Honey Harvest and Apiary Leader Hansen in Lewiston
Lewiston's api artist A Hansen entertains friends at his east end home to extract honey from his 40 strong colonies in the valley. Despite a poor season from cold weather delaying blossoms, each hive yields 75 to 100 pounds for market as bee culture grows in the Lewiston valley with more fruit bloom and clover. Hansen operates apiaries in Palouse country and with family has large bee interests in California, with 15 years in the business and plans to exhibit colonies at the interstate fair.

A ferry on the Snake River broke from its cable Saturday afternoon after three young boys left in charge failed to keep the head upstream. The craft drifted to a bridge, struck a pier, and overturned. The boys swam ashore about forty yards away in a remarkable escape. The boat remained caught in the Clearwater river eddy.
