Xhe Hditor's Health has been so much impaired by three annual at- tacks of La Grippe, that if some radical improvement is not made very soon, a collapse is imminent. His physician prescribes "a complete rest and change of ; Accordingly, he will leave the city next week for a month's rest. The drudgery of desk-work has brought on neuralgia and brain troubles. A vigor- ous constitution, and strong will-power have contributed in no small degree to his holding out so long against the in- siduous working of that dire disease and its results. Meanwhile, the editorial work on the Bee Journal will devolve upon the Editor's assistant, Mr. George W. York, who has been connected with the office for several years, and is thoroughly con- versant with the duties of that depart- ment. Bounty on Honey is a subject that has been pretty well discussed in Oleanings and some other bee-periodi- cals. Mr. Baldridge also had an article on the subject on page 220 of the American Bee Journal. The idea was started at the Northwestern Convention last November, but it was so absurd that we then paid no attention to it in the American Bee Journal,. Instead of asking Uncle Sam to pay a bounty of 2 cents per pound on honey, we should join others in demanding that the bounty on sugar be repealed. It will surely be done in the near future. The figures are enormous, as will be seen by the following from the daily press : The U. S. Treasury issued a statement to March 1, showing that 2,523 claims for bounty have been received, amount- ing to about $7,000,000. Of these, 925 claims have been paid, involving about $3,000,000 —$2,700,000 of which was on cane sugar alone. Seven mi
