THE AMERICAN BEE JOURNAL. 



Aug. 6', 1903. 



I got an Alley queen-trap, fixed it on the en- 

 trance to another hive, drove the bees all 

 through the trap into another hive, but the 

 queen was not to be found. So 1 put them all 

 back into their own hive, put them back on 

 the old stand, and 3 or 4 days later found 

 fresh eggs. So I suppose she has resumed 

 business on the old stand. Fred Tyler.

No Nectar in White Clover. 



Mr. France must hustle, or white clover 

 must secrete there. Here, with the greatest 

 crop of white clover, bees do not touch it. 

 BasBwood is nothing. Alsike is all I received 

 my honey from, till lately, sweet clover is 

 coming on. The bees got just enough every 

 day to build up well. The greatest year for 

 swarming and the most runaway swarms in 

 the history of the country. N. A. Kluck.

Producer's Name on Honey. 



I wish a word or two about the producer's 

 name on honey-packages. I hold that the 

 producer has a perfect right to put his name 

 and address on every package of honey sent 

 out by him. On page 447 W.W. McNeal says: 



"The producer who contends he is robbed 

 of his rights when he is denied the privilege 

 of ornamenting small honey-packages with 

 his name and address, when such are not to

 Batavia, III., Aug. 21, 1901. 



Dear Sir:— I thought I would let you know as 

 to results of the nucleus sent me. They were 

 placed in 10-frame hives and now they are in 

 fine condition. From one I removed 24 pounds 

 of honey and had to g-ive fr of them more room, 

 as they were hanging- out. They have more 

 than reached my expectations. 



Yours respectfully, E. K. Meredith. 

 Davenport, Iowa, Dec. 31, l^Ol. 



Your queens are fully up to standard. The 

 honey queen that you sent my brother takes the 

 lead. She had a rousing colony when put up 

 for winter. The goldens can be handled with- 

 out smoke or veil. Very truly yours, 



John Thoeming.
