Don't kill the humble bees. A
writer in the Scientific American says
his :--lIoney bees cannot extract the
loney from red clover. Their pTobOs
lis is to short. consequently they ,
lever disturb it. 1t is the white Glow

he humble beef two years we would
,e without clover, one of the best iei- ,
ilizers known to agriculture. Few
,umble bees live over the winter, and
heir number is not sufficient to fertll- J
20 the first growth of clover, as not
more than per cent. of the first crop
las seed; but by the time the second
