KEEPERS ItIUST MEET.. Progress Is Being Made, lent Further Co-operation anith Government Men Is Essentkii. (C'ontrtbitt,-,1 by Onturio Department al Agriculture, Toronto.) During tho past three Yeare there has been conelderable investigation work in cennection with the treat- ment of American foulbrood and Dr. C. Rutz -imam of Ohio, Introduced a solution, composed of alcohol -for - mann, which hes been used by many beeketnees to kill the spume and gernts ;musing American foul -brood In the drawn combs used by the bees. In the late winter and early :Flaring of 1924,, Prof. Jones, of the Bacteri- ology Department, conducted a num- ber of laboratory experiments in con- nection with the treatment of Amer- ican foulbrood infected combs. Prcea Jones used a number of well-known germicides and disinfectants, and his conclusions were that, so far as Amer- ican foulbrood was concerned, the spores were very hard to kill. Prof. Jones found that a solution of for- inalin and water, as well as alcohol-, formalin, gave positive results In laboratory tests and this former solu- tion was much more economical than alcohol -formalin. In the summer of 1924 Mr. G. L, Jarvis, and in 1925 Mr. G. Is. Jarvis and Mr. R. M. Pugh, of the Apicul- ture Department, carried out a taum- ber of experiments in the apiary, us - log ineected combs which had been treated with various strengths of for- malin and water and alcohol -forma- lin. Combless packages of bees, from the south, were placed on these treated combs and results noted. This experiment will be conducted again In 1926. The results of the apia.ry expert- ments, thus far, show that there lo a very serious danger when the bee- keeper saves iufected brood combs for treetment with either alcohol- lonrmsoamlii, etrjorinzi=.1:r toll•tiroonosa, hes re:,' eas ;n sorne of the colo- nies he etted combs, Destro; . JI Duccted Combs. The 1 • ipartment nas some to the conclusieu that it will pay the bee- keepers , destroy all brood combe infected ith American foulbrood for these r,:'ns: (1) If the beekeeper keeps ie. .eeed combs for later treat- ment, hls own and all healthy colo- nies in a radium of two or three miles are In danger of becoming in- fected; (2) the cost of the equipment and solution Is prohibitive unless a thousand or more combs are to lan treated; (3) we are not yet satisfied that we can treat infected brood combs with 100 per Sent. effective- ness. In view of these facts the Dee. pertinent, at present, is urging bee- keepers to destroy, by burning, all Infected brood combs. The treatment of super combs, used over an infected colony, is somewhat different. In theso combs there are no scales of American foul - brood present and our experiments show that these combs can be effec- tively treated with a 20 per cent. formalin -water treatment, Eradicate --Not ControL With the positive knowledge that beekeepers can effectively treat all uper Combs, which have been used ewer infected colonies, the Depart- ment is changing its method of apiary Inspection work, and last year an el - tort was made to eradicate, not con- trol, American foulbrood in the rounties of Hastings, Peterborough, Northumberland and Prince Edward. The results show that 5,003 colonies were examined, 617 were found in- fected with American foulbrood and tbe contents of these Infected colo - 155 were destroyed by burning, This burning of over 66 colonies in these counties might appear to be a serious loss, but it must be remembered that a colony with American foulbrood soon ceases to produce a surplus of honey and, while it remains, it is a menace to all other bealthy colonies in the vicinity. Once American foul - brood is eleaned nut, then the bee- keeper can go ahea,d and keep bees more profitably and more economic- ally. The DePartment hopes to bring other counties into this clean-up cam - palm] in 1226 and gradually widen the campaign until the whole pro- vince is included. To make the work as effective as possible, the Foul - brood Act has a quarantine measure which will prohibit a beekeeper move Ing any but comblese bees or inspect- ed healthy colonies into those coun-• ties where a clean-up of American foulbrood has taken Maim—Apicul- ture Department, 0.

Camp Sites and Fishing Grounds Will Be Designated Toronto, May 7.—A new depart- ure decided upon by the Ontario Department of Public Highways, whieh is expected to be of great con- veneence to the motoring public, is the giving and placing of road num- bers upon the main travelled county roads. These numbers, it is expect- ed, will all be in place befote the end of this summer. They evill run from 51 to 81 ani will be in square markers instead of triangles. • Approximately two mark - Ors will be used for each mile of road with a few extra for towns and vils Inges. In cities the placing of such markers would be a matter of ar- rangement between menicipalities and tho counties concerned. The Highways Department will buy and place the markers as part of t1,;. share of the county roado ex- peediteree borne by the Government under the various highways acts and amendments.

HOW ABOUT LEGUMES? IMPORTANT TO MAINTAIN NITRO- GEN IN TRH 1401L, Alfalfa, Red Cloveti, Sweet Clayey and Soy Beaus All Hart. a Malt YAWL) —Inoculation helpful, (acentrlietteet by Ontario Department or agr(eu,ture, Toronto.) As a source of nitrogen the legume crops; as alfalfa, Iva eiovor, sweet clover 1111(1 50)' beans have a high value. Different crops swan on dif- ferent soile show some variation in tb0 total nitrogen aCcUlnulated and Itold for return to the soil, A heavy crop of red clover has been ereimated to contain 170 pounds of nitrogen Per acre. Alfalfa is credited with the high figure of 200 pounds per acre, sweet clover tred vetch if heavy crops will pull down 170 pounds of nitrogen per acre. To return these quantities to the land it is necessary to plough in the entire crop, as at seed harvest time there is approximately 15 per cent. of the total nitrogen in that part of the pla,nt above ground. The nitrogen value added to thp -value of potash, phosphorous and humus -making ma- terials gives a very high value to the legumes when grown as soil improve- ment crops, so muds so that we won- der wiv' their popularity has been so long delayed. Turned under as green manure the clovers will coutribute the largest possible amount of nitrogen for the use of succeeding crops. If clovers are fed to stock on the feria and the manure returned to the soil, there will be much nitrogen for succeeding crops. Cut off and sold, there is likely to be loss in nitrogen fertility, as the amount left in the roots may not be sufficient to balance the con- ditioo of nitrogen sufficiency, existing before the crop was grown. The legume plant is the link be- tween air nitrogen and the soil. The great difference between le- gumes and non -legumes is that the legume has the ability to obtain nitrogen from the air. aerith 5,000,- 000 pounds floating over each acre this should not be difficult, but 11 is; and the co -partnership of the legume and bacteria are essential for the work of nitrogen extraction. The legume root nodule is essential, it results from the presence of the bat- teria. If there are no nodules pres- ent then there are no bacteria work- ing, and the legume plant then de- pends, as any other plant on the nitrogen stored In tbe soll. The le- gurne plant alone is a nitrogen rob- ber, but give it the bacteria to work on its roots, and it then becomes a great storehouse for nitrogen. In a soil poor in nitronan, the legume without nodules grows poorly or not at all. Natural Inoculation. The presence of nodule forming bacteria in the soil when um young legume plants am starting growth, results in a bacterial invasion of the fine rootlets of the plant. The plant In its effort to repair the lesion pro- duces the nodule formation which is literally, a house for the 'bacteria in which they live while extracting their food from the plant juices. They pay their board with blg interest for their home and food. They repay the plant, by giving it a coutinuous sup- ply of nitrogen in a form that it can use. This nitrogen cornea from the Sir.

If we buy more ants than we s.re selling apples, there are significant reasons for consider- ing the culture of nuts In oar Lake Erie countries.
