native, says the Scientific American.
The honey is produced by stingiess
bee, called the "moka." of which there
are two species. The larger of these
builds only in the ground and in vers'
hard soil. The hive is found at the
bottom of a shaft having the diameter
of lead pencil, and from two to five
feet deep. The honey is not stored in
the comb, but in wax bags each
about as large as a good sized thlnl-
BILE; these are cemented together witt
wax forming cluster about the size
of an orange. A hive may contain
from a few spoonfuls to two gallons
of honey. - -.
