Production (Experimental Farms News) Among the factors -beyond control of the beekeeper are abundant nectar plants and suitable weather condi- tions. The most important factor for which„ the beekeeper is responsible is the production of strong colonies of bees in time to gather the honey harvest, says C. A. Jamieson, Bee Di- vision, Central Experimental Farm, Ottawa, Increase in unit production' niav be secured by adopting the following general plan. All colonies covering four frames or less should be united to' those of medium strength in the spring. The queens removed from the weals colonies may be placed in mass for einergency use later on. In regions where the main honey flow conies late and extends into Aug- ust, as in the Prairie Provinces, strong colonies may be equally divided and a young laying queen introduced to the the queenless half during May early June. Tit Eastern Canada and British Col- umbia where the flow commences ear- ly, a two -queen system` of nmanage- mettt may ,be adopted on all strong ;olonies during the first weelo in May or at least four to five weeks before the main flow. Detailed infor- mation on two -queen system may .ba obtained by writing to the Bee Divi- sion, C.E.F. Ottawa. Experimental results have indicat- ed an iriciease'in unit return when these methods are •used. The extra cost of the young laying queen is inose than offset by the additional honey gathered. The extra gaeens should be ordered now to avoid pos- sible delay in delivery. See that all colonies have ample brood rearing space, at least two full depth hives, anti ample goon ler the ripening and storage of honey. These measures should 'provide populous col- onies, thereby increasing colony pro- duction.
