. Bees for pleasure and profit; a guide to the manipulation of bees, the production of honey, and the general management of the apiary. Bees. BEE-KEEPING IN HOT CLIMATES. 93 materially increase their respective incomes, but also help to develop what should be a great export industry. Eoul brood— as great a scourge to bee-keepers as phylloxera is to wine- farmers—^is at present unknown in South Africa, and it would doubtless need but little pressure from the farmers to induce the Government to prohibit by legislation the importation of queens and bees from other countries except under the most drastic quarantine regulations, and thus insure the country against the introduction of this devastating plague. Ants Must be Guarded Against. In nearly all hot climates ants are a great source of annoyance to the bee-keeper. They will often attack strong stocks in great force, while it is no uncommon thing to see them entirely destroy a weak nucleus in a couple of hours. Fortunately they will not swim. In localities where they are troublesome all hives should, therefore, be stood on legs, about 10 inches or a foot long, and 1| inches square, nailed to the floor boards and stands. When attacked by arts, each leg must be stood in a round tin filled with water or paraffin oil. Iron shoes (fig. 45), . Fig. 45. Iron shoes for screwing to the base of hive legs. intended to be screwed to the feet of the hive legs, and the cups to be filled with water or paraffin oil, may be had from Messrs. Lee & Sons, of Highbury, London; Mr. George Eose, of Great Charlotte Street, Liverpool; or from Mr. Taylor, of Welwyn, Herts. These are very useful when waging war against ants in England, but for hot countries the cups are generally too small, the great heat evaporating the contents so very quickly..
