versa, to see what they would do. It worked 

 all right as far as I can see. The robber-bees 

 were pretty quiet for a few days, but are now 

 working nicely. The weak colony, of course, 

 got the tield-ltees, and peace once more reigns 

 in our midst. 1 don't know much about bees, 

 but I had to do something, so tried the best 

 thing I could think of. I put away 5 colo- 

 nies last fall, and brought them through the 

 winter, but lost one after putting them out 

 this spring. H. E. Bartholomew.

Home-Made Hives— Honey on Coast 



It is hard to say what is best for others, 

 but as I am a carpenter and have a saw-table 

 and tools I can make hives cheaper than I 

 can buy them. Hive-bodies that cost 50 cents 

 at the supply dealer's in Portland cost me 30 

 cents or less to make them, reckoning $3 per 

 day for the work, and I use better lumber. In 

 the apiary no one could tell the difference be- 

 tween them 'uJ the factory-made hive. It 

 there is a bee-supply trust I don't know it, 

 but nearly all have the same prices. How 

 would it do for the bee-keepers to form a trust 

 or a union? 



On page IW it says, "Oregon was repre- 

 sented by a small quantity of inferior honey," 

 at St. Louis last year. Perhaps that is true, 

 but it also says, " It is said that the honey 

 gathered near the Coast is inferior in quality 

 to that obtained further inland." I am in 

 Wahkiakum county, on the Coast, and have
