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.

bunched nearly all the way round,
one after the other passing the
other and then dropping back.
Mary J., Lady Lincoln and Al Silk,
came under the wire so close to
gether that the winner of the heat
was barely a foot In the lead. The
crowd was thrilled as the rest of
the field thundered across the line
on the leadors heels.
Bill Schultz, a black gelding,
took every heat la the 2:25 trot,
and first money in the $500 puree.
Wilbur Daphney, with Wallace in
the sulky was second, and Dick
Dudley, with Ireland came In thrld.
The Cavalie, popular Salem horse,
took second place In the first heat
but was distanced In the second
when he broke and ran nearly the
entire way around the track. The
fastest time was 2:18 i. for the
final heat.
