Beemasters as we'll as public authorities appre

Beemasters as well as public authorities appre- ciated my efforts in advancing the cause.
 The original certificates in writing executed by several public authorities of Prussia which certify to the truth of the above statements of facts have been presented for inspection to the patent office and the Smithsonian Institution at Washington.
 In 1853 immigrated to Texas with view to make move towards the founding of unions or oeemasters to advance and improve the cul- tlvatlon of bees and to introduce new and ap- proved methods. But not having the necessary means failed in my endeavors and living on place where food for bees is very scarce and sca'ty, dd not even succeed in raising an ex- tehs've stock of bees myself and had to see them s.a!Ve. e. In good localities one can, according to Dz'erzon's plan, multiply to any extent and reap rcher harvest than can be obtained by almost any other branch of industry.
 II one begin with 20-3O beehves, and mul- tply from 3-4 times year an increase of aoout loOO hives may be brought up after the lapse of year. One is then limited by nothing ont the work of clearing and refining honey and wax. have models of presses in my possession that greatly facilitate and expedite this process. An extensive stock would justify the Introduction or wax bleaching, as the difference of price be- tween b!eached and unbleached wax is very considerable. He who engages extensively in pee raising will do we'll to do away with the Strip plan and introduce the separate honey room that facilitates the work of gathering honey, saves the lives of the old bees. of the eggs and young brood and secures much clearer. purer money. He who wishes to observe the admira- Die economy ot the bees and study it closely VIII do well to procure bee hive of the afore- sad construction and fix it in one of the win dows of his room. The balmy perfumes of the 'resh honey penetrate and fill the whole room. ne door of the entry on the room side may be made of glass. Glass bee houses would do bet Ter here than Tn Europe, where they are expos. ed to more cold and humidity. The establish ment of paper to advocate this branch Of rural occupation Is a desideratum in the United o'ates The American farmers should not Sul1er themselves to be eycelled bv the Euro pean oeemaSters who are mostly poor hnt never thelrsS support several bee papers Most will inglY won'd offer my services as editor or cor respondent
 The west enemy of the hee is worm. hatch ed out ot the egg of the honey or bee moth at the bottom ot the bee house. If it gets into the wax structure 1t proves fatal to the bees.
