This. plan, however, causes a certain amount of loafing until the new queen starts laying. This loafing can be much reduced by introducing a ripe queen cell at the time the queen is removed, and if this is done early enough before any preparations for swarming have been started, the bees are unlikely to build further queen cells.

Like my other boys whose parents an in moderate circumstances he warn- ed money after school hours de- livering newspapers and in vari- ous other odd jobs. Leaving school, he says, he got a real job at six dollars a week and later came West and worked in Winnipeg hr a year. He had always felt a desire to become a farmer, however, and it is not surprising that the call of the Canadian Government for settlers for free homesteads at once appealed to him. He came to Alberta in 1903 and, We are continually hearing about the tam boy who goes to the city, but we hear little about the city boy who goes to the farm. Yet, just as many farm boys have become suc- cessful business men in our cities. so there are undoubtedly mm city 'boys who have become moo-elm ‘tarmers.

He spent the winters ct 1912 and 1918 in Iowa as part at his agricultural education. Here he visited me of the best farms in the State, asked Iota of questions, saw 1 good deal and came away with as much knowledge as he could gather. He considers these two winters spent in Ion among the best investments he ever made. He learned much about horses, cattle and hogs, and also how good farmers select the ears of com. how in this way they increase the yield, produc- ing ears true to type and uniform in size. He figured that it com could; be so much improved by selection‘ the same thing could be done with located on his homestead in Csyley, In the southern part of the province, the some you.
