Ants in Beehives 
What causes ants to infest beehives, 
and what means should be taken to drive 
away ants without disturbing bees too 
much? ^ MRS. A. H. 
Tompkins Corners, N. Y. 
We find ants in the tops of our bee¬ 
hives frequently; they seem especially 
to enjoy the packing near the top in the 
side of the hives. It appears to be the 
heat that attracks them. Many times we 
find thousands of eggs there. We could 
never discover that the kind of ants we 
over one, also dropping in the hive when 
it is opened. If a sheet of felt tar pa¬ 
per is placed in the top of the hive or 
ground cloves are sprinkled around they 
will usually leave. G. w. b. 
“Must be a gentleman farmer located 
nearby.” "What makes you think that?” 
“I noticed the last scarecrow we passed 
had on golf togs.”—Kansas City Journal.
