bees. Should the queen, the other hand found
a colony of her own she must go through much of
the same hard experiences already described for the
first spring queen her mother.
Among the ants just described, the large and
powerful queen is equal to the occasion. But among
many other ants this effort is all too great for the
one mother; and in such the queen has devel-
oped most remarkable habit by means of which the
labors are in large measure thrust upon another
already established colony. This is the reason for
the slave colonies among ants which present per-
haps the strangest incident in ant life.

these are shown at o..
Having located desirable spot for her nest,
the queen excavates a hollow, in which she
