SUGAR FOR BEES
REMISSION OF DUTY WANTED [from our own correspondent] HAMILTON", Tuesday A report was received from the central executive by tho South Auckland branch of tho National Beekeepers' Association to-day, stating that there was a prospect of sugar required for feeding bees being admitted into the country free of duty. It was pointed out that in England a similar problem had been solved by the addition to tho sugar of a substance to render it unfit for human consumption, bub not harmful to the bees, thus overcoming the objection of the Government to making a remission of duty owing to the possibility of abuse of tho system.
