After this, for an hour no more ants came. On this

July 18. — I put out the hoards as before at 4 o'clock. 

 Up to 4.25 no ant came. I then put one (No. 1) to the 

 honey ; she fed for a few minutes, and went away 

 at 4.31.

 nearly straight to the honey. At 4.42 she went away, 

 but came back almost directly, fed, and went away again. 



At 4.57 she returned, and at 5.8 went away again.
