Honey COnsumers

~
Almost any warm afternoon one may
see lidmerous large tblaek .hees buzzinef
about the hives with q noise equal to
more than twice their humble of work.
ers These are the drones who toll not.
and are useful only to fertilize the
queen. As this is necessary but once
in her lifetime, it lis evident that by
far the. greater part Of q drone's life is
spent in useless consumption of stores.
Nor is this all; as soon as honey be-
comes scarce in the field the attention
of many of the workers is taken up.
with destroying these idlers, and the.
working force depleted to that extent.
1t is no uncommon thing to see two or
more workers hauling out a .drone,
and either executing him or driving
him into exile. si.s,.st s I,3S t25.s
II is important to save the bees as
much work as possible, and thus econo-
mize their time. That is just what
drone traps are for, and the one here
illustrated is regarded almost univer-
sally as the drone trap for all apiaries.
A close examination Of the cut will ex-.
plain the method of its use, I think,
appearing as the--trap does to the OBJ
server, when in place across the hive
entrance. The back is open sufficient
~ to admit the bees readily, but the,

ALLEY TRAP.

freely, but not the larger drones. The
latter, trying to escape to the outer air,
crawl about in search of an exit, and
finally find it through the apex of the.
wire cone shown in the center of the
trap. The latest patterns contain
three cones.) This leads them into an
upper chamber or apartment entirely
inclosed with perforated strips, and
from which there is no exit for them.
except through the, one byswhich they
entered. a route they are very seldom
able to retrace. In this way in the
course Of one or two warm afternoons
about all the drones in the hive may
be captured and destroyed at leisure.
Or, il one does not care to kill them,
an opening from the end of this cham
Der to the outer air, closed by d sliding
tin, may be left open and the drones
allowed to pass out this way. As they
cannot return by this route, they are
effectually debarred from reentering
the hive, If this method is adopted,
however, care should be taken that
they do not simply go into another
hive. If they are killed while Gagged
see that no workers are with them.
So much for this ''alley trap" as tits
called, as q drone excluder. AS a
queen catcher it Is also valuable. The
queen is also larger than the workers,
hence unable to pass through the per-
forated zinc. To prevent the issuing
and departure of swarm during the
absence of the apiarist, place the trap
before the entrance as for drones, taxi
ing care to see that the entrance at the
end is closed. ia swarm attempts to
issue the queen will either be forced
back into the hive or caught in the
drone chamber, and held till the re-
turn or convenience Of the apiarist. OF
course the swarm is not likely to go
without her.
Formerly it was considered sufficient
to catch her, and prevent the departure
OF q swarm to parts unknown. Now
new feature is being successfully intro
duceda self-hiver. The top of the
trap is perforated or removed for this,
and box made with the ends fitting
tightly over the ends of the trap, the
back consisting of the front of the

all forming second chamber above
the trap; bee-tight, but With open top;
which should be exactly on level with
the top Of the hive. On top Of this.
place the hive into which you wish to
introduce the new swarm. The large,
chamber of the self-hiver then will.
open at the top, directly into the empty
hive, and the swarm following their
queen up through the trap, will pres
emily find themselves in their new hive.
By. placing trap across the entrance
to this to retain the queen, one can be
sure the swarm will stay here, and at
the same time allow the workers free
passage out of and into their new home.
BY this method one may leave the
apiary to look after itself for the day,
without fear of losing swarm OF bees,
and find them on his return at night
already hived and settled in their new
quarters. American Gardening.
