NEW BEE INSPECTOR GENERAL LIGGETT LAW IS EFFECTIVE CHAR r-c BY VALLET The county court la now engaged In looking over a field, which, however, la without applicants, for the appoint ment of a bee Inspector. On May 21 a legislative law providing for county bee inspeetoA became effective. The time limit for registration of bee col onies waa placed at 80 days after the date on which the law became effec tive. Hood River county has no commer cial apiaries, but many orehardists en deavor to keep a few hives of bees, not for the honey but that the insects may promote the pollenization of fruit bios-, soma. Under the law individual own ers of colonies of bees, or corporations owning them must at once report them to the county clerk. A failure to comply with the regulations may lead to a fine vt >10 to |100. County Judge Hasbrouck says be knows of at least two bee trees in the valley. He won ders if it will be necessary for the timber companies owning the land to be subject to the new law. License fees are 81 for eacb colony of bees or eitch location of one or more hives, with or without broods. It is unlawful in this connection to have hives to which there is not free access to all parts. Fees derived from the sale of li censes and part of the fines assessed against violators of the law are to go into a bee fund from which the sal aries or fees of the bee Inspector and other incidental coats of operation of the law are to be paid.

Chickens, he declared, are effective In keeping down the weevils. The ]>oultry should lie run in berry fields except when the fruit is ripening. Where old tracts show the prevalence of weevil, Mr. Smith said, the vines should lie cut, allowed to dry and then burned. ~ ~ '* 1 — TeL 2551 Yakima Fruit Prospects Good The fruit prospects of the Yakima FOURTH STREET Valley are excellent for this Hcaaon, according to P.

General and Mra. Liggett came here as guests of General and Mra. Geo. A. White. Wednesday afternoon they were driv en by Major Van Horn to Mt. Hand Lodge, returning Jo the Columbia Gorge Hotel, where Capt. Geo. II. Wil bur, commander bt the Department of Oregon. American Legion, joined the viaitors and Major Van Horn for din ner. Thursday, while other members of the party enjoyed a late sleep In the cool mid-Columbia atmosphere, Gen* eral Liggett was up early, drinking in the views of surrounding gorgeside and forest land and pastoral scenes of orchard district. “You people here in Oregon ought to tell the rest of the world what you have,” he declared. “I didn’t know until tliis visit to Portland that you had such a place as the Columbia Gorge Hotel. Your valley is a won derland. Its setting amidst the foot hills and surrounding peaks is superb. You would have thousands and thous ands of visitors If they knew what awaited them. I never really made a Columbia River Highway trip until yesterday when we came on up here and toured up through your valley. On two former occasions, however, I journeyed out from Portland as far as Multnomah Falls.” General Liggett, who was in com mand of the flrat army in France, la general chairman of the coming na tional American Legion convention to be held in San Francisco. He said his journey to Portland was taken just to see General White and to secure a little rest from the work of preparing for the great convention. General Liggett is a real he-Ainerlcan and a loyal Legion worker. He declared that every ex-service man should affil iate himself with the organization and engage in a public expression on na tional topics. “Our country is being ruled too inucll now a days,” said General Lig gett, “by noise-making minorities while the good citizenry sits supinely by and lets them get away with their nonsenlcal hobbies. It is time for all of us to bear the burden of a little work and allow our frank expressions to be felt on public problems. The American Legion can, if ex-service men but give time and devotion to the task of thinking and leading in the right direction, become a great factor in American public life.” * General Liggett, when informed of I’acillc University at Forest Grove in establishing a chair of American His tory and Patriotism, declared the hope that the movement would prove con tagious. He congratulated the Hood River American Legion Poet on estal*- lisliing the Mount Hood Climb. He predicted that the legionnaires would realize their ambition in making the event a national recreational feature of Oregon out of door life. General Liggett last Wednesday night dropped In on Company C, 188th Regiment, Oregon National Guard, en gaged in drill and inspected the youths whom be complimented on being citi zen soldiers.
