Hest Time 20 Move Bees.

Tho best time to move bees Is In the
early winter before the weather has
been cold enough to make the combs
brittle, so that they will break In han
ding. or in a warm day aear the spring
before the bees begin to fly out. Thus
II follows that one who buys bees
should have those times to move them.
II they are moved In the summer, the
combs are liable to melt down, and II
IN the honey season unless taken sew
