GLEANINGS IN BEE CULTURE 



189 



Around the Office — Continued 



of one stake that was driven into the ground. 

 They weren 't supposed to move that stake 

 any. They were f eedin ' out around from the 

 stake, as goats do — nibble and pull, nibble 

 and pull — till they got to the ends of their 

 chains and all the grass there was eat up. 

 But they kept on pullin' after they had got 

 thru nibblin ' — till the stake pulled out of 

 the ground. Then they fed along peaceful, 

 chained together you see, of course. Of 

 course, too, they fed right towards the bees. 

 The devil never misses no such chance as to 

 get a goat pointed wrong. No, siree, he 

 don't. Of course, again, those two goats 

 fed up straddle the first hive they come to, 

 one on each side of it, and the chain twixt 

 'em draggin' up to the side of that hive. 

 Well, as them two goats fed on past the hive 

 and the chain tightened up agin the hive and 

 the goats kept goin ' ahead, it didn 't take no 

 civil engineer to see that that hive was 

 either goin' to stand up or tip over. Well, 

 it tipi>ed over. Holtermann says the way 

 them bees boiled out has left a record for 

 mad bees in Canady. He says they seemed
