G1.EANINGS IN BEE CULTURE. 



Dec. 15 



Bees gave no surplus this season, owing to the dn,' 

 weather and absence of white clover, which was killed 

 by last winter's freezes and absence of snow to pro- 

 tect it. Aster is blooming-, and plentj- of it. 



Boston Sta., Ky , Sept. 21. ' M. S Gosney. 



These contradictory reports would al- 

 most seem to indicate that sweet clover is a 

 different plant in some localities from what 

 it is in others; but we frequently have con- 

 tradictory reports on the matter, right in 

 the same neig-hborhood. It certainly inakes 

 a difference in reg'ard to the stage of growth 

 at the time it is given to the horses and cat- 

 tle. When it first comes up, before the 

 stalks have had time to become tough and 

 woody, I have seen it eaten with avidity by 

 anj^ horses or cattle I have offered it to — 

 that is, after they found out it was good to 

 eat.
