OUT OF
BEE DISEASES IS
PA|GNObJEC

Under the direction OF Don c..
Mote, state entomologist and apiary
inspector, the state agricultural and
horticultural department is now en-
gagged in campaign in Cochise
county to eradicate American foul
brood, a bee disease which is very
destructive to the industry. The
disease was discovered in the first
annual inspection of bees in the
state last year and the campaign to
eradicate it this year will be a part
of the second annual bee inspection.
The disease, which was introduced
into Cochise county between 10 and
Is years ago and has been preva-
lent there ever since, was not dis
covered in Maricopa county in the
first inspection despite the fact that
nearly one half Of the bee colonies
in the state are located in this coun-
ty. Because Of it's long standing in
Cochise county, it may take more
than one year to stamp out the
disease although the department
hopes to effect complete eradica-
tion this year.
The first provisions for bee in
spection and protection of the in
dustry from disease were made in
March, 1921, when the Fifth state
legislature passed an act making it
incumbent upon the state commission
of agriculture and horticulture to
prevent, so far as possible, the in
PRODUCTION Of bee diseases and to
undertake their eradication when dis
covered. No appropriation. however,
was made for the work and the de-
partment has been handicapped
somewhat through the lack of funds
for the work.
BY reason of it's organization and
the training of some of the men in
its employment, the department was
able to undertake the inspection of
apiaries located in certain counties.
However, the funds that could be
made available for the work out of
the appropriation made for carrying
on the regular work of the depart
ment We're not sufficient to effectu-
ally carry out the provisions of the
law even in those counties where in
spection was undertaken, let alone to
extend the work over the entire
state.
For this reason preference was
given to those counties in which the
agricultural investments were of
prime Importance and where bee dis
eases were suspected to exist. The
season for the inspection ended in
November. 1921. and the first inspec-
tion of bees was made in the follow
ing counties: Maricopa, Pinal, Pima,
Cochise, Graham. Yuma and Yavapai
counties and fifteen cases of Anleri-
can foulbrood were found distributed
as follows: Cochise IL, Yuma 2, and
Yavapai 1.

In Live Stock Industry By

| tie situation at this time, prepared
| by the Bureau of Markets and Crop
Estimates of the United States De-
partment of Agriculture, is the fore
runner of similar reports to be issued
periodically, to meet the demand for
seasonal information which will be of
value to the cattleman and the pros
pective purchaser of cattle. 1t is in
tended that these reports will be sup
pnmented by like information from
other states and by monthly state
ments on pasture and market condi-
tionS.
On the success Of this movement
to compile current statistics on live
stock win depend the success of an
organized effort on the part of the
Arizona Cattle Growers association
and the cattlemen of the state to de-
termine means of bringing about
orderly marketing of the feeder cattle
produced in Arizona. The Cattle
Growers association is giving it's
hearty endorsement and fullest assist
ance to the Bureau of Markets and
Crop Estimates in this work and
urges its members to give their indi-
vidual cooperation by furnishing the
data requested by the bureau.
The collection of current livestock
statistics in this state has a number
of difficult aspects and the success
of the work will depend largely upon
the cooperation given by the cattle
men and others throughout the state.
Grateful acknowledgement is made to
those who have furnished information
for this report, and it is contemplated
with their further cooperation and
the help of other wellinformed live
stock men to issue regular reports.

eral thousand colonies each were in
spected during the season last year,
and Is were found to be infected
with foulbrood. In all 1910 colo
nies of bees were inspected of which
81 were found to be infected. OF
this number % colonies were de-
stroyed and the remaining IS in
fected colonies were treated. One
case of sacbrood was found.
1t is estimated by the department
that there are now about $1,000
colonies of bees in the state of
which about $4,000 are located in
5000 colonies, Cochise about 5000,
Graham 1000, and Pinal 1000. The
colonies are estimated to be worth
about $4,000 and the value of the
honey and wax will gross about $780,
900 a year. The industry is increas-
ing, officials of the department said,
and each year sees more apiarles es-
tablished. There is yet many valu-
able bee fields open to the industry.
American foulbrood is germ
disease of the mature bees and is
very destructive, frequently wiping
out entire apiaries when once estab-
lished. 1t is spread from one colony
to another usually through the rob-
bing by bees Of one colony OF the
honey of an infected colony. 1t is
sometimes spread by placing new
colony in an infected hive and fre-
quently by placing the honeycomps
from an infected hive into clean
one. Eradication of the disease is
best had by destroying entirely the
infected colony.
The present law also provides for
the protection of the industry by re-
quiring that all apiaries, used hives,
and used apiary tools bea inspected
and, declared free of disease before
being brought into the state from
without, or when moved from one
county to another.

COMPLETE PLANS
FOR POPPY SALE
ON MEMORIAL DAY

Final arrangements for the Me-
mortal Day poppy sale were MADE
yesterday at a meeting of the Phoe-
nix Memorial Auxiliary to the Vete-
rams of Foreign Wars. Plans are
to secure a centrally located office
to be decorated with flags and used
as headquarters for the girls and
women who will sell the poppies on
the street.
The workers will be dressed in
white and viii carry baskets of
white and blue. They will also
wear a red sash bearing the legend,
the Poppies Grow" The poppies in
the baskets will carry out the color
scheme.
Window cards and placards will be
distributed over the city as soon as
they are received from district head
quarters The signs will bear the
FLANDERS Fields poem by McRay.
A few days before Memorial Day,
the merchants of Phoenix viii be
asked to buy poppy wreaths to be
placed in their store windows. En-
thusiasm is high this year for sue
cessful poppy day sale. The idea
originated in France under the super
vision of Madame Guerrin, who had
hundreds of women from the devas-
tated areas make poppies for sale in
the United States. The money Sc
cured in this way was used for the
benefit of French orphans.
This year the poppies have been
bought outright by the National Vet
Grams of Foreign Wars and the
American War Mothers and sold at
profit to the local organizations,
which in turn will sell them to the
citizens of their various districts.
The Phoenix Memorial Auxiliary
to the Veterans of Foreign Wars
will be assisted in the sale by the
Woman's Auxiliary of the American
Legion. The sale will be held on
May %.
