reports shall be submitted by each com- 

 munity man whenever changes in the 

 local labor situation make desirable 

 further adjustments that cannot be met 

 with the material at hand, or when a 

 surplus of labor develops which he can- 

 not use. 



A great many retired farmers, of 

 whom there are 700,000 in the country, 

 may be available for emergency service 

 under this plan of farm labor mobiliza- 

 tion. The plans contemplate also the 

 drawing of emergency labor from the 

 cities under the immediate direction of 

 the Department of Labor, the effective 

 utilization of college students and 

 school boys, and, if necessary, the 

 assignment of volunteer women and 

 girls to rural tasks connected particu- 

 larly with feeding and caring for har- 

 vest hands or other extra labor, or with 

 farm canning or drying of surplus 

 perishable products. In other words, 

 the plan contemplates supplying assist- 

 ance not merely for field operations but 

 to farm women during their season of 

 heaviest domestic duties. 



The Wastefulness of Swarming 



U. S. Department of Agriculture 



THE old-time beekeeper boasted of 

 the number of swarms which issued 

 from his hives, but the modern bee- 

 keeper knows that swarming is one of 

 his worst obstacles to producing a large 

 crop. The modern beekeeper knows 

 from experience that after he has given 

 all his energy to getting every colony 

 as strong as possible at the beginning of 

 the honey-flow, he must not permit the 

 bees then to spoil it all by dividing 

 their forces. 



Of course, it is impossible to do any- 

 thing toward controlling swarming 

 when the bees are in a box or "gum," 

 and this is the chief reason why bees 

 in a movable-frame hive are more 

 profitable. It is also unfortunately true 

 that in spite of the beekeeper's most 

 strenuous efforts, colonies will some- 

 times swarm. In that event the bee- 

 keeper makes the most of a bad situa- 

 tion by keeping the forces together in 

 another way.
