HC Deb 30 May 1913 vol 53 c465
Major HOPE

I beg to present a Petition from the Midlothian County Council praying "That as the stock of bees in the county has been almost entirely depleted by disease, and as thereby agriculturists and fruit growers are injuriously affected, this House will pass into law the Bee Disease Bill now under consideration."

The Petition is signed by the chairman and the clerk of the Midlothian County Council.
