Editor American Bee-Keeper: In response to your call in Novem- ber issue for information concerning Carniolan-Italian crosses, will say: I have in one of my apiaries side by side five colonies in 10-frame hives, repre- sentatives of their respective strains, each having characteristics of their own, and I could not say which I pre- fer. First in the row is the Buckeye three- banded long tongue, every bee alike. Next, imported Carniolan, just ended her third season; next the Muth Strain Gol«[en Italian; then two Carniolan- Italians. It was exceedingly interesting to closely study the nature of each during the last three seasons. Early this spring the first three mentioned started ofif with the Carniolan, the strongest, the three-banders second, and goldens third. For a time Heither seemed to prosper, owing to the very late spring. Then all at once the Carniolans began to increase rapidly, just seemed to boom. It was not long until I gave the other two each a frame of brood and bees from them, to start them ago- ing, because it was getting late. One could see the improvement in the two, very quickly. The latter part of May I noticed queen cells in my Carniolan colony, and knowing their willingness to swarm, I quickly changed their minds by making two nuclei, when it was time for mating, placed entrance guards in front of all hives
