QUEEN BEES.
Wonderful Provision of Nature h,
Which They Are Made.

\ marvellous phase of bee life is the
power Which they possess to raise
queens. OF mother bees, from eggs or
very Young brood that would i'll the
ordinary course produce workers.
which are neUters, or undeveloped fe-
males.
If by any chance a queen is killed or
lost the whole colony would perish
were it not for this wonderful pro
vision of nature. Much perturbed at
first at their loss. the bees after some
hours settle down and deliberately
build pear shaped structure known
as queen cell. This is much larger
than an ordinary cell, rough. irregu-
lar and strong.
In this the selected eggs. or larvae.
are lavishly supplied With "royal jel-
w." which is highly stimulative and
in which the baby queen literally floats
durin'y her period of growth. The re
suit is that certain organs and ova-
ries which remain dormant in a work
CT bee are perfected. and the new
queen hatches out in about fifteen
days, or six days sooner than the
workers. ] Iondon Answers.
