• Some years ago I was called away
from home from the latter part of
September until January 1. Before
lea ng I made sure that every colony
of bees was iu good shape with an
abundance of winter stores, and "I felt
hey would pass the winter with-
ocutiltitelocsos.mfortable in the assurance
that t
When I returned I went into the bee
•
yard and, placing my hand under the
bottom board of a hire, was alarmed
th 240 that it ',yes very light; in fact,
almost as light as an empty hive. An
answering buzz from the bees assured
, me that the colony, or part of it, was
, alive, Although there was snow en
the ground, f enrefully opened the
hive and found a large ,ellony irceeent
with only about two pounds of honey
in the combs. -
I Trying One after nether of the
1 hives, the same condition was fond
I to prevail throughout the entire apiaey
of fifty colonies.
Dere was a desperate situation that
demanded ilrastic treetment, even in
midwinter; hut it was the e/e'eetion to
the general rule. Something had to
I' e done to avoid.. disaster, so weitine
three or teem days uttil a fairly warm
day arrived, I gave to earh 'o!on
some huge bells of candy, made 1:7:
mixing pulverized suger with suffice -
ant extracted honey to form a stiff
dongh. Enough was Made tO give to
each coloiresahouli fifteen pounds.
This candy was pieced directly on
the tops- of the frames of the brood
chamber, end an' extra empty hive
body placed on top of the brood body.
Burlap was laid over the mule., it thick
layer of planer shavings was pincer]
on top og the burlap, and the entire
hive was wrapped with waterproof
paper, leaving only the entrance open.
As an experiment I made some hard
candy by boiling gionulated sugar
with extracted honey, and gave a large
cake of this to each of three colernes.
In the spring I found that practically
every colony that harbeen given the
eoft candy came through the winter en
fine shape, but the oncs that had been
given the hard candy perished. The
hard cattily waseuntouched because the
bees did not have aeceas to water with
which to • moisten it.
The cause or:the shortage of stores
was that from -the last of September
to early frost there was a complete
drying up of nectav in the fall blos-
soms, and as the weather was -unusual-
ly mild the bees had consumed the
stoves they already possessed.
Simple Manua- ITS Testing Steele.
It is a simple meter to test seeds
before sowing. Take it piece of white
flannel, put it in a •saucer with Water
sufficient to saturate it and keep it so.
Count the seeds that are placed on the
flannel and make a record of the
number. Cover with paper or another
saucer turned over it. Blotting paper
may be used in place of flannel. Keep
the saucer in a warm plaee. The per-
centage of growth can be 'calculated
by counting bow many eeeds in the
