. Annual report of the Cornell University Agricultural Experiment Station, Ithaca, N.Y. Cornell University. Agricultural Experiment Station; Agriculture -- New York (State). Fig. I Fig. 2 Fig. 3 of her closed wings. (Fig. p. 78, i.) She has no pollen baskets or pollen combs on her legs, because it is not a part of her work to gather pollen or honey. The queen bee starts life as an ordinary worker egg; this o^gg is selected by the worker bees for development; the partitions of the cells around the cell in which it was laid are torn away and a large projection is built out over the top. (Fig. p. 78, 4.) As' soon as the tgg hatches into a little white grub it is fed for three days on the same food as other worker larvae; then a special substance secreted by the work- er bees, called royal jelly, is fed to this favored larva. This food is very nourish- ing and develops the larva to its fullest extent. After being thus fed for five days the cell is sealed and the larva weaves around her- self a silken cocoon and changes to a pupa. When she changes from a pupa to a full-grown bee she cuts a circle in the cover of the cell and finds her way out. Her first work is to hunt for other queen cells and if she finds one she usually makes a hole in its' side and stings to death the poor prin- cess within. If in her first walk she finds another full-grown The Honey Bee III.—r, Oueen Bee, enlarged; 2, Drone; ^"^^" ^^^^ t'^° ^sht J, Worker; 4, Queen cells. until one succumbs. The queen never uses her sting upon anything or any one but a rival queen. After a few days she takes her marriage flight in the air where she mates with some drone and then returns to her hive and begins her work as the mother of a colony by laying eggs in the cells. She runs about on the comb, pokes her head into a cell to see if it is ready, then turning about thrusts her abdomen in and neatly glues an egg fast to the bottom. When the honey season is at its height she works with great rapidity, s
