| Beekeeper offers lessons on his hobby |
|
CAMPTON HILLS (AP)—For a mere hobbyist, Bob Sobel sure can tell you a lot of fascinating facts about beekeeping. Like, did you know the scent of bananas puts honeybees in a foul mood because it signals danger? Or that bees are friendliest when it’s sunny and warm? “Bees have personalities, too,” says Sobel, a nature-lover who started beekeeping in his spare time about five years ago, “just like us.” This fall, community groups and individuals can observe Sobel in action — and learn the art of beekeeping themselves — through a new educational program sponsored by Campton Township. Sobel, 61, has agreed to share his knowledge of beekeeping as ...

| Sanganois repairs on the way |
|
For a change, even those who don’t draw a duck blind at Sanganois Fish and Wildlife Area today have cause to celebrate. The state is finally going to fix Barkhausen Levee. After six years of enduring a levee breach that superintendent Doug Jallas said “ripped the site in half,” the Department of Natural Resources has finalized a repair plan for Sanganois — a popular waterfowl area located between Beardstown and Bath on the east side of the Illinois River. Laverdiere Construction Inc. of Macomb should be on the job this week to start plugging the 300-foot hole in Barkhausen Levee. The breach has been a constant headache for Sanganois and for nearby private landowner...
