National Bee Men Meet 
An amalgamation of the National Bee 
Keepers’ Association with the American 
Honey Producers’ League was effected in 
a session at Buffalo on March 10-11, 
apparently to the satisfaction of all .con¬ 
cerned. The national association has 
long tried to bring honey producers to¬ 
gether as regards the distribution of 
honey, but after making a dozen efforts 
has concluded to turn the task over to 
another concern. The idea is that the 
honey market is kept too local in its 
operations, with the result that while 
some big consuming centers are bare of 
it, others are so overstocked that prices 
go to pieces. It is reported by a member 
of the association that Buffalo jobbers 
and grocers now have a big supply, and 
the market is sagging badly. The new 
league was organized in Chicago in Jan¬ 
uary. and has at its head Guy Le Stour- 
geon of San Antonio, Tex., who is also 
president of the Texas association. The 
president of the national association. B. 
F. Kindig. came out in favor of the 
merging of the two. Considerable en¬ 
couragement has been given by the affili¬ 
ation at this first meeting of the associa¬ 
tions of Texas. California, New York, 
Cuba, Porto Rico and Mexico. A per¬ 
manent secretary, to be selected by the 
board, will give his whole time to the 
work, done mostly by mail and wire, of 
sizing up the condition of the various 
market centers and notifying the members 
where the demand is best. 
There were some good addresses on 
bees and honey at the meeting, which was 
well attended. A member from Iowa 
described the business there, where bass¬ 
wood and Sweet clover are leading 
sources of the sweet. ITe said that 
Sweet clover was allowed to come about 
to blossoming and then it was pastured 
enough to make the plants stool out, in 
which way they could, if handled right, 
be made to produce more honey and seed 
than if left untouched. A good bee 
colony could be made to produce 200 lbs. 
of honey in a season if the Langstroth 
hive and modern caps were used. The 
top price brings now 40 cents per lb. 
wholesale in Buffalo. A big Iowa bee 
man whom the speaker visited kept his 
bees in a cave during Winter, which by 
a system of triplicate doors was held at. 
a pleasant, even temperature all the time. 
Innuiry brought out the statement that 
the States west of the Mississippi are bet¬ 
ter bee territory than any East except 
New York and Pennsylvania. A keeper 
should always find out how many bees 
are kept in his territory, for it is easy 
to overstock. .ioiix w. Chamberlin. 
Tiie difficulty of finding a house is not 
exclusively an Eastern problem. Out in 
Kansas, for instance, a native observed 
a stranger looking around and ventured 
to say : “Good morning, sir. House hunt¬ 
ing?’’ “Yes,” replied the stranger. "I 
wonder if it could have blown this far.”

Holstein Breeders and 
Owners Reap the Benefits 
Over $3.'i0,000 has been expended in the 
past ten years by The IIolstein-Friesian 
Association of America in advertising the 
merits of the great “Blaek-and-White” 
breed. To the farmer who owns Hol¬ 
stein cattle, this far-reaching publicity 
work is a positive benefit. The continu¬ 
ally increasing interest in Holstein cat¬ 
tle throughout America makes for an ad¬ 
vance in values, and the breeder of Hol¬ 
stein cattle, wherever he may be, reaps 
greater profits on the rising market prices 
of his stock. 
If you want to know the way to better, 
bigger and more profitable dairy cattle 
breeding, send today for our free booklets.
