He has been swatted, swore at, smoked out, and slandered. Most of the time by people who haven't taken the time to sit down and consider the great con- tribution made to humanity by the small bee and his millions of cousins. Admittedly, it's rather uncomfort- able to find that you have disturbed the privacy of a swarm of bees, for they are not the type of insect to take such disturbances sitting down. They are the originators of the mass attack technique, and there is little defense against their buzzing attack. But, if you leave the bees alone, they will leave you alone and they will do you a good deed in return, In this age of modern inventions we have come to depend more and more upon the ma- chine, and less and less upon nature and her hired hands. The bee, for some years now, has been shunned, but in the past couple of seasons, farmers and townsfolk alike have sud- denly wakened up to the fact that here is a friend, not an enemy. Farmers are turning to the little bee for assistance in renewing the rapidly dwindling clover crops. They are finding that only bees can carry on the work of pollination. Even science cannot do this tiqiish job. So, many farmers are installing hives of bees in their clover fields and 'apple orchards so that these little in- sects may do their work more easily. And it is paying off to the tune of many thousands of dollars worth of farm produce. True, the bees are also being hindered in their work by science's latest invention, chemical I weed and insect control, but even so, they are doing a job. Some farmers are finding that it pays to forego the spraying and keep the bees. The honey crop is picking up at the same time. After several bad years the bees are back in there this year with a bumper crop and their owners are smiling again. There is no sub- stitute for honey and even the great scientists in their million-dollar lab- oratories will admit this. What child doesn't like bread and honey? Who doesn't like hot, buttered biscuits with honey? How abbut pancakes with hbriey? During the war when sugar was rationed, many people substituted honey for that hard-to-get commodity and many still stay with it. Athletes prefer honey for strength and stamina. Mixed with a little lemon juice or vinegar, it makes a fine cough syrup for bronchitis. People who have need for quick energy food know that it is second to none. Yes, bees can be bothersome, if they choose to build their hive in the attic or around the kitchen window. They can cause a little trouble if they have a hive in the clover field or a hollow, tree, But, they more than repay you for that trouble with a crop of tasty, energy giving food. There has been a good crop of honey this year. Make sure that you get your share.
