CITY HALL CROWD SCORED BY WOMEN Declare South Side Market Made Political Football. City Hall officials who seek to make the south side market a “political football” were scored by the members of the South Side Women's Club at a meeting yesterday afternoon at the home of Mrs. Bert Gadd, 2130 Prospect street. The women denounced the delay In securing a shelter market in the municipal building now occupied as a barn for the city's mules as due to certain men who bare made a political subject out of a non-partisan demand. It was suggested that the administration wait until a further decrease in the cost of material they purchase further equipment for motorizing the Are department so that they can also provide for municipal sub-markets. It was also decided to bring before the different branches of the city and county administration a proposal that reductions in salaries should begin inasmuch as there is now a general reduction in wages all over the country. PLAN TO BAKE OWN BREAD. Poor gas service was generally complained of by the women. A motion was adopted that the member* of the club should bake their own 'read and urge their neighbors to do the same in order to compel the bakers to reduce the price of bread In accordance with the decrease in tho cost of flour, was decided that the organization of°Women iliate Wlth the locai Councl l A committee wag appointed to attend the meetings of the board of safety from time to time when important measures are before it and report to the club.

in the cold weather the women have been unable to continue supervision. In discussing the work accomplished Mrs. Heiffel said the south side market caused competition and, therefore a reduction in price* in the central market. “We should have sub-markets which would make distribution instead of centralization of food products,” said Mrs. Reiffel. “If the city does not give them to us I believe the women of the different localities in the city should organize their own. As far as the political side Is concerned, we did not put it Into polities and we don't want it in politics now. We want the market and don't care whether the Republican, Democratic or Home Rule party gives it to us.” The next meeting of the club will be held Nov. 24 at the Madison Avenue branch library.

Pleasure and Profit Are to Be Derived From Bee-Keeping, Indianapolis Woman Expert in Art Now Has Seventeen Hives. “Bee-keeping Is a decidedly fascinating subject, merely as a study, but when Combined with the open-air practical application It is Irresistible," said Mrs. Louis Bnrchardt, 3159 North Pennsylvania street, discussing her unusual hobby. “You make It sound alluring, but the buzzing of a bee has a sinister sound. Weren’t you afraid of being stung (literally speaking) in your ‘practical application?’ ” she was asked. “No,” and she laughed. “I wasn't afraid of being stung, but I was stung, and badly, too, lu my early experience with swarming bees, for I went in without protection as many of the old beekeepers do, with the result that my face did not resume its normal size for some time, but my painful experience taught me,that armor was needed when personal contact with my. pets wm necessary. Now I wear a screen armor from my waist to my head, two pairs of heavy gloves and ankle-length woolen bloomers when I shoo’ the bees into their new homes In the spring.” STARTED HER HOBBY WITH 5 HIVES OF BEES. Mrs. Burehardt said her lntereat in bees dated from a visit some time ago when she was introduced to a bee colony by a friend of hers who was an expert on bee culture. The marvelous workings of the buzzing community fascinated her to such an extent that she talked of nothing else and on her wedding anniversary Dr. Bnrchardt drove her out to the farm and there, under the apple blossoms, stood two snow white hives of bees. And with those two hives she began her study under tbe direction of a competent bee keeper, who taught her the fine points of the game. "And I found so many remarkable things about my bees, each hive Is like a well ordered kingdom, under the rule of a good queen, each bee has Its particular duty, there are wax makers, chemists, nurses, guards at the entrance whp keep out enemies, undertakers who j carry the dead bees from the hive, \ house cleaners who clean the hive tfc iroughly, honey gatherers and cour-1 tiers to the queen who attend her wherever she flies. “Then in choosing the kind of bee, I

found that like many other things, the importeu species is Dost. The Golden Italia bee claims superiority over the native black bee of this country, in that it is gentle, while the American bee is .vicious. HERE’S SOMETHING YOU MAY NOT KNOW, “And did you know,” she continued, “that the fragrant red ciover Is not a honey treasury for the bee as Is generally supposed? The long petals are too deep for the proboscis of the bee. The small pink and white clover blossoms are | the honey mines.'' From the two hives of five years ago Mrs. Burchardt's colony has *■ increased ’ until now she possesses seventeen hives, from which this last season she obtained 700 pounds of pure honey. And the charming apiarist, who has Just returned from a trip overseas, declares that In no country abroad is the honey co delicately flavored as here in the United States. “If 'foul brood’ (a disease) is under control in Indiana, there a prosperous outlook for the Indiana beekeeper, for the delicious dear Hoosler honey rivals any honey of any State or country," Mrs. Burehardt said. The textbook studied by Mrs. Burehardt and which she recommends to the bee student, is called “The A, B, C and X, Y, Z of Bee Culture.” She also warns the uninformed and inexperienced wouldbe bee culturlst against going into the bus,ness unless supervised by a “bee veteran." Mrs. Burehardt is secretary and treasurer of the Marlon County Bee Association. t IRVINGTON LIBRARY CLOSES. The Irvington Branch Library.
