Ant. Divided Into castes.

Ants OlNluNG lilAb SeAhNSes
 Every colony of ants Is divided Into sharply defDad castes. The largest, as a rule. are the workers. which are nearly the size of the queen ant. but which lack the wings. The largest ants commonly act as policemen or de. lenders of the colony. and In some species their Jaws are sufficiently pow prfuI to crush seeds and the hard purts of Insects. In some colonies where the workers are not needed or are found to be too expensive to rear and maintain on account of their size and appetites. they have been elim- hated, and the worker caste is repre- sented by the tInIest of the colony.
 The queen ant may live from l2 to r years. and may produce offspring up to the time of her death. Unlike the queen bee, she Is not hostile to her offspring, and In some species the queen daughters return to the ma ternal colony after their marriage flight and take an active part in ln- creasing It's population. When a col ony grows too large It may separate into several, the queens emlgratIng singly and taking with them small company of workers who form the nucleus of the new nest.
