DISEASED COLONIES

tBy WESLEY FOSTER, Colorado Ex-

Many beekeepers endeayor 70 carry
diseased colonies through the winter
because 1t is Sc much easier to treat
them in the spring than in the fall.
In a very large number of cases the
diseased colonies die during the win.
ter and the honey is robbed by other
colonies. thus spreading the disease
throughout quite an extended area.
The general idea Is that, inasmuch
as little breeding is done in the win
ter, there is small likelihood of the
disease spreading In the hive. This
is quite true. However, the following
factor is the most important one.
The diseased brood is so offensive in
odor that but a very small amount is
highly disagreeable to the bees. This
milita.es against the natural tendency
of the bees to cluster during severe
winter weather. A colony lacking
compact clustering during winter soon
succumbs. Very few colonies affect

ws-con.truesed Barn. Adapted to General Farm vss.

There should be developed q gen.
eral style Of architecture which could
in the main be adapted to the differ-
ept farm buildings. It should straight
forwardly meet the needs to be served
and should be dignified and pleasing
In form and line. The material to be
used will react upon the style in no
small degree, for it is evident that q
stone or concrete structure Is func-
tionally different from one built Of
wood.
With regard to the barn, the needs
are not fixed. but widely varying. In
certain forms of farming, It may exist
chiefly for storage. while in other
cases 1t may serve mainly for hous-
ing the animals. Whatever its needs,
1t should look the part of the barn,
and not that of a country school or
church. 1t should be proportioned
and fitted to meet the internal needs
FOR which it is built.
Since the barn and the house are
the nucleuses Of the farm group, ft is
well at this point to consider briefly
the arrangement Of farm buildings. Ger
tainly the part Of architecture is not
fulfilled when given building is de-
signed. Its relation to other buildings
both existing and future should bA
concern. Usually there is an absence
OF any logical relationship between
the different buildings Of the farm.
They have been dropped down here
and there. as II were. the house here,
the barn there. shop in one place
and shed In another Indeed OF all
this there should be a careful group
ing. There will be decided advantages
in convenience. in economy of con-
struction, and in protection. The
esthetic possibilities will be much
greater and from the very nature Of
things, the unattractive features will
protrude less prominently and will be
rluch easier of concealment.
