BEE HUNTERS OF THE 
MOUNTAINS 
(continued from page S8i) 
able capacity, is an arrant coward after the 
tree is felled, and the enraged workers be¬ 
gin to “zoon around.” His father-in.-law, 
Jake Sharp, or someone else is always 
called upon to remove the honey from 
John’s trees. John always goes along to 
assist in cutting the tree, but if a single 
bee buzzes near him, he is off like a scared 
rabbit. His antics are the chief joy of 
the other men. 
T HE sun was just peeping above the 
mountain-tops in the cool morning of 
one of those mellow late summer days 
which come only to the Southern moun¬ 
tains, when Arthur Francis and I started 
out with intent to rifle a tree which he had 
discovered near the top of a neighboring 
mountain. We were accompanied by a 
party of half a dozen townsfolk. 
There was a climb of 1,200 feet to be 
negotiated. We labored first up an old 
trail, which grew steeper and steeper until 
it reached the foot of the “lower bluff.” 
Here a stranger would have been at 
standstitll; but Arthur promptly led the 
way up a series of notches and shelves in 
the face of the cliff, which have long been 
known to the neighborhood as “the Wild¬ 
cat Steps.” To most of us, this was the 
most enjoyable part of the trip. Having 
reached the top of the rock, there was an¬ 
other toil up a steep slope, and then we 
skirted the base of the “upper bluff” for 
half a mile or so, when Arthur threw 
down his axe, and said, “Hyer she is.” 
“She” was a stubby, thick-stemmed 
chestnut, with a very bushy top. Arthur 
attacked the tree at once with his axe. It 
was a vile place for such work—a forty- 
five degree slope, nearly all jagged rock. 
.Arthur and I spent a goodly portion of 
our time on our hands and knees or in a 
sitting position. The tree-trunk being 
hollow all the way down, it was soon 
felled. The heavy top formed a sort of 
cushion in falling for the limb containing 
the hive, so that the latter remained in¬ 
tact. In many cases, the trunk or limb 
in which the hive is located, being a mere 
shell of dotted wood, bursts or cracks 
when the tree falls, thus rendering the 
honey easy of access. I once saw a falling 
tree strike the part containing the honey 
right across a big rock, smashing the trunk 
to flinders, and crushing honey, bees and 
punkwood into an inseparable loblolly. 
As our tree fell, Arthur donned what 
he called his “bee dress,” consisting of a 
gunny sack with a section cut out, and a 
piece of black mosquito netting sewed 
therein for purposes of observation. In 
this garb he looks not unlike a member 
of the late well-known Ku-Klux Klan. 
Jake Sharp, by the way, is a fearsome 
sight in his bee-costume, which he makes 
by opening up the bottom of a meal sack, 
and fastening it to the wooden rim of an 
old-fashioned, round hand-sifter. The 
meal-sack is drawn over his head and tied 
around his neck, the surplus flowing grace¬ 
fully over his shoulders, while the sifter 
hangs in front of his face, giving at once 
protection and outlook.
