These are the times when everybody should
! be studying the twenty American republics lying
south of the United States These are the days
of unprecedented and legitimate opportunity in
Latin America for the commercial and financial
interests of this country. This present year
should be the beginning of a new epoch in the
material social and political relations of North
and South America.
The next ten years going to be "all Ameri-
can" years. All America is to attract the atten-
ton of all Americans. This development is
inevitable. The cause is found in the natural
wealth, resources and potentialities of Central
and South America, their actual commerce and
trade, their remarkable progress during recent
years. together with the unceasing propaganda
of the Pan-American union, which was at first
even ridicued and little appreciated. but is now
generally valued and recognized. The occasion
of this new interest at this moment is the Euro
pean war and the emphasis 1t has placed upon
the geographical segregation and commercial soil
darity of the nations of the western hemisphere.
Consider Latin America in any phase one pre-
fers. and it is worthy of keen interest. Let US
arst look at it geographically and physically We
see twenty countries ranging in area from little
Salvador with less than 5000 square miles,
smaller than Vermont. up to mighty Brazil, with
100000 square miles. or greater than the United
States proper with Great Britain thrown Ia! In

Of the hives the bees will
quickly take the liquid down
and be tided over the period
of famine.
1t is a mistake for any
farmer to try to keep bees
in the old-fashioned box hives,
for they cannot be managed
so well and getting the honey
out is likely to be Il painful
as well as exciting process.
Likewise, thousands of bees
are needlessly sacrificed, and
the hives are almost sure to
be neglected. Modern hives
cost but little, yet may be
taken entirely to pieces and
the bees looked over without
the loss of a single one. And

ARMERS in this country are just
coming to realize the debt which
they owe to the honey bee. 1t
has long been understood. Of
course, that this busy little in
sect fertilizes the blossoms of ap-
pie and other fruit trees and so
helps to increase the crop, yet
the bee has seldom been credited
with doing so much good as is
actually the case. Indeed, in
times past some fruit growers
