Mar. 11, tify their employees to handle comb honey as carefully as they would eggs, and that the Secretary be instructed to send the railroad officials a copy of this resolution. M. F. Cram, \ H. L.

Mr. Manum thought that snow was beneficial, had walkt on the snow on top of the hives and the bees came out in good condition in the spring. Mr. Everest thought that bees should be moved to new locations to prevent disease from oid and decaying bees. Mr. Manum did not think it necessary, but all that spoke admitted it best to keep everything neat and clean about the apiary. SEVERAL QUESTIONS. QuES.—" How to clean the pollen from old combs," was then discust. Not many were troubled, but if they were they would melt them into wax. QuES.—•' What about the origin of the honey-bee in this country?" Ans.—It orignally came from Germany. (Will the editor please tell when, where, and by whom, the first honey-bees were brought to America?) (This editor is unable to answer. Will some one who knows, kindly do so.—Editor.] —"Does spring feeding pay?" Mr. Manum re- quested that it be tried at the Experiment Station, and it probably will be again the coming season. The subject of foul brood was discust, but it was not shown that there was any genuine foul brood in Vermont. It was voted to hold the next annual meeting in Burling- ton, in January, 1898, the time to be set by the Executive Committee. M. F. Cram, CONDUCTED BY T>^. V. O. ALLLLER, JUARENGO, ILL.
