BEE AS A" FARM'ASSm"

-('f
The bumblebee is one o
most valuable little farm ,. , i
anta known to the agn
He is necessary to the j -r -of
blossoms in the .on-.;
meadows. He destroys i
fruit and seldom a track .s i Le
or apple until it s oo ripe 1 or l :
ke.. or family use. His mission'
earth is that of peace and prosi
ity. In Germany his life is p
tected by legislative enactment
Here he is chased by the farm-'
boys and killed on sight. His ser
ices as a' farm and orchard assis.
ant are not appreciated.
Bed clover blossoms do not forir
seed until the pollen is thoroughl.
mixed. For this reason, it is a '
gued in many sections of the couj
try, the first crop of clover is
failure as a seed producer. Tl
bumblebee does not come from h"
winter resting place in time t ;
work on the clover blossoms, an
hence the pollen is not handled i
it should be to form seeds. In tb
early days of agriculture this 'wc
merely a theory. Now it is pul
lished as a fact and not denied b
anyone at all familiar with plan
life. , .
Some , interesting experiment:
have been conducted at agricu5
tural colleges to demonstrate tli
value of the bumblebee in grow
ing red clover seed. Last year a
the Iowa station patches of clove
beads w,ere covered with mosqu;
to netting and similar sized areat
left uncovered. The experimenta
plats were six feet squaref Cov
ered patches for the first croi.
gave no seed,, while those uncov
ered returned ten per cent, of an
ordinary crop. For the second
crop the covered plants seeding
were only two, while those uncov
ered numbered 612 that produced
cod. : . .
Plants near the nests of bumble
bees always produced the besT
crops of seed. In a space of si
square feet over 2,000 heads of red
clover formed excellent seed. The
bumble bees had built nests in the
clusters of clover , roots. Those
ho are inclined to kill every be:'
hat comes about should study the
ature of bees and plant, life,
"he bees are perfectly harmless.
They never try to wage warfare on
nnv person except in defense of
their homes or lives. Let them
alone and they will make the farm
?r ana tne orcnaraist rich am:
thereby help in building up the
ountry. .' ; . ; ,

Tw Attack on the Sun.
With the aid of $ 10,000 granted
by the Carnegie institution the
Yerkea observatory has sent an
expedition to Mount Wilson, near
Pasadena, California, for special
investigations of the sun, : under
the; personal direction of Prof.
George. "E, Hale. A horizontal re
lecting telescope of 145 feet focal
length is to be employed to pro
duce an image of the sun 16 inches
in diameter, which will be investi
gated, with a spectroheliograph of
dO feet focal length. The spectro
heliograph is an- instrument with
which it is possible to study the so
lar surface in light of certain se
lected wave-lengths, the other
light being shut out. Thus a pho
tograph of the sun taken with the
light emanating only from the
calcium vapor in the photosphere
presents a very different aspect
from that taken with the light of

Private Car and Rebates.
Calculations as lo the effect of
car mileage on beef prices te the
consumer areallbosb, says Charles
. Russell in his detailed consid
eration of Garfield's report on the
Beet Trust, in Everybody's June
installment of "The Greatest
Trust m the World." Whether
the profit on car mileage is four
cents a hundred pounds or four
mills a million tons is not worth
a moments thought. ; The real
point, over which this report
skates with airy ease, is that the
privately owned car in the dress
ed-beef trade is merely a disguise
for illegal railroad rebates, that
it was designed for that purpose
and none other, that it is and was
merely a way to cover lawbreak
ing, and that the breaking of the
law at which it connived enabled
the Trust to be formed, compet
nors to De crusnea, ana tne peo
ple to be robbed. The private re
frigerator car meant $15 rebate on
every carload 01 beet shipped
from Chicago to New York; The
houses in the combination got
that rebate; their competitors did
not get it, and that ended the
competitors. If we are to have
government reports we might as
well have them tell the truth.
APPAREL BARS MAIL WOMEN
Dos Koines, Iowa, Postmaster Finds
That Carriers Must Work in
Male Clothing. -
The postmaster of Des Moines.
Iaf. finds himself in a somewhal
peculiar position. With a view tc
economy he decided to invite worn
en to apply for positions as post
men.. A number of women ap
plied, and, having been put
through an examination, which
they passed satisfactorily, the
documents were then sent to the
postmaster general for ratifica
tion, and that exalted function
aryj1 seeing that the' names werf
presented with the initial only for
the Christian name, failed to de
tect that the subordinate had in
troduced a change. The women.
therefore, being appointed start
ed work in due course, and it was
only when the uniform depart
ment came to deal with the new en
trants that trouble arose. The
uniform of all letter-carriers is set
tled by law. It consists of three
garments, which need not be spec
ified otherwise than to say that
the postmaster . of Des Moines
found they were unsuitable for
hi ne we rapt yes. :
The postmaster general ia con
sidering it, but it looks as if the
women would not be retained. The
suits of uniform are lying in the
pott office of Des Moines, and th?
women are delivering letters clad
in their ordinary raiment.
CREDIT AT PAWNBROKERS'
Favorite Patrons Can Obtain Almost
Any Amount They Desirs on Jvw
, slry or Personal Property. ,
The men that can and do estab
lish a line of credit ; with pawn
brokers is a proposition beyond
belief to the man who has been of
f ered only $20 on a watch that cost
f 75. The fact remains, however,
says the Philadelphia Record, that
all pawnbrokers have favored pa
trons on their books who. can al
ways gettheamountofmoney they
want upon almost any old thing
that takes the shape of jewelry or
other "hockable" personal prop
erty. A local sport tried to raise
$50 on his split-second stop watch
the other day, and was offered $30
less tnan tne value ot tne case
melted. A friend who had an es
tablished credit 'took 'the same
watch to the same pawnbroker
and got $75 on it without a ques
tion being asked. If was the man,
not the watch, that made the loan
possible. : ;:.. - ? j
