Please mention the Bee Journal. worms getting in their honey after it was taken from the hives. When I take honey from the hives, for several years, I have kept it in a small room. I get a number of stalks of green tansy, and spread it on the floor, then put the cases of honey on the tansy. I have not found any worms or ants on my honey for a number of years. This may be of some use to young bee- keepers. All the way that I can tell when there is a laying worker in a hive is by the number of eggs in a cell. When I fnnd that, I find no queen. My hives are all numbered. For instance, there is a laying worker in No. 1, and Nos. Ill or 20 are good, strong colonies; I take No. 1 and set it where No. 10 stood, in the middle of the day when the bees are flying well, and change places of the hives. When the bees from No. 10 come in from the flelds they go into No. 1. They kill the laying worker. I have gotten rid of 5 lay- ing workers in this way in about two hours. This may be of some benefit to some new bee-keepers. Wm. C. Wolcott. Winnebago Co., Wis. Call Second Wintering; Experience. I am very much interested in the Ameri- can Bee Journal. I can hardly wait for Friday morning to come, as that is the time for it. This is my second wintering of bees. I now have five colonies; I had three colonies in the spring, transferred all, had two swarms, and got about 100 pounds of comb honey. Norman O. Jakvis. Madison Co., N. Y. Bees Did 'Well. Bees did well here in swarming as well as in honey-gathering. They nearly doubled by natural swarming. Some of the swarms produced as high as 50 pounds of honey. Of fall honey we got none, as the dry weat
