twit twig of sage brush Is like the bough of afree a tree where a swarm of bees has settled on an it if they drop off they go into the water by holding on there is nothing green to eat and they cling together and devour each other the crops in nume numerous ious lous places hava have been destroyed st blit but where they have not they look beautiful up towards the he betich they have suffered most
