pect of a natural swarm I intend to divide 

 one colony which is not quite strong enough 

 to make any surplus, and think I can build 

 it up to two good colonies for winter.

White honey crop is a failure. Buck-

 to anything.

Caught 20 Swarms 



My little busy bees are rushing me in this 

 hot weather. Last winter I lost all but seven 

 colonies. I cleaned out the old hives, set 

 them around in the timber and have caught 

 twenty swarms. I shall get five or six bar- 

 rels of honey and one thousand pounds of 

 super honey.
