HANDLING COMB HONEY.
Apiarist Tells About
Method Practiced by Him with
Considerable Success.

All strong colonies, when run for
comb honey, will generally cast a
swarm. The parent colony should be
set aside and the swarm hived on the
old stand in order to catch all the field
bees, and will strengthen the swarm
considerably In four or five days
after the swarm has been hived, the
bees will have some comb built in the
brood nest and the queen will begin
laying in it. The super, which is now
probably partly filled with honey, can
be taken from the parent colony and put
on the swarm. and they will soon have
