Correspondenee of the Hen riancisco Chronicle ,
Prior to the American occupation of
California no boos were found on the Pa.
cilia coast , and it was only after great
trouble and much expense that a small
stock , consistidg of but four "swarms , "
was brought huro by way of Paua is some
twentyfivo years ago. So highly valued
were llioy that $50 to $100 per swarth
was no uncommon price ht those early
days. Now the increase has boon so great
and the supply Ilan become eo plentiful
that from $1 to $3 per have or awarn is
the avor.tgo price , varying according to
season and condition , ' 1'hero are two
distinct varieties of boos kept in this
country-tho common black boo and thin

thin two of different degrees of purity.

As ho must ordiuatily be entirely do.
pendent upon thohoneyproducin gflowors
ndi onous to the country , location
must be made with respect to the abundance -
dance in which the wild blossoms are to
be found. The main dependence in
Southern California is put upon the wild
sago ( of which there are two varieties , the
white and the black or button sago ) , and
Uponthoohomisalbrush or gromowood ,
Tim white sago grows in clumps , covering
vast stretches of mountain and lain and
each arie sends out long and slender
shoots , whhic are covered for their antiro
longtlt clustersof , a most beautiful
and delicate little flower , which yield the
finest white honey of a most exquisite
flavor , ' 1IhOSO shoots frequently grow to
such a height as to overtop a mounted
horseman rind when in bloom present a
moat beautiful appearance. The ball sago
is of a very low growth and does not
produce an fine an article of honey as does
its sister. The chemisal is an evergreen
brush found thickly scattered throughout
California and durnig the spring aid

mases of tin white blesses which are
rich with honey and fill the air for a long
diataned with teir perfume. When a
thicket of this bruh is in full bloom it
presents a bpautiful snowy appearance ,
the clusters of blossoms being so plenti
ful as to entirely hide the deep green
foliage from view , Not alone for its
honoyproducing equalities , however , is
this greasewood valuable , In many
localities its gnarled atoms and largo roots
are the only fuel to be had , and for this
purpose It is highly prized. So resinous
s it that it burns almost equally well
when groan as when seasoned , and withal
it bursa with such a steady and equable
blaze and is coiworted into ashes at so
slow a rate as to bo much aoul ht after by
housowivea. Ono peculiarity of this
brush is that each clump , no matter of
how nsaitY atoms it any consist , tormf-
natea under the surface in an enormous
halo , and those are prized by nil expori

the ouphon ous designation of those who

Having that chosen a suitable locution
with reference totho prospective supply
of forego for his stock of bees , and a good
location l5 not very hard to find , the first
care is of course a house to live in. This
may be constructed at a cost varying from
about $200 to as much aa meaus and inclination -
clination allow one to go. For between
$300 and $500 a very good and coinforta-
ble house may be built , in every way
suitable and convenient. The lsoxt thing
is a stock of bees. Hero a wiao range

The hives should be sit on timbers or

method in California is by extracting.

but a hive of bees will not produce nearly

a long time is required in which to build
up a comb preparatory to filling it with
the liquid honey and so much time is lost ,
w imerous when the combs are all ready at
hand a snuck largoramnount of honey will
be stored. However , it is within the
writer's own expuruneo that a single hive
of boos made over 'l00 pounds of comb

an exceptional case ,
PEEI'AISAT10NS FOn HWAUMiNO ,
Having uccided on the plan to be carried -
ried out , during the winter months , every
preparation must l e made fortho coming
aoason. A number of hives must be made
corresponding at least to the number of
stands of bees which arc procured. All

but some of the most successful bee men
have found the best results to follow from
letting thin bees pursue tlmoir natural
course of swarmi when they are ready.
Now comes a busy time. Perhaps three
or four swarms will come out at once ,
and there must bo quicic work to prevent
any of thtomn from escaping. Generally a

In time hive should be put a frame or two

PROYITS OP TIlE BUH1NESS ,
As ties profits of rho business in South ,
Urn California the following figures are
given from actual'oxperience. Commencing -
ing on tha 1st of April of a good season
with sixty hives of boos its tolerably fair
condition , on the let of November the
account stood ; One hundred amid twenty
hives of bees , or exactly , double the
start ; over $700 in coin as clear profit
from sales of.honey and wax ; looney used
profusely all the season for domestic
purposes and a largo quarmtity ( several
hundred pounds ) reserved together with
a fund of good health and experience
which coulhave been pined in no other
wim . The same season a not distant
neighbor commenced the year with 140
stands of bees and secured product of
not not less than twenty-six tons of
extracted honey , which netted upwards
of $ 60O. Similar instances might be
nnultiplilid. But lest the reader should
imagine this to be royal road to wealth ,
it is not fair to suppress the drawbacks to
the successful pursuit of bee cul-
turo. In tire first place , not
more than every other year is a
good one for boos. The most experienced -
ed beokeopora have settled upon this as
tlieaimoet invariable rule and make Choir
calculations accordingly. Hitherto the
entire dependence of bookeepera has been
placed ripen the wild flowers for their
source of honey supply. But some of the
more experienced are agitating time subject -
ject of planting flowers for the express
purpose of securing an abundant supply
of bee food every aeaon and thus becoming -
ing in a measure iudepondont of the natural -
ral supply. That this cams be done succees-
full there is no question as time plan is
followed in many places in the Eat and
in Europe.
It will readily be soma thou that despite -
spite time ample eturns to be reasonably
expected from time careful and ainslak
ing culture of bees it would be well to
domnbino fruit raising or farming on a
small scale with the apiary , and in this
way no more , leasamt health-giving , and

Bear Stories.
PorUaod Ortgonlan ,
In early times on limo Pacific elope ad.
veuhtres with time grizzly bear wore very
common , amid it was always a favorite
theme around acam pfmre , Nu doubt many
of these stories were lies from 1)rgtnntn g
to end , But many true ones wore never
petmacd. There were nmty poor fellows
who carried unmistakable marks of hay -
big hind a dreadful mmcouutor with a grfz-
zly bear. Those stories naturally created
a desire , especially among lhoseo
who love time oxaltement of tine chase , to
have a skirmish wills a grizzly. But the
lirst sight of one of these monsters usually -
ally produces a kind of pnrnlysfs , a cool.
hug otC of time ardor engendered around
a camp-fire , and the tmrat desire export.

action to the desire , a place of safety it
generally sought in a lorry.
. Grizzly bears are itot yet ranked among
an extinct race of aninnala , for they are
frequently found in limo Selkirk menu.

1000 to 2000 pounds , and lmavang all the
native ferocity of those formerly found in

family found- the cinmmnon , brown and
black bear. Their tracks are frequently

of time rivers amid creeks where they go to
catch salmon , The Indians say that they
have killed tlircegrizzly boars thus seasms

black boar , the smallest of the family ,
makes sometimes time largest track. Ho
is very loose-jointed , his paws spread out ,
and ho leaves an imnprossion on the
sand and mud very largo for time size of
his body. The niniblemoss of his joints
cormita lien to handle his legs , particit
Iarl his fore legs , with a great deal of
dexteritY. Ho can climb tree faster
than a man. Not so with a grizzly. He
stands more erect on hits legs. Ho is built
more for strength than nimblenesa , and
therefore is not in the habit of climbing
small trees. Thie fact lms saved many
men from being torn to pieces , and is a
onsolation to the pursued.
Bear stories are loss frequent in camp
than formerly , but still we have , now and
then , an advouturo with these mountain
monsters. One of our party , Capt. P. ,
once went out prospecting for a quartz
lode. With pick in hand lie comenced
climbing the mountain , closely scanning
ovary rockslmowingindicationsof amoral.
At last lie came to a largo fallen cedar
lying across his course. Fastening his
pick on top of the log , ho hoisted himself -
self u so e could look over it. Just ,
theft n large grizzly raised himself up.
They met face to face , each staring right
into the other's eyes , with nothing but
the cedar log between them. The onp
lain says the bear showed him his tooth.
He thinks there was a full sot and in excellent -
collent condition. Ho does not know
how long this paitomimo lasted , but he
remembers letting all hold go from that
log and sliding down and making for a
tree near by , which ho went "up in a
jiffy. " Just as ho was leaving the log , he
says , ho saw a big paw reach over on his
side of it , and give a terrible scratch ,
lie felt thankful that lie was tint there to
get the scratch , and it was a "bare
scratch" that ho was nut there. Up that
tree the captains felt safe for the time being -
ing , and could look down and see Mr.
Grizzly , who was standing on time opposite
side , with iris paws resting leisurely on
the log , looking straight up that tree ,
evidently studying the situation , for an
offensive as well as defensive operation.
Grizzly soon got down and wont off a
short distance , then turning around took
another glance at the man up time tree ,
thou went into the brush , and was soon
out of sight. After some delay the captain -
tain ventured down from time tree , and ,
finding a smooth , narrowgulchrdere lie
sat dawn , gave a wriggle or two , and soon
found himself on the bank of time Colum
bin river going clown at 2.15 speed , Ho
came into camp alone and without his
lint , 'and related his adventure. The cap ,
Lain thinks that grizzly wont after rein-
forcoments.
Now , this interview between the captain -
tain aid time grizzly is the captain's side
of the story. Tlmo other side ] us not
been heard from , As both sides of a
story ouglmt to bo heard , time writer would
suggest that it is quite reasonable to
aupposethat the cause pf the grizzly's
leaving the field first was that he had become -
como tired of the monotony and disgusted -
gusted wills the noncombativeneas of his
intruder , aunt dust ho went in search of
more agreeable and exciting amusement ,
but as it stands the captain claims time
victory , because ho loft time field last , ' It
was a noticeable fact that time captain
preferred standing to sitting while par.
taking of his camp moms for several
days. The day of this adventure eoim1 (
Inndiaua passed and they were informed
of it. Titoy pursued grizzly witin their
dogs , and on the following day a largo
grimly was killed in that vicinity. Not-
wikhstanding the ovidouco being ormolu ,
aivo that the identical animal has been
killed , time captain timinkn that some of
hie kindred usightstill be living , and that
he has no desire porsonnlly to dispute a
grizzly's claims to a quartz ledgo.
