. American bee journal. Bee culture; Bees. AuKiist, 1915. 2S1 American Hee Journal week after the first swarm lias issued, go to the hive every evening when the bees have stopped Hying, put your ear to the hive and listen. When the tirst virgin has emerged from her cell, you will hear her piping, a shrill high-pitched voice, saying pe-eeeep. pe-eeep. several times, each time shorter than the previous time. Then the virgins yet in their cells will reply. " Quahk. auahk, iiuahk." in a coarser and more hurried tone. , ext morning kill aH the cells in the hive, paying no attention to the queen at liberty. There's a still easier way. a way of getting the bees themselves to do the killing for you. When you hive the first swarm, set it close beside the old hive, facing the same way. or. perhaps better still, set the swarm on the old stand with the old hive close beside it. A week later move the old hive to a new stand lo feet or more away. The bees will do the rest. 1. A uueen may come out more than once on her wedding flight, and she may come out with a swarm; at any other time there's no danger of catching her in a trap. 4. Like enough they may supersede the queen. At any rate, if you can keep them from swarming year after year you needn't trouble about a queen. But it won't work to merely keep killing queen-cells. They'll balk you every time. Don t be afraid to send all the questions you like directly to me. Buying Bees—Location, Etc. 1. What will a swarm of bees cost in Penn- sylvania without a hive ? 2. Where would you keep the bees, under a tree or in the sun ? (. What kind of bees would you get ? 4. Would you get the bees in Pennsylvania? Pennsylvania. Answers—I. The price of a swarm of bees varies greatly according to circum- stances and places. There are places where you might not be able to buy a swarm for $10. In other places you might get plenty of swarms at a dollar apiece. What they can be bought for in your locality you can find out by inquiry
