Just after harvesting the small

farm operations. Then Is the time for
the farmer to prepare for the next
year.
Disking up the stuhhle ns soon ns
possible after harvesting has been
found by experiment and common ex­

cockleburrs or other weeds left at the
last will grow up and. by going to seed,
scatter over the whole field. This will
make matters next year Just as bad
as before. Every effort to get out the
late woods from the corn ought to be
made, even If It Is necessary to use the
hoe on the worst spots In the Gold.
Swarm control Is nn Important fac­
tor In beekeeping, asserts Dr. J. II.
Merrill, assistant professor of ento­
mology In the Kansas State Agricul­
tural college.
"The standard of successful bee­
keeping was formerly set by the num­
ber o f swarms thnt issued during the
year,’* said Doctor Morrill. “ Now,
however, it Is known thnt one colony
will produce more honey thnn will a
colony which by swarming has been
separated Into two, or possibly more.
Thus, while swarming may be the
natural way for Increasing the num­
ber o f bees, It Is not desired by the
beekeeper who Is keeping bees to pro­
duce honey.
"Th e exact cause for swarming Is
not kn7wn, nlthough there are several
conditions which nre known to stimu­
late It. I f these conditions are reme­
died, a large proportion o f swarming
will be controlled."
