate the company will
not have hundred colonies left. In
this case they declare they will have
serious problem 20 solve in gaining
sufficient increase to send another carr
load south again, Should they decide
20 do so. \ ~
Within the past few weekssmembers
If the company have been securing
me country in automobiles in quest Of
bee-pasturage. At one place, near
Akron, they discovered swampland
where the owner, a bee man, declared
he could make increase after the main
honey flow was over, and for but very
little expense. The A. I. Root Co.
purchased hundred colonies Of this
man, and the bees will left there to
double in that location until removed
to Medina . 7
Knowing of the above mentioned
swamp, the Root Co. had been some
what curious to know what the swamp
contained that should make it so
thrifty place for bees. Consequent
ly they enlisted the services of DR.. c.
D. Freeman, local botanist, and in
company also with Probate Judge
Kennan, the latter neither bee man
nor botanist, but withal an able
Judge and good fellow, visited the
Akron swamp. 1t proved to be al
most impenetrable and, acting upon
the belief that what was found on the
outer edges Of the swamp would prob.
ably be found at the interior, the par
ty contented themselves with an ex-
ploration Of the hundreds Of acres OF
waste land thereabouts.
On this waste land which, accord
ing to the account of the trip in
Gleanings in Bee Culture, cannot be
used even for COW pasturage, was
found, however, number Of we'll
known honey plants, recognized by
DR.. Freeman.
First" says Gleanings, " there was
the familiar clover on the upland.
Then came the common milkweed,
But what attracted our attention par
ticularly on one of these incursions
was a mass Of snowy red blossoms
that were distributed over small
patches here and there over the
swamp land. DR.. Freeman identified
this as swamp milkweed (Asclepias
incarnata). The bees were busily at
work on it--hundreds and hundred,
of them. Then we found other hun
dreds busy on the blue verbena, some
times called 'vervain' (Verbena has
tata). The roar of the bees as they
made their way back and forth from

Paris Doctor Says incubation Has
Never Caused Accident.

Paris. June 27.-The nurses of the
hospitals have recently been agitating
compulsory inoculation with the anti
typhoid serum. NJ. Mesureur. director
of the Assistance Publique in Paris,
made before the Academy of Medicine
an interesting statement, i'm which he
declared that all the charges brought
against the antityphod serum were
absolutely unfounded. lie considered
that i'm view OF the results obtained by
antityphoid incubation, the voting by
Parliament of a law making that inoc-
ulation compulsory in the army, and
the fact that it had never caused an
accident or given rise to complaints
1t was his duty TO insist on his 500
subordinates. who were peculiarly ex-
posed to typhoid infection, bencfltins
by this invaluable scientific discovery.
In the past ten years, Mr.. Mesureur
added, 800 nurses had fallen victims to
typhoid, and the mortality was as high
as IL per cent. The opposition To i'm
oculation. he said, was simply due to
the Syndicate of Nurses. the leaders
of which thousht II good opportuni-
