FRUIT TREES AND HONEY
- The up to date fruit growers of the Salem district have come
td fully, realize the absolute, necessity of honey bees, in order
to insure the pollination of j their fruit blossoms
J , ';S6, there must be here ,literally billions more bees.
, ; 4The 44 virgin daughters of toil,'' the worker bees, are the
original 'f working fools" they literally work themselves to
death in six weeks during the honey season
Vf And a good queen bee will lay from 2000 to 3000 eggs a
day'-;;;
I So that in each hive a working "fool is born every minute"
and then, ome
. And a good hive of bees will at the height of the season
contain 30,000 to 60,000, and even 100,000 bees
, i 4 So that, though there may be torrential rains all through
v the! fruit blooming season, with; only an occasional breaking of
sunshine through, the weepy clouds, during those few hours of
sunshine the bees will carry the pollen ad make the blossoms
. fniHflllfr
. 'Vot rhe .beeij, work" and literally f Improve each shining
hour." Tkeyhai'e the urge of their ancestors-back through the
ages, for wprk'i'Uiat is the life of the honey; beetand that is her
death. " . '. -'' . "v ',ai; v . ' . '
It would pay the fruit growers of the Salem district to
subsidize the beekeepers, with a money subsidy '
M Hut they do not have to.
t Here is a better way;; ' i
, Kaise more white, alsike aiicTsweet clover, and more Hun
garian 'vetch, and scatter more Scotch broom, and in other ways
provide more late bee pasture ,; '
And encourage. more beekeeping; get better bees, and see
that bee diseases are ttaniped out-4j - - ;
And in that way the orchard men will subsidize themselves;
iheywill improve the fertility of their soil, and they will get
tlltoc crops for One the clover, the honey and the fruit
And they will make sure the fruit. ;
There is no section inMhe world that has a better honey
flow than, the Salem district in the spring and, early summer.
Intend this, by-providing proper bee pasture; throughout all
trjr sunshiny days, of the late summer and fall; and this will be a
veritable land flowing with inilk and honey and money. The
h6iiey crop -trill be a money crop an essential story of ' three,

Hudson Maxim bears an honor-i
ed name, but he is old and childish.
The last time we saw bim. which
was threeyears aro. h vh nM
enough td'diebnt he is still walk
ing around. , Recently he made an
address Defore a society of Free
Thinkers,-Trhich .would be better
named a society of Free Drinkers.
He made a protest against the use
of tei and coffee.' An individual
protest is all right, but Mr. Maxim
claims to ! have' , legal advice that
both of these, drinks are outside
the law. It is a foolish contention
and one that will not get very far.
It appears that Mr. Maxim had
been offered a enp of coffee at the
Free Drinkers' 'dinner, whereupon
he protested that he had consulted
many of the most prominent legal
authorities in the country 'and de
clared that "I speak with their
aulhority'jwhen I, tell yon that if
all . manner, jor acoholic Jlquors
were served at this'dinner the pro
visions of th's isttr -amendment
would not be violated " or dlrse
speted one whit mote than It ' Is
violated In serving us coffee." -
That Is nonsensical. Tea and
coffee, it is true, have stimulating
properties A powerful drug can
be extracted from them but it Is
ridiculous1 to say that they are
Intoxicating within the meaning of
tho 18th amendment. ,

' One of the famous indoor. Bports
after a presidential, , election is
cabinet building. Afterwards a
lot of men devote their time to
cabinet destruction. In every cab
inet weak men find a place, and'
the destroyers soon find tho weak
est link, upon which they pounce
to break the cabiuct chain. One
man has been driven from the cab
inet, and another should go, but
this docs not mean that halting
cabinet officials is 'a healthy In
door sport. ,
A GOOD PLAN
The Oregon Statesman is in
hearty sympathy with the plan to
organize a Marlon county republi
can club to which -every republican
voter in the county is eligible and
which every republican voter is
UTged to Join. The plan if this
organization is not to the, Inter
est of any candidate until after
the nomination, but to present the
republican party to the, voters of
Marion county in such a way that
they will carry fair values and not
be blinded by oil or the much mud
that is being thrown. We heartily
approve of the proposed organi
zation. DAUGHEitTY SHOULD GO
President Coolidge would be
justified in summarily dismissing
Daugherty from the cabinet. He
never should have been where he
is In the first place. He is not
personally mixed up with any scan
dal, but neither has he performed
credibly to the administration. In
the reorganization he ought to
step aside and permit a man who
is untainted to occupy the position
of attorney general. Mr. Daugh
erty is not accepted as the repre
sentative of the best republicans
in the country.
GET THE BOOZE'
Since the senator was shot in
Washington there has been much,
talk about getting'the guns. Back
of the guns is the booze, and it is
responsible for every crime that
is committed in that way. Gun
toting is wrong, but in a large ma
jority of cases where tragedy re
sults, booze 'fires the brain. Get
the booze and the guns will take
care of themselves.
WHERE IS IIE?
What has become of Senator
Zimmerman who was carrying the
doctrine of La Follette all over
the state? La Follette is not going
to file in Oregon for the presi
dential nomination.
Portland is just now starting a
choice new scandal. A man who
had been indicted wanted permis
sion to sell bonds, and some of the
Portland people sent confidential
letters of recommendation.

There is money in honey -
And health and happiness, as

The J-eport of the spies to Moses
on the "land flowing with milk
and honey" knew something about
vitamines and a lot of other things
either this, or they stumbled onto
the essentials of vigor around 3000
years before we modern ' folks
caught on.
The fruit grower with plenty
of honey bees will make himself
practically immune against being
stung by crop failures.
"W S
And he will have an insurance
policy against , the failure of a
honey crop if he will raise plenty
of Hungarian vetch and the sweet
clovers.
V
This will mean dairying, and he
will have a goodly land flowing
with milk and honey, and bring
ing In a flow of money every day
in the year.
The biggest thing in fruit grow
ing Is pollination, and the biggest
thing in pollination is the honey
bee. "Male and female created
He them, and this extends
throughout nearly all living things
even to the vegetable kingdom
even to fruit and nut blossoms.
The honey of Hymettus will be
discounted by the honey that goes
to the world markets under the
Salem brand, when the bee keep
ing industry is fully developed.

Editor Statesman. We are

Most of us have sold here for
a long time. We want to sell all
the papers that we can.
We have been told by the
Capital Journal's men, Mr. Scott
and Mr. Putnam, that 'we must
take more papers than we can
sell or lose our jobs.
We have had to do that for
many nights all winter "nd it us
ually costs us frorn 10 to 40 cents
to keep our corners per day.
That is not fair.
Will you publish this so every
body will know that when a boy
is begging you to buy papers as
late as 8 o'clock, you will know
that he is trying to prevent too
much loss.
Many times we have to take as
much as 150 to 200 papers more
than we can sell (that is all of us).
We must pay for them too. Is
that right to do?
The Portland papers do not
force us to take more than we
can sell. We cannot make much
selling only these. You see why
we need the Capital Journal.
We will give any? paper a square

THE GOOD THUS
"With: Mitk and Honey
Blest" Phrase Takes on
New Meaning
Editor Statesman:
Your letter of February ll at
hand. There is more or less doubt
in my mind whether or not you
will be able to prove that this is
the best bee country on earth. Of
course it would depend somewhat
on whether you used Just the Wil
lamette valley as your base for
argument, or the whole United
States. Since the question is not
just clear to me. I will not wriite
this time. However, I am enclos
ing a, leaf let with an article en
titled, "Milk and Honey," which I
would like very much for you to
include in your bee Slogan num
ber of The Statesman.
Thanking you for this privilege
to contribute, I am. respectfully,
F. T. G LASER.

Glaser follows;) V
Milk arid Honey.
The bee and the cow rank side
by side as the sources of two of
our most valuable and natural
foods. Education on the.subict
of milk has been widespread in re
cent years. Honey needs a little
more publicity.;
On the side of merely Interest
mg information stand the two
facts that it requires 55,000
round trips by bees to bring one
pound of honey to the hive, and
that this pound of liquid-sweet
ness represents the collected uec
tar from more than 600.000 sep
arate blossoms'.

Honey is the only sugar supplied

nearly equal parts, two of the sev

Leyulose ia. a fruit sugar, fair
ly Well tolerated by diabetics, and
so 'has real medical value, (glu
cose is compared '.to dextrose and
dextrin. The former is the "body
fuel par excellence," according to
high' food' authorities. It is the
only form of-sugar which can be
assimilated into the blood without
any preparation. All other sugars
must be converted -by digestive
processes into dextrose before they
are used ' by the human system.
Dextrin is valuable for its power
to drive' out putrefactive agent
in the intestines and to help the
healthful acid-forming bacteria in
their work. Honey also contains
vltamine l$ thfe invisible pro
tector against anemia, beri-beri
and nervous diseases. '
