The following thermometrical observations are from the journal before mentioned. The first column gives the day of the month,--the second shows the hour of the day when the thermometer was examined,--and the third is its height at those several times in the colony of Bees upon which my experiments were so successfully made. 1826. At this state of the Thermometer April Hour Ther. it is highly necessary to remove your Bees to their 1 8 38 summer stand. A great decrease -- 12 46 of wealth in the hive will appear 2 8 38 daily under this temperature; -- 12 43 and feeding should be resorted 3 8 32 to until it rise to 50: and if -- 12 37 _moderate feeding_ be continued 4 12 37 until the interior temperature 5 37 reach 55, it will materially 6 37 strengthen and invigorate your 7 37 Bees. And as the thermometer 8 8 40 continues to rise, you will find -- 12 45 your hive improve. It will soon 9 8 46 be in a good state for the spring. 10 12 58 Considerable improvements in 11 6 46 the combs, and immense gathering -- 10 58 of farina, appear to occupy 12 9 52 the Bees at this time. -- 1 64 13 12 64 The enemies of Bees are 14 64 numerous and active in this 15 64 month. As much as possible 16 64 guard against their attacks, and 17 64 be careful to defend your Bees 18 8 54 against them. At all times keep 19 12 60 their floor-boards clean; and 20 56 now withdraw the dead Bees, if 21 12 58 there should appear to be any 22 50 lying on the floor-boards or 23 52 other stands. This will save 24 60 the live Bees much labour, and 25 65 may be done very easily. 26 70 27 74 28 68 29 74 30 70
