SPECIALISTS HOLD MEETING All Feasible Efforts to Be Made to Prevent Introduction of Queen Bees From Foreign Countries, Except Canada. (Prepared l»y th* United State* l>purtment of Agriculture.) Serious ravu^es causing almost com plete destruction of the beekeeping in dustry In parts of Europe by the "Isle of Wight” disease has started deter mined action by American beekeepers to save their business from similar losses. Thus fur the disease has not gained a foothold In this country or In Canada, and It is believed thut should the disease become established here beekeepers, queen breeders and manufacturers of bee supplies would quickly be ruined and horticultural In terests would be seriously damaged. As a first step toward preventing till*, a meeting was held recently at the bureau of entomology of the United States Department of Agricul ture, which was attended by special ists from several states und Canada who are Interested In protective meas ures. Prevent Introduction of Beee. The meeting decided to use all feasi ble efforts to prevent the Introduc tion of queen bees from all foreign countries except Canadu, and to dis courage the Introduction of adult bees Into the United States except for ex perimental and scientific purposes by the United States Department of Agri culture. Since there Is no known Isle of Wight disease In Cutiada and since It is hoped and expected that the Dominion of Canada will establish the same safeguards to the beekeeping Industry, It Is plnnned not to establish any quarantines or prohibitions against shipments of bees from and to Canada. All the men who attended the meet ing were of the opinion that the Isle of Wight disease would be such a serious menace to beekeeping on this continent that every possible step should be taken to prevent its Intro- WELL- AFTER ALL- AUTPCASn 39 When you hear a feller grumble at the hill he lias to climb, an’ later, see him crumble in despair,—you wouldn't err in jedgement, if you bet yer bottom dime, that he has built the cross he had to bear.

We pander to the vicious appetite. We undertake the very thing that's sure to leave us worse, an' shet our eyes to everything that’s right. Then—is it any wonder, that we flounder in the sea, and swaller hitter waters, tempest-tossed? Too often we imagine that our trouble has to he, when we only need the rudder that we lost! We’ll find it smoother sailin' if wc banish every dread, and cure the imperfec tions of our own. The trouble's nearly allers in our little ivory- head,—and trouble's hard to manage—in a bone!

Fend ing fall legislation In this matter, the conferees are hopeful that beekeepers In both countries will co-operate to thn fullest extent by making no at tempt to Introduce adult bees. Any qneen breeder who Introduced this dis- j snae Into the country would be doing j a great damage to the beekeeping In- > daatry that would be a serious draw back to future business. It was said.

Source of Big Loss. ~ Isle of Wight disease la caused by a parasitic mite in adult bees, and Is anally transported by bees shipped 1 from Europe to America as was proved during the past summer when live bees carrying living mites arrived lm Washington from Scotland. The dlaease is evidently a serious source of loss to beekeepers of the British ] Idee. It was first observed in 1904 in • the Isle of Wight, whence came the j name, and In succeeding years It has ■ spread with considerable rapidity to all parts of Great Brltuin.

The dean said: "I feel 1 am get ting old,” Miss Macaulay. The sister of the historian, asked him what lie had bad to give up on account of his age. The dean laughed, and replied: "Not much as yet, exeept evening parties.” Lord Selborne remarked: “I also am getting old; 1 will never tuke office again.” Miss Macaulay ob served that the Levites used to give up active work at the age of fifty, and Lord Selborne asked where she found that piece of information. "Where should 1 get It except from my Bible?” was the answer. **I never noticed It In the Bible, Do you remember tl»e fact Stanly?*' lord chancellor said his bead and owned be did not remem ber it either. Miss Mucuuluy said no more, but she announced u few dnys later that she had found the passage, and sent it to both Lord Selborne and the dean.
