Banner Honey Yield Means Plenty oa ~~ Work for State Bees, Figures Show

By JOE COLLIER

There are 3333 bees to the pound according to the U. S. Government which several years ago thought there were more than 5000 to the pound but that was a different administration. That makes one bee weigh 48 10thousandths of an ounce when he’s | hungry and not much more when | he’s full. Keep all that in mind, together | with the fact that the Govermment | says that one bee flies once and a half times around the world at the equator to gather enough nectar to make one pound of cured honey, and that gured honey weighs only

to James E. Starkey’s prediction that there will be a banner honey production in Indiana this year. Mr. Starkey is the chief State bee inspecter. Mr. Starkey estimates that the production this year. in .the State will be from six to eight million pounds. - In. 1930, for. instance, the production was only 1,800,000 pounds. Through a series of problems that are more complicated to explain than for someone else to do, any competent mathematical kibitzer can discover that one bee would have to fly 1,312,500,000,000 miles to gather that seven million pounds of honey. But, Mr. Starkey said, to produce that fhuch honey for commerce, bees actually manufacture twice

that much and eat half of it, so that would make the bee fly 2,625,000,000,000 miles. This year, Mr. Starkey says, .the bees have been unusually busy because there is so much nectar and they work so hard they live only -about three weeks. They fray they wings in frantic flight to gather honey, and die. Bees never. care for ‘their fallen brethren.

When a bee returns to the hive | he gives his load of:honey to a sort

| of house bee who stays in the hive

and acts as a bus boy. This bus boy is supposed to store the nectar and as he makes his way to the store bins he passes the queen bee. He and all others bearing the riches of clover pause a moment and give the queen bee tribute—a touch of the honey. In retutn for this the queen bee bears the colony many; many bee children, who rapidly grow up, take to the field, beat their wings out working and then in turn die. The queen -bee crosses the colony up in seasons of plenty, however, by bearing a large number of drones > glo males, who don‘t work a c
