New Grain Storage Rates Begin July 1 A new schedule of storage rates to be paid for price-support grain stored in commercial warehouses and on farms will take effect t on July 1, 1960, chairman Ivan G. Althouse of the Cass County Agricultural Stabilization and Conservation Committee announced. For grain stored commercial ly, storage rates are being re duced an average of 19 precent, from about 16'2 to 1312 cents a bushel on most grades. The rates will be the same for all areas of the country. For most grain stored on farms under reseal programs, the storage payment to farmers will be two cents a bushel lower. Following are the new reseal storage rates per bushel, with the former rate in parentheses: Corn, 14 cents (16) ; oats, 10 cents (12); barley, 14 cents (16); wheat,-14 cents (17); grain sorghums per hundredweight, 24 cents (30). Reseal storage rates will also be uniform on a national basis elminating former geographical differences. . Farm-stored commodities eli gible for reseal at this time are: 1959-crop corn, barley, wheat and grain sorghums; 1958-crop grain sorghums, wheat corn and barley; 1957-crop wheat and corn; and 1956-crop corn. In addition to the reduction in commercial storage rates, there will be a number of changes in the handling chages for loadtng-in and loading-out grain. Taking reduced storage rates and handling charges to gether, it is estimated that the government will save from S35 to $100 million during the 1960 61 storage year, Althouse said. The changes are being made in revising the uniform grain storage agreement, which will be offered to all eligible com mercial warehousemen on an individual basis. The. present agreement, in ef fect since 1956, governs storage in about 11,000 warehouses throughout the country. LOsisphu.

Spurred by a mysterious im pulse, the senior members of a bee colony and their queen break bonds with home and se curity for an impetuous journey in to the unknown. They boil from the hive in a wildly exci ted, dancing, singing cloud that spins into the sky. The migration, or swarm, takes weeks of preparation, and it is nature's way of perpetua ting a bee family through col onization, the National Geo graphic Society says. Queen Faces Rivals The swarm normally occurs when the aging queen wearies of her sole job, the laying of about 1,500 eggs a day. Through instinct, the workers feel a vague dissatisfaction. T h e queen herself may sense the imminence of young, vigorous rivals. The hive is probably be coming crowded. In preparation for the exodus, worker bees first construct im maculate wax cells for a new generation of drones. In each the old queen lays one egg that will progress from larva to pupa to an adult male bee in 24 days. One of these drones will mate with the new queen. The eggs of potential queens hatch faster, so the workers wait more than two weeks be fore building the large, peanut shaped queen cells. For safety's sake the 'hive develops several royal eggs, though only one will ever become its queen. About a week before the first young queen will emerge from her cell, the bees decide that all is well for the flight. Scouts scour the area looking for a new home. The colony- anxiously watches the weather. Good weather is essential for swarming, because the o 1 d queen has not left the hive in were among the Senior gradu ates. Marcia Meisinger was a Sun day afternoon guest of Alice Jean Jochim. Mr. and Mrs. Charles Gardner and family of Lincoln were Monday dinner guests of Mr. and Mrs. Ed Steinkamp.

Tension mounts. The bees fill their honey sacs for the Jour ney. Then, with a, roar born of some unknown signal, tens of thousands of bees spill irom the hive for the great adventure of their lives. For perhaps a quarter of an hour, the bees abandon them selves to aerial acrobatics. Fin ally they settle in a pendant cluster at a convenient spot to take stock jf the situation. Of ten, if the old queen's wings tire quickly, the insects may chose a highly unlikely place. One swarm came to rest on a speed ing motorcycle. Dame of the Scouts Now scouts zip off in ail di rections to make the final de cision about tlie hollow tree, shelter, or empty hive that will house the colonists. Returning; scouts perform inirlcate dances atop the swarm to describe their respective finds, the ap proximate distance and direc tions. The most vigorous dancer usually sways the crowd. After occupying the chosen place, the bees enter, a race a gainst time to establish and stock the new city before win ter. Builders, nurses, tempera ture regulators, brewers, cell cleaners, undertakers, guards, water carriers, and foragers get down to frantic work. The holiday is over. Meanwhile, back at the old hive, the depleted colony also begins life anew. The remain ing old bees, the larger num ber of younger workers, and the drones wajt for the young prin cesses to leave their royal crad les. Often the first one out will temperamentally lead a second swarm. But it is nature's more normal way that the first queen to emerge breaks into the other royal cells and stings her rivals to death.
