IOWA LAND BOOM CONCLUSIONS

The office OF Farm Management at
Washington, D. c. in cooperation with
the Iowa State College, made a study
of the land boom in Iowa during 1919.
The investigation covered 1414 sales
made between January l and Septem-
Der Is, 1919. In addition to this,
data on farm incomes on 400 selected
farms and other supplementary mater
ial were used in arriving at the con-
illusions. The following interesting
facts have been picked out from the
report.
The land boom in Iowa was a part
of the general increase throughout
the United States during the past
year amounting to q per cent.
The increase was more extreme In
Iowa than elsewhere. 1t averaged
$63 per acre, or 80 per cent from
March, 1919, to March 1920.

every indication would go to show that
there is no world surplus of wheat

the farmers organizations will place

BETTER BEES VS. MORE HONEY.
Better bees are as important to the
bee-keeper as better stock is to the
stockman But, whereas, the marked
improvement of herd may require
several years, few months are suf-
ficient for changing an apiary Of the
poorest scrub bees into an apiary OF
the best bees. This is possible be-
cuase the life of the honey bee is
short. The queen is the mother of
an entire colony, SO by replacing her
with queen of better stock, we may
have workers OF the new stock emery
ing in less than a months time and
if the re-queening is done in the spring
or summer, the last of the old stock
will have disappeared within few
weeks.
"One extra strong colony will store
more surplus than the combined out
put of several colonies Of medium
strength, and more than almost any
number of weak ones. Weak colonies
cannot be counted upon for the pro-
duction of surplus. Maximum crops
of honey can be secured only when all
colonies attain the greatest possible
strength and by the beginning of the
honey flow. Other things being equal
the strength of the colony depends
upon the prolificacy of the queen.
"Take the first step in improvement
now. Queens connot always be Sc
cured on short notice. Prepare now
to replace all poor stock. Oreder
from more than one source and you
will stand better chance of getting
some of the best.
When re-queening is done regularly
most Of the young bees are put in dur
Ing August. There are two reasons
for this. One is that the queens may
be reared more easily at this time
than in the spring and consequently
cost less. The second reason is that
a young queen that begins to lay dur
ing the month of August will produce
more bees for winter cluster than one
reared earlier in the season. AS
young bees are essential for winter
ing, which in turn makes for strong
colony and bumper crop the follow
summer is good practice if your col
ony is already strong; but if you have
low yielding colonies, cross bees or
undesirable stock, do not
endure them another season.
One of the most practical bee keep
ers that ever lived one said, Upon no
other one thing does the honey part OF
the apiary depend so much as it does
upon the queen. ,"
