Time Ripe for Farmers to
Learn All About Honey Bees
Salrm. Ore., May 25 (U.R)
The time has come for farmers
to learn about the bees.
The season is at hand when
clover, alfalfa and vetch seed
growers of Oregon are arrang
ing to move bees into their fields
for pollination purposes.
Because bees are necessary
for pollination and because it
usually is necessary to overstock
with bees to get complete pol
lination. Apiary Supervisor A.
Burr Black of the state depart
ment of agriculture outlined the
responsibilities of renters and
owners of bees today.
Demand Exceeds Supply
Black said the demand for
bees now apparently exceeds the
available supply, so some seed
growers are buying bees of their
own. But past experience shows,
Black said, that when farmers
don't know about the bees, the
bees are apt to be lost from
starvation and disease within a
year or two.
Oregon law requires that the
owner or possessor of any lot of
bees is responsible for the bees.
The courts usually have held
that the one in possession of
the place on which the bees are
located is in possession of the
bees if the owner is unknown.
So far they haven't devised a
means of branding bees, not
even with bees wax.
Must Show License
The law also requires that
the owner of bees not located at
his home or main place of busi
ness keep his apiary posted with
his current apiary license num
ber or his name and address if
the hives are not branded with
a registered brand. Oh yes, they
can brand the hive. Anyone
hiring bees should see that the
beekeeper complies with this
provision and, for his own pro
tection, should know the name
Liberty Bell Arrives In
County; Bond Men Speak
Oregon s Liberty Bell, a near
ly exact replica of the famed
American Liberty Bell, arrived
in Jackson county today and
after a tour of schools was to
be shown publicly from 4 to 5
p. m. in downtown Ashland and
from 5:3U p. m. to 7:45 p. m.
at the railroad property at Main
and Front streets in Medford.
The bell is bemg displayed in
many Oregon communities in
connection with the Independ
ence savings bond drive of the
and address of the owner of any
bees rented.
The department is cooperating
with seed growers and beekeep
ers to help them get together
for their mutual benefit, Black
said. But he warned that if dis
eases of bees get out of control
in any districi, it will be im
possible to get any well inform
ed beekeeper to move bees into
that district.
Write For Laws
With bees moving from other
parts of Oregon and also from
Idaho, California and Washing
ton into Oregon seed growing
areas, it will take the active
cooperation of everyone con
cerned to keep seed producing
areas reasonably free from bee
diseases. Black said.
Persons buying or hiring bees
should write to the department
headquarters at Salem for copies
of the Oregon laws covering
honeybees. It is best to proceed
with caution, or you're apt to get
stung.

Washington, May 25 (U.R)
The average American city
dweller now pays $1.95 lor a bag

tistics said today.

food price index dropped six
