Gleanings in bee culture . e it ifthey carry a complete line of groceries. Thenumber of wholesale merchants is very largeas compared with those who make a special-ty of honey. With a little assistance fromthe producer they would quite as soon buyof him as the honey-merchant, and will, onthe whole, give better prices than the com-mission men. Another way is the generous advertising ofwhat you have to sell in any or all of ourbet-journals. Let me illustrate. Suppose I wished to buy 10, 000 pounds ofclover honey. Mr. B., living in WesternNew York, has just this amount, and he tellsme so in a little advertisement costing him, perhaps, a dollar. How much better for himand myself for me to buy of him direct thanfor him to ship to New York and pay thefreight, cartage, insurance, commission, etc., and then, perhaps, get no more, or but atritie more, than I would pay him, and haveit shipped direct to me! Thus with the in-creasing number of purchases the chance ofgetting all our produce is worth is very sen-sibly increased.. SUPERSEDURE QUEENS. I should like to have a little talk withyou, Mr. Doolittle, about queens which areabout to be superseded a little time beforethe honey haivest. This past spring I foundthat some of my older queens had hard workto keep up the strength of the colony. Apart of these colonies Would build supersed-ure queen-cells, and, although not very fullof bees, several of them would swarm on thesecells unless prevented. About what time in the spring did thishappen, Mr. Sweet? A large part of these colonies motheredby these queens would endeavor to supersedein May or June, and, although not by anymeans as strong in bfees as those motheredby younger queens, quite a lot would swarmon these cells. What course did you pursue with thesecolonies? I had started in to control swarming.Every queen that seemed able to do reason-able service till the flow should come was re- tained, and the cells cut out. To do this Ihandled over the brood-combs of the entireapiary (
