é f PAGE EIGHT | BEEKEEPING INDUSTRY IS RECOGNIZED Its Rapid Growth in State| Has Caused Publication of Special Bulletin Recognition of the rapid growth of the bee industry in North Dakota is made by the preparation of the state’s first printed bulletin on the indus- try. The bulletin, beiug prepared under | the direction of Joseph A. Kitchen, agriculture | the printer and will be issued soon. It cantains a resume of the growth of! state commissioncr of and labor, is in the hands of the‘industry and treatment of bee diseases, “When bees began to be shipped in- to the state not only in single hive shipments, but by the carload lots, | from such distant points as Texas, those who make beekeeping a busi- ness soon realized that North Dakota, with long hours of sunshine, few eloudy days and the long blossoming periods of such plants as swect clover that are indigenous to the state, of- fers a superior location,” says in his introduction. Larger Average Per Hive North Dakota's average production ot honey per hive has for the last five than that of the country as a whole, according.to Prof. J.‘A. Munro, state bee. inspector. During the .same period the state has held first place each year among individual states in the average production of honey per hive. “The beckeeping industry of North Dakota, although still in its infancy is making rapid progress,” Munro says. “In 1920, before the beginning of organized beekeeping in this state, there were 708 colonies. Since then it has grown into an organized in- dustry of 28 times its size in 1920,” he continues. “The reason for this rapid development is largely due to the important part which sweet clover plays in the agriculture of the state.” A summary of inspection of apiary work by counties during 1925-1926 shows that a total of 1 colonies were inspected. Sixty-three colonies discovered to be infected with Amer- ican foul brood were treated or de- atroyed. Twenty counties were in- spected.

Under the rules the pe- tition will require the signature of at Yeast 218 members, of which Garner said the Democrats could furnish only 182, if every Democrat were able per- aonally to appear in the house, iblicans Appealed To “So, if results are obtained, we shall have to have the signatures of declared. “We believe the country wants it and we stand ready to help pass it through a Republicah congress and let it be signed by a Republican presi- dent with whatever political benefit may accrue to them thereby, because we have sought our country’s honors that we may serve our country’s good. “We offer ourselves and invite you (Republicans) to let us ,help you serve the nation.” MEET MANDELL Local Boxer to Oppose ‘Twin City Boxer in “Ten-round Match Wednesday ' Jack McCann of Bismarck and Mike Mandell of St. Paul will tangle Wednesday night in a ten-round bout at Kenwood Armory, Minneapolis the winner to be matched with Duk Horn of Minneapolis about the mid- dle of Febru: leCann is a hard hitter and weighs 185 pounds against 175 for his oppon- ent.
