DOES THE BET TS.TURE GRATES ? (From tte Scientific American.] It Las lony been believed, and is row iliiiost unhersally accepted as a fact, Lhat the bee c'octroys grapes as id other fruits- I have watched the 111 tie workirs for. years, and have been loth to believe it. I observed long ago that fhc-y- never attacked sound grapes. Rut .wliei>, defeaiive,-.or split as the result of a>rainy spell; Uiey would then suck out the jaiees.- Doing unable to ,/vii t ^ vr till/ iiui vi the insect in any .ctbtr-wrajv, I devised for that purpose the following- ex poriniciit, which any one may try for j limieAlf. I placed at the mouth of the hives ! bunches of several varieties of thin- i skinned grapes, and for da^s. although the bees were constantly crawling over ; j them, not a berry was injured. I then ! punctured half of the berries on each " bunch, and instantly the bees went to 1 work on all so punctured, in a short i time sucking them dry. The lemainder of the berries were untouched, and remained: so until p'inctured by inc. when they in turn v. ere attacked : I as promptly as the former. This experiment demonstrafesthat it- j j is necessary tor the grape to have been j previously injured so as io auuw u.\u! dation of juice; otherwise the bee will | j nor molest it. 1 have not observed so j carefully in tlie case of other fruits, j bu4 it i.s isiy belief that this is the, modus operandi in a!! ch?Cs. liot, sjjlitiinjr of tin* grape, injury by insects and birds (in this latitude a ! j small yellowish bird ii cjnspi<*uou?) j 1 are the causes that render grapes liable i ; to attack by bees. And when we re- j ; fleet that the berries thus injured [ ' would decay, it will be seen that, the j | bee actually saves to us what would I otherwise be iost. by storing- it up as j honey. I have been hurried into this com-1 j muuication by observing that in some j quarters legislative action is about to j be taken against an insect which I be- j 1 lreve closer observation will demonstrate to be not only innocent of harm, but productive of <rood.
