SAY DEAD COLONIES
SPREAD BEE DISEASE

That large number of the bee col
onies which wintered out doors have
been killed by the unusually severe
weather of recent weeks, is the claim
made by B. F. Kindig, of the Entomo-
logy Department at M. A. C.
"There is danger that any disease
which may have been present in dead
colonies will be spread to those that
are healthy now" says Mr.. Kindig.
"The live colonies rob from the dead
ones, and in this way get the dis
ease. The dead colonies should be
gotten away before they are robbed,
and any combs which show signs of
disease can then be destroyed"
A short course for beekeepers will
open at M. A. c. on Feb. 16, and con-
tinue for two weeks. Lectures and
demonstrations covering the funda-
mentals Of good beekeeping will be
taken up. The course is designed pri-
marily for beginners, but will be COM
prehensive enough to offer work for
any beekeepr.
Information on the beekeepers
course may be had by writing to Ash
ley M. Berridge, Director Short Cour-
ses, M. A. c., East Lansing.

BRITISH BACK HOOVER
FOR THE PRESIDENCY
Concerted Movement Aided by Will
son, to Secure His Nomination
by the Party

Washington, Feb. .-ThatPresident
Wilson and his friend Colonel House
are prime instigators of the move
ment to land the Democratic nomina-
ton for Herbert Hover, who never
cast vote in the United States and
spent twenty years of his adult life
in England, is revealed by facts which
have been brought to light in Con-
gress.
The Hoover boom was launched at a
luncheon given in New York City by
Colonel House. At that dinner were
the British Ambassador, Viscount Ed
ward Gray, Ralph Pulitzer, owner and
Frank I. Cobb, editor of the New York
World. Cleveland H. Dodge, Wall
street financier, who contributed
largely to the Wilson campaigns and
Cyrus H. X. Curtis, owner of the Sat-
urday Evening Post and the Phila-
delphia Public Ledger.
1t is significant that up to the time
of the luncheon, which has taken on
the proportions of national scandal
Hoover had not been seriously men,
toned. The presence of the British
Ambassador at gathering to discuss
the making of an American presidnet
may be explained by the great impor-
lance to the British Empire of having
as head of the United States a man
who could be depended upon to be
perfectly friendly to it at time when
the Empire will be beset by financial
and other troubles. The New York
World has long been the mouthpiece
of President Wilson. The frinedliness
of Dodge and Curtis toward England
are well known.
At any rate the World soon appear
ed with big blast for Hoover for
President. So did the Saturday Ev-
ening Post and the Philadelphia Pub
lie Ledger. The Ledger printed the
following under a Washington date
line:
Herbert c. Hoover is Woodrow
Wilson'S candidate for the Presidency
That assurance was given to the Pub
lie Ledger correspondent tonight from
a quarter which bears every indication
Of being well informed. Beyond ques-
ton Mr.. Hoover is the choice of Mr..
Wilson for the Presidency, and he will
to large extent secure the support
of all the devoted followers of Presi-
dent Wilson and all the supporters
of Mr.. Wilson's followers"
At. the Jaskson Day dinner, Presi-
dent Wilson declared in his letter that
the issue in the coming campaign is
to be the League of Nations and the
peace treaty generally, without the
crossing of a It" or the dotting of an

Famous Old Recipe for Cough Syrup Easily and cheaply made st home, but 1t beats them all for
 quick results.

Thousands of housewives have found that they can save thirds of the money usually spent.for cough prepara- tions, by using the well-known old recipe for making cough syrup at home. It is simple and cheap but it has no equal for prompt results. It takes right hold of a cough and gives immediate relief, usually stopping an ordinary cough in 24 hours or less.
 Get 21s ounces of Pinex from any druggist, pour it into pint bottle and add plain granulated sugar syrup to make full pint. If you prefer, use clarified molasses, honey, or corn syrup, instead of sugar syrup. Either way, it tastes good, keeps perfectly, and lasts family a long time.
 It's truly astonishing how quickly it acts, penetrating through every air passage of the throat and lungs-loos- ems and raises the phlegm, soothes and heals the membranes, and gradually but surely the annoying throat tickle and dreaded cough disappear entirely. Nothing better for bronchitis, spasmodic croup, hoarseness or bronchial asthma.
 Pinex is a special and highly concen- trated, compound of genuine Norway pine extract, known the world over for its healing effect on the membranes.
 Avoid disappointment by asking your druggist for "21la ounces of Pinex" with full directions and don't accept anything else. Guaranteed to give absolute satis- The Pinex Co.,, Ft. Wayne, Ind.

PITTSBURG CASE UP
Fight Is Rumored on City's Being
 Steel Easing Point

Washington, November 15.-(Special.)- )- Steel consumers from every section of the United States gathered here today to attend the opening before the federal trade commission of the case against Pittsburg as passing point for the price of steel The plaintiffs will have three days in which to state their case. Tho Pittsburg interests will rejoin Decem- Der l.
 The point at issue is this; ''Is it just that Pittsburg, because of it's power, should force other manufacturing points to maintain the Pittsburg price?"
 The Southern Association of Rolled Steel Consumers is represented at the hearing by Elliott Cheatham, attorney of Atlanta and c. L. Harold, secretary of the Birmingham Civic Association. IL is their contention that it is entlreN wrong that consumers cannot purchase their steel in Birmingham without pay ing in addition to the market price sum equal to the freight charges from Pttsburg to the point of destination. The United States Steel corporation, which did not oppose the reopening ol the case, is represented by it's general counsel. R. V. Lindabury. The Pitts burg interests contend that, as no other point in the United States can supply lss territorys s requirements without flNs- burg's assistance, Pittsburg is justified in stabilizing the steel market
 The commission promises solution ol this problem which has long dlsturpeu conditions. although it is probable that if the decision is adverse to Plttspurs' an appeal to the supreme court will De ip order

BETTER THAN CALOMEL
Thousands Have Discovered Dr. Edwards Olive Tablets
 are a Harmless Substitute

Dr. Edwards Olive Tablets-tfle sub stitute for calomel-are mild but sure laxative, and their effect on the liver is almost instantaneous These little olive colored tablets are the result of Dr. Edwards determination not to treat liver and bowel complaints with calomel.
 The pleasant little tablets do the good that calomel does, but have no bad after effects. They don't injure the teeth like strong liquids or calomel. They take hold of the trouble and quickly correct it. Why cure the liver at the expense of the teeth? Calomel sometimes plays havoc with the gums. So do strong liquids It is best not to take calomel. Let Dr. Edwards Olive Tablets take it's place.
