established III his department a division
Of markets and this division is making a
study Of the subject that is country wide
During the next twelve months this
division will give specia attention to
municipal markets. and il may be that
al the capital a demonstra ton may be
made BY the cooperative action OF the
department and the municipal govern
ment that will mean much for the peo-
pie locally as well as an example 10 the
rest Of the country. For these reasons
the Commissioners hope to have the aid
OF the Department of Agriculture in Sc
Letting man for the position who has
made a study of the subject. who has
had practical experience and who is i'm
bued with the spirit which is necessary
TO make successful the plan outlined
above.

II INJURED IN BLAST
EXPLOSION IN TUNNEL UNnER
LAKE AT MILWAUKEE,.
Work.nen 5urnes When Gas lgniteS
From Drill Spark-Nore
Fatally Hurt.

Milwaukee.-The lives Of twenty
five laboring men were imperiled
while working on a new intake wates
tunnel under Lake Michigan, when an
explosion, said to be due to an accuy
mutation of gas, supposed to have
been ignited from drill, occurred
rwenty-one of the workmen were In
lured, some being seriously burned.
but it is said that all will recover.
The explosion caused reverbera|
ton for miles over the lake The in
iured men were employed in the third
air chamber of the tunnel, about 1000
feet from the shore and over 100 feet
from the surface of the lake.
That they were not literally ere,
mated was due to the fact that the
gases which accumulated presumably
in the tunnel had not sufficient power
to cause greater explosion. Carried
out by other employees of the tunnel
project after a foreman had unlocked
the air chamber, the victims were
rushed to a hospital.
The workers caught by the explo-
sion were all found on the floor of the
large tube, where they had been
thrown by the impact of the exploding
gases. A number of them were un7
conscious, and were thought at first
to be dead.

Beekeeping for pleasure and profit
is carried on by many thousands of
people in all parts of the United
States. There are many places where
an experienced beekeeper can make a
good living by devoting his entire
time and attention to rhis line OF
work. 1t is usually unwise, however,
to undertake extensive Bookkeeping, the
U. S. department of agriculture
says, without considerable previous
experience on small scale, since
there are so many minor details
which go to make up success.
The average annual honey yield per
col, ny for the entire country under
good management will probably be
twenty-five to thirty pounds Of comb
honey or forty to fifty pounds of ex-
tracted honey, the latter being more
productive owing TO the fact that the
comb is used repeatedly instead of be-
ing made anew by the bees each time.
The money return to be obtained from
the crop depends entirely on the mar

honey. If sold direct to the consum-
er, extracted honey brings from ten
to twenty cents per pound, and comb
honey from fifteen to twenty-five
cents per section. If sold to dealers.
the price varies from six to ten cents
for extracted honey and from ten to
fifteen cents for comb honey.

Twenty-Seven Concerns Financed anc
Controlled by New York Corporation
viii Nearly All Go Into Hands OF
Receiyer--Banks VIII Escape Loss

Now York, June 29.-H. B. Clafiin
company, the bankrupt firm, it was
learned, owes about s2.800,o00 te
manufacturers and dealers in dry
goods and notions. This sum, added tc
the S34.000,000 owed to banks on dis
count paper, makes the total liabilities
of the firm $36,o00000 1t should be
said, however, tlat the Indebtedness
of $2,S00,000 fer merchandise pur'
chased is not charged entirely against
the Fl. B. Claf1in company, but also
against the q stores controlled and
financed by the corporation.
Six of these stores. two of them
in Brooklyn, went into bankruptcy fol-
lowing the failure of the parent house,
Others are going into receiverships in
various cities throughout the coun-
try. A few OF the stores nay be able
to finance themselves, but the bank
ers most conversant with affairs OF
the Claflin concern say that this for
tunate condition applies to not more
than two or three of the establish
ments affected.
Though several of the stores con-
trolled by the famous dry goods house
have followed the Claflin company into
the bands of receivers, confidence was
expressed among business men here
that the great firms financial sol
vency would be ultimately established
Predictions were made that its debts
would be paid dollar for dollar and
that 1t would resume it's place in the
business world after a reorganiza-
ton.
Fears aroused by the fact that the
paper OF the firm was scattered among
5000 banks, representing practically
every city having $4,000 or more In
habitants, were partially relieved
when 1t became known that the
way in which the paper was scattered
would probably prevent any wide
spread financial difficulties. For many
hours after the failure became known
it was feared that many of the banks
would have to suspend.

Washington, June 29.-President
Wilson's emphatic declaration of the
administrators intention to go
straight ahead with its antitrust pro
gram and place those measures on the
statute books of the country with the
prediction of unparalleled prosperity
to follow attracted widespread atten-
ton on Friday. In congressional cir
cles especially the presidents, utter
ances we're read with keen interest
While the presidents speech was ad-
dressed to members of the Virginia
Press association, it was regarded as
perhaps the most important message
the president has given to the bust
ness world and as his final answer to
thosa who oppose the enactment of
the antitrust program at the present
session Of congress. The president
made 1t clear that he was determined
to push the trust program.

Hive Stands.

Generally it is best to have each
hive on = separate stand. The en-
trance should be lower than any
other part of the hive. Stands OF
wood. bricks, tile, concrete blocks, or
any other convenient material will an
swer the purpose. The hive should
be raised above the ground, so that
the bottom will not rot 1t is usually
not necessary to raise the hive more

Directions for ManipuIatIons.
Beer should be handled so that they
will be little disturbed in their work.
AS much as possible. stings should be
avoided during manipulation. This is
true, not so much because they are
painful to the operator, but because
the door of poison which gets into
the air iSritates the other bees and
makes them more difficult to manage.
For this reason it is most advisable
to wear a black veil over a wide
brimmed hat and to have a good
smoker. Gloves, however, are usually
more an Inconvenience than other
wise Gauntlets or rubber bands
around the cuffs keep the bees from
crawling up the sleeve. 1t is best t.,
avoid black clothing, since that color
seems to excite bees a black felt
hat Is especially to be avoided.
Superfuous quick movements tend
to irrttate the bees. The hive should
not be Jared or disturbed any more
than necessary. Rapid movements
are Objectionable, because vita their
peculiar eye structure bees probably
perceive motion more readily than
they do objects. Persons not accus
toned to bees, on approaching hive
often strike at bees which fly toward
them or make some quick movement
Of the head or hand to avoid the sting
which they fear is to follow This
should not be done, for the racsd
movement, even II not toward the bee,
is far more likely to he followed by
a sting than is remaining quiet.
The best time to handle bees is dur
ing the middle of warm days, partio-
ularly during a honey flow. Never
handle bees at night or on cold, wet
days unless absolutely necessary The
work Of a beginner RAY be made
much easier and more pleasant by
!. keeping gentle bees. Caucasians,
Carniolans, Banats anG some strains
Of Italians ordinarily do not sting

JOHNSON RETAINS HIS TITLE
Negro Defeats Frank Moran in Fierce
Battle at Paris, France-Bout
Lasts 20 Rounds

Paris, June 30.-Frank Moran OF
Pittsburgh lost the decision to Jack
Johnson of Galveston, Tex, In 20
rounds here in their battle for the
heavyweight title of the world on Sat.
urday, but he did something no other
fighter has been able to do IN recent
years-stay the limit.
No other decision was possible I'M
der the circumstances, and while there
was not dissenting voice against the
verdict of Referee Georges Carpenter
there were no cheers for the winner,
for the black man fought dirty
fight and at times the fans thought
the judge had enough cause to disqual
ify the titleholder for holding and hit
ting.
The blow that really decided the
contest came in the tenth round and 1t
was a foul After being warned sew
eral times in the early periods for
rough work, Johnson walked into a
clinch in the tenth and on the call OF
break" pushed in a straight left to
Moran's nose and mouth. The crowd
Kissed and Carpenter stopped the bat
tie for a second or two to warn John
son that a repetition would end the
battle. This did not help Moran, how,
ever, for the blow was damaging and
he never recovered thereafter.
In the seventh, eighth and ninth Mo
rams continued rushing nettled John.

cheering his every blow and begging
for a knockout Then came the tenth
