BUSY BEES FINISH
1924 HONEY CROP

Wisconsin's busy bees are buying
around their hives these DAYS put
ting the finishing touches to the 1924
honey crop.
"This state has the natural flowers
for the bees" says H. F. Wilson,
beekeeping specialist at the Wiscon-
sin College of Agriculture. "Chicf
among these are the clovers, white
and alsike varieties. Then there are
other scattering sources, such as the
basswoods and saspberries.
Noted honey producers credit the
white alsike clovers with being two
of the worlds principal honey plants.
The presence of these plants in so
many sections of the state helps the
beekeepers to produce 100000
pounds of the silver and golden de-
licacy every year. In terms of money
this crop means 100000 when sold
to consumers.
There are no special beekeeping
areas in Wisconsin, according to the
bee specialist. Bees are being kept
by $4,000 beekeepers and farmers in
all sections of the state except the
light sandy soil sections where the
clovers do not thrive. Individual
Badger beekeepers keep from one
hive to as many as 600 hives.
