Value of Bees on Farms.
To give an idea of the value of bees
in agriculture, it is stated by a Ger-
man writer that an ordinary colony
during Summer containS an average
of 20,000 foragers. Of these 80 fly
from the hive to the pasturage every
minute; therefore, taking the working
hours as from 7 o'clock in the morn-
ing to 5 in the afternoon, 48,000 flights
would be made. During each fli:iht
every bee visits at least 50 blossoms.
This amounts in round numbers to 2,-
000,060 for the hive in one day. It
is reckoned that there are on an aver-
age 100 fine days when bees are able
to fly, consequently 200,000,000 Wes_
sorns may be fertilized by the bees of
one colony. When only one-tenth of
these blossoms are properle- fertilized
by bees, it leaves the enormous man-
ber of 20,000,000 fertilizations to each

profits. They shourd then be broken
up and cultivated for other crop.s.
Deep ploughing is not necessary nor
need the furrows be set up with n
narrow plough. Rapid work at this
time of year is essential. A. two -fur-
row plough, with three horses, will
t turn over a large piece of land in a
day. At the close of each day the
area ploughed that day should be
rolled. This breaks the lumps, presses
down the furrows, re-establishes con-
nection between the surface soil and
the subsoil, bringing up the moisture
from the latter to aid in rotting the
After rolling, diseing and harrowing
should not be delayed. With such
cultivation one retains a surface
mulch, opens, aerates and fines the
soil and destroys many bad types of
noxious weeds and with the co-opera-
tion of the summer sun this work is
most effective. With the present
scarcity of labor, this is the cheapest
and most practicable method of weed
destruction and soil preparation for
grain or even for hoed crops.
After the sod is decayed, a rigid ne
spring -tooth cultivator with wide
points should be kept going at inter-
vals until autumn. Then the land
should be thoroughly ploughed, as
deep as the humus or plant food in the
soil will allow. On the Dominion
Illustration Stations, some results have
been obtained in„comparing the sum-
mer cultivation of sod land with fall
