ORGANIZATION SHOWS
BIG GROWTH IN YEAR.
In a letter sent to several thousand
beekeepers In Indiana, Mr. Yost calls at
tention that It was only a year ago that
ibe Indiana Beekeepers’ Association held
its annual convention in Indianapolis
and reorganized along more progressive
lines. The membership Is now about
ten times as large as last year and
there Is a very substantial sum in the
treasury, he says.
The letter urges persons Interested in
more advanced beekeeping and augment
ed honey production, to lend their sup
port toward procuring Improved legis
lation to further the business. It points
out that while inspectors of the State
Department of Conservation Inspected
more apiaries last year than ever before,
they did not visit all localities because
there were too few of them to respond
to all calls for their aid.
Unless the department Is allowed more
money for this work there will only be
three" inspectors in the field next year
where there should be six or seven, Mr.
Y'ost says.

a substitute for high-priced sugar and.
In adltlon to local production, many car
loads of Imported honey were consumed.
According to Mr. Yost no other State In
