FLY CHEATS BEE
Apiarists Advance Reason for
Sugar Shortage, Prices.
Hold Annual Meeting in Topeka
Elect Officers.

Members who attended the annual
meeting of the State -Beekeepers' as
sociation in the senate chamber today
were not "stung" Several declared it
was the most inspirational and educa-
tional program of the kind they had
ever heard The addresses and dis
cussions were confined chiefly to tech
nical subjects of peculiar ~interest to
the beekeeper.
The program opened Thursday aft
ernoon. the last three addresses ON the
program of the Kansas Horticultural
society meeting forming the first three
on the beck meeting. The con-
vention ended this afternoon with the
election of officers, appointment of
committees and laying plans for the
coming year.
That beekeeping in Kansas is be-
coming established on a sound basis
seemed to be the general sentiment
ent high price of honey may not con-
tinue. it will bring sufficient revenue
to make the industry lucrative one
and still place it before the public at a
price that will encourage its use.
The sugar shortage. which increased
| the honey demand, and the appear
ance of a large fly. which sucked the
honey from the flowers before the
bees got to them, was advanced as the
reason for the scarcity of honey last
year and the resultant high prices.
The price next year will not be 50
high. it was predicted.
I Among the speakers on the program
were O. a. Keene. of Topeka, presi-
dent; Prof. J. s. Hunter, Lawrence,
] DR. J. Fl. Merrill, Manhattan; George
| Pratt, Topeka; L. V. Rhine. Hutchfn-
son; J. A. Nininger, hutchinson; AL
bert Swan, Topeka. and J. F. Diemer,
of Liberty, Mo. The latter is an ex-
| tensive breeder of Italian queen bees
and gave members an interesting talk
on introducing the queens into the
| hives
