It is extremely difficult to refer to articles in magazines that we don't all subscribe to. This is not a critism or a slight on any magazine, more an observation on the volume of magazines available worldwide for beekeepers. Under the circumstances I would suggest a small precis of the article posted on the Net would be far more valuable. **************************************************** * David Eyre 9 Progress Drive, Unit 2, * * The Beeworks, Orillia, Ontario, L3V 6H1.* * [log in to unmask] 705-326-7171 * * http://www.muskoka.net/~beeworks * ****************************************************
