different content
cheaper article, especially as it forms besides an excellent spring
stimulant, though still too high-priced to be freely used.

A bee-keeping friend has procured for us a quantity of seed of the

Partridge Pea (Cassia chamæcrysta) mentioned by one of our
western correspondents, (Mr. Ingels, of Oskaloosa, Iowa,) as an
excellent honey plant. It was in bloom here from the middle of July
to the middle of October, and frequented by that bees, in crowds, all
the time.

This plant is usually classed among weeds, and where it occurs, is

regarded by some as one of the pests of the farm; but as it is an
annual, it ought not to be difficult to get rid of it by proper
management, when its presence is undesirable. Blooming during the
interval between spring and fall pasturage, it constitutes an
important resource for bees, here and in other districts, at a period
when the native vegetation fails to furnish supplies.

In the third volume of the Transactions of the American Philosophical

Society, Dr. Greenfield of Virginia speaks of the Partridge Pea as
furnishing means to recruit worn-out lands, by its decomposition in
the soil when plowed under. It was, we understand, originally
introduced for that purpose, in the District of Columbia, by the Hon.
Benjamin Stoddert, while Secretary of the Navy; and it would
probably answer well as a substitute for red clover, where from
poverty of soil, the latter could not yet be grown.

We hope to be able to make satisfactory arrangements for the

distribution of the seed among bee-keepers desiring to make trial of
the plant, and if successful, will state particulars in our next.
We learn from Mr. Adam Grimm, of Jefferson (Wis.,) that his crop of
surplus honey, this year, is over 15,000 lbs., and that he “could take
at least 10,000 lbs. more from his hives, and still leave the stocks
heavy enough to winter well.” Such a result as this must be
calculated to unsettle the notions of those who “have kept bees
many years, and know there is nothing to be made by it!”

We intended to give a brief history of the opposition to the meeting

of the National Convention of Bee-keepers at Indianapolis, showing
when and where it originated, and what were the obvious motives
and objects of those most active in the business. But as it appears to
be a “fixed fact” now that the Convention will be held at the time
and placed designated, we shall save ourselves the trouble of
hunting up musty records in the limbs of things forgotten.

👉 Since the above was put in type we have learned incidentally

that it was resolved at Utica by the N. E. Bee-keepers Association to
hold another Convention elsewhere, though particulars have not
reached us. We sincerely regret this proceeding on various accounts.
 CORRESPONDENCE OF THE BEE
JOURNAL.
Trenton, Ills., Sept. 12, 1870.—The forepart of this season I think
was the poorest I ever saw in this neighborhood. Last winter was a
very warm and open one, and the bees dwindled down very much,
so that nearly all stocks were quite weak before spring. Then we had
a severe snow storm on the 17th of April, with two or three freezing
nights, that killed nearly all the peach blossoms; and this was
followed by a period of cold high winds through May. The first two
weeks of June there was cloudy, drizzling, chilly weather, so that
bees could not fly more than about half the time. The consequence
of all this was, late swarms and very few of them. Not more than
one-sixth of the stocks swarmed, and many of the latest of them
starved. It was very dry from the middle of June to the 13th of
August. Then, for a week, it rained nearly every day; at the end of
which some of my hives had not more than a pound of honey
remaining. Since that time they have been doing very well. Most of
my hives were filled up, so that they commenced working in the
surplus boxes about the middle of last week, and some of them have
now as much as fifteen pounds in the boxes.

I would like Novice to tell us how he gets his board and frame into
the top of his hive, if his hives are all of one size. I have a few of the
two-story hives made by the National Bee-hive Company at St.
Charles, Illinois, and I cannot get a frame into the top story in any
other way than perpendicular, as the top bar of the frame is longer
than the inside of the hive. I have tried one to see how it would
work.—C. T. Smith.
Dowagiac, Mich., Sept. 12—We have had just half a surplus honey
harvest, here, this season. Since I have been in the bee business, I
have learned that the surplus harvest depends entirely upon the
clover and basswood blossoms, in this vicinity; which is probably the
case all over the State. When we have a wet season clover fails, but
basswood produces well; and when a dry season, vice versa.
Reverses from abundance to starvation take place within a few miles
of each other. I am located now in the midst of clover and
basswood, together with the best spring and fall pasturage I have
ever seen. After losing seven-eighths of my bees last winter, you can
easily guess the condition of the remaining six colonies. Four of
them were merely skeletons, and the other two very inferior stocks.
Yet, with the aid of a three cent feeder of my own invention, (which
works to perfection,) and one and a fourth dollar’s worth of sugar, I
have succeeded in marketing five hundred and twenty-three (523)
pounds of box honey; and with the aid of old combs have increased
my stock to twenty-two (22) colonies, all strong and heavy—too
heavy I fear, for their own good; and I have as yet no emptying
machine. This, I think, is doing very well (see Langstroth’s “Hive and
Honey Bee,” page 177) for a bee-keeper of only two years’
experience.—I came near forgetting to mention that I have
Italianized all my new stocks. I use top-bar hives mostly. Am using
four or five frame hives on the sly!—J. Heddon.

Winchester, Iowa, Sept. 13.—The season of 1870 has not been any of
the best here, nor of the poorest either, as swarming and honey
gathering has been moderately good. The American Bee Journal well
deserves the support of bee-keepers.—I. N. Walter.

Rochelle, Ills., Sept. 17.—This has been the poorest season that we
have had here for some years. I got only five new swarms from forty
stands, and merely one hundred pounds of honey. Since the
buckwheat came into blossom the bees have done well. They will
average about fifty pounds to the stand; and that is doing very well,
in such a year as this has been. Alsike clover is now in blossom, and
the bees are working very busily on it.—R. Miller.
Breesport, N. Y., Sept. 20.—My bees have done well in gathering
honey, this season; but gave me no swarms during swarming time.—
J. H. Hadsell.

Oskaloosa, Iowa, Sept. 28.—I have one hundred and ninety colonies
of bees that have done well this year, and are in fine condition for
winter. I stored away one hundred and twenty-nine colonies in my
cellar last fall, and the same number came out in good order in the
spring. I sold them off to about one hundred, from which I came on
to winter with the above number (190), principally Italians.

Enclosed please find specimen of a bee plant. What is it? It blooms

from first of July to last of August profusely and is visited by bees
thrice as much as buckwheat. I have tried borage, melilot, alsike,
mustard, and find nothing to equal it. I calculate to cultivate it, in
order to give it a fair and full trial. I have secured about a peck of
seed. The great advantage is that it blooms at a time when most
needed in this country. I grew it this year alongside of buckwheat
that bloomed at the same time.—S. Ingels.

[The plant enclosed is the Cassia chamæcrista or Partridge Pea. It is

an annual, growing in most sandy soil, and is common in the south.
It grows here on the eastern branch of the Potomac (the Anacostia),
and bees derive plentiful supplies of forage from it during eight or
ten weeks in summer, and it is then almost their only resource. They
gather pollen from the blossoms, but the honey is secreted by a
small cupshaped gland situated below the lowest pair of leaflets, and
is supplied abundantly for a long period.—Some of the farmer’s here-
abouts affect to consider it a pernicious and ineradicable weed; but
as it is an annual and known to be an excellent fertilizer when
plowed under, it would seem to indicate slovenly management not to
be able to subdue it readily where not wanted.—Ed.]

Vervilla, Tenn., Sept. 24.—I consider the Journal cheap at any price
for the bee-keeper, and wish it could be published oftener.—Dr. J. M.
Bell.
Warsaw, Minn., Oct. 3.—This has been a poor season for bees here,
except in basswood time.—L. B. Aldrich.

Cedarville, Ills., Oct. 5.—My bees have done well this season.—
Robert Jones.

Meredith, Pa., Oct. 4.—Bees did very well on white clover in this
section this season, but very poorly on buckwheat. My sixty stocks
did not give me sixty pounds of buckwheat honey surplus, all told;
although they are all in good condition for wintering.

I do not think that alsike clover has been over-estimated for bee
pasturage. I had three-quarters of an acre of it this season, and I
never saw a piece of land so covered with bees as that was while it
was in bloom, and they gathered honey from it very fast.—M.
Wilson.

Orchard, Iowa, Oct. 6.—It is raining heavily to-day, yet the weather is
warm and we have not had a particle of frost yet. Bees have done
storing surplus honey for the season.—I shall give the result of the
season’s operations as soon as I can get the time. At present I am
up 4 A. M., and do not get home till 8 and sometimes 9 o’clock P. M.
I must have a little relaxation from such excessive hard labor, before
I can confine or control my thoughts sufficiently to write for
publication. From the past season’s operations with the honey
extractor, I can endorse all that Novice claims over and above the
old mode of getting surplus in the comb—E. Gallup.

New Bedford, Mass., Oct. 6.—The season for bees has been
remarkable. Commencing well, the dry weather soon made forage
very scarce during the blooming of clover and basswood, so that by
the first of September there was little or no surplus stored, and all
the colonies were very light. But during that month, mostly after the
fifteenth, the bees gathered honey as fast or faster than they ever
do in this locality in June. It was obtained from the wild aster; and
the stocks are now heavy and in fine condition for winter. Even now
there seems to be no cessation of their labors. This is true of all the
neighboring towns; nearly every hive in them having been examined
by me during my professional drives.—E. P. Abbe.

 How May Progress be Taught?
Mr. Editor:—As the columns of the Bee Journal are made the
medium of disseminating apicultural knowledge, by asking and
answering questions, I have this question to ask in reference to the
class of bee-keepers who use box and gum exclusively. How shall we
reach these, and dispense the necessary knowledge among them?
Let us endeavor to devise some effective means. Your Journal is
doing the work as far as they can be induced to take and study it;
but the number is comparatively limited. Many of these people,
when they see an improved bee-hive, unconsciously exclaim to the
owner, who happens to be a practical bee-keeper:

“Mr. B.—What do you call that?”

B. “That, sir, is a bee-hive.”

Q. “What do you have so many sticks in it for?”

B. “Those are what we call frames for the bees to build their combs
on; each frame separately giving them the means by which the
combs may be removed from the hive, for the purpose of making
artificial swarms, furnishing honey from the rich to the poor colonies
and strengthening weak ones.”

Here the querist exclaims in perfect amazement: “What will the bees
be doing while you are lifting their combs out?”

B. “If you treat the bees right they will not harm you; besides we
can have a protection, made of wire cloth, or what is more handy, a
piece of bobbinet to place over the face; and by keeping the hands
wet, the bees will not sting, unless they are badly treated.”
Q. “What a fool I have been. I have kept bees all my life, and never
before knew what I needed. I suppose if you can lift out the combs,
as you say you can, you could find the king’s house and perhaps the
king himself?”

B. “There is no such bee in the hive.”

Q. “What! no king bee! Why I always understood that a colony of

bees without a king and ruler, whose mandates are strictly obeyed,
will not be worth anything.”

B. “The bee you allude to is the mother of the colony and is called
the queen; but she has no house or particular spot in the hive in
which she dwells. The worker-bees, however, construct what are
called queen-cells, in which queens are reared; but they never
remain in them, except only while in embryo.”

Q. “Why, Mr. B., you seem to know as much about bees as the man I
heard a neighbor speak of. He said there was a man living in Iowa
that reared king bees (perhaps you would call them queen bees) of
a superior and different kind from the common bee, and brought
from some other country.”

B. “Yes, we rear our own queens, or in other words we cause the

bees to do so, by our artificial process. This we do for the purpose of
furnishing fertilized queens to old stocks, when their queens are
taken away, as is the case in producing artificial swarms.”

Q. “Then you can make bees swarm, and rear queens at your will?”

B. “Yes.”

Q. “But do you never find a hive that is not in the notion of

swarming? I always thought that bees knew when they wanted to
swarm, better than man did.”
B. “Bees have only instinct, and were not intended in the beginning
to produce their own swarms. They were created for the benefit of
man, and if that had been the way swarms were intended to be
made, they would be made in conformity with natural laws that
govern them, and swarming would always be successfully performed
in perfection. Man was given knowledge, by means of which it was
intended he should manage his bees in his own way, independent of
any will they may have. The penalty for man’s neglect in this respect
is the loss of his bees in various ways—such as swarming and
departing to parts unknown, loss of queen, extermination by
robbing, &c. Man, therefore, endowed with knowledge and
judgment, knows more of the management, for his benefit, of the
internal parts of the hive, than the bees, with mere instinct, can
possibly know.”

Q. “I perceive, sir, that these are the days of our ignorance spoken
of in Holy Writ, though I was never able to see it till now. Some of
my neighbors, a few years ago, purchased bees which were in
common boxes and gums. They brought them home and set them
down in a remote corner of the yard or garden, to live or die, as
they might or could, with no attention whatever, except when the
time came to secure some of their delicious stores, which, with
shame I confess, is the practice in all the neighborhood now.”

B. “Your statement is only too true, if indeed the facts are not
worse.”

This is a fair specimen of the questions asked by common bee-

keepers.

While the inventive genius of the age has given power to water in
the form of steam, causing the face of the earth to be alive with
machinery and wheels that are almost daily circumscribing its
surface at lightning speed—yea, the lightning itself has, as it were,
been snatched from the heavens and made to do the bidding of man
—yet the bee-hive, till within the last fifteen years, has in a measure
remained as it may have been in the garden of Eden. The invention
of the frames was the dawn of a new era in bee-keeping, by means
of which we have advanced step by step up the hill of science to the
present advanced stage, while progression still looms up and fades
away in the distance. The mysteries of the hive that remained
hidden from the beginning till now, are, many of them, solved and
being solved, and all the various causes of the destruction of
colonies plainly disclosed. The practical man, properly informing
himself, need not lose a hive; while, in the old way, twenty-five per
cent, of all the bees kept in the country are lost every year. While we
have reached these advances, there are many things yet in embryo,
that will be reached by and by—such as the control of fertilization,
which enables the bee-keeper to select both queens and drones, and
secure the purity of the race we prefer to cultivate. We also expect a
forcing-box, hiver, and swarmer, all combined; and means which will
enable the bee-keeper to compel a plurality of queens in every
colony, without division, in the same apartment.

But I am wandering from my purpose, which was simply to start the

inquiry—how shall we reach, and dispense the necessary knowledge
among those who still keep their bees in unimproved hives? The
State governments should foster bee culture as they foster other
agricultural pursuits. Why not have a separate department for bee
culture in every State, under the charge of a man qualified to
superintend it and diffuse its advantages in the community? In some
of the German States the number of hives will average hundreds to
the square mile, and that too in soil comparatively sterile. How was
this brought about? Simply by encouraging and fostering the
business. And cannot the American States produce the same results?
Millions of barrels of honey go to waste annually in this country,
merely from the want of bees to gather the nectar of flowers. What,
say you, bee-keepers of Iowa, shall we not make a united effort to
secure the means by which those who have bees in our beautiful
State shall be furnished with power (knowledge) to effect the
gratifying change? The bees of every hive now in the State,
producing ordinarily ten, twenty, or thirty pounds, may be made to
produce annually from one hundred to two hundred pounds.

Mr. Gallup will please accept our thanks for his practical and
instructive communications in the Journal. Will he not favor us with
an article on this subject. Let Iowa be the first to take a stand in
favor of promoting bee culture.

J. W. Seay.

[For the American Bee Journal.]

 Argo’s Puzzle.
R. M. Argo has found a job for Gallup.

That bees will sometimes build worker-comb when there is no queen

present is a positive fact, but the rule is almost invariably drone
comb. The fact that they built one-third drone comb is no proof that
they did not have an old queen. If they are gathering honey
abundantly, they are very apt to build too much drone comb; and
sometimes they do so in such cases, even with a young prolific
queen. But with such a queen, when they are gathering just
sufficient to build comb and store but little honey, the rule is almost
invariably worker comb exclusively.

That bees will frequently make preparations for swarming

immediately after being hived is another positive fact, especially
when the season is good and the newly hived swarm is large. The
first case of the kind that came under my observation, occurred a
number of years ago in Canada. I hived an extra large swarm for a
neighbor, sometime in the forenoon. About four o’clock in the
afternoon the shout came across the mill stream, “my bees are
going off!” I left all, and followed them to a large pine stub. I cut
down the stub, split it open, took out the bees, put them in the
same hive. That night they were sold as an unlucky swarm, removed
3½ miles, and in just eight days from the time they were replaced in
the hive, they sent out a large swarm, which left for the woods. The
bees then belonged to my cousin. They left on Saturday. On Sunday
I went to church close by my cousin’s, and he informed me that his
bees had filled their hive and swarmed, and the swarm left for parts
unknown. I was rather incredulous, but after church went and made
an examination. Sure enough, the hive was completely filled and
several sealed queen cells were in sight, with several more unsealed
near the bottom of the comb. The hive was a box twelve inches
square by fourteen inches high, and when the swarm was hived I
had to put on a large box before the bees could all be got in the
hive. That box was nearly filled with comb, but the bees that went
off took the honey with them. On the fifteenth day they sent out a
second swarm. So much for purchasing an unlucky swarm!—Since
then I have had several cases of the same kind come under my
observation; one in the summer of 1868, and another this summer.
The one in 1868 was not a large swarm, and they did not fill their
hive before sending out a swarm. The case this season was a large
artificial swarm made by putting together bees from several hives,
with a queen.—I should be strongly inclined to think that, in your
case, they started queen cells for the purpose of superseding the old
queen. When a queen has begun to fail at about swarming time, and
forage is abundant, they cast a swarm. In my case, in 1868, it was
no doubt caused by the bees superseding the old queen. I had a
case this season, where the first swarm came out with a young
queen, leaving the old queen in the hive, with plenty of sealed
queen cells. In another case, when making an artificial swarm, I
found the old queen and a young one both, fertile, with several
sealed queen cells.

E. Gallup.

Orchard, Iowa.

The amputation of one of the antenna of a queen bee appears not

to affect her perceptibly, but cutting off both these organs produces
a very striking derangement of her proceedings. She seems in a
species of delirium, and deprived of all her instincts; everything is
done at random; yet the respect and homage of her workers,
towards her, though they are received by her with indifference,
continue undiminished. If another in the same condition be put in
the hive, the bees do not appear to discover the difference, and
treat them both alike; but if a perfect one be introduced, even
though fertile, they seize her, and keep her in confinement, and treat
her very unhandsomely. “One may conjecture from this
circumstance, that it is by those wonderful organs, the attennæ, that
the bees know their own queen.”

That which is profitable only to the speculating business, though it

be theoretically plausible, deserves not to be recommended or
accepted, if it be not calculated to produce beneficial results to the
practical bee-keeper.

3 In a subsequent communication in Vol. V., No. 10, Mr. B.

says that in place of old woollen garments, he covered the
frames last winter “with a sort of cotton batting
comforters made precisely like a comforter for a bed; and
that he likes these much better than old carpeting or old
clothes.” He had one made for each hive, costing about
twenty cents a piece. “By lifting one corner of these
comforters, the condition of the hive can be seen at a
glance. The bees are always found clustered up against
these warm comforters, and communicate over the tops
of the frames, instead of through the winter passages.”

Gutenberg™ electronic works, and the medium on which they may
be stored, may contain “Defects,” such as, but not limited to,
incomplete, inaccurate or corrupt data, transcription errors, a
copyright or other intellectual property infringement, a defective or
damaged disk or other medium, a computer virus, or computer
codes that damage or cannot be read by your equipment.

entity that provided you with the defective work may elect to provide

Section 2. Information about the Mission

of Project Gutenberg™
Project Gutenberg™ is synonymous with the free distribution of
electronic works in formats readable by the widest variety of
computers including obsolete, old, middle-aged and new computers.
It exists because of the efforts of hundreds of volunteers and
donations from people in all walks of life.

Volunteers and financial support to provide volunteers with the

assistance they need are critical to reaching Project Gutenberg™’s
goals and ensuring that the Project Gutenberg™ collection will
remain freely available for generations to come. In 2001, the Project
Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation was created to provide a
secure and permanent future for Project Gutenberg™ and future
generations. To learn more about the Project Gutenberg Literary
Archive Foundation and how your efforts and donations can help,
see Sections 3 and 4 and the Foundation information page at
www.gutenberg.org.

Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation

501(c)(3) educational corporation organized under the laws of the
state of Mississippi and granted tax exempt status by the Internal
Revenue Service. The Foundation’s EIN or federal tax identification

Section 4. Information about Donations to

the Project Gutenberg Literary Archive
Foundation
Project Gutenberg™ depends upon and cannot survive without
widespread public support and donations to carry out its mission of
increasing the number of public domain and licensed works that can
be freely distributed in machine-readable form accessible by the
widest array of equipment including outdated equipment. Many
small donations ($1 to $5,000) are particularly important to
maintaining tax exempt status with the IRS.

The Foundation is committed to complying with the laws regulating

charities and charitable donations in all 50 states of the United
States. Compliance requirements are not uniform and it takes a
considerable effort, much paperwork and many fees to meet and
keep up with these requirements. We do not solicit donations in
locations where we have not received written confirmation of
compliance. To SEND DONATIONS or determine the status of
compliance for any particular state visit www.gutenberg.org/donate.

While we cannot and do not solicit contributions from states where

we have not met the solicitation requirements, we know of no
prohibition against accepting unsolicited donations from donors in
such states who approach us with offers to donate.

International donations are gratefully accepted, but we cannot make

any statements concerning tax treatment of donations received from
outside the United States. U.S. laws alone swamp our small staff.

Please check the Project Gutenberg web pages for current donation
methods and addresses. Donations are accepted in a number of
other ways including checks, online payments and credit card
donations. To donate, please visit: www.gutenberg.org/donate.
