The finding Of honey among the Aztec ruins
establishes the fact beyond all question that
bees were known in Mexico long before the
days of Cortez, although scientists have at
tempted to disprove repeatedly the theory that
bees Of any species were native to America
This valuable article of commerce may be
described as the sweet strip or nectar derived
from the bees and other insects which gather
1t from trees, plants or flowers It is both
vegetable and animal in origin and contains
about 20 per cent. of water, Is per cent of re-
ducing sugars, such as dextrose and levulose,
twenty-five one-hundredths per cent. of ash,
and the balance Of other components. Honey
is variable in color and quality, the product of
one district excelling that Of another, and is
commercially classified as follows First,
combed. or that which is contained in the cells
OF comb; second, extracted, or that which has
been separated from the uncrushed comb by
centrifugal force or gravity; third, strained, or
that which has been removed from the crushed
comb by straining or other means. In color
the best grade runs from clear almost color
less to pale yellow and the flavor depends
upon the nature of the tree, plant or flower
from which it is gathered. With age, honey
turns considerably darker in color, but both
suffering decomposition.
The honey bee Is usually found in swarms
OF from 5000 to $4,000, and is divided into
three distinct classes: The queen, or female;
the drone, or male, and the worker, or neuter.
Each hive contains but one queen, which
propagates the species, frequently laying eggs
at the rate Of 1000 a day. Upon the death
Of the queen young neuter is selected from
the colony, its cell enlarged and the food
changed. The neuter then becomes queen
bee and is mated with the drones, who are
afterward destroyed by the workers.
Although the average life of the queen COW
ers period of three years of usefulness it is
considered advisable to annually restock each
colony with a new queen. The systematic
rearing of queen bees and the improvement of
the breed are considered the most important
branches Of agriculture. It Is also important
In breeding queens that the so-called "hybrids,"
or mismated queens should not be employed,
on account Of their inability to produce young
bees of desirable and consistent character
Selections have been made from the various
types of bees and an attempt made to combine
all the good qualities of each species, but as
yet it is quite impossible to find the bee that
is stngless and at the same time the largest
producer of honey and wax and the most pro-
life in breeding. 1t appears that each species
possesses certain distinctions of race and is
The Ely miner. [volume] (Ely, Minn.) 1895-1986, 1910-05-27

where it is elected into the comb. They also
construct the cells of the comb from a wax
secretion in the honey and feed all the other
bees The food of the young bees is called
beebread and consists of small pellets pre-
pared from the pollen of flowers. Honey is
fed to the adult drone bees.
1t is interesting to note that the amount of
honey involved in the secretion of pound of
wax is a much-debated question among stu
dents Of BEES the various estimates ranging
all the way from two to twenty pounds
1t is conservatively estimated that over 300,-
600 tons of honey are produced in the world
each year, Of which the American republics
yield about twothirds. This quantity, put up
in standard combs Of IA ounces each, would, If
the combs were placed side by side endwise
make line $4,000 miles long, or twice the cir
conference of the earth at the equator.
According to Latreille, the European species
of bees predominant in America; but it is evil
dent that the stingless variety Of bee is ma
tive Of South and Central America and Mexico,
where honey has been gathered by the natives
for many centuries, and that many of the other
varieties found were introduced from China,
Japan and Palestine as well as from European
countries.
When the pilgrims landed at Plymouth in
1920 honey was not to be found in that part
Of the country and bees were consequently i'm
ported from England in order to meet the re-
Quirements Of the time, but the first system
attic keeping Of bees in the United States was
probably established at Newbury Mass.
In a bulletin of the United States depart
ment Of agriculture it is stated that the i'm
portance Of the industry was Of municipal mo-
ment to the extent Of holding out to one John
Eales, who was then living in what is now
bingham, Mass. an inducement to come to
Newbury for the purpose 81 teaching the set
tiers how to make hives and to care for bees.
Since that time steady advances have been
made in the establishment Of systematic bee
culture in the United States. Bees have been
imported from all parts Of the world and the
industry has reached such an extent that the
annual average yield Of honey now amounts to
about $40, 000, 900 and beeswax about 100000
The United States imports annually about
100000 pounds Of honey and about 100000
pounds of beeswax, about IS per cent of which
comes from Cuba, Mexico, Haiti, Salvador, Do
minican Republic and Venezuela; and all Of
this regardless Of the fact that according to
the census about 100000 bee keepers. or one
in every 12O Of the entire population, are en-
gagged in the industry throughout the United
States.
The passage Of various pure-food laws and
the establishment of rigid inspection by
many of the importing countries have made
the marketing Of adulterated honey almost an
