November is passing away fast with all kinds of weather -â€"-snow. slush and rain. Sleighs were in use for a couple of days last week. We are looking for ploughing weather yet but as a mat- ter of fact. it is getting nearly out of season and calls all classes of mile to be preparing for winter.

"3 care. but we are glad to say South Bentinck vng,‘ . aim all' reported 'it a' Looked Bad A much respected citizen had left three umbrellas to be repaired. Lat- er in the day, he had luncheon in a restaurant. and as he was departing, absent-mind'edlly took an umbrella from aphook next to his hat. Since the advent of comb found- ation, it is possible to have ever comb a good one. By wiring eac frame with at least four horizontal wires, using full sheets of light or medium brood foundation and em- bedding the wires firmly into the foundation, straight. strong combs, consisting mainly of worker cells, can be obtained. Foundation should not be given to the bees excepting when there is a good flow of nec- tar, or otherwise buckling may oc- cur and crooked combs result. To get the combs attached to all sides of the frame, they should only be drawn out in the extracting supers; bees seldom attach the combs to the lower bars when drawn in the brood chamber. The 1923 and 1924 reports of the Bee Division, Central Experimental Farm. Ottawa. contain results of experiments on comb building. C. B. Gooderham, Dominion Apiar- ist, prevent he colonies from build- ing up rapidly, encourage the pro- duction of drone instead of worker bees, increase natural swarming, in- crease labor and too often result in a lot of broken combs and loss of honey during extracting time. It is. therefore, advisable and profita- ble for every beekeeper to use on- ly those combs that are straight, strong and contain as few drone cells as possible, and to consign all crooked, drone or weak combs to themelting pot. The difference between good and bad combs is often the difference between success and faiure to se- cure a good even of honey. Every- thing else being equal, good combs enable a beekeeper to build up his colonies with worker bees with a minimum amount of labor; they les- sen th‘e tenrlencies to swarm and al- wv w- .0. “II“ “1‘ so reduce the 10-8-3687 Eesulting from luwwken combs a‘t extracting time.

COMES, GOOD AND BAD THE, DURHAM CHRONICLE Yet geography plays small part in Mr. W‘att’s ideas. lie is cer- tain that “we are. the Americans, and the United States is America.” The right to the name was estab- lished earlÂ¥l in the eighteenth cen- tury, and t e exclusive privilege to these names is logical and natural and right, historically and political-.- ly,__phi_l_qsoDhic_ally and poc_tically._ If Mr. Watts will take his geo- graphy and look at the. continent on which he lives. he will notice that it is marked North America; he will also see that there are two chief divisions following in a gen- eral way the forty-ninth parallel with the exception of the Great Lakes district which causes the nor- thern division to dip a considerable distance to the south. One of these is marked United States, and the other Canada. Continental United States, that is excluding Alaska, con- tains 3,026,789 square miles, while Canada has 3,810,395. Together with Mexico and the neck of land that tapers ofl' toward Panama, they form the continent of North America [HarVey M. W‘atts of Philadelphia, in a letter to the New York Times, has nothing but contempt for the “hysterical, self-abnegating Amer- icans" who doubt the wisdom of claiming for citizens of the United States the exclusive right to the name “Amer1cans ” He claims “we have every right to the title Am- e1 1cans and to the name America." Hogging The Name “America” - After all, the new model flivver still looks suspiciously like a flivver. A girl isn’t necessarily timid be- cause she jumps at a proposal. It might pay Mr. Watts to look around; he could find plenty of ma- terial that would add to the sum total of his fund of knowledge with- out any crowding. Had Mr. Watts been very studi- ous, he could have read in the Sat- urday Evening Post. published in his own city of Philadelphia, the following from the issue of October 24: “Canada has never indulged in shortcuts to growth and prosper- ity. Her immigration policy has always been a cautious one, dictat- ed largely b a desire to keep the Original stoc undiluted. Canadians seem to feel that the wiser course is to grow slowly rather than to profit by a boom in population. and anyone who considers the problems that our old free and easy policy has created for us must applaud her decision.” If Mr. Watts cares to. go further, he will find very serious-minded jurists going over crime‘ statistics and stating Openly that British ideals of Justice, such as are ob- served in Canada, are immeasurably better than their own. Had he been a close student of current history. he would have recalled that United States passed a- quota law against immigrants from all countries in the world with the one exception of this “insignificant settlement of Europeans.’ Were he to look into census figures of his America of the Americans, he would have found by the 1920 census that 76.4 per cent 0 the population of New York was foreismbomn ‘_ currency of the land of which he cprrency of the land or snags With such abandon.
