Bee Management-MIIIers, &c,

FRIEND BATRHAM:-It is four or FIVE years
since bees first arrested my attention; since
then, have endeavored TO find remedy for
the moth; believing that the worm constituted
the greatest impediment &c the raising OF bees,
hut am now satisfied that il offers but little, il
any, opposition 10 the successful raising OF bees.
Keep one Queen bee in the hive and there is
no doubt they will prosper.
In tie fal of l847, one Of my hives showed
signs Of decay-every movement indicated the
presence of worms. They continued in this
languishing condition ill the spring following,
when il became evident that they we're entirely
swamped with worms. concluded TO drive
the bees into a small box that had some empty
comb in it. left by bees the fall before. After
some difficulty ! succeeded, and on examining
the old hive found it full Of comb, bee bread
honey, and worms-preIty thoroughly mixed.
The whole blame Of course was laid on the
worms. The bees, however, worked in their
little box very moderately, as il hope was q
long way below par. Their number seemed
TO diminish regularly, no. more than two quarts
when put into the box, was soon reduced TO one
half that quantity; still they had made some
honey.
While looking on the turdy movements o
the bees in this little box, il occurred 10 me tha
they might need queeni picked up an extra
ono about the mouth OF another hive and pu
il in with these disconsoale bees, and in very
short time tho aspect Of The hive was complete
ly changed.
Their comb had become we'll supplied with
worms--they commenced Immediately to Gu
down all the comb that had any worms in it
and the infected comb with the worms was soor
expelled. Hope seemed 10 revive, the pros
poets to brighten, and an industrious colony was
she result Young bees soon appeared and the
worms disturbed Them no more.
1t is likely that old hives, often standing ma,
ny years without any change oI comb, los,
their vigor, owing to the fact ihNt the cells arr
not adapted to the raising Of good bees.
One thingis certain. il bees from any cause
should lose their queen, and no, have iht
means in their power of raising another, III,
miller and the worms soon take possessio
believe no hive is destroyed by worms Will,
an efficient queen remains in il.

They have now on hand about one thousand

cordingly reduced Upwards of fifty thousand
dollars Of our stock has been recently purchased,
the greater portion OF which are foreign goods re-

the known pressure in the money market, were
sold at immense sacrifices at public sales, at u rate
varying from twenty five to ffIy per cent less
than similar goods bought at the frs! of the sea-
son, We are therefore confident that our prices
Tor the time above mentioned will be found to be
even lower than any Easlern wholesale rates.

tablishment, whether they purchase or not and
test the truth OF the above assuring them that
