the number of farms reporting bees.
Since bee keeping is one of the i'm
portant and profitable minor
branches of agriculture, this decrease
among farmer bee keepers is unfor-
tunate. No returns are available for
bee keepers In towns and cities.
Bee keeping is fast becoming the
business of the specialist and the
number of men who devote their en-
tire attention to the business is rap
Idly increasing. However, there Is no
reason why the average farmer can
not keep a few colonies of bees to
supply honey for home consumption
with perhaps some surplus for sale
in good years.
