Healey, secretary of the state board of agriculture, announced modification of the recent ruling by the board that no fair association wishing to benefit by_state aid could permit games of chance & any kind on the fair grounds during exhibition davs. As this ruling barred popular games of chance which, because the prizes were of small value, were harmless, it aroused statewide comment, and _the executive committee of the Connecticut State Fairs Association appointed a sub-committee to ask the state board of agriculture to mitigate _the decision, which was made in an effort to stamp omt gambling for money at state falrs. Sectetary Healey said e had sent to the president and secreiary of every fair as- sociation in the state a pamphlet advis- ing the action taken by the state board of agriculture at a meeting August 5. The pamphlet said the sub-committee declared it could guarantee that the officials of the local fair assocations would see that the rules and regulations as made by the" state board for previous years were enforced for the cominz season. The board therefore decided to modify its re- cent ruling as to games of chance, Vot- ing to prohibit at all agricultural fairs games of chance Where prizes which have been won are bought back for cash. If a member of the board apprises a fair official that such games of chance are in progress the official must cause the arrest or ejection of the guilty person.

M Latham in his opening demarks stated that the subject of bee-raising was so large ~that he could not fully discuss it in the limited amount of time but would take up the subject of the queen bee and her relation to the hive. The most frequent question that is asked is “How do you raise the queen bee?" There are many different ways in. which this is dome but I have my own method, he said. This year 80 far 1 have sold nearly 2000 queens, shipping them to all parts of the country and even to England . The queen bee is the life of the hiv she is the mother, laying from 3 to 5 thousand eggs each day. These esgs ‘when hatched turn out three kinds of Dbees, more queens, workers or imperfect female or rather a neuter as to Sex. They are all together different in every way, size, shape and sex. This change'is brought about by the feeding. To get a perfect queen bee I take away e queen bee from a hive and put in a number of small wax cups which the other bees prepare for the coming of the queen. When the hive becomes Queen hungry I put the queen back and she starts to lay the eggs in these cups. When the grub hatches or forms it is fed with whaiy is called royal jelly for about nine days and then it is removed to the incubator~for hatching. After the hatching the bee starts to perform its functions in life in about 9 to 10 days. The queen then mates with the male and after two days starts to lay eges. A colony with a poor queen is a bad proposition but a colony with a good queen is a money-making hive. I have seen colonies increasé their output by 150 pounds in a short time wit ha good queen in4he hive~~The raising of queen bees is an important factor in the suc- cess of the beekeeper. If course ofher things enter into the industry such as feeding, right temperature and other things but one of the most important is the queen. Mr. Latham answered many questions that were saked him by the Rotarians pertaining to the bee industry. He also showed cases which he uses in shipping bees by mail. The queen is put into a small_wooden case together with ten or a dozen’ workers the number regulated by the distance which the bee has to travel. A rising vote of thanks was given Mr. Latham at the conclusion of his tal President Worty presided af the megt- ing at which there were about 40 pres- ent, including four guests, two, William Stewart and Charles F. Trott of the Wa- terbury ejub. Mr. Byt during _the meeting eltended a hearty invitation to all members of the club ta attend the second annual inter-city outing which is [to be held at Lakes Quassapaug at Mid- dlebury, €onn,, on Aug. 26. Mr. Trott told of the groat sheep bake that has been planned together with a programme of athletics. Four new members, Judge Nelson J. {Avling. Otto F. Ernst, Louis A. Whee- ler and Dr. Franklin S.

I SOMEBODY PASSED RAISED $2 BILL ON LOCAL MERCHANT Beckenstein & Tavlor, who conduct a stor eat 226-270 Main street, on Wednes day evening issued a warning to mer- chants and the public to be on the watch for raised $2 hills, During the rush hours Saturday some- | body passed a $20 bill in payment of merchandise and the proprietors of the store have just discovered that it is a §2 bill raised fo $20, The $2 Dill was issued by the Federal Reserve bank of Boston and is of series A 1.
