HENDERSON, IN CJ DISPATCH SATURDAY AUGUST 49, 1887

ada, ought to make you grate1ul TO-
ward Americans, however Doorlsn
boorish they are when they get there.
A. You aren't a very good psy-
chologist. Suppose business was $3.50
in the U. Sand then a great horde
of Canadians came down like locustS
on your land, leaving brief prosperity
and making you feel obligated to
them for spending their money.
Wouldn't you hate them?
@. What specific thing about yam
KEGS do you resent most?
A. Well, their ideas are all alike
but they don't talk alike. They come
up to see us with a vast range Of &C
cents from the whining, drawing IN
donation of the South, to the crisp,
clipped speech of the Northern States
We examine them interestedly at first
in the belief that people with SUCH
varied speech must be full of varied
ideas. Actually they are all alike,
North or South, as two peas. l nave,
in thirty years of watching you peo-
pie, found only two different species
those who worship Roosevelt and
who hate him. It's rather pathetic,
don't you think, to be divided only
on that issue, purely political one!
@. But that's where you're wrong.
1t isn't a political issue any longer. 1t
has rapidly become a matter OF re-
ligious sects, this Roosevelt question.
But tell NEEDN'T you think even
tually the U. S. and Canada will find
a mutually of interests that will
bring them close together? After all,
they occupy most of the North Amer
lean continent together, and 1T may
/ be that they will be arrayed some day
against common invader.
| A. That's just the kind of talk
don't like. This mutually of interest
stuff 1t sounds too much like annex
alton Many Canadians i5elieve the U.
S. has it's eye on us and would ike
to take us over. Also, we don't like
: the you you people appropriate for
yourselves the use of the term Am
erican." I have heard people from
YOUR side of the line speak of "a party
of three Americans and two Cana
dians." Doesn't it ever occur to you
that we are Americans too? And so,
for that matter are the citizens of
Brazil.
@. You really can't find much good
in us, can you?
A. Not much. But I'll whisper one
thing if you'll promise not to say
said so. We vastly prefer you to the
typical Englishman!

New York, Aug. 28.-Interview with
a Canadian:
@. Is it true that Canadians don't
feel altogether friendly toward Amer
leans, as the rumors and the articles
in the reviews hint?
A. We hate United States citizens
although, of course, there are ex-
ceptions whom we like very much.
@. What do you object to mostly?
A. The tourist type. You know, I
think the u. S. might have been loved
by all the world if she had closed her
borders to outgoing tourists in the
summer time. But the tourists go
;trutting, ignorant and loud, over the
ace of the earth and stirring up an
,agonism.
@. You consider our tourists Bah
tits then?
A. No. Your Rabbit is usually a
nan who has made his own way in
he world and he is often tolerable.

AS a matter of fact, this wasn't the

Amerindians had dug them before;
they used petroleum for medicinal
purposes for centuries. A Franciscan
missionary from Canada found tribe

Even the possibilities of petroleum
as an illuminant were realized before
the Titusville well was dug, for coal
oil lamps had been introduced into
Germany some years before.

BEES IN need
OF FOOD NOW
1886 Production Good But
Some Colonies May Die
For Food
BY DR.. JOHN L. NORRIS
President Henderson County Bee
Keepers Association

The year 1886 was exceptional
ly good for the production Of
sourwood honey. Those who han
died their bees in Il proper man
ner were rewarded by piled up
superS and even those who let
their bees take care Of themselves
found honey in abundance.
We cannot tell what the bees
will do this year but already q
problem confronts Us and that IS
Feeding. The past year being
good the colonies went into the
winter with great number o.
bees. Naturally much white
store was consumed. The winter
was open, the bees flying every
few days during the entire sea-
son. This activity increased the
consumption of honey. Warm
days have induced early breeding.
The result is that many colonies
have about exhausted their sup
plies. If these impoverished col-
onies are rot given food they VII!
dwindIe and probably not fully
recover during tho entire honey
season. Possibly some colonies IL
not helped may die out altogether
But il is probably better for the
beekeepcr that they die out than
that they contine to exist in q
weakened condition for it is 9
