Bee Culture Taught
in the State University

The Nebraska and Douglas coun-
ty Bee Keepers associations have
endorsed bill to stimulate the
bee industry in Nebraska. The bill
was drawn up by Sergk H. &C,
Cook, one Of the best known bee
raisers in the country, and is now
up before the legislature at Lin
coin.
The bill provides for the estab-
lishment Of school at the Agricul-
ture college Of the University of
Nebraska which will teach better
methods of raising bees and conse-
quently increase the production of
honey in this state. An appropria-
ton of $1,000 is asked for A clause
which would discourage the selling
of foul or diseased colonies of
bees is also made. A penalty of
$50 is to be imposed on any per-
son guilty of such an offense.
According to Sergeant Cook
there are about 80 commercial bee
raisers in the state. These indi-
viduals have made bee raising a
successful and remunerative occu-
patton. About 500 other people are
raising bees in an amateur way and
failing. This, he says is due to a
lack of information upon the sub
ject.

Only One Has Right
to Haul Garbage in
Omaha, Says Dunn

The city was warned by Attorney
I. ]. Dunn in council meeting that
unless the garbage ordinance is
lived up to the city may become La
bic for a big damage suit. The ordi-
nance makes it unlawful for anyone
TO haul garbage except the man to
whom the city awards the contract
and who pays for the garbage.
Two large restaurants, The WEIGH
restaurants and the Calum-t have
been notified by Commissioner
Ringer that their hauling of their
garbage to leased ground in the
triangle where they feed
it to their hogs is illegal and must
be stopped.
Last summer the council made an
exception to the working of the ordi-
nance in the cases Of men who haul
garbage to feed hogs on their own
farms.
Mr.. Dunn declared there is about
$4,000 cash invested in the garbage

Judge Leslie in district court took
the case Of Elizabeth Malmstean
against the Ralph Hall estate from
the jury and directed verdict for
the defendant.

ried and that she had been a relig-
ious woman; that there had not
been a love affair between her and

offered to indicate that Hall had ever
addressed her as Mrs. Hail." Judge

common-law marriage between Mrs.
Pollock and Hall
