. Gleanings in bee culture . the proventric-ulus of the honey-bee, brought to light avery interesting fact about the development of the honey-sac and the in the full-grown insect these organsoccupy their place in the abdomen, their de-velopment ensued almost entirely in thethorax. In the earlier stages of the pupa,both these organs form but slight enlarge-ments of the alimentary tube. Just beforethe division between thorax and abdomenbecomes complete, the honey-sac recedesinto the fore part of the abdomen. Thedrawings in Figs. 5 to 8 will help to makethis development clear.

Another pupil of Prof. Zander made aspecial study of the construction and mech-anism of the apparattxs of flight. He dis-covered a wonderful apparatus that leavesthe complicated mechanism actuating thesting far behind. The sting itself received a special studyby Prof. Zander, and here, too, the compar-ative study of the analogous apparatus ofother members of the hymenoptera furnish-ed interesting and instructive matter; and.
