Postman Delivered Swarm of Bees Bee swarms: in Britain, as with jellyfish, have been the biggest for many years, say naturalists. Some swarms have numbered 40,000 to 50,000 bees. Catchers of bee--swarms say they rarely remember a. busier summer. Swarms have held up traffic, made houses uninhabit- able, and have even stopped a cricket match, 'causing pldyers and spectators to rush to shelter. Quite recently a swarm of bees descended on the hood of a car at Filey, Yorks. The owner, with his surprised family sitting be- hind him, drove at sixty miles an hour to dislodge his un- wanted passengers. But twelve miles on, at Brid- ington, they were still on the car hood. He pulled up in the main street and traffic was held up while.a bee-keeper removed the swarm. It took him nearly an hour to locate the queen-bee under the front axle. A swarm of bees once invaded the - bedroom of a honeymoon couple and could not be re- moved until two hours later be- cause the nearest bee-keeper lived many miles away. Before the war a West of England town found that bees were swarming so freely there "that "it had to. appoint a full time official to look after them-- "the only man in the country with such.an appointment. : He had to deal with swarms which had stapped. clocks, street cars and railway signals. . In a Sussex village a man saw a swarm of bees enter a pillar- box in front of his house. As he chanced to be a bee-keeper, he sent for the village postman to unlock the box, intending to claim the swarm under an ancient bee law dating back . centuries. But the postman argued that "everything found in the pillar: box belonged to the Postmaster- Géneral. It was. only after the village constable had been called that the postman reluctantly agreed to "deliver" the bees to the bee-keeper, ' The other day at Bridlington seven children were - chased by a swarm of angry bees for more than a mile, x --should be quite ONICLES "Ginger amy This is the weather I like . warm days and cool rights, but not 80 cool that we need to light - the furnace. At present the kit- chen range keeps the house quite' comfortable for the two of us. Good old kitchen stove! People come in and exclaim -- "Oh, how nice to have a fire in the kitchen -- and a wood 'fire at that" Sure it's nice but how many people have sacrificed the old - kitchen stove for the neat, cold comfort of an electric range? Some friends said to us the other day -- "Well, when we get a place of our own that's one thing we intend to have . .. a kitchen stove!" I wonder. A kitchen stove doesn't arrive with a win- ter's supply of fuel. Partner has been sawing and chopping wood for weeks and had quite a. pile stacked up. The way that pile has decreased is amazing. First thing we know we shall have tor start on coal. | } So far we have escaped a killing night frost -- for: which I am very thankful as there is still work to do in the garden. And do you know what? We are still eating green beans and even a few strawberries. The beans are more luck than good man- agement, Early in the season we were too generous with the bug- - death and almost burnt the beans. Later they came to life, grew like weeds and so now, when most people have forgotten what they taste like, we are enjoying a late crop. And the strawber- ries? They are the ever-bearing variety from a few plants brought me by a reader of this, column last spring. Knowing 1 would not be here to look after them I handed them over to_Joy to plant in her garden. They have done remarkably well and every time for the last few weeks that Bob and Joy have come up: they have brought us a few ber- ries. Not many, as I think there are only four roots. But of course they put out runners, which Joy transplanted, so next year there a number ol plants. The same reader brought! me some deep yellow wallflowers _ -- just too convince me that wall- flowers will grow in Ontario. These grew all right -- and the plants are blooming "yet. But here's the $64 question. One day we had Old Country friends vis: iting here and with much pride I said "See my English wall flowers?" : "These yellow ones? Thev're not English wallflowers..

The sun, so variety is known as the Siberian Wallflower," Well, English or Siberian, they are very nice, - Actually 1 saw some just like mine over in Eng- lang but I also saw the kind that I had had in mind -- sweet scented, rich brownish-red® in colour, and with petals like velve.t. y 1 Isn't this a grand time of year? Leaves burnished: with the air cool and bracing. Don't you just wish it would last for bright and warm, and then sink- ing to rest, it leaves behind a lovely glow which promises an. other good day on the morrow However busy we are we should take time "to stand and stare," Of course, 'if you are "working outside you can't miss it anyway. Last Friday I spent nearly the whole day lifting' geranium roots and cuttings. Some of them were slipped and well-root- ed in August. Others were quite new. The parent plants had' grown so much the last few weeks I thought I would take a chance and: plant a few more slips. It seemed a shame to waste them. Isn't it a problem - to know what to do with plants in full bloom? You _hate to lift them too soon -- at the end of the season they are blooming at their best.

Just imagine if, instead, we got the jitters over the Stock market because of 'President FEisen- hower's unfortunate illness: We pride ourselves about the North American continent being demo- cratic -- and yet, although prob- ably not personally concerned, the 1llness of one man almost. creates a panic. Even if we live on a back concession we can't be complacent about it. We may not own stocks or bonds but eventually what affects Big Busi- ness affects the farmer also. Those .of us who struggled through the depression know that only too 'well. However 1 ex- pect the President will recover -- we hope so -- and t re- turn to normal -- until such time as something else crops up to create a*monkey-wre In the meantime our interests should " be centred on the Federal-Pro- vincial -Conference at Ottawa.
