ALVEI (late stage). the mouth in feeding the larvte, and then turning foragers, leave a germ or germs in the nectary of a flower, which, visited by another bee, becomes the means of infection to it; the malady is thus carried by adult bees into other and perhaps somewhat distant apiaries. Balancing all the probabilities, it would appear that most generally the adult bee takes the disease, and then carries it directly or indirectly to the ; THE CHESHIRE CURE. As to the method of cure, Mr. Cheshire is entirely opposed to the use of salicylic acid and of borax. He considers the spraying does more harm than good ; that any beneficial results from the acid can only be obtained by its use mixed with food \ that even in that way it requires to Ije used with great discri- mination as to the dose, because salicylic acid is likely to act as a cumulative poison, and that borax, itself a drug nauseous.
