. American bee journal. Bee culture; Bees. October, 1916. American ^ee Journal as susceptible as blacks. Caging queens for a period of time sometimes effects a cure but killing old gucens and giving young vigorous ones is anotbcT toulb ood siems to grow less rampant after being in a locality two or three years and grad- ually wears itself dowii. Mr. DeMut i has visited a large number of beo- keepers in the wetern end of the state and they all report a small amount of Eluropean The most of them treat it by one of the foregoing methods and consider it tlie same as weed in your garden; eradi- cate it this year and you may or may not have any next year. With a little help it can be held in check so as not to be as serious as might be otherwise expected. ^ Michigan Beekeepers to Eat Thanks- giving Dinner in Lansing On November 30, December 1, and 2, Michigan beekeepers will gather at Lansing for the fifty-first meeting of the State association. The opening day coming on Thanks- giving will enable beemen to renew acquaintance with one another over the festive board, and will be an every share should, and in many cases does, return a fine profit the next season. Many of our most successful bee- keepers will be in attendance, beemen who count their crops in tons rather than in pounds, and a few minutes conversation with these men will be worth all the expense and trouble of coming to the meeting. If you are looking forward to making beekeep- ing a profitable part of your work in the future, by all means take in these meetings in Lansing. We do not want the beekeepers to forget the exhibit side of the conven- tion. We shall have plenty of room to display honey and other exhibits, and as we are planning to give di- plomas and medals to be won outright, besides the challenge medals, we are expecting a nice showing of honey that will add to the general interest of the convention. We hope to include other features which will tend to enliven the pro- ceedings
