OF BEE TAMING 100 REALISTIC The "bu.sy bee" bad his Inning thU morning when Cameraman I limes took a eloseup of the right and the wrong way lo handle the honey makers in finding and seg regating the queen ond in getting stung. Lowell Stalker, bee club member of Hermiflton, Umatilla county, was tho victim. Although Lowell was able on going into the fray to declare that he had not been stung In several years of handling bees, when he emerged he carried five wounds to bis credit So long as be was doing neces sary work wlih hfa bee colony Lowell was able to get away with It without damage. He applied little smoke, then lifted a section of comb and bee, searched out the queen, lifted her from her mates, and replaced the section without a bobble. Then came the fun. Grabbing a worker by tho wingH he advanced It within a few Inches of tho lense, where he teased It Into stinging the back of bis hand. Ho then properly brushed the bee off and likewise the sizable lump of poison deposited by the angry insect. He next repeated the per formance with the exception that he became "excited" as most per sons do when bit by the bee ex cept the political sort and mado a bad matter worse by pulling at the stinger and stabbing at the wound. He got three free and un premeditated Jabs In the operation.
