[QUOTE="NickWallingford, post: 7402, member: 44"] As to what is being done in this direction by the Home beekeepers, we do not know, but we cannot but endorse the policy that Mr Hopkins suggests, and that is simply to wage the battle against foulbrood with all the energy we can to make it, in fact, a fight to a finish. The cleaning up of foulbrood so far as New Zealand is concerned may be a very difficult matter; but we are persuaded that it can be done. Indeed, we are perfectly satisfied that our industry can never reach its proper dimensions until it is done. The discouragement consequent on the ravages of this disease will always thin down the ranks of the beekeepers, and if it is further going to hamper us in our export arrangements, it will, of course, be all the more necessary to fight it.
