STATEPLEADSFO FOR.
THE HONEY BEES
Should Not Be Harmed by
Some Old Methods of Hand
. ling Their Hives and Honey

The antiquated but common prac-
tice of some beekeepers to smoke out
colonies of bees to procure the honey
has resulted in the killing of thou
sands of bees each fall in this state
and efforts are being made by the
State Department of Agriculture to
stop the practice.
Chief Apiary Adviser George II.
Rea says that many farmers still use
the old sulphur smoking method and
that thousands of the heavy and best
colonies of bees are killed yearly in
this manner. With badly constructed
hives the smoking method is used
instead of the transfer of the bees to
modern hives and the loss amounts
to thousands of dollars. The aver
age colony of bees is worth about
ten dollars and the person who prac-
tices the smoking method is just
losing that much revenue as we'll as
curtailing the supply of honey for
future years.
Every effort is being made to in
crease the honey production of the
state and thus help out the sugar
shortage, as honey is a most accept
able substitute. On an inspection
trip in the northern part of the state
Mr.. Rea found a farmer ready to
smoke out ten hives of splendid
yielding bees, and he arranged for
the transfer of the colonies and
saved their destruction.
Beekeeping has been a profita BILE
industry as side line and some of
the larger apiaries have had splendid
returns. State Zoologist J. G.. San
ders has urged every orchardist to
secure several colonies of bees to
place in his orchard and strongly
urges every farmer to consider bee
keeping as a side line.
Owing to the high price of grain,
oats and hay especially, there are an
unusual number of horses available

State Grange Demands
Bone Dry Law as
First Aid to War

Williamsport, Pa, Dec. IL. - The
grangers of Pennsylvania want prohi-
btion as a war measure. In stirring
resolution adopted by the 100 grang-
ers at the state convention meeting
here, the grange sent greetings to the
National Anti-Saloon League in session
at Washington and pledged its strong
est support in an effort to secure pro-
hibition as a war measure and perma-
nent policy. The resolution was pass
ed unanimously amid great enthusi-
asm. 1t was presented by w. Il. Ross,
of Lackawanna county.
The grange will make a strong eff
fort to determine the source of a
statement printed in certain news
papers to the effect that the farmers
wives of the state canned less food
than usual this summer and had al
lowed much to waste. This statement
was branded as a falsehood. DR.. Har-
riet Lyons, chairman of the household
economics committee. urged that
everv means be used to prove the
falsity of the charge and the organi-
cation went on record condemning the
circulation of such reports as unfair
and unpatriotic.
The Rev. G. w. Hatch, of Mahaffey,
state chaplain of the order. demanded
the establishment of high school in
every township in Pennsylvania.
