BumbIebees and Glover

Some very important processes in
nature hang on very slight causes.
For instance, it has been proven that
red clover will seed but very little il
the blossom is not pollenized by bum
blebees. We can see by this how
very important is the bumblebee to
the interests of the farmer. One
ruling reason why the first crop Of
clover yields so little seed is because
of the light supply of bumblebees at
that time of year. Now this is not
the assumption of theory and guess,
work. 1t is founded on hard, practi,
cal facts, as the following from Prof.
Budd, of Iowa, win show:
