Mr.. and Mrs. Harry Wood of Ar
thyde, were in town Monday doing
some shopping and to dispose of some
of their delicious honey produced on
their own farm. Bee culture is a
very fascinating study. The bees are
organized and have a queen bee, the
workers and drones. The queen bee
is larger and lays from one to two
thousand eggs a Gay. She lives longer
than the others of her hive, her life
span being about three to five years.
The workers gather the honey, bee
glue and pollen. They make the comb,
feed the young and clean the hives.
They are constantly renewed from
eggs from the queen bee. The drones
are the male bees and are destroyed
by workers after the honey season.
Bee culture is becoming more popular
as it requires less work than some
of the other forms of activity.
