Spring is the most suitable time to be-
gin the business. The bees are then win
tered, and if tho ensuing summer is a
good honey season some surplus honey
and increase will be obtained. Let ev-
cry one who contemplates investing in
bees begin now to read up and get all
the information he can. The manage
ment Of bees is both science and on
art. The former can be learned from
books, but the latter must be learned
from the manipulation Of bees themselves
in the apiary. No one need despair of
success who has good degree of COM
mon sense. This is indispensable for ev-
cry pursuit, but especially for apicul-
ture, where emergencies will arise that
we must master by the exercise of our
own Judgment
ANY one of ordinary intelligence, by
close application to the study of some
standard author on agriculture, can mas
ter the general principles of the science
IN few weeks. He will not, of course,
in that time become an expert in the
thousand and one devices now lauded to
the skies, but he will have acquired the
fundamental principles on which the sci
ence is founded and on which success in
the art is based. These principles are
notnumerous and are easy of application
If properly understood, says The Farm
journal, which adds this advice:
Let no tyro in the bee business puzzle
his brain with such devices as nonswarm.
ers, automatic swarm catchers, self hiv-
ers, etc. 1t is constitutional for the bees
to swarm, and until their constitution is
changed, whenever conditions arise, suit
able for swarming, swarm they will. All
success in modern bee culture has been
attained by close adherence to what is
in the nature of the bee. The great sue
cess of the movable comb hiv invented
by the Rev. Mr.. Langstroth was owing
to the fact that it conformed to the so.
clal nature of the bee by furnishing a
large receptacle, like the gum log and
the square box, and at the same time al
lowing the combs to be fastened to
frames instead of to the walls of the
hive. The same may be affirmed of ev-
cry other device that has advanced api-
culture. They have all conformed to
the nature and instincts of the bee.
