face. The place is a little paradise for 

 the bee, which moves from cup to cup 

 sipping^, and apparently making the 

 same movements as when gathering 

 nothing- but nectar. At short intervals 

 it rises, works its legs as when placing 

 pollen, and then alights again on 

 another part of the cluster, only to re- 

 peat the movements. The light-col- 

 ored pollen is plainly seen, and the 

 fact that the bee is intent on sipping 

 from every bloom it comes to is evi- 

 dence that it obtains at least some nec- 

 tar. E. S. Roe.

Vepy Poof Season. 



The past season was a very poor one 

 for me. Bees did not do anything 

 after July 1st, but what honey I did 

 have was fancy, and I got a good price 

 for it. 



I should be lost without the Ameri- 

 can Bee Journal. J. L. Haight.

Heavy Loss on the Cotton Crop. 



My bees did fairly well the past sea- 

 son, but I lost my cotton crop by the 

 overflows. The loss amounted to 

 about Sl.SOO. The crop was overflowed 

 on two occasions in September, and 

 again in October. J. D. Givens.

Sainfoin— A Brewery Plant. 



I notice Mr. Dadant mentions sain- 

 foin, or esparcette, or Holy hay. as a 

 honey-plant in France. I have con- 

 verst with an Irishman about it, and 

 he says that in Ireland it j-ields great 

 quantities of nectar, and is an excel- 

 lent fodder-plant. I would like to 

 know if anj' bee-keeper in America has 

 had any experience with this plant,
