The average beekeeper will make the most profit if he limits his business to 400 colonies, the number he can care for single-handed, the United States Department of Agriculture says. He may be a first-rate bee handler, but the temperament of a good beeman generally Is not the temperament for managing employees efficiently. What One Man Can Do. One man can do practically all of the work,required for 350 or 400 colonies, even during rush seasons, the department learned by studying for three years the records of beekeepirs in widely separated regions of the country. With an apiary of this size, however, he will need some additional means of income. Beekeeping is at its best, generally, as a supplement to farming. One man In New York state, who farms 100 acres and care# for 70 colonies of bees learned from experience that a 70-colony apiary Is equivalent to about 40 acres of land , ln both income and labor. One beekeeper, who spends little time in his apiary and Is an Inefficient employer of labor, had a labor cost of more than $6 per colony. He lost 53 cents a cojony one year, and $1.75 a colony the next year. But not all good beemen are poor managers. One who owns 1,800 colonies reported a yield of about 250 pounds of extracted honey from each colony and a total income of $23,387 fn 1928, or a net Income of $11.78 for each hour he worked with the bees. He hires labor and knows how to use It. Other beemen have reported returns of $2.40 to $5.50 an hour for thteir time in the apiary. Practices Studied. , The department has studied beekeeping practices in Colorado, Wyoming, Utah, Idaho, Montana, Iowa, New York, Michigan, Ohio and Minnesota. During the next few years the department will complete its nation-wide survey by studying beekeeping on the Pacific coast, on the Dakota plains, In Texas, and in the South.
