Fic. 3.— When the bees of a strong colony eat up the candy almost entirely, they not infrequently 
build cumbs, and have been known even to rear brood, in the box. This shows (upper part of the 
picture, in corners) the remaining candy upon which the bees were still at work, also having attached 
combs to the glass. Some beekeepers have removed such a box of combs and brood, starting there- 
from a new colony. In order to get the correct relation of the picture, hold it directly above your 
head. The combs will then appear pendulous from the glass, and in their correct position, as if lifted 
off from the tops of the frames.
