The most highly developed, the
most intelligent among all in
sects, is the bee. And as you may
know from personal experience he
is the most persistent.
ePrhaps you've been chased by
a bee after you annoyed it. And
if so, you remember that the bee
never gave up. the chase until he
got" you and left his stinger
somewhere on your face. If you
succeeded in getting under cover,
it is probable that somewhere
near your house the bee kept
watch, waiting for you to come
out.
You have heard the expression
"bee line" and that just expresses
the way the bee flies, straight
ahead and to the point. Bees live
in all parts of the world, but they
are more plentiful in warm
climates, for they detest cold
weather. There are 5000 kinds of
bees.
The bee is really a marvel. A
community of $4,000 bees is quite
an ordinary affair. Sometimes
the bee census taker counts co.
900, but when they get beyond
that they begin to swarm and
found another colony. And among
all these thousands of busy hum
mers there is only one mother.
She is known as the queen. In a
colony of $4,000 there are about
1000 males, known as lazy good
They are called
+drones and all the rest are the
workers.
The queen is Interested in one
thing only, to increase the popu-
lation of the colony, and in warm
known to lay as many as 5000
eggs a day. Funny thing about
the drones is this; After the
swarming season is over the work.
ers pick out all the drones and
kill them. Why? Nobody knows,
unless it's because of a fear that
these noisy, lazy drones, who do
nothing toward collecting and
storing the winter food, will eat
too much during the dull season.
The queen is the best and most
careful of mothers. She lays her
eggs in the wax cells which the
workers have made and scrubbed
and cleaned. The queen Is the OBJ
ject of great attention on the part
of the workers, and large num-
Der keep at work supplying her
with honey and everything else
she needs. The queen first lays
The Tacoma times. [volume] (Tacoma, Wash.) 1903-1949, 1910-12-05

the workers eggs, then those of
the drones, and finally in a spe-
cially prepared cell she lays a few
eggs from which the future queens
are Matched. AS soon as they are
old enough these new queens
swarm away with some of the
other bees workers and drones,
to form a new colony somewhere.
When the bee first crawls out of
the shell it is worm, coiled up
like a ring, and the workers feed
these babies until they are five
days old, when the spin a cocoon
around themselves. When the
bee finally breaks from it's silken
cell, the workers caress it and
feed it and the drones stand
around and look on. The cell is
then carefully cleaned by the busy
workers and prepared for the
honey. The bees not only make
the honey, but produce the wax
from which the combs are made.
Isn't it wonderful how patiently
and how accurately they build
these cells, first used as cradles
for their babies and afterwards
as storerooms for the honey?
The older bees feed on the nee
tar of the flowers and make what
is called bee bread, from the pol
len of flowers, for the baby bees.
The honey in the flowers is later
deposited in the comb, where by
and by Mr.. Farmer gets it and in
course of time 1t finds it's way to
your table, where you spread it
on your bread.
Industrious? The result of the
mbined labors of the workers
often produces a honey comb Ia
inches long by seven wide, con-
tanning 1000 cells, in "a hours.
You have seen electric fans,
haven't you? The bees don't need
them. In the summer time when
the hives contain a large popula-
ton and much fresh air is needed,
as many of the workers as are re-
quired for the purpose fan the air
with their wings at the mouth of
the hive. Il
