flT The bee industry in Crook County should be
jj entered into by a great many more than now do.
It doesn't seem to be generally known that they do
exceptionally well here, and the price of honey is
always high.
fTTT Bees trarel from two to four miles to gather
jj honey, so that if there is an alfalfa field within
this distance from yourplace, you can profitably care
for bees. We feel that a few stands of bees at every
ranch will give the greatest returns on tho money
invested of any branch of industry on the place. We
have recently received a complete assortment of
Bee Supplies of the "Root's Patent" make, which
are made different and from better material than the
common western make. We can supply all your needs
along this line.
