Hamp was satisfied that he had estab-
lished the line. By that time there was
q regular procession of bees coming and
going. Leaving the box where it was,
we struck out after Hamp. He was go,
ing for the tree where the bees were de-
posting that honey of his. Across the
clearing it was easy enough to trace the
busy workers, but when we got into the
woods it was different. and we would
have soon wandered from the trail, but
Hamp walked forward as steadily as if
there had been a guideboard on every
tree. More than half the time we could
not catch sight of bee, but it was only
after we had tramped for half an hour
that Hamp told us to watch the trees.
1t looked like searching in a haystack
for a needle, but finally Hamp held up
his hand and stopped. Hear thatp' he
said. We've struck it, l guess -
We did not hear thing but the
breeze singing in the tree tops, but
Hamp evidently did. for he soon point
ed out a big old maple with a buried
trunk. Half way up was knothole
about as big as an apple. Flying in and
out we could see the bees.
"Guess I'll just put my trademark
on this tree," said Hamp as he opened
his jackknife and proceeded to carve his
initials in the bark, land termorrer
We'll come back and see how she pans
out"
As we left the woods Hamp made a
mental map of the trees surroundings.
We were tired enough that night and
glad to hear that we were to ride part
Of the way next day. A very different
outfit Hamp carried on the morrow. He
had an ak, some sulphur and a couple
of big milk cans. We rode as near the
edge Of the woods as possible and then
carried our apparatus to the foot of the
bee tree. First Hamp chopped hole in
the foot Of the trunk and burned sui.
phur in the hollow. This killed the
bees, and after that it was an easy job,
comparatively, to chop the old maple
down, split it open and take out the
honey. There were about rs pounds Of
pure wild honey in the tree.
"Pooty fair, pooty fair" commented
Hsmp as he looked at the amber coloreC
mass of ambrosial sweetness. but I've
got as high as $50 pounds at one licl

twig, Hamp gently brushed Mr.. Bee
into his box and shut the glass cover.
Then he made his way to a stump, set
the box on it and carefully covered it
with his felt hat.
Then Hamp condescended to explain.
He told us that Mr.. Bee was a short
tempered customer, and that he resented
any interference with his work. Just at
that moment he was as mad as he could
possibly be. In fact, we could hear him
buzzing around at a great rate inside
the box trying to find a way out, and
doubtless saying all sorts of things that
strained his bee vocabulary to the ut.
most Hamp said that the bees anger
would cool quicker in the dark than in
the light. And it did cool in few
minutes, for soon Hamp, after carefully

wild honey! Why" said one Of his
neighbors, II believe Old Hamp can
smell it miles away, and what he don t
know about bees amt with KNOWN no.
how"
But Old Hamp was more modest. He
firmly denied that he could smell honey
at distance of more than a dozen feet,
and he said that he learned something
new about bees every time he went on a
hunt
His preparations seemed extremely
simple. First, he saw that good sub.
stantial lunch was put in a basket.
Then he ascertained that we had plenty
of tobacco both ''smokin an eatin, !"
also a good supply of matches. These
arrangements being made to his salts
faction, he took down his bee box. This
was a queer looking affair and looked
more like homemade kodak camera
than anything else. 1t was about six
inches deep, and perhaps ten inches
long. The top cover was of glass, ar
ranged so that it would slide. In the
bottom Of the box Hamp put good
sized piece of honey in the comb
We followed him out into the brac-
ing autumn morning. After a walk
of half an hour we turned from
the main highway into little used
thoroughfare. Then we crawled through
a pair of bars and struck straight across
pasture. This proved to be short cut
to a woods which led us to clearing
where the stumps were so thick that
travelling was difficult.
This is bout as likely place as l
knows on, !" remarked Hamp.
To my mind it was about as unlikely
place as he could have found, but l
did not say so. The clearing had evil
IDENTIFY been burned over the fall before,
and from the rich soil had sprung up a
wonderful growth of weeds There were
great billowy stretches of yellow golden
rod blazing in the forenoon sun with
oriental splendor; splotches of purple
where stood clumps of bull thistle in
defiant ranks; tangles Of wild asters,
milkweed, vervain and other Towering
growths that none but an expert bota-
mist could name.
Now fer the bees" said Hamp.
Sliding back the glass cover from his
bee box, he waded carefully among the
nodding blooms, bending a searching
| glance on each. To the great laundering
bumblebees he paid no attention. 1t
was honeybees he was after. Finally,
after few moments search, he found
one of the little black workers busily
exploring the concealed sweets of tassel
of goldenrod. Breaking off a little
