. American bee journal. Bee culture; Bees. Mar. 21, 1907 Amc»rican 'See Journal I have seen members of tlic legislature who have iiillueiice, and think they will get this Bill through for us. It has been recommended that when we get a Bill passed that will go on the statute books it will have become a law and will not have to be passed each session, as the Appropriation Bill has to be. They object to our appointing the Inspector, but we need not make a point of that. Let the Governor have the appointing power. If he does not appoint a man who is qualified for the work it will make so much opposition and trouble that he will be obliged to select for the position some one capable of filling it.

Mr. Baxter—I do not agree with you at all. I believe we can get what we ask, and should make our wants known to the members. You put it into the hands of Senators Berry and Dunlap, of spraying in time of bloom may be beneficial, and result in producing bet- ter fruit. Mr. Johnson—It has been said that writing letters will not do much good. In that regard I would refer to the Ladies' Home Journal which asked its readers to write letters to help create public
