. American bee journal. Bee culture; Bees. 164 THE AMERICAN BEE JOURNAL. May 25,. THOMAS C. NEWMAN. Editor and Proprietor, CHICAGO, ILL., MAY 25,1881. Did Starvation Cause Dysentery ? is the cause of dysentery. Observation has led us to think that excitement and confinement would produce it, as also would unusual cold and unremitting confinement; and it may be these fac- tors are more or less each dependent on the others. always worth their cost in the family— the former for pickles, catsups, and a thousand other uses, while the latter are equally appreciated for their conven- ience in putting up jellies, etc. Jars and tumblers, like the tin pails, should be tastefully put up and labeled. For a retail market, excellence of goods grades of extracted honey, whether for retailing or manufacturing purposes. We cannot see anything about the large tin cans (5 and 10 gallons), whether round or square, to recommend them to public favor. They are very expensive, and require an outer wooden case to pro- tect the can in transportation. This ex- Dr. South wick contributes the follow- ing, as corroborative of the position he assumed in the Weekly Bee Journal of April 20, that the prevalence of dys- entery was owing to starvation : I have found another case of dysentery, which I think will puzzle your long-con- finement, bacteria and pollen men. As I understood the man, he said he took off the top boxes in the fall and put in their place, a cushion ; the bees, nearly a quart of them, got above the cushion, could not get back, and died there. He said they had the dysentery bad, daub- ing the hive, and upper side of the cush- ion very much. Now, where did they get their honey with or without the bac- teria to produce this dysentery and death ? Is not this a pretty sure case of dysentery and death produced by starv- ation, or is it a first-class case of dysen- tery caused by gorging themselves with an imaginary honey and no chance for flight?
