WESTERN NORTH CAROLINA CENTER OF THE BEE CULTURE AREA IN U S. . ew Quality of Famous Basswood Honey Produced1 Here Is Sur prise to Canadian Apiarists State Is Fourth In Number of Colonies,, But Only Eleventh In Value. E G. Carr, bee, inspector for the' state of New Jersey, has recently completed a tour of western North L...iino fnr the Dumose of collecting Lta for a bulletin on bee culture In bl state to be pubiumea soon oy u ibareau of entomology, or me ueii. Unt of agriculture at Washington. The Importance that; the honey pro 'luclnif Industry attained in this state illl be a surprise to the goneral pub- C. L. .Sams of Mars Hill, one of iiie largest and most successful apla rHiu In this section yesterday gave a (iazette-News reporter some interest iiiK facts in connection with been and Ihoney in this section. Mr. Sams ac companied Mr. Carr . on his trips :hrough the western counties. Tills Sortion Is Center, iinr. than one half of the bees in the United States are to be found within a circle of which western North Carolina is the center. The 'tate ranks fourth in the number of colonies In the United States; and strange to say, eleventh in the value nf th(t niilnrloR nnd tha Droduct an- !mially turned out, according to the ijures of the last census. This is sur jWent commentary on the methods in use among many bee keepers. Mr. :Sam stated that most of the hives ,m of the box type and that but for 'h favorable conditions In this region the bees would die. Mr. Carr found that the deadly In fectious disease known as foul brood 'li prevalent in Madison county and to tome extent In Buncombe. This jfliiorder attacks the larvae and Is mtit from hive to hive and Is also' j transmitted in the honey to such an "wi mat many states, inciuaing i I North Carolina, have law regulating these shipments. The federal depart ment of agriculture has a bulletin, No. 442, dealing with bee diseases, and this may be got by writing to the secretary of agriculture or to con pressmen. Foul brood has already done much damage in this state and the bee keepers are urged to secure these bulletins and put in force the measures therein explained for cheek ing the disease. J. L. Byar and his father, Peter Byer, of Mount Joy, Ontario, Canada, who are among the largest bee cul turlsta in Canada, were recently in terested visitors to the mountain re gion of this state. They were guests for a while of Mr. Sams and were greatly surprised at tho abundance and flavor p the basswood and locust honey found here. Later when the Canadian bee men were conducting a honey show at Toronto Mr. Sams 'sent J. L. Byer a sample of basswood honey which attracted much attention at the exhibitions. Interesting Article. Mr. Byer, who edits the depart ment, "Canadian Beedom," in Amer ican Bee Journal, wrote the fdllowlng article in regard to the honey sent by Mr. Sams. Tho clipping is taken from "Gleanings in Bee Culture," for June of this year r "Recently I received from Mr. Sams of Mars Hill. N. C, a pall of 'chunk' honey of delicious quality and appear ance. The source of this honey basswood: rather surprised me, as we do not generally find basswood honey so far south. I frankly ac knowledge that the quality is equal to our own basswood honey, both in col or and flavor. By the way, the term 'chunk' honey does not appeal to me at all, and I wonder that our southern friendsr-more particularly those of Texas, where this style of putting honey on the market originated, If I am correct- do not get some more at tractive name for honey marketed In this way. From North Carolina we have had samples of three beautiful lots of honey basswood, locust and sourwood; and for my own part at least, the term 'southern honey has a much better sound' than it did a few years ago." (An editor's note says that a large number of southern producers now. favor the term "bulk comb" honey). The layman, and perhaps the aver age housekeeper will be surprised to learn that honey is used in a great variety of recipes for cakes and other deserts almost without number. It is also stated that the biscuit manufac turers of the United States every year use hundreds of carloads of honey in their products. The value of honey in medicinal and food purposes has long been known. That it can be used as a food in treatment of certain dig' eases where sugar is absolutely pro hibited is not so well known. Many physicians, it is said, allow their pa. tlents to eat honey when sugar would be dangerous. With its abundant growth of bass. wood, locust and dogwood, the west' ern part of this state should become an even larger producer or honey than it 13. The old Biblical description of a good country to live in, "a land flowing with milk and honey," ; has never been improved upon. It appears more than probable that the dairying interests and the bee keepers will give new force to the saying as ap. piled to the mountain section of North Carolina.
