Convention Report. 



UTAH BBE-KKEPEBS' MEETING. 



The Utah Bee-keepers' Association met in Salt Lake 

 City last week in their annual convention, and trans- 

 acted considerable business. The first business trans- 

 acted was the election of officers for the ensuing year. 

 The following well-known bee-keepers were elected: 

 President, E. S. Lovesy; flrst Vice-president, R. T. 

 Rhees, of Weber Co.; second Vice-president, Willard 

 Belliston, of Juab; Secretary, A. Fawson, of Tooele 

 Co. Mr. W. C. Burgon was elected county Vice-presi- 

 dent for Salt Lake Co., rice J. B. Fagg; A. J. Butcher, 

 Davis Co.. vice C. E. Garrett; H. B. Horsley, for Car- 

 bon, vice Mrs. I. Bryner. 



President Lovesy reported that the claims against 

 the various smelter companies in the valley for the 

 loss of the bees had been finally settled, and all litiga- 

 tion ended; and, further, that the parties sustaining 

 losses had all received compensation in accordance 

 with the loss sustained. The President also reported 

 that the treasury now had a considerable sum of money 

 on hand by reason of the 10 per cent deducted. 



A committee was appointed, consisting of E. S. 

 Lovesy, A. Fawson, and W. C. Burgon, to formulate 

 resolutions of respect for O. B. Huntington, a deceas- 

 ed member. It was also decided to appoint an audit- 

 ing committee, this committee to consist of John 

 Oborn, W. C. Burgon, and W. B. Bringhurst. The 

 question of a remedy for ants was discussed, as it was 

 considered by the members'^that ants are very injuri- 

 ous to the bee industry. It was suggested that quick- 

 lime be placed on the ant-hills. 



Upon motion of Mr. Rhees, the President, Mr. E. S. 

 Lovesy was authorized to place an exhibit of honey in 

 the Chamber of Commerce Building, this exhibit to be 

 placed at the expense of the association. 



The President read his 'annual report. The report 

 consisted of a brief review of the industry during the 

 past year. He said that indications are very promis- 

 ing for a good honey crop in all parts of the State. He 

 also made favorable comment on the good condition 

 of the bee-keepers' organization, and suggested the 

 formation of joint stock companies in favorable loca- 

 tions. He also said that there was a need of a revision 

 of the bee-laws, and the appointment of a State in- 

 spector in addition to the county inspectors. He said 

 that a depot for the distribution of bee supplies and 

 bee-products would be a good thing. He also thought 

 that the bee-keepers should use every effort to prevent 

 the location of smelters in the agricultural districts. 

 He did not want to see the experience of Salt Lake 

 County, where ten thousand colonies have been killed 

 during the past few years, repeated in other sections 

 of the State.
