How to Hunt Wild Bees.

Choose a warm, clear day in the fall,
when the bees do not find and an abun-
dance Of honey To gather from natural
sources. The necessary articles whlch
we want TO take with us are honcycomb
and Goals of fire. Take four or fvc
pounds of liquid honey; If it has been
gathered the present season so much the
better. Select three or four pieces OF
bright. new comb and az much old comb,
which should contain some bee-bread.
Take an old tin pail that will hold five or
six quarts, fill it a quarter full Of ashes,
nut in some good, hardwood coale oil
fire. and cover them up with more ashes.
Get board an inch thick and eighteen
or twenty inches square. Bore an inch
hole in its centre and insert therein "A
niece of hard wood two inches in diam
eter and three or four feet i'm length.
This is our bee stand. Now we are ready
for action Go at least mile from where
tame bees are kept, and as near the To-
cality as convenient where the wild bees
are supposed TO be. Set up your bee
stand. The lower end Of the standard
should be sharp, that ii may readily en-
ter the ground Lay a piece OF the
empty comb on the stand and fill it with
the liauid honey. Unless the honey be
quite thin iteshould be diluted with
water. Now uncover your Goals OF fire
and drop pieces of your old comb on
them. ffthe comb be moist and scent.
ed with few drops of anise, ii viii be
more sure TO attract bees to the place
AS soon as the bees find the honey they
win fill themselves with 1t and fly in di
rect line for home. As soon as the bees
are at work in large numbers, follow uI
the line bus If unsuccessful in finding
