Senators Lee, Democrat, OF
Oklahoma and O'Mahoney, Dem
ocrat, of wyoming contended on
the Senate floor today that Sen
ate amendments written into the
price-control bill at the behest
OF farm bloc members would help
rather than hinder the war ef-
fort If they became law.
The discussion was touched OH by
Senator Lee, who said newspaper
reports indicated that a joint House.
Senate committee. seeking q COM
promise version of the bill, had about
decided to abandon an amendment
by Senator OMahoney to permit
farm price ceilings to rise with
urban wages.
Senator Lee contended the OMa-
honey amendment was necessary
to maintain and increase produc-

ties" he said" will not only not
hinder the war effort but will &C
tually help it.
THE O'Mahoney amendment. II
agreed to, will help win the war;
He added that parity prices as
now defined, based on 1909-1914
levels, did not constitute q fair re-
turn for the farm.
Senator OMahoney said the pur-
pose of the Senate farm amend
ments was Ito help the Administra-
tion increase the production of
agricultural products and thereby
increase the supply"
1T is well known" he added, that
when the supply is increased there
is very little chance of an increase

Matching continuously can be seen from
the startling fact that bees hatched
prior to the 1st of october live but
six weeks. and only half Of that period
is spent outdoors gathering honey. Bees
Matched later in the fall are luckier. or
perhaps unluckier. considering what
their humdrum totalitarian lives must

It Is not sufficient merely to enlarge
the queens quarters. Her majesty must

them to hatch into queens. Queen cells
look something like peanuts. Once they
reach the goal and turn into queens they
will be in position to head the colony
and the old queen will gather together
thousands Of her subjects and will leave

trouble to provide them. And it is trou-

blow smoke into the hive to make its

orchardist, who Is glad to pay 1t for

Prof. Abrams incidentally released the
information that the first air-conditioned
home in history must have been a bee
hive. Photographs have been made on
hot day showing bees tanning their
wings and creating cooling draughts Of
air within the hive, to keep the wax
combs from melting and the population
from going crazy with the heat.
1T looks clever, but 1t is all instinct"
he said. The same applies to the nu-

A hive of bees costs about SIS and

BY Basil Gordon.

The bee Is defense worker.
So says the Department Of Agriculture,
explaining that its two main products,
honey and wax are both needed for ma
tional defense. Honey is sugar sub
stitute, and wax is needed in airplane
construction and also for coating metal,
especially during ocean transport. where
it acts as a protective against the cor
rosive damage Of salt water and spray.
In fact, the department has sent out q
call to double the production Of bee prod
ucts.
In the last war, when the same call
went out, there were many amateur
apiarists who literally and truly took
great pains and got stung. They were
much disappointed to find that they got
very little honey. U. S. D. A. does not
want to increase number of beekeepers
for this reason. This was because
there is q whole lot more to beekeeping
than merely buying hive, inserting q
colony of bees, and then collecting peri
odical dividends while the bees did all
the work. To get anywhere, the bee
keeper must know what it's all about,
and the best way to learn Is from an ex-
pert.
Such a man Is George ]. Abrams,

sending out scouts from the temporary
cluster, or whether they emulate the
bank robber and the gangster. and ac-
tually send out spies from the main hive
to ease the Joint" before they swarm.
In either case, the old queen knows
nothing about 1t; she has never been out
doors before, except once the previous
year to mate.
"The wise apiarist." said the professor,
will remove the budding queens before
they hatch, and thus prevent swarmins.
And if he wants to establish new colony
he can plant the unmatched queens else
where"
A secondary source Of revenue to the
beeieeper is the rental of his hives to
orchardists. When the petals show pink,
hives are placed in the orchard for about
10 days, and while the bees make honey,
they crawl all over the blossoms and
carry pollen from one to another. which
insures virtually complete fertilization.
Then. Just before the orchardist is ready
to spray poison, the apiarist loads up
the hives in q truck at night and moves
them back to his apiary. Before he leaves
he collects about s. per hive from the
