what she wore. don't you? Well, then,
she wore black satin, semi-evening

with a close surplice effect, following

not too long. About the hips the

AP|AR|STS LOSE
HEAVILY BY NEW
DISEASE OF BEES
NOT FOUL BROOD, BUT SOME
OTHER TROUBLE IN
THE HIVES.

The wholesale loss OF bees by
aplarists in Mason Valley has been
general, and Warren Bros, Chas.
Johnston, Henry Guild and others
have been heavy losers, some OF
them losing practically every hive
of bees they owned, says the Yering-
ton Times
IL is yet uncertain what has caused
the great mortality among the honey
makers. We are informed that Mr..
Warren attribes it to the fumes from
the Mason Valley smelter. There are
others who claim the loss is due to
the unprecedented cold weather OF
last week and the week before. Then,
again, 1t is claimed that the bees
have died of disease somewhat re-
sembling dysentery, which has been
caused by feeding them a cheap sy-
rup made from the residue of beet
sugar
1t is a fact that the prevailing
winds so far this season have been
from the north and that the smelter
smoke and fumes have blown over
the valley to a greater extent than
in previous years, but that II has
been injurious to the bees is very
doubtful. Bees that have been placed
as far south as Wilson canyon have
died the same as those in the lower
end of the valley, and the fumes
could certainly not have reached as
far south as Wilson canyon. Again
if this was the cause of death to the
bees, would 1t not have killed al
other insects, such as flies, mos
quitoes, gnats, etc? There has beer
no diminution Of these insects.
Those who claim that cold weather
has been the cause of the bees dyini
point to the fact that the bee owners
who covered their hives up will
blankets and canvas during the coll
snap lost none of the bees so GOV
cred; the loss occurring in hives tina
we're not covered.
The statement that it may be tn
feed given the bees to carry ther
through last winter that has cause
the loss is on the grounds that suga
!, beets are known to be gross feeder
on alkali and other salts in tn
| ground, and that the residue left a
ter the sugar is taken out and RI
. fined leaves material that is hea'
; lily charged with alkali and salts.
is well known that salts and aka
are very injurious to honey bee
and 1t is possible that a disease hs
been contracted by the bees fro
8 eating this food and that the diseai
e has been spread broadcast.
Whatever the trouble is, 1t hi
g caused loss of many thousands
u dollars to the bee owners and hone
! shippers of this valley

CREDIT FOR APPLYING
THE COLLEGE AT HOME

Manhattan, April 22.-If a Kan
sas boy who has been enrolled In
the school of agriculture at the ag-
ricultural college, will go back
home this summer and put into
practice the things that he has
learned, he will be given school
credit. Projects may be worked out
in feeding or testing dairy cows,
growing poultry, breeding or grow
ing corn and other plans.
Work that is worth while must
be done in order to get this credit.
Because a boy is living on a farm
and helping his father with the
work, is no reason why he should
be given credit in school. If he
desires to solve some definite prob
lem in farming, under the direction
of the college instructors, he will
be given credit for the work done.
He must keep an accurate account
of work, and Of money expended,
and make written reports of what
he accomplished and how he did it.
