McDonald may refer to some other variety of the vetch, or his location may modify the length of the tubes of the blos- soms. I think the vetch I have produces nectar, but the bees I have are unable to reach it. However, as I have recently pur- chased a long-tongued queen I am in hopes I can make a more favorable report for the vetch in a year or two. There are still a few vetch blossoms to be found, and I send you two herewith, and a spray of the leaves: also an alfalfa blossom for comparison. It has been a poor honey season here, no surplus to speak of. J. W. Steele. Merced Co., Oct. ". The Mulbeppy for Bees.
