A CAPITAL REPLY FOR EASE OF DISTINGUISHING.
IN COLDER CLIMATES, SUCH AS IN MARYLAND, I DON'T FEED 1-TO-1,
AS RECOMMENDED, BUT 2 (SUGAR)-TO-1, TO SLOW DOWN THE FREEZING
PROCESS.  ALSO I START FEEDING (BOARDMAN) 1 NOV AND AM STILL
DOING SO NOW BECAUSE COME THE START OF THE HONEYFLOW, ABOUT
1MAY, I WANT A JUMBO HIVE POPULATION. THE MORE BEES, THE MORE
SWEET STUFF, EH?
