Quite an interest is being shown
in bettermethods of handling bees
since Mr.. Maxwell, bee specialist,
spent a few days in the county.
1t is rather surprising to find out
just how many bees there are in
the county. It is conservatively
estimated that we have more than
5000 colonies of bees. enough. if
properly taken care of, to make
from 100, 600 to 10000 pounds of
honey per year. AT the present
price of honey, this would bring
the farmer Sd. 600. 90 to So, 900. 90
per year. Take better care of
of your bees, put them In a hive
that they can use. Those who
have recently put in modern hives
are w. r, Tally, Bethel Springs;
Will Hockaday, Oxford creek;
Mr.. Dancer. Stantonyiile; County
Agent McKell. Selmer; and Charlie
Gage at Liberty. If you are in
terested in seeing one of these
hives, call at either of these places
and they will be glad to show
them to you.

LCSATIC STRRENDERS AFTER 19
DAY BATTLE WITH POLICE

Hinton, w Va, July 21.-Exhaus-
ton and wounds from the l2-day siege
during which he had held off city,
county and state police officers. caus-
ed John Fredeking TO surrender early
today through relatives whom he sum-
moned by telephone. After his wounds
had been dressed he was taken to the
county jail and preparations were
made for returning him to the state
hospital for the insane at Spencer.
Fredeking's worst wound was on
the right elbow the point of which
had been shot away. and this was in
such condition the physician who at
tended him feared he might lose the
arm. Two slight wounds on the right
hand and a cut on the top Of his left
shoulder. which might have been
caused by either bullets or glass ac-
cOrdinG TO the prisoner, were also
treated by DR.. X. w. Timberlake.
During the night the young man
>.,lephOned to his brother-inlaw, Carl
Templeton, asking that he bring the
physician to the Fredeking home,
where he had withstood the siege Of
peace officers since he killed Deputy
Sheriff Lew Matty. who was about to
take him to the Spencer hospital
from which he had once been re-
leased as cured. About $50 this morn
ing Mr.. Templeton. DIR. Timberlake
and Fredeking's uncle. William Lips
comb went to the house and found the
young man so weakened bv his long
vigil and wounds that he could have
offered little further resistance even
ii he had not surrendered.
Fredeking told the physicians he
had been living mainly on a supply
of nuts which was in the house, for
the last two or three days, and that
before that time bread had formed a
large part of his diet. The family
home was ideal Tor Il fort. two story
brick house situated ON Il steep ter
race in the center of the city. In up
per rooms he kept watch from all
sides on his beSiegers and was secure
from attack because he made his
headquarters in it room at the head
OF the stairs.
City and county officials who sought
to capture the young man were ham
pered by a ruling Of the local judge
that to kill him would bring ii charge
OF murder. and state police held them
selves in reserve, but were in charge
when the surrender was made through
Fredeking's uncle. At the time he
killed the deputy who sought to take
him to the hospital Fredeking also
VOunded his father. and since he re-
treated into the house he had wound
ed two of the men who attempted to
capture him. One of these. Charles
Hoke, of White Sulphur Springs, is
in n serious condition. having been
shot through the lungs after he sue
ceeded in getting into the house. by
advancing behind metal shield.
