JU SWARM A HIVE OF

BEES

James E. Starxey, a bee expert, or tue ^tate Oept. ot Conservation, uivision oi Entomology and County Agent, Jackson have been calling oi the bee Keepers of Putnam County and inspecting their bees for disease and ofit ring suggestions as to thei: care. He reports a greater interest in the county for bees for which tin beekeepers are to be congratulated. Most bee men are making the greatest possible effort to produce all the honey possible. They realize that the honey produced will take the place of other sweets. It is a cron that cannot be saved without bees to gather it. The bees must have inteligent care and if they receive this will often produce from fifty to one bunded pounds of surplus honey per colony. "The great needs in Putnam County Mr. Starkey declares, “are a better understanding of the disease problems and their treatment, the use of better equipment* especially movable frames and full sheets of comb foundation and the introduction of pure Italian queens. It is no longer lawful to keep bees in box hives or in frames which can not be moved from the hives. Perhaps more than 50 percent of the honey crop each year is lost by a failure to control swarming’’ As a preparation for hiving swarms easily, all queens should be clipped as soon as the” begin laying. This p'-'.vents swarms leaving, or settling i\ t -ee tops ond much danger. «ns climbing rind stings while hiving them. During tne fruit bloom seas n is the most suitable time of the ; ason for clipping queens. At that time the b'-cs ->re busy gathering nectar anti are rot likely to be troublesome and as thf-re is no* so much brood nor so many bees in the hive, the oueen is rather easily found. She is easily recognized, being long and slender and larger than a worker. About half of the wings on one! s’d should be clipped. Her wings, will not grow out again as many sup : i

but it is not likely to store any surplus unless there is a later flow. Caution: Don’t wait until the queen cells have hatched, before moving the parent colony. .Further information on bees will be furnished free upon application to the Department of Conservation, Division of Entomology, State House Indianapolis, Indiana.

When the swarm issues the queen ! can easily he found crawling around i in front of the hive. She should be j caged in a wire screen cage kept ' for the purpose. Cage h< r by pick-! mg her up by the wings or simply let her crawl in by holding the cage in tront of her. The old hive from which the swarm issued should be removed and the new fine containing ''lames with full sheets of foundation wired in. set in its stead and the cage containing the queen placed a* its entrance. The sup< rr. on tb hive with all the b is and h >ney con- j tain* , in :hcm. should be take: off and placed on the new hive, over an | excluder. j In the meantime the swarm will be 1 flying around and may cluster) somewhere but will not leave without 1 the queen. In a short time they will ' return and begin entering the new , hive on the old stand. When nwarly j all have gone in, the queen should ; be released and allowed to run in I

with the rest.

If natural swarming is allowed as ! above indicated and increase is de- > aired and at the same time the max-I •mum crop of honey is secured, the ! old hive should next be set close up to the new swarm, parallel with it, and with the entrance facing in the same direction. This may be dpne us soon as the swarm has gone in. Within the next six or seven days when the bets are flying the thickest, the old parent colony should lx curried aw" to an entirely new location. T 'Id bees will return and enter wit., i t.c new swarm on the old location. Remember the swarm is the best storing colony and being greath strengthened by these returr field lives, these become a p-i iho storing force of the swarm where they will do the most good at honey pr : ion if superroom is given as ij. Tl. loss o' tlic'c field !>oes by the parent colony usually prevents further sw&i ling of that color for that season because it D o educed in population. Howevi >• to sake th mater more sure, about h. If the boos i’ ihe obi c dony may be baken out ■n front of the swarm who ii is moved away or all the queen cells excenf one cut out at that time. This colony will build up nice for wintering

I will never forget going into one of the wealthy homes in Putnam County. Yes it was a good ’many years ago. It was a splendid farm— good soil—good buildings—a farm home to be proud of. That is, on the outside— hut HER HOUSE was almost bare of furniture. No conveniences, no comfort. Nothing cheerful—nothing to make for happiness He was proud of HIS FARM, and he had a right to be. She was ashamed of HER HOUSE. It didn’t show a square deal and a good place to begin with a square deal is at home. Correct furnishings for this home would have been the best investment THEY could have possibly made, and would have returned a thousand percent per annum in happiness, contentment, self respect and comfort. Don’t forget you also spend some time in HER HOUSE as well as on YOUR FARM. It’s true she is almost driving you out of her house just a: this house cleaning period, and you’ll be jolly glad when it’s over, so you can get settled down in your most comfortable chair again, hut she'll be happier, and so will you if she has a new rug or two, and a kitclvn cabinet, extra chairs, beds, dressers or the other things, she ne.ds in HER HOUSE. Prices are awfully high on furniture but they’re going higher. About 10 per cent of the families arc holding back buying furniture because it is so high. They’re going to begin buying a few weeks or months hence and will then have to pay more money for furniture than if thov bought now. A lot of the big furniture factories quit making furniture and are making nothing but talkin" machines. A lot mere have "one to 'inufacturing automobiles but the biggest item in 'be increased cost in

furniture is the increased wages, and wages are going higher in the furniture factories, and thousands of men are out on strike at this very moment. Production is way below nor-

“Mr. Murphy went on to say that New York Democrats very generally Lad a kindly feeling toward the Vice President. He indicated that, while the New York relegation was not pledged to anybody, there was strong admiration for the Vice President in the delegation.

OVERLAND

Summer Reasons

or This Sedan

Tnp\*x Springs Insure Riding Comfort on All Roada. Overland Four-Door Kedan Insures Comfort In All Weath.T

THE SUPERIORITY of the Sedan for autumn, winter and spring is even more emphasized in the wide range of summer motoring. It’s thick permanent top is a cooler shield from boiling sun. Breezes are freely admitted or entirely excluded at will. Rain, dust and sudden cold, are shut out at your command by heavy plate glass which never cuts off your vision or leaves you feeling “Shut in.” Now the Overland Sedan adds to all this convertible convenience, the riding comfort of Triplex Springs, and extraordinary light weight economy.

BUILDING PROGRESS BEING MADE

SHERRILL & SHERRILL Creencastle and Cioverdale.

Construction work in Grcencaotle is keeping pace with other lines of progress as will be seen by the follow ing resume made by the Chamber of Commerce in a casual canvass of the city. Of course it is too early in the season, ami the season has been some what backward, to get a full line on the amount of building being done, but enough construction is now in progress to give an idea of what may be expected for the year of 1920. Cement Mill Finishes Ten At the outset, the Indiana Portland Cement Company planned the constru etion of twenty houses in which to house a portion of its employes. Ten of these homer are now finished and are of course occupied, but because it was necessary to double the capacity of the plant itself it was found advisabb to stop the house building campaign to take up this more im-

portant matter.

The Cement mill, will however give an example of a one hundred per cent efficiency plant when it is realized that the finished side of the plant is running at full capacity making material out of which the other half is

being constructed.

Houses Being Finished

lh. Deiuich home on Poplar street is in the hands of the stticcoehs and is occupied; the Jolin Drowning home on south Socust street, the Gardner home on south College Avenue and the A. G. Brown home in tne nevi Northwocd addition are ready for the stucco men and should be completi within the m xt month. The Randall framed and will be under roof in a few days. The new houses on west Walnut are complete and occupied.

Filling Station Going Up

The grading and excavating for the new Standan, Oil Filling Station at the corner of Indiana and W’alnut

streets is finished and the

cture is well undi r way. The company will spend quite a sum of money landscaping the grounds and propose to make this one of the beauty spot? of the city. fp

Northwood Being Beautified

A force of men and teams are at work in the new Northwood addition just utt oi east Franklin street. Ridge avenue* and Northwood avenue a being graiicd, sewers are being laid, gas mains and electric lights are being run to serve the new residences in this popular home place. Salesmen arc on the grounds to show future builders the advantages of Northwood and it is freely predicted that these In's will be disposed of by July 1st, and that ninny new homes will ho under construction by the middle of the

summer.
