"n. ? f -v bee-ze- e season If Earl and Gladys Thomas thought they'd been busy harvesting their fruit crop, little did they realize what a honey harvest meant. Earl's friendship with John Miller, a beepkeeper from Alpine, brought about the change in harvest activities for the energetic and enthusiastic Lehi couple. John Miller introduced Earl to the art of beekeeping. Gladys thought when they got their first swarms of bees they were just taking necessary steps to keep their orchards pollinated. That's what she thought when Earl first became interested in beekeeping. Gladys admits that now she's just as intrigued with the honey business as her busy husband. During the harvest, the Thomases scrape honey and wax from frames that have been removed from the beehives. The frames are heavy with cells full of honey - cells that thousands of bees have put there since the honey started to flow in early June. The Thomases explained that the bees gather the pollen until they get so loaded down they can hardly fly, then they go back to the hive and start building cells. The Thomases put in a foundation and the bees build cells on both sides. "Of course," Gladys explains, "none of this would happen if it wasn't for the queen bee. She's the mistress of the hive and the worker bees really take care of her. And, if she should leave (and that sometimes happens) the work See BKF.S on putfe 3 Wf fc and Gladys Thomas scrape wax caps honeycombs as they harvest annual crop of honey. Earl from 0
