Cowan, read it intelli- gently, and the "scientific processes" will be reduced to simplicity itself. This advice could well be extended to many " keepers-of-bees, '' who are a curse, rather than a blessing, to the craft. E. J. L. NOTES FBOM GBETNA GREEN. [9502] When last I wrote the British Bee Journal my bees were located among the heather hills of Ross-shire; now they forage over the green fields of far-famed Gretna—the scene of many a romantic story. The present-day Gretna, however, is sternly practical, and in the calm of the evening the beehives' hum is drowned by the deeper hum of the big dynamos that supply electricity to the surrounding munition factories. But I digress. The 300-mile journey from Ross-shire to the Solway shore proved disastrous to the bees. From various causes they dwindled down until a dozen stocks were reduced by vAiis sprang to a single colony of Italians. The present season, however, has been so favourable that I now find myself the owner of five colonies, and a large surplus of comb honey as well. I have already removed three full supers, leaving other five, partly sealed, still on.

This evening they worked on until after eight. The nearest heather hills to us are in Cumberland, and beyond the reach of our bees, so their energies are confined to the Solway Moss moors.
