Oregon laws administered by the
state industrial accident commission,
since those enacted by the rpectal
ression of 1320 went into effect last
week, now provide for the protection
ot workmen, both while they are at
their best physically: and when they
are disabled by industrial-accidents,
even going so far as to equip dis
abled men with life Taxations:
The rehabilitation department of
the commission is in two parts, the
physic-therapy, in which men are re
habilitated as 'far as possible, and
the """vocational, which ffords In
jured workmen opportunities to
take courses of instruction that will
fit them to be jndependent. ..

The commission has fitUdi up

Salem MU) Laura, Heist and Mist

there was a whole lot of work In th-

So the retired bee king, with his
retired queen in the auto seat be

for his bees.
He said he had an old Ford, of a

bees and the Ford for $2000.
The retired bee autocrat did not

The Salem slogan editor of The
Statesman, who is buggy on bees,
and who thinks everybody else in
this district, and more especially the
growers oft fruit.' ought to be bug
gler on bees, if possible, has a good
bee story. Story is the newspaper
term for a news Item.
' t is a case where one who tells
a story tells the truth.
Well, a Willamette valley men
went up to eastern Oregon, near the
Idaho line, some years ago. and.
seeing oodles and oodles of acres of
alfalfa bloom . in his neighborhood,
wasting Its sweetness on the desert
air for lack of bees to extract the
honey therefrom,' and of opportun
ity to work themselves to death in
six weeks at the job. If given the
chance, engaged In the bee business
up there.
It was not all smooth sailing. H
had his upi and downs and his
troubles.
Some years he got stung.
But he persisted, and learned the
bee business and to make a long
story 'short he succeeded, and he
cleaned -up something around $100.
