The successful manipulation OF
bees depends entirely on a knowledge
OF their habits. This Is not generally
recognized. and most OF the literature
on practical beekeeping consists OF
sets OF rules to guide manipulations.
While the method usually answers.
II Is nevertheless faulty. In that with
out knowledge OF fundamental prin-
ciples OF behavior. the bee keeper Is
unable to recognize the seemingly alb
normal phases OF activity. and does
not know what TO do under such
circumstances. Rules must. OF course.
be based on the usual behavior. BY
years OF association the bee keeper
almost unconsciously acquires a wide
knowledge OF bee behavior. and con.
seQuently is better able to solve the
problems which constantly arise
However, II would save an Infinite
number OF mistakes and would add
greatly to the interest OF the work
II more time were expended on n
study OF behavior; then the knowl.
edge gained could be applied to prac-
teal manipulation.
A colony OF bees consists normally
OF one queen bee. the mother OF the
colony, and thousands OF sexually un.
developed females called workers,
which normally lay no eggs. but build
the comb. gather the stores. keep the
hive clean. feed the young. and do
the other work OF the hive. During
part Of the year there are also pres
ent some hundreds OF males. or
drnnes. whose only service Is to mate
7ith young queens. These three
types are easily recognized. even by
a novice. In nature the colony lives
In a hollow tree or other cavity. but
under manipulation thrives in the arti
fetal hives provided The combs
which form their abode are composed
OF wax secreted by the workers. The
hexagonal cells OF the two vertical
layers constituting each comb have
interplaced ends on a common sep
tum. In the cells OF these combs
are reared the developing bees, and
honey and pollen for food are also
stored here.
The cells built naturally are not
all OF the same size. those used in
rearing worker bees being about one
fifth Of an inch across. and those used

honey, about one-fourth OF an inch
across. The upper cell in natural
combs are more irregular. and gen

The value of winter wheat to
the dry farmer has been demon
strated to g certainty in Idaho.
1t is superior to spring grown
grain of all kinds, since it fits in
to the farmers plan OF summer
culture, and it's period of growth
comes during those months when
rainfall is generally most likely
to occur.
Winter barley in Idaho, has
passed the experimental stage,
and has been so successfully
grown in so many localities in
southern Idaho above the ditch
this past season that there can
be little difficulty in getting seed
The writer finds that the price
for good winter barley runs from
20 to 30 cents per hundred above
wheat, and it will usually yield
more bushels per acre than
wheat
BY using good seed of a type
sought for mailing purposes,
seeded on well prepared sum-
mer titled seed-bed, DR.. Whitta-
ker Of Indian Valley, was able
this season to harvest 68H bu-
shells per acre, average, over a
field of 40 acres. He has Just
sold this crop for $1.4O per hun
dred on a market that is paying
but $1.05 per hundred for Turkey
Red wheat.
Good winter barley seeded on
a well prepared summer seed bed
will yield better returns than any
other grain crop and the writer
urges Idaho dry farmers to seed
more acres than ever this fall. 1t
is one of the best grains that can
be fed to hogs, is in larger guam
titles by the malster, and where
acclimated seed is used, is as a
drouth resistant as any grain
crop our farmers can grow.
Therefore, grow winter barley,
feed it to the hogs, driving them,
itstead of hauling the grain TO
market.
Your State Experiment Sta
tion has proven Idaho barley
produces cheaper and better pork
than is produced in the corn belt
with corn. Train loads of pork
ers from the eastern states cross
Idaho to supply Pacific states,
AS well as our own demands.
We can grow better pork than is
being shipped in. Shall we do
it? w. III. OLIN.

Thomas Bound Over

The examination of Frank
Thomas on a charge of robbing
G. f. Smith on the night of Octo-
Der II of a sum of money
amounting to between $50 and
$40 was held before Judge Bates
Friday. The defendant was
held to answer to the district
court, his bond being fixed at
$1,000, which he has been unable
to furnish and is now in the GUS
tody of the sheriff at Caldwell.
The prosecuting witness claims
that the money taken from him
consisted of six SO gold pieces
and some silver. Thomas left
town a day or SO after the occur
renee and was apprehended at
Caldwell and one $40 gold piece
and a quantity OF silver found
on his person. Before leaving
town be left three SO gold piec-
es with Jack Phelan TO keep for
him. One of these the prosecut-
ing witness identified as one of
the pieces he had lost. The day
before Smith lost his money
Thomas was known not to have
any money. and Smith slept with
Thomas on the night of the rob-
berry.
