Overworking the Bees.

AS most things are affected by the
war there is less cause for marvel in
the suggestion of the national food
administration that the bees should
be made more efficient. Kenneth
Hawkins, who is bee specialist of the
United States department of agricul-
ture, Is telling the apiarists that they
should market less comb honey and
more of the extracted product, for,
he says. ii requires as much energy
on the part Of the bee to make a
pound of beeswax as to make twenty
pounds of honey. The honey should
he extracted from the comb by a
centrifugal machine. he says, and the
comb may then be placed back in the
hive for the bees 10 refill.
AS the bees have not turned the
clock ahead. the beekeepers are
urged to see that the bees are speed
ed up Il little in this method, it be-
ing impossible TO provide them with
time clocks or to pay them bonus
for increased production. What the
bees will think of it is altogether inn
material. we suppose They may en-
JOY reiling the old comb. or. on the
other hand, they may tire OF it and
quit, strike, go out or express their
disapprobation in some such way, If
this plan OF exploiting them continues
we may expect to see the bees or
ganize for self protection. Hartford

To our own army, and convince our
enemies now of our determination to

L am frequently much concerned
10 gather in perfectly loyal quarters
the impression that the war Will be
over in less than a year. One may note
in many centers of sinister influence

about by negotiation with Germany.
If this is the outcome of the war. il
Will be most humiliating to the United
States and win only postpone further

through out national spokesman. that
we can have no confidence in n treaty
made with William of Hohenzolleru

was assumed before Germanys treach

disintegration of her army. In spite
of her phrases of high principle she
has disclosed again her real lust for
territory and power, in placing her
paw on the valuable parts of Russia
Now therefore, we should be moro
determined than ever in our purpose
TO defeat German militarism before
we consent to close this war

Where Our Sailors
Are Trained

Washington. n. Q, Juno 5.-Forme err
President William Howard Taft, in a
communication to the National Geo
graphic society, gives a graphic ac-
count OF his impressions of the great
lakes naval training station near Chi
cago. A part of the communication is
issued by the society as a bulletin in
its war geography series, as follows:
1T is very interesting to compare
what the navy has done in its one
great cantonment at the great lakes
naval training station, north OF Chi
cago with the many cantonments
built and used by the army. The navy
had 25 1000 men To drill and train, and
this cantoument was. therefore, about
the same size or n little smaller than
the average army cantonmcnt.
1T is a great permanent station,
with accommodations for some J 200
or $500 tackles in training, and Of
course this offers conveniences that
are used in connection with the can
Torment. The buildings are some
what more stoutly built. They are
painted and constructed on somewhat
different architectural lines, both OF
which make them little more at
tractive to the eye They have also
what the army has not--two very large
drill halls. They gave me "A review of
1000 jaCkies In one drill hall, and 1t
was evident that these halls In the
winter season had been of great ad-
vantage for needed training in large
bodies.
Another difference was the differ
ence in the age Of the men The men
were really between eighteen and
twenty-five, and in their naval uni
form they looked like cadets OF high
f,s ,-p4x 4.
der excellent discipline as one could
see They needed no instruction as to
saiuting, for that seemed a second ma
ture to them, from the discipline they
had had. They were not as we'll able
as the Older men to withstand the test
OF my long addresses. and | thought
] discovered little more somnolence
among them than ! did among the
drafted army. OF course, they were
not so mature but they were very
bright, and they were certainly well
drilled in the manual of arms and in
the calisthenics with their rifles. II
would be difficult to select a site where
the winter winds have freer sweep
than at this training station, but the
buildings seemed to be we'll heated
and the command In excellent health"
MIR. Taft Is an ardent advocate of
the movement TO train an .overwhelm-
ing force for service in Europe. He
adds in his communication to the Geo
graphic society the following plea:
The law should be amended so as
to authorize the president to increase
the army from 500. 900 to 5000. 900
men with the colors. or more. We
must win the war. and we should now
lay our foundations broad so as to
make that inevitable.
"Of course. airplanes, artillery and
other instruments of war are necessary
in a modern campaign. and we should
increase the supply as far as our re-
sources Will permit. but in the end
this war, as other wars, must be won
by trained man power We should
look forward with large vision and

Three standard sized cans contain

Packing in small cans calls for need

sents a saving in tin of about 20 per
cent over 1 ounce cans. In addition,
the expense of filling and handling

equal TO that OF the larger one which
also has the advantage Of requiring
less shipping space for equal bulk Of
