Drawn Combs Used With Foundation Among Wisconsin beekeepers there is a practice which is more or less doubtful as to success. When the bees are run onto full sheets of foundation, one frame at the side of the hive is left put and an old drawn comb is put in tts place. The idea is that the tees store the hortey they have, brought with-them in this comb and that by removirig it the next or following day the infected honey will all be removed. The very fact that the bees store honey in this comb makes the practice dangerous.
