FOBT DODGE, lA. 



C. De Meester, of the Park Floral 

 Co., has received notice ^rom a firm 

 of lawyers to cease fumigation and 

 spraying in his greenhouses, as he has 

 been killing bees from a neighbor's 

 hives. Only a few days before the re- 

 ceipt of the notice he had asked the 

 owner of the bees to try to keep them 

 away from his houses, because they 

 were coming in through the ventilators 

 and ruining his carnations, so that he 

 had not been able to ship any stock 

 for a week. The owner's reply was 

 that Mr. De Meester must screen his 

 ventilators. Mr. De Meester believes 

 the responsibility lies with the owner 

 of the bees and will probably file a 

 counter claim for damages to his stock.
