Dadant THE EDITOR'S VIEWPOINT Cypress for Hive Stands There is an increasing demand among the beekeepers for something more durable for hive bottoms and hive stands. Soft woods decay rapidly in contact with the soil, and because of its greater durability cypress is much better for such purposes. In a letter to this office.
