QUEEN BEE AND
HOW TO FIND HER
1t Is Her Sole Duty to Lay Eggs,
Her Nourishment Being Sup
piled by Workers.
Try +. C. HERMAN.)

In every colony Of bees, whether 1t
be located in skep, the hollow OF a
tree, or in a modern hive, there will be
found at some time Of the year three
kinds of bees-queen, drones and
workers. The queen is the most i'm
portant bee in the hive. She is the
egg-layer, and as such Is the mother
of the bees in the hive, whether they
are workers, drones or queens. Only
one queen is, under ordinary circum-
stances, found in hive, but occasion
ally two-mother and daughter-are
for time living together. The queens
sole duty being to lay eggs she has
no other cares to claim her attention,
in fact she does not even attend to
her own food supply. The nourish-
ment needed to keep up the extraor-
binary egg-laying power she posses
ses, is supplied by the worker-bees
which are for the first fortnight Of
their existence what may be termed
nurse-bees. If comb be taken out of
a movable hive quietly and without
disturbing the bees, the queen may
be seen surrounded by a cluster of
workers.
The queen is fair and stately bee,
differing from the workers both in
shape and color, she Is longer than
honey bee by one-third, and somewhat
longer than drone, but not quite so
big around. The queen is treated
with the greatest respect and affec'
ton by the bees. A circle of her off
spring often surround her, testifying
in various ways their dutiful regard.
offering her food from time to time,
and all politely backing out Of her
way, to give her clear path when
she moves over the combs. So strong
is the feeling of the worker for the
queen, that if for any reason she is
removed the whole colony is filled
with CONSERVATION and dismay. Her
death, when it is too late in the sea-
son to raise another queen, means the
firal extinction of the colony. A good
queen will sometimes lay from two to
three thousand eggs day, or nearly
the weight Of her own body and con-
tinue doing so for weeks in success

BORROWING 4 BOOK

But l have explained to you that

sion. Al the beginning or the season
the queen lays eggs in the workers
cells. She walks over the combs, puts
her head into each open cell as she
comes to it as though to discover
whether 1t Is occupied or Is in fit con-
dition to receive an egg. l have look
ed into an observatory hive for hours
and watched how faithfully she goes
about her work. The queen only
stings other queens, and seeks only
to kill her rivals. She may be hand
led to any extent without fear of be-
ing stung. She has also great tena-
city of life as well as longevity. She
will often continue alive in conditions
that have proved fatal to the workers
confined with her.
Well-bred queens are good for two
full years work, and the great ma
jority for the third year. A queen
hatch In the early part of the season,
SO that the year Of her Matching she
does much breeding, is aged and very
uncertain her third year. Matched in
mid or late summer she will complete
that year, all the next, and make
good colony for the next honey season
after that, when she ought to be SUI
perseded. Do not expect queen to
do more than two hard summers
service. Many will be good for long
er, but not enough to make it profit
able to risk keeping longer.
There are no sure rules for finding
a queen. 1t Is somewhat matter of
patience and practice. And yet atten-
ton to some things will help very
much. Go at it as quietly as possible,
using very little smoke, as smoke and
rough handling will alarm the bee-
and set them to running. and then you
might as we'll give up the job until
another time.
If the bees are Italians, queens can
usually be found at least On the third
or fourth frame taken out Of the hive.
A. practical beekeeper will first pull
out the center frame, and look for
freshly layed eggs. Failing to find
these he will take out another frame
from another portion of the brood
nest. If he finds the eggs, then he
has reasonable assurance that the
queen is somewhere in this part of
the hive. He looks the frames over
carefully, and, failing to find her, he
takes out the next one, each time fol-
lowing in the wake of the eggs. While
it no sure rule that the presence Of
freshly layed eggs in any portion OF
the brood-nest is evidence that the
queen is in that part of the hive, yet.
generally speaking, she will be found
near them.

(By NJ. NJ. EASTMAN.)

By NJ NJ EASTMAN)
When the harvest is completed, cul-
tivation of bush fruits should cease.
The sowing of some cover crop with
the last cultivation is a most excellent
practice.
Oats and peas, either separate or
in combination, answer this purpose
admiralty. The benefits derived from
a cover crop are manifold.
The greatest Of these benefits, per-
haps, comes in the protection afford
ed by the growth to the surface of the
ground.
1t is we'll known among those who
have made study of soil physics that
when left unprotected by growth of
some kind there is a loss both in
Of such soil.
Hence in so far as is practicable
the wise husbandman will keep his
land covered with growth of some
sort.
1t Is not practical to keep a cover
crop growing among small fruits
through spring and early summer, for
the best interests of such fruits re-
quires intensive cultivation through
this period Of their growth, but with
the fruiting season over such neces-
.sity ceases.
Unless drought conditions are I'M
usually severe there will be a suffi-
,cient amount Of moisture in the soil
of a bush fruit plantation that has re-
ceived intensive cultivation through
out the spring and summer to start a
vigorous growth Of oats or peas, and
under ordinary conditions of fall pre-
.cipitation such grains will attain con-
siderable growth.
The protection afforded by such a
growth prevents teaching of intrates,
that are continually being evolved
Through identification processes con-
.stantly in operation among soil
agencies.
Such growth also prevents washing
OF soil by fall, winter and early spring
