It is a fact that th* young bees, those which were hatched so late that they had nothing to do with bringing in lost of the store«, will usually winter through, and it is upon these bee* that the work of starting brood rear ing the next Spring will devolve. Yes, THIS IS A STUDEBAKER YEAR and it is public demand that makes it so. At their pres ent prices Studebaker Cars are the best values on the market today. We do not ask you merely to take our word for it. Just make rigid comparisons, point by point, of Studebaker Cars with other cars selling hundreds of dollars higher in price, and we will be satisfied with your judgment. GROUND FOR SOCCER RACING INTEREST Used Trucks, Cars Trailers and Tractors , 1 I ; Old beea will crawl from the clus ter,- or drop on th* bottom of the hive, and on the first warm day the i vigorous worker* of the colony will set to work to “clean house" with all the vim and bustle of the human | housewife. While they are unable, to take broom and mop to remove the accumulated debris, their meth ods are fully as effective. Each worker will sefize one or her dead •liters by wing or leg. drag th* bur den out through the entrance and, if possible, fly several rod* away from the hive before dropping her load. Others seem content to push the dead bees through the entrance and let them drop to the ground where they sometime« accumulate in such num bers aa u> lead the inexperienced bee man to believe he is losing his col onies. The bee keeper Who has carried bis colonies through • number of win ters notes with a good deal of satis faction the brisk activity of the bees in getting rid of the useless litter, but any hive which, after a spell of warm weather, does not show Indi cations of house cleaning, is at once an object of suspicion and the owner takes the first opportunity to find out why the bees are not taking ad vantage of their opportunities. Some times a rap on the side ot the hive will be rewarded by the appearance ot a few bees at the entrance, or It may bring only a sleepy buzz In pro- teat a gainst the disturbance. Lifting the hive for the purpose of forming an estimate of food conditions may convey the information that grim starvation is lurking in the hive, in which case the bees have little ambi tion to engage in labor which they know only too well will be useless and for which days, possibly weeks, of short rations have reduced strength and vitality to a point where manual labor is Impossible. In case a shortage of stores is indicated, if the owner is to save the oolony he must take advantage of the first warm day to open the hive and give the bees one or more frames of seal ed honey, or, in the absence of honey give them a supply of pure sugar syrup, (2 pints of granulated sugar to 1 pint ot water,) in a suitable feeder. It may be that because of stores of poor quality, such as honey-dew, which the bees sometimes gather in quantity late in the season, the bees • re afflicted with dysentery, or that through loss of the queen at the be ginning of winter there is apparent ly no hope of starting brood rearing. In either case the bees are more than likely to remain quietly in their clus ter, too sick or dispirited to take note of the fact that outside the sun is shining and that their more pros perous neighbors have been released from confinement, and are having a holiday. Given a supply of food ot good quality, the dysentery will prob ably disappear, but for the colony which is queenless in winter nothing can be done except to wait for the coming of settled warm weather when the remnant of the colony may be united with another hive, or, it still strong in numbers, a queen may be purchased fro ma breeder and in troduced. The colonies which have been packed at the beginning of winter, that is. the hive given suitable pro tection against both cold and wet, win usually be found In the 9prlng to be In much better condition than those which were given no protec- tton. i AI bo . it will be found that brood rearing has been started sev- oral weeks earlier in the protected hive, and in consequence when the first blossoms appear the colony will have a large number of workers ready to go to the field and bring in the new pollen so necessary to the welfare of the young brood, and It is almoet Invariably the colony which gets a strong and early start that later In the season brings In th* big crop of honey.
