A MODERN BEE TREE"

A Case of a Swarm of Bees Making
 Their Home in Wall of House.
 Honey bees often select strange places in which to begin housekeeping. A hollow tree is not necessary; an old fence post, shelving ledge, a rock pile, any place fairly well protected from sun and rain will do. Not unfre- quently they make home in the walls of frame houses, gaining entrance through a knothole or crack in the weather boarding. Sometimes bees in such cases become more or less nui- sance and one quite difficult to abate.
 The writer was recently called in to remove a swarm from the wall of a cottage at Pathfinder. This swarm had been in the walls for three years, and had finally become so strong as to be very annoying. In addition to oocca- sional stings which the younger mem bers of the family had suffered, no doubt justly deserved-bees rarely sting unless provoked-the swarm kept up a continual and exasperating hum.
