would be best tn feed all a little. He
prepared his bees for winter by puts
ting cotton, mote and seed on the top
Of the hive, which afforded them suffi :
cient ventilation, and absorbed all
dampness and prevented cold draft
through the upper part of The hive.
The above is but poor brief of the
talking on several other points pertain
ing TO bee culture, but found that he
had already taken up too much time
At the close of DIR. Boyd's remarks, Mr..
D+YId Staples made few remarks. He
differed with the Doctor about upward
ventilation, he did not want any in his
hives-thought paper the best abscr-
"ant to use. He extended his remarks
al some length on his system of Rarey
ing bees, as Rarey did animals. He in
troduced queens by shaking them from
the frames and subdueing them, until
they become perfectly quiet and peacea-
BILE He then dropped the queen among
Them and let them re >enter the hive to-
yethPr. Mr.. Staples said be had been
working for some days in sorghum, and
had noticed that his bees worked very
freely on the stumps of the cane. Inc
species of sorghum that he had cultlva-
ted was what was known as the red top
variety. In cooking the syrup the bees
rapidly took up any that was dropped
He had examined his hives and found
that they contained pure sorghum sy-
,up. He intendad trying an experiment
with half dozen hives by extracting
the honey and feeding them on sorghum
and thought it might be cheap winter
food. 1t had been tried North-knew
that It would not do there, but thought
It might do South. MIR. Staples con-
tinued bis remarks to some length on
feeding-as stimulant to bees he al
ways used sour syrup, as they would
not store it in their cells.
Mr.. J. j. Jones differed with Mr.. Sta
pies, and said his bees would not eat
sorghum. In reply to question as to
the best preventive OF ants it was de-
cided to I've diluted salt.
The subject selected for discussion at
the next meeting was" Feeding bees-its
mode, object and result" and also
queen rearing"
VIM. J. Andrews offered the fol-
lowing resolution which was unani
mously adopted.
ReS0tUed, That all the Bee keepers
of Maury county be invited to each
meeting of this society, but only those
to be entitled to a vote or
to participate in the business of the So
ciety.
W. J. Andrews stated to the So
ciety that Mr.. Horsly had informed him
that he would be glad to have any com
from any of the members
on the subject of bees, which would be
ola local nature.
1t was moved and adopted that Mr.
David Staples, be requested 20 deliver
a lecture at the next meeting, and in
the event of his being unable to be
present that S. D. Mclean should do so.
The Society then adjourned to meet
again the first Saturday in January, 1876.
