STRONG COLONIES.
without Them Bookkeeping Is Sure I,
BE Il Disappointment.

One of the difficult things for the
novice in beelieeping to learn is that
len strong colonies will store more
honey than twenty weak ones. There
is an anxiety for large numbers, and
each colony is counted one, no matter
how feeble it may be. So the mex
perienced is often delighted at get
ting two, three, or even four or five
swarms from single colony, notwith-
standing the fact that the last two
or three swarms contain only hand
full of bees. They make sure to die be-
fore the winter is over, and then he de-
cides that he doesn't care for such very
weak colonies, but still clings to the
thought that one strong enough to
live through it is all right.
Many times, however, it is true econ
omy to lessen the number, even with
the view of having the largest num-
Der possible in the succeeding fall.
Suppose, for instance, there are four
weak colonies in the spring, each one
having enough bees to fairly cover
