Value of Bees
To Crops Told
By Professor.
- Growing of fruits, legumes and
many vegetable crops In the Wil
lamette valley is greatly depend
ent on bees for pollination, Prof.
Herman A. Scullem, Oregon State
college entomologist said here
Wednesday.
Speaking at the noon luncheon
meeting of the Salem Rotary club.
Prof. Scullem estimated that at
least $100,000,000 worth of crops
in Oregon are dependent on the
lowly honey bee. . ,
Bee culture increased greatly
during the war when sugar was
scarce but . has declined steadily
since, then, said Scullem. He esti
mates the 50,000 bee colonies in
this state produce yearly 2,000,000
pounds of honey valued at about
$200,000 plus about $12,000 worth
of beewax. j !
Scullem estimated ! that about
60,000 carloads of fruit in the Pa
cific northwest, are produced year
ly through efforts of the busy in
sects. Such items as clover, cucum
bers, melons and even holly de
pend on both honey and wild bees
for pollination. , ,
Agriculturists are realizing more
than ever before the need of bro
ducing bees,-said Scullem. Some
even import bee colonies for the
purpose of insuring proper pollin
ation of; their crops, v I tic.:.'-
Modern research into the private
lives of the little stingers, he said,
are producing bees which are more
disease - resistant, are of a more
gentle disposition and have longer
tongues to get more nectar.
