HONEY BEES TRANSPORTED
 TO INTERIOR
Swarm Is Being Taken to Roadhouse by Rika Wal-
 len-First in Alaska

The first swarm of domestic honey { bees to enter the Territory left Juneau this afternoon for Fair banks. accompanied by their owner, Miss Rika Wallen, owner of the Big Delta roadhouse on Richard son Highway, 91 miles south of Fairbanks.
 Miss Wallen, who operates a 30- acre farm on the south bank of the Panama River in connection with her roadhouse business, is also the postmaster and weather obser- yer at that point. She has been To- cated at Big Delta for the past 19 years, and has the distinction of being the first person to introduce domestic sheep into the Interior. The only yoke of oxen in Alaska raised by Miss Wallen, are used to work the roadhouse farm land. The oxen were broken last year and are equipped with a homemade yoke and harness.
 In addition to a number of sheep Miss Wallen has a herd of ten cows and flock of chickens which supply meat, eggs, milk and butter for the roadhouse, reported to be the only point between Fairbanks. and Valdez at which lresh milk is available
 The swarm of bees, of the Italian variety, were purchased by Miss Wallen in California and shipped by parcel post to Seattle, Inter- ocean Express to Juneau, and PAA plane to Fairbanks, from which point they will be carried over Richardson Highway to Big Delta by automobile. The bees are in a covered carrying case and, although the dealer in California from whom they were purchased stated that they would not reach Juneau alive, they hummed loudly and enthusias- tically within their quarters shortly before the plane took off for the Interior.
 The cost of transpor ation amounted to more than double the purchase price of the bees. Miss Wallen reported. The swarm was bought for $250 in California. and transportation charges to Fairbanks amounted to $5.43, she said. For more than three years Miss Wallen has attempted to buy a swarm of hecs but was unable to do so because dealers refused to ship them to Alaska, A bee hive, purchased in Seattle and sent ahead from there by steamer, will await the bees upon their arrival at their new home.
 Miss Wallen, who is returning to Big Delta from a combined busi- ness and pleasure trip to the States, left Fairbanks by plane on April 26. She arrived here from Seattle aboard the North Sea last Friday
