TEACHERS' MEETING '
lARGELUTTENDED
Over One Hundred Instructors
Were In Reynoldsville
Saturday.
The teachers' meeting for tbo south
ern and eastern sections of the county
at Reynoldsville Saturday was largely
attended, and much interest and
enthusiasm was . manifested. Supi.
Jones explained In detail the . new
course of study making clear tbe fact
that the new course if Intelligently
followed, would be of great assistance in
carrying on tbe school work. The
matter of adapting the course to the
needs of the ungraded schools was
discussed at length; alternation by
grades as outlined by the Superinten
dent in the county papers at the time
tbe call was made for the teachers'
meeting was finally agreed upon, and
all teachers are expected to follow, this
plan.
Professor Rife addressed the teachers
on the subject "The Preparation of the
Teacher;" this was a most timely
address, and was very favorably
received.
Mr. Kelly, a graduate of the Zaner
school of writing and of tbe drawing
course at Ohio University, gave a very
practical and helpful lesson In each of
these subjects: a special effort has
lately been made to bring about a
greater interest' in these two subjects,
and also to get better results; the teach
ers present were much interested, and
voted to hold another meeting at Reyn
oldsville Saturday October 14 at 1:30 p.
m. for furtbur Instruction in these
subjects.
A general round table conference was
held, and tbe methods in the various
branches were gone into, the principals
in' the discussions and the teachers
in general taking active part. The
method in the beginners class was gone
oyer In some detail, and It was made
plain that a teacher, who did not know
the different methods and use the best
from each, was not up to the standard
for this country; the teaching of phonics
was especially emphasized, and a drill
in this work was given.
Sup't. Jones informs us that two
general meetings are held this fall, and
that every teacher is expected to attend
one of them; the teacher who does not
do this is shirking a part of tbe work.
School directors and patrons should
note whether their teachers are in
attendance; those who did not attend
Saturday should make it their business
to attend the meeting at Brookvllle
Saturday the 24tb, beginning at 9.30 a.
m. and lasting all day.
GROWTH OF BEE KEEPING.
(Continued from First Page)
bees as unchecked smallpox has,oa the
human race. .
"There are about23,000 beekeepers In
this state, and it Is safe to say that not
more than one-tenth of this number
know the disease when they see it, and
know the proper methods of preventing
its spread. When a mau's colonies oi
bees have been attacked by foul brood,
be thinks that it 1b juBt "bad luck."
His bees die off, be doesn't know why,
and he attributes it all to chance.
"The only way to get rid of tbe dis
ease is to destroy the infected combs
and move the bees to a new colony. By
so doing no new bees are bred for five
or six days, and by that time the
infection has been worked off by the
adult bees.
"Tbe foul brood, of which there are'
two kinds, American and European,
has been known in this country for
about forty years. All of it originally
came from Europe, for bees are not
native of this continent. It has only
been recently, however, that tbe rav
ages of the disease have been noticed.
Formerly a man kept his own bees and
used the honey himself. Since the ex
panding of tbe industry, with tbe in
terchange of honey, and the shipping
of colonies and queen rearing for the
market, the disease has gained a great
foot hold." .

BUNCH OF VERY LARGE' ONES
Saturday J. Walter Moore, of tbe
Glendale district, brought to The
Star offloo three fine peaches,
the largest of which measured 8
inches. The fruit wrs soft and finely
flavored and Mr. Moore states that the
three samples submitted did not differ
materially from 100 bushels more
which he gathered in his peach
orchard this year. Which goes to
show that Jefferson oounty farming and
fruit growing is a profitable profession
for toe man who knows his 'business
ana attends to it.
An egg that measured 0i inches
around one way and 8i around the oval
circumference, was the production of a
had belonging to Mrs. Joseph Shaffer
one day last week. It was about twice
the size of the average egg.
A Last week we mentioned an eight
inch peaoh grown by Charles Berkhouse
Friday John H. Deemer, who lives on a
farm south of Reynoldsville, brought to
the office a fine specimen of a
peach which measured nine inches
in circumference. . It was grown on
his farm under ordinary conditions
and serves to strengthen previous state
ments to the effect that with a little
more attention Jefferson county could
be raaae one of the greatest fruit
growing sections in Pennsylvania.
