the time to study the bee business, prepare hives, crates and boxes, and 

 all necessary implements. Decide with regard to setting out shade trees 

 for their honey qualities, orchards, and cultivation of honey crops so as

 comes. See that hives are protected from cold winds, and occasionally 

 clear the dead bees from the bottom board. As in January, keep the 

 bees quiet as possible. 



We would advise beginners especially to study carefully this Monthly

 ing to climate, the particular season, and the honey flow at the time. 

 In bee-keeping it is of the first importance that the right thing be done 

 at the right time.
