several have had to dispose of part of their heards because of their inability to procure help.
 Waterbury
 Industrial activity for the first two weeks of August was sluggish Repeated layoffs of short duration due to metal shortage curtailed hir. ing and the levelling off continued throughout the entire month. The substitution of articles by manufac- turers and the consequent chang. ing over of facilities is still in pro. gress.
 Mercantile business dropped dur ing the month of August with the exception of the sharp peak in fo- siery sales. Many firms have made extensive plans for better business during the coming month.
 Commercial work continued even- ly and metal shortages did moi seem to affect this work.
 There was sharp decrease ir new registration over the previous month. One small stoppage of work at one local plant resulted from e disagreement between the union enl- ployes and some Ilon-union employ es. This cleared up within twenty four hours.
 Supplementary machine shor tracing courses continued through out the month of August for both unemployed and pre- employed workers. The 200 hour tracing course for girls was completed and nc courses are in progress for women at the present time.
 Total unemployment claims de- creased IA per cent over the pre- vious month.
 Bristol
 All the industries in this area are extremely busy but 8 number oi the smaller manufacturers are be. ginning to do considerable worrying about materials and are fearful that unless defense contracts are obtained they will be forced to re- duce operations or stop work entire ly. To date this has not occurred tc any noticeable degree. There con. tinues to be a definite shortage oi skilled labor in this area and 1t il beginning to be felt in the semi. skilled group of machine operator! of various kinds.
 Satisfactory personnel for retai stores are more difilcult to obtair and in general the number of avail. able workers seems to be dropping steadily. The only group now avail able in sufficient numbers are mar ried women with some factory ex- perience. Unless layoffs do occur because of materials shortages, there is no question that the stringency in the labor market will increase.
 TorringtOn
 There has been little change in the industrial and labor situation in the Torrington area during the past month, although there is a noticeable tendency toward the em- poymert of married women and re- sistance along this line seems to be lessening, a great many married women having been placed in va rious factories during August.
 There still remains strong de- mand for farm hands and this has become more acute as the fruit picking season hears harvesting.
 There was a decrease in new reg. istrations during the month, total of 328 being received.

gifts to Major Peter E. Fox, com mander of the battalion and to Mrs Fox. Capt. Douglas Little of Tor rington presented the major with a fountain pen on behalf of the ofh- cers of the guard, and a compact was given Mrs. Fox.
 Mai Fox reported the receipt of a quantity of blank ammunition to be used by military escorts for fir- ing yolleys at graves. Go E in Wa terbury, Go. H in Torrington ad co. F in Ansonia have been des- ignated to provide firing squads for military funerals. Receipt of rubber ponchos was also reported : but the indications are that the problem of obtaining heavy winter clothing for members of the state guard will be a difficult one with so many mills working solely on de- fense orders at present.

AC o@AuS " AS APPHkSAv VAA"V esAes~eN lecturers gre now gravely concerned over the threatened shortage or necessary materials.
 This is not confined exclusively to notl-defense work, but is equally applicable to defense sub-contrac- tors. While the shutdown of factor ies, due to this cause, has not oc- cured to any wide extent to date, there are sufficient indications from many points to indicate widespread layofss in the near future unless materials are forthcoming.
 Er Metal Shortage
 Willimantic reports shortages of silk, already causing some layoffs; Danbury reports Q threatened short- age of fur for hat.makif1g: Ansonia and Waterbury report shortages of metals causing layoffs and there ap- pears to be sharp cllrtailment in private building construction because of Q lack of building materials. This latter appears to be serious in the Bridgeport area and may interfere with the housing of defense work CTS.
 Hiring in general was somewhat asnpeded during August because of this feeling of uncertainty and work CTS employed by non-defnse indus tries were registering in increasing numbers ct State Employment off, ces in preparation for expected lay- offs.
 Despite these instances, industrial activity throughout the state pro- ceeded at the same high pace, with some areas, notably Bridgeport, re- porting even greater acceleration.
 While materials shortages cannot be said at this point to have cut deeply into defense production, such shortages as have occurred, plus dwindling inventories. are regarded as symptomatic of future difficult ies.
 The migration of out-of-state workers into Connecticut has con- tinued but there seems to have been sonnO during August. Bridgeport re- porta 6 lessening, but even in dim finished numbers these migrant workers, largely lInskilled, exceed several hundred c day in this one city.
 Women Aiding Work
 The infiltration of women into machine crafts has already begun and several trainng classes have been absorbed. Assistance to the eTn- ployment of women has large ly broken down in the face of the realities of the situation, although 6 still exists in some areas.
 Farmers throughout the state were preparing to tighten their belts and work . little harder in order to get in the crops. Apple and peach chops are maturing and there is scarcely any mature male labor available; chief reliance for the harvesting is on school children and women. The response to appeals has been ex- cellent to date, and 1t is felt that an extraordinarily fine crop may be saved.
 MT. Danaher stated that 1t han recently come to his attention that 1nniviC. ials were being released from jaiIs and other correctional insti- tutions to assist in picking the fruit crop. He stated that he was cm- phatically opposed to such prac- tice.

Honey bees are the most valuable
insects in the world to mankind.
Actually they produce crop for our
use that amounts to well over so
million dollars annually and, valued
i'll terms of retail prices. this crop is
estimated to be go million pounds Of
pure sweet ready for our use But
this is a mere fraction of the service
OF this winged army, for how can we
estimate the value of fruits. vege-
tables and flowers which are also the
result of the efforts of these tireless
workers?
For thousands of years the bee has
been celebrated in song and story.
The social life of the honey bee has
reached a high degree of develop
ment. Even though the nectar COL
lectorS have made such a grand
success of their industry, man is
seeking to improve on the model
nature designed, and is trying to
build a bee with a longer tongue, a
wider wing eXpanse and a larger
reserve tank for transporting the
collected nectar. Of. course, they
