The farmers entertainment at the

success. The school auditorium was
crowded with people to participate
in the first entertainment of its kind.
Miss Lena Andert gave a classical
selection on the piano. This was
followed by lecture by Prof. A. D.
Wilson, head of the University Elk
tension Division. The next was a

valuable feature of the program was
talk on shipping associations and
cooperation by Fred Andert. He
was followed by two splendid songs

Heick then gave a talk on corn. A
muscal selection followed. and then
Fred Hawk gave an illustrated lee.

the use of the fire extinguishers kept

with seemingly similar conditions.
The one was treated with extra seed,

PLEASURE IN KEEPING BEES
No More Interesting or Profitable
Business Connected With Farm
Best Keepers Are Women.
CBY c. NJ. BENTLEY

AS a side line, considering the exc
pense of installation, there is no more
interesting and profitable business
than beekeeping Not only is this true
for the fruitgrower and farmer, but to
the residents Of cities, those in mer-
camille and professional lines. Some
Of the best beekeepers are women.
True it is that time and attention and
preliminary knowledge are necessary;
but experience will be gained rapidly
when the living bees are studied in
connection with printed instructions.
A visit to an apary conducted by a
practical beekeeper will furnish valu-
able suggestions and interest in the
work. No one who wishes to derive
the greatest pleasure and profit from
his bees should expect the little fell
lows to do good work uneless provid-
ed with suitable hives, Do not for a
moment attempt to keep bees in hol-
low logs or plank boxes instead have
modern hives which can be opened
from time to time so that the true
condition Of your bees may be studied,
Surplus honey may be taken off with
out destroying your bees or even dis
turbing them, Should your bees be-
come diseased 1t will be an easy mat
ter with a separable hive, to inspect
them and determine the cause,
Like all other industries when first
undertaken, beekeepers should begin
in a simple way, II you are not
acquainted with bees 1t Is best to be-
gin with one colony and one or two
