Bee keepers will be interested in a
new motion picture prepared by the
United States Department Of Agricul-
ture showing the best practice In
handling bees and the control of bee
diseases. The film, which is called
"Keeping Bees at Work." is intended
to supplement picture entitled Bees
How They Live and Work." issued
some time ago for more popular use.
The new picture shows the need for
requeening the. colony from time to
time, the way to prepare the bees for
wintering, the time to unpack the
hives, the control of the swarm, and
other details of management. The
fact that the bureau Of entomology

LOOSE HAY HARD TO HANDLE
Use Of Press Makes II Comparatively
Easy Matter to Store and
Transport.

Loose hay is bulky product and ex-
tremely difficult to handle in large
quantities. Before the practice Of
pressing hay into bales became COM
mon it was difficult and expensive to
transport this feed except to the ex-
tent of loading it on wagons and haul
ing it to nearby town or city. AS a
result the matter of supply and de-
mand was quite largely local, and fire.
quently there was wide variation in
prices offered in different localities.
With the coming Of the hay press, 1t
was possible to put hay into bales
which were easily handled, greatly re-
ducing the space required for given
amount of hay, and making 1t possible
to transport hay for long distances at
costs which were not prohibitive.

run of tile-laying an opening Of at
least one-eighth inch is to be expect

periphery of, say, six-inch tile, gives
an entrance of two and one-half
square inches at each joint. Thus in

In the use of hard-burned tile, or, IL

porosity usually means inferlority,
