Under ordinary condi-tions it is, perhaps, best to locate the combs of bees close to one side of the hive, and put adivision-board, or follower, next to them on the other side. Gradually, as the bees needmore room, they can be given an extra frame of comb foundation. Watching a nucleus develop into a full-size colony is like watching the development ofa child. And to realize that you have a force of little workers bringing in pollen and nectaris solid comfort; but do not think for a minute that the bees work for nothing and boardthemselves.
