Mr. Kindig'. Work 

 The "Beekeepers' Letters" by B. F. 

 Kindig, published by the Department 

 of Entomology of the Michigan Agri- 

 cultural College, are worthy of com- 

 mendation. We have before us No. 7, 

 published in August. It is a 5-page 

 letter and full of good things. Mr. 

 Kindig is a worker. Beekeepers of 

 Michigan should secure all that he 

 writes. 



Bartholomew to Florida 



C. E. Bartholomew, formerly of the 

 Iowa Agricultural College, and later 

 a member of the field force of the 

 Bureau of Entomology, has been ap- 

 pointed assistant to the Plant Com- 

 missioner of Florida, in Bee Disease 

 Control, with headquarters at Gains- 

 ville. 



New Law in Wisconsin 



Wisconsin has a new law for dis- 

 ease control. One of the provisions 

 prohibits the sale or removel of bees 

 or equipment without a permit from 

 the Inspector of Apiaries. It thus 

 becomes impossible for Wisconsin 

 beekeepers, even though no disease is 

 present, to ship any old combs i_r 

 used equipment without such permit. 

 We would caution beekeepers to 

 comply with the law and thus avoid 

 possible trouble. A strict interpreta- 

 tion of the law would prevent the 

 beekeeper from moving an apiary 

 from one location to another without 

 first communicating with the inspec- 

 tor. Wisconsin beekeepers will do 

 well to write to the Stite Entomolo- 

 gist at Madison and get his interpre- 

 tation of the law on this point. 



Pasting Labels on Tin 



A good way is by the use of Tur- 

 lington's Balsam, otherwise tincture 

 of benzoin compound. Daub tin to 

 be covered with label with a little of 

 the tincture, allow it to dry, and label 

 will stick to it ever after. The writer 

 used it for a good many years and it 

 worked.
