SWARM CONTROL BIG FACTOR
swarmlng Is Not Desired by Beekeep-
er Who Is Keeping Bees for
Production of Honey

Swarm control is an important fac
tor in Bookkeeping, asserts DR.. J. Fl.
Merrill, assistant professor of ento-
mology in the Kansas State Agricul-
tural college.
1.-THE standard of successful bee
keeping was formerly set by the num-
Der of swarms that issued during the
year." said Doctor Merrill. "Now,
however, 1t Is known that one colony
will produce more honey than will a
colony which by swarmlng has been
separated into two, or possibly more.
Thus, while swarming may be the
natural way for increasing the num-
ber of bees, 1t Is not desired by the
beekeeper who Is keeping bees to pro-
duce honey.
1.-THE exact cause for swarmlng is
not known, although there are several
conditions which are known to stimu.
late It, If these conditions are rene
died, Il large proportion of swarmlng
will be controlled"

ting Is Important.

Corn is recognized as the best crop
for silage but for conditions where
kafir corn or sorghum Is better suit
ed these crops can be used with good
results. In quality of silage, kafir,
followed by sorghum, ranks next to
corn, according to G. II. Eckles of the
University of Missouri college of ag.
rlculture. The yield Of silage by these
crops Is usually equal to, or greater
than, that from corn. The stage OF
cutting sorghum and kaflr for sllagt
is Of special Importance In making
good silage. These crops should bt
practically mature, that is the seet
should be hard. If they are cut tot
early the silage is quite sour. If tn,
crops should get frosted before the.
are cut they should be cut at one,
and put into the silo. If they becom
too dry before cutting sufficient wa
ter must be added so that the silag
packs well.

ERADICATE ALL LATE WEEDS
Few cockleburrs or Other Noxlous
Plants Left at Last viii Cause
Trouble Next Year.

Weeds that are left In the corn are
the ones that do the damage. A few
cockleburrs or other weeds left at the
last will grow up and, by going to seed,
scatter over the whole field. This will
make matters next year Just as bad
as before. Every effort to get out the
late weeds from the corn ought to be
made, even If 1t is necessary to use the
hoe on the worst spots in the field.
