Hunting Bees in Trees. 



On page 44."), L. J. Clark asks for informa- 

 tion about hunting wild beps. I am some- 

 what of a liee-bunter myself, and possibly 

 my way might help him. It is as follows : 



After basswood stops blooming (which in 

 this locality is usually in July), I take sonje 

 unflnisht sections of light honey for bait. 

 and three small boxes to catch bees in, I 

 select a clear spot in the woods near some 

 flowers where I can obtain bees, I divide 

 a section into three parts, placing a part in 

 each box. I then catch a bee in box No. 1, 

 and place near a section outside, which I 

 have for them to return to. Next I catch 

 a bee in box No. 2. and then uncover No. 1. 

 and so on until I have quite a number of 

 bees returning, which usually takes about 

 two hours 1 think that's where some bee- 

 hunters make a mistake, by not catching 

 enough bees, and not giving them sufficient 

 time to return and locate the bait. I And 

 that they will return to the open section 

 quicker than going into the boxes. 



After they are working nicely on the 

 bait, I procure my lines, there being some-
