PICTURE SHOWS BEE-KEEPING
Film Outlines Best Practices in
Handling Honey Gatherers and
Control of Disease.

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 a picture, entitled Bees
How They Live and Work. issued
some time ago for more popular use.
The new picture shows the need for
re-queening the CO. my 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
will examine samples of combs to
identity diseases and advises on their
control Is brought out.
The film is in one reel, and may be
borrowed by extension workers and
others entitled to the privilege, or
prints may be purchased for approx
mately the cost Of making them, which
, Is about $751;.

Caveman's HEARTH.

What we know, Of our cave dwelling
ancestors we have Cleaned chiefly
from the. relics left by the cavemen in
their places of .habitation in caverns
and holes in. the rock Marett, the
anthropologist, tells Of leave in Jer-
sey, near the Bay, of ST. Brelaide,
where scientists dug down through
some twenty: feet Of clay land rock
rubbish, probably carried there in the
course of the last ice age that mantled
Europe, and found large stones that
had, proppeds up the fire, and even
some Of the ashes Bones were found
in heap of foo.l-refuse, which, when
examined, proved to be the remains
of the woolly rhinoceros, the reindeer,
two kinds of horses, of wild. OK and
of deer. Thirteen human teeth were
found in the foo1-heap. The diners
had also left their knives- flint

least One-eighth inch is to be expect
ed. This one-eighth inch around the
periphery Of, say, six.inch tile, gives
an entrance of two and one-half
square inches at each joint. Thus in
eleven joints-a length Of only twelve
feet of six-inch drain-there is an
entrance area equal to the cross-sec-
.tional area Of the tile. In a drain of
only moderate length there is likely
to be available a dozen times more
opening than the interior capacity OF
the tile can make use of.
.Porosity Not Wanted. .4.. tss~
One need not. fear that the water
cannot enter the tile. Place them as
close together as possible, turning
them around to get the closest posi-
BILE fit. There need be no hesitation
in the. use of hard-burned tile, or, If
available, sewer pipe with ''bell'' ends.
Durability and strength are the quail
tiles wanted-not porosity. In fact,
porosity usually means inferiorlty,
and is to be avoided, especially where
the tile are laid above the frost line
or so close to the surface as to be at
fected by, the wheels of vehicles or
heavy farm machinery.

peril of radicalism, and to AWAKEN u
the need Of intelligent cooperation IN
the governments efforts to combat the
menace.
i" 'In the past the American Legion
has stood foursquare in its opposition
to radicalism, to everything that might
tend to undermine our government ana
it's institutions" Colonel Owsley sa'd.
"And always in the future can our
organization be depended on TO nsnt
any force that does not represent loO
per cent loyalty.
=, "At the present time the. dislayal
elements in our society are more &C.
tive than ever before. Long-haired
dreamers pirate of the new order OF
things, and at the same time botder
spirits lay dark plans for acts of vlo-
lence that they hope will serve in I'M
dermining the public's faith and trust
in the government, or by force OF ter
rorism win support. The recent ar
rests Of communist leaders in Illinois;
the necessity of state government &C
ton against the I. w. WIS in Kansas !;
the stirring of radical movements IN
many parts of the country concomitant
with the unrest and troubles of labor
disputes show the necessity of con.
slant watchfulness and readiness for
action on the part of the American
Legion"
Mr.. Owsley declared that wherever
he had been he had found the program
Of Americanism prepared by the Amer
lean Legion close to the hearts OF LIE
gionnaires, and of the public as a
whole. Y"
"There are three big important
things that stand first with American
Legion members everywhere" he de-
clared. 'They are disqualification, re-
Mobilization and Americanization. All
are embraced in the term American
iZatiOn.' 49,,
"Education of foreign-born elements
Of our population in patriotism and
duty to government, and restriction OF
immigration in order that we may not
be surfeited with aliens unable to as
simulate Americas ideals and purposes,
but more likely to affiliate themselves
in their ignorance with the evil forces
that seek to tear down-these and
other essentials Of the American Lee

Gold Found in Wales.

A discovery of gold has been made
on farm at Cessailown Bach,
Bontddu, near yarmouth, Marioneth-
shire, where mining operations had
been carried out for several weeks.
The site Of this new discovery is mid
way between the famous Clogau gold
mines and 1Gwynfyndd gold mines,
which supplied Princess Mary's we'd
ding ring. For half century land in
the. neighborhood of Bontddu has
raised hopes of rich finds which have
largely disappointed. So. certain at one
time did it appear that gold in paying
quantities was. to be found in North
Wales that long and, costly litigation
ensued as, to-5the ownership Of land
to Il which previously nobody had
troubled to establish q claim.

Chinusc ;Eirc Lovers.


Birds play an important part in the
domestic life of the Chinese. Besides
using their flesh, eggs, and even their
nests as food, they keep great many
as pets. Indeed their fondness for
birds is one of the most pleasant fea-
lures of their national character.
Birds furnish them with much amuse-
ment. Some, like the pelican and cor
morant, they teach to fish for them.
Several kinds of bird pets are taught
to catch seeds thrown into the, air
after jumping from perches held in
the hand. Except in winter one can
always see people going into the open
country early in the morning with
their pets, to catch grasshoppers for
them and to teach their pets new
songs.
