154 FIFTY YEARS AMONG THE BEES 



BAIT-SECTIONS. 



Bait-sections are put in enough supers so tliat the first 

 super put on each hive shall be baited. Generally only one 

 bait-section is in a super, the bait being in the center, and 

 these baited supers are piled in the storeroom where it will be 

 convenient to reach them first.

 SATISFACTION IN HATING SUPERS READY. 



There is a feeling of real satisfaction in seeing the larger 

 jiart of the storeroom filled with piles of supers ready to go on 

 the hives. How many times I have counted them and admired 

 the nice even piles reaching to the ceiling! Perhaps I should 

 not appreciate them so much if I had not, years ago, felt the 

 annoyance of running out of sections or foundation right in 

 the middle of the honey season, waiting days for it, and the 

 lioney wasting.
