D. Jan. 23.—7)— Cristobal, Canal Zone, Jan. 23—) Starting out with ‘a. “sideline” of (®)—The eagerness of Latin Amer- ica to do honor to Colenel Charles A. Lindbergh has brought him to a point where he'is very nervous, one colony of bees 10 years ago, Fred Marquette of Fargo, who re- cently ran up an unofficial world record for single hive coml honey production, has 320 colonies of bees Colonel Arthur Fisher, commandant| which produced 64,000 pounds of of France Field, believes. extracted and comb honey during The Lone gape “may crack undér yi f 200 di the strain,” Colonel Fisher said. pe rctpiedity ae The statement re: ing Lind- bergh’s nervous ‘was made after he one eve: outward evidence of good healt! from a week of recreation in the tropical mountains of Panama. He went there after completing some 4000 miles, of his good will trip and a continuous round of social functions in seven Central Ameri- can capitals, : Will Take More Rest : Although the Spirit of St. Louis was ready to carry him on -to South America, it was announced that Lindbergh would take several days more rest before setting out for Ca: na and Barranquilla, Colombia, Friday. The good will flyer is understood to have expressed a wish that som one double for him in the social en- gagements his flight calls for. He is willing to do flying ace cording to Colonel Fisher, is only nervcus when on the ground and not when in the air. It was on the vacation trip, the agle ington Today, Marquette is devoting all his time to the bee “farm” with himself, his wife, and six children depending on the busy little bees for their entire income. With but one exception, Mr. Marquette built uo the 320 colonies, giving each diviston a queen. The one exception, however, a colony of Caucasian bees shipped in from Alabama, not only won the unofficial world record, but exceed- ed the previous single-hive record overwhelmingly—by 151 pounds of the comb variety and 42 pounds of extracted. They produced, from April 20 to Sept. 15, a total of 593 pounds. Figured in ounces, the 15,000 bees in the hive averaged over a half an ounce of honey for each bee. The previous world rec- ord of 400 pounds of comb honey was produced by a hive owned by the late Dr. D. C. Miller of Mar- engo, Illinois. - Location Sueltered The Marquette apiary is located on a small plot of ground, about an acre in extent, in the vicinity of a sweet clover fiela. The loca- tion is sheltered by a natural wind- break of trees so that the beo hives may be protected in the spring and fall when cold winds prevail. In producing the honey in such quantities, Marquette does his own work except for a few days in August when outside labor is need- ed. His honey was officirlly grad- ed by the bee department of the North Dakota agricultural college as “Fancy Water White,” the high- est grade provided by the United States grading rule. Nearly all of his hives are oc- cupied by Italian bees and probably 90 per cent of the bees in the Uni- ted States are of the Italian tribe, Marquette believes. Besides the Italians and the Caucasians other races of bees are the Carniolians and Cyprians. The Cyprians are considered the most ill-tempered of all bee races. “The Caucasians have proved themselves,” Marquette says, “to be the gentlest and most industri- ous of all bees and they defend their hives well against robbers.” Work Longer Hours In a close watch of this record- breaking Caucasian hive, Marquette observed that they would fly out earlier in the morning than his other races; that they gathered h later in the evening, first extended one the has had since leaving Wa on December 18, that Lindbergh’s nervous condition became apparent to his companion.

He has sworn to an a¥fidavit and I expect his record to be recognized internation- ly.’ “The state as a whole,” Mr. Munro says, “has held first place for the past five years over in- dividual states in average produe- ticn of honey per hive, producing about 100 pounds more per colony than the country as a whole. “The producticn of honey in the state, too, has grown tre endously.- In 1920 there were only 708 colon- jes. Today, they number nearly 20,000 or 28 times that of 1920. Practically all of it grades ‘Fancy Water White’ and has a better flavor than honey from other sec- tions of the country.” The reason for the rapid develop- ment in beekeeping as an organ- ized industry, Mr. Munro explains, is due largely to the important part which sweet clover plays in the agriculture of the state.
