past season; and there are .still about 80 

 more colonies of the same strain in the 

 model ajnaiy at the West of Scotland Agri- 

 cultural College, Glasgow, says A. G. Pugh 

 in the British Bee Journal for Feb. 20. The 

 scheme of restocking with disease-resisting 

 bees is at present being taken u[) in many 

 parts of England. 



}[ONM':V SHIl-riiRS FIXKI). 



An attempt to ship 100 tons of honey 

 overseas without conforming to the regula- 

 tions limiting sj)ace to certain ])roduce, says 

 the Australasian Beekeeper, resulted in the 

 conviction, fine, and costs of the two ship- 

 pers, as well as the forfeiture of the honey, 

 valued at £7,000.

MARKET CONDITIOX.S 



"We would not advise the shipment of 

 any more old-crop honey at this time. Hold 

 it off the market. Telegraphic reports show 

 the weakness of the present market and the 

 danger of forcing it down by overloading at 

 this stage. If you have unsold honey, keep 

 it until new prices are made." — February 

 Beekeepers' Item.

demuth's start in beekeepinq. 

 George S. Demuth 's beginning in beekeep- 

 ing is briefly mentioned in the American 

 Bee Journal for March. There we find he 

 began beekeeping at the age of 14 years, 

 and that he paid for his first colony by 

 making fires and cleaning the schoolhouse at 

 five cents a day, it requiring 110 days to 

 raise enough money to purchase the first 



colony.

PACKAGE BEES BY THE TON. 



Two large purchases of package bees is 

 mentioned in the February Western Honey- 

 bee — one for a ton of bees and queens as 

 needed to be used somewhere in California, 

 and the other for about four tons, and 

 queens in proportion, these to be shipped out 

 of the State. When the price on a single 

 order for bees runs into five figures it is time 

 to sit up and take notice.
