Bees May Starve Unless Cared For Dead bees don't store honey. So, if you want, a honey crop this year, Mr. Farmer, you'd better be sure your bees don't die of starvation. This is pointed out by W. A, Step- hen, beekeeping specialist for ,, the State College Extension Service,' who that make the honey crop, "From now, on. until we get that crop we must guard against starva-. tion" asse "ts the specialist.? . Stephen lays inild weather has caused brooa -rearing to start much earlier this ear than usual. For the beekeeper this means many , more young bees for the early honey flow.i but it also means heavy consumption of the food stores that were intend, ed to winter the colonies. The beekeeper must watch to see that these stores don't run too low. There should never be less than. 15 to 20 pounds of honey in. the hive at any one time, : If the' stores get lower than this, Stephen suggests, the bees should be fed sugar and syrup made .up of two parts to one part of boiling water. "Brood rearing requires a lot of food," says the specialist. "It would be quite possible for the bees to starve before-the beekeeper-became aware of a shortage of food.'.' W. S. C S.
