1.-The suggestion Of Governor Sorlie
for North Dakota honey is particu-
larly valuable. In Wisconsin the
beekeepers have adopted the name

Production Increasing Rapidly
Honey production in North Dako-
to has increased by leaps and bounds
during the past five years. The main
reason for this is the greatly in
creased average of sweet clover, seed

greater diversification Of crops in
the state. -.

tainly low estimate for the amount

$50 pounds per colony, which has
been obtained in recent years, the

state would be approximately $780,

"Thc remarkable feature of the
whole situation is that this repre-
scnts new wealth TO the state; an
additional resource previously not
available. In fact, the present money

would more than pay for the whole
cost of resident instruction at the
Agricultural College at Fargo, an

Peppermint raising is making farm
ers on Puget Sound Independent.
Puget Island, one of the richest
spots on the Columbia river, was re-
claimed by diking and charge of
$50 an acre stands against the state
lands. This improvement cost must
be paid for in cash when the land is
sold tho buyers have ten years in
which to pay the rest of the purchase
price. The state land department
found it impossible to sell its hold
ings on the island in big tracts SO is
cutting it into tracts ranging from
five acres up.
In plating the land department
engineers became acquainted with the
peppermint industry, finding that
farmers are. raising as high as SO
tons to the acre and marketing the

tilleries on the island are handling
the crop for smaller operators as the
peppermint must be shipped in liquid
form. An unlimited demand is said to
exist for the Washington peppermint.

INSPECT TAX LEyIES

If the state tax commission is
called in to pass on the tax levics
of some of the cities of the state
as irate taxpayers already are threat
ening-the new state board will lift
the lid and ascertain definitely what
is responsible for the rising cost of
municipal governments. The commits
sion will be obliged to do so for it
cannot pay attention to blanket
charge that the levies '1are too high"
to suit some taxpayers. The charges
that will bring the tax commission
on an investigation tour will be those
which point out the specific items in
the budgets which it is claimed are
swollen out of proportion and which
in turn boost the tax levies.
Local boards which have begun as
sembling data for their annual levies
probably will lfix their estimates
without any reference to the tax COM
mission for the state board only steps
in when taxpayers demand review.
Some of the local boards have indi-
Gated the supervisory powers of the
commission and are prepared to trim
so as to pass inspection. limitations
given to the tax commission from
some big centers are that taxpayers
have threatened the local boards with
a review if the costs of government
are not pruned.

|old chamber may be set in a new
location and laying queen intro
duced, or set it aside without remov-
ing the queen cells. They will thus
produce a queen of their own.
It is a little more difficult to handle
the bees when producing comb hon
ey. If the bees are in two stories,
all the sealed brood should be placed
in one hive with the queen and re-
moved to new location. One or two
supers, depending upon the size of
the colony should be placed upon this
new queenless portion left on the old
location. All of the working force
will return to the old location, leav-
ing the young bees under two weeks
Of age with the old queen.
If queen cells should be found later
it is necessary to use drastic mea-
sures. Place frame of sealed brood
with the queen, in the center Of q
hive containing frames Of foundation
Set the colony to be treated to one
side and then place this prepared hive
in the old location. Shake the bees
into this hive and then place the SUI
pers upon it. The brood is either used
for increase or to build up weaker
colonies.
Another method which may be used
is to place the queen upon a frame
of drawn comb. The comb and queen
are placed in the center Of an empty
hive body. A queen excluder is placed
upon this body, the brood chamber
minus the queen cells, next, and the
supers above all. Ten days later place
the frame with the queen back into
the brood chamber, remove the emp
ty hive body and the queen excluder
This generally satisfies the swarming
impulse.

ments by the highway department
prove. It would cost $500 mile to
do a good job of dust-laying. When
the highway is dragged again the
calcium chloride remains in the
ground but more would have to be
added next year to continue holding
down the dust. Suburban commune
ties or summer resort owners can lay
dust by this method themselves and
the department will approve such eff
forts.
However, the highway department
disapproves of the use of oil as oil
cakes and makes it expensive to fill
up ruts or chuck-holes in the road
way. Motorists object to the oil be-
cause Of the damage it does cars.

HIGH COST OF STAGING

What the soaring rubber market
means to stage line operators is in
dicated in reports to the department
of public works. With two big opera
tors figures still missing the stage
operators of this state last year spent
$265,00O for tires. Already one 10
per cent boost in price has occurred
and another Is per cent increase is
scheduled. Rubber has gone up 60
per cent. The stages will have to car
ny a lot of new passengers to make
up for the increased cost of tires.

DUsTLEss SUMMER COSTLY

From country residents, owners Of
,uting camps and summer resorts
and many small towns have come ap-
peals to state highway department
to lay the dust on the country roads.
The dust could be laid, engineers
admit, but it would cost about $500
a mile to do the job the first time
it was attempted and as the highway
department only has 5000 mile to
spend for maintenance thruout an
entire year so the dust problem is
far beyond the power Of the state to
cope with.

will keep down the dust, expert

MOTHERS DAY ORIGIN
Miss Anna Jarvis Started Move
in Grafton, w. Va, Where
Her Mother Had Lived

Sunday, May 10, is this year desig-
mated as Mothers Day. This will be
the 18th year Of official observation.
The second Sunday in May has been
set aside as Mothers Day by an act of
Congress signed in 1914 by Woodrow
Wilson. In it provision is made for
ia display Of flags on public buildings
as we'll as the expression of individual
tribute to motherhood.
That the idea was a welcome one
has been proved by the rapid growth
of ceremonies in connection with the
day. Church services on Mothers Day
are now almost universally arranged
with the day in mind, and other GUS
toms of the day are springing up. A
white carnation is the accepted flower
to be worn in memory of ones moth
er, and the sending to mothers of
specially designed greeting cards not
ing the day is another simple method
of expressing appreciation which has
met with approval.
The actual origin of the movement
which led to setting aside Mothers
Day is not generally known, hence
seems worthy of attention in view of
the increasing observation of it. In
vestigation shows that Miss Anna
Jarvis, Of Philadelphia, in 1903 made
the first step toward Mothers Day
when she asked that the church in the
little West Virginia town where her
mother had been leading spirit, hold
service in her memory. A little
later the Philadelphia churches are
found to have been generally observ-
ing one Sunday in May as Mothers
Day, and the plan grew to culmina-
ton in Nations legislation.
Various English customs act as a
precedent for the idea of Mothers
Day. In the days when young men
and girls were bound out as appren-
tees or maids, the fourth Sunday in
Lent was set aside as day when
