.Bee . C'ulture
in Nebraska.
An Interesting Paper'IRead'
at the Farmers Institute by
Mrs. A. Lo Amos.
l or nearly fourteen .years I have
been lCeping bees with varying
success in Custer county.
When I commenced there was
110 one to give me any encouragement -
ment or le.nd a helping hand. I
had been told the "Bees would
not do well in Nebra ka , " that
HThere was not eliough for them
to work on , " etc.
However , I am quite a hand to
want to try for myself-buH-
headc ( I have been told b ) ' the
individual most free to give home
thrusts I
I can say that the prospects ,
for the ee } ( ecper in Nebraska
have steadily improved since I
made my first attempt , and I have
also learned much in the costly
schC'ot of experience.
I am an advocate of farm bee
keeping. Not that I think the
farmer should vie with the specialist -
ialist in the field of agriculture
and burden himself with more !
than he can manage.
Two or three colonies make but
little work and should afford honey -
ey for his table the year rounel.
Ordinarily this goes to waste in
h is fields for lac1 < of bees to gather -
ther it.
Why should this be so ? A recent -
cent writer in the li'armer's Voice
sars that the farmer used to be
a bee leeper. If that be so , it
seems a strange' falling away' '
from a comme.n lable practice , for
certdnly bee } { eeping was never
easier than it is today.
I have noticed the prevalent
idea that I'Bees would not do
well in Nebraska. " 'fhen there
is the natural dread.of ! 'ttings.
It is said , , vith what truth I
know not , that the poison of the
bee's stings is a specific for rheu
matism. 'l'hat ought to be some
comfort under aftliction.
Besides that , the Italian bee is
very gentle and not at all like
the irrascible little black rascals
'of the time of our grandfathers.
Then too , there are many who
do not realize the great value of
honey as a food and as a medi-
cine. They don't have the honey
habit.
We are told on ail hands ,
"Uneeh biscuit" and invited to
"Try.a-bite" food and cautioned
what to smoke ut there have
not becn many to urge the value
of honey. If people in general
ra te it at its true worth the present -
ent supply would not e enough
to go around.
It would r place some of the
pat nt medicines of more than
doubtful virtue for the treatment
of coughs , colds , 10. grippe etc.
'l'he medical profession are generally -
erally agreed that honey is the
mo' wholesome , sweet , as it is
ills ) , the'most ancient , and can
he freelv eaten in certain jis-
cased c nditions of the body
when sugar is for idden aR an
arlicle of diet. It iR usually
much relished hy children and is
suita le also as a food in extreme
old age.
To the honey lover it is not
generally consideration of the a.
bove facts but simply its delic.
iousness and its comparative rarity -
ity that leads him to indulge.
It is much cheaper than it use ( ]
to be and while bee keepers may
lament that the day of higl ]
prices is passing , if they tl.inli
at 0.11 of "the other fellow" they
will not regret the fact that they
can not got 25 cents a pound fOI
their product.
"How to Manage Bees , " ma )
be partly learned from the main
excellel1t instruction books ant
papers published in regard to be (
keeping ; but , after all , there i
so much dilTerence in locality , :
have had to learn many thing :
for myself.
I have decided that at least enl
cause for failure in Nebraska i
lhh , :
Our best nat'ural honey How i
in lhe fall , bringing with it lat. .
swarming , which , if unchecked
il ) ' also excessive. 'l'hen there i
o ten failure in such cases t ,
gather sufficient stores for wit1
t , f , as was the cas last fal ]
there is a cessation of bone
gathering earlier tban usuaj
followed by an open winter when
the ees fly freefy , consumiug I
their stores before there is an-
thil1g more for them to gather ,
wbell they starve. 1'he strongest
cJlonies that are left are often
allowed b ) the careless bee keep.
er to hunt the icy' water in the
stock tanks , c1ulling to death ,
when the bee k eper will s y he
had a case of "Sprin , ! d wind-
liug' . "
' 1'0 put it in a nut-sbell : If
the colonies winter through with
abuudance of food and ar'c supplied -
plied with artificial pollen and
water close by they arC' likely to
be in good condition when fruit
lo01l1 comes , and if there is nectar -
tar to gather they will repay
whatever care has been given
them.
Broken Bowite. in La. Angle. .
A letter received the first of
