tftE PLATTSMOUTH, NEBRASKA, SEMI-WEEKLY JOtlNHAL FAGE FOUR Thursday, July 11, 1963 'Bees Fascinating Local Hobbyist Tells Rotary Club 'You'd find It fascinating to watch them work," Raymond Harold Jr. said of bees In a talk to fellow Rotary Club members Tuesday noon at the regular club meeting. He said he has been keeping bees as a hobby several years and now has three hives. He has captured two swarms, he said. He said beekeeping Is not dangerous; that bees are gentle by nature and will not sting if a person works leisurely when handling them. A swarm can be captured simply by brushing it off the tree limb or wherever it has come to rest, into a box. Harold told about some of the lntracies of maintaining hives and of producing honey. Bees have been known to travel as far as four or five miles in search of nectar and pollen for the "home" but much greater productivity Is possible If hives are located close to plants with nectar - producing flowers, he said. He advised his fellow club members to try bee-watching for a relaxing pastime. One Rotarian, remarked that beekeeping sounded "like a honey of a business if you don't crot tiinir " Harold Edwards, vice presi dent, presided at the meeting in the absence of the president, Dr. R. F. Brendel. Clair Julian, the club's new pianist, accompanied for singing.
