Mr. Van Dyke gives as the reason for such fatalities, smothering. Bees can stand quite a lot of cold says Mr. Van Dyke, but sometimes the cold Is too much for them and the bodies of the little workers fall In front of the opening of their hives in such numbers that the others. can not keep the opening clear, and the result is that others in the hive do not Ret the proper amount of air.

Another contributing factor to a like result is that snow may closa up the opening. In talking about his hottey-mak- ing friends Mr. Van Dyke Wntton- ed the fact the size of an ordinary swarm of bees was about the equivalent of a gallon pail, but mentioned that one swarm he ran onto last summer was almost the equal of a half bushel measure. He docs not like them so large as it nearly always means trial a double size hive must be used to house them.
