We see the nectar gathered from the flowers, the method of carrying it to the hives, storing it in the numberless cells of the comb, sealing the cells, and finally how the finished product is removed from the comb and strained into jars ready for the table. We see the methods of the Queen Bee in laying and hatching the eggs, about three thousand per day. In every colony or hive there are two classes of bees, besides the "queen," "workers" and "drones." The "workers" are just what is implied by the name. They gather the honey and pollen from the flowers and blossoms, carry it to the hive, fill the cells, feed the "queen" and young bees and, in short, provide a living for the "family." The "drones" are entirely useless. When food is getting scarce the "workers" turn on these useless members and sting them to death and drag them out of the hive.
