May Increase Alfalfa Seed Out-put By Using Wild Bees For Pollinators
Wild bees may be used to increase the Kansas alfalfa seed output eight-fold. Dr. Charles Michener, chairman of the entomology department, is directing a study of wild bees and their potentials as pollinators of crops.
Of all the insects that effect cross pollinization of many fruits, berries, vegetables, and legumes, wild bees are the most important, Dr. Michener said. Honey bees or "tame bees" have demonstrated numerous limitations as crop pollinators in recent tests.
Honey bees fail to pollinate legumes as rapidly and effectively as do wild bees. Wild bees do not colonize, but nest singly in small holes in the ground.
Dr. Michener said he hoped to learn the conditions that favor growth and reproduction of the various types of wild bees. It may be determined whether introduction of desirable wild bees as pollinators from other parts of the world is possible.
A grant of $2,000 from the Industrial Fellowship fund of the University, which is a special legislative appropriation, will support the initial phases of the investigation.
Pointing to the possible economic value of the study, Dr. Michener compared yields of 150 pounds of alfalfa seed an acre in Kansas to yields of 1,200 pounds in Manitoba Canada. The high yields in certain areas of Manotiba appear to result from the large population of wild bees. By proper encouragement of wild bee population Dr. Michener predicted Kansas' four million dollars alfalfa seed crop could be greatly increased.
Farmer Indicts Beavers For Destroying Bridge
Powell, Neb.—(U.P.)A crew of beavers are under severe indictment here by Edgar Reynolds, farmer.
Mr. Reynolds accused the little animals of filching his corn and causing the collapse of a little Blue river bridge.
He also accused the beavers of cutting the pilings under the Powell bridge, causing it to collapse with high water. They will have aching teeth if they try it again because the wooden pilings were replaced by steel ones.
He said his cornfields, along the Little Blue near here, were too convenient for the beavers. He found they cut the stalks off near the ground and carried the ears off. In all, he said, he had lost about two acres of corn.

Rat Expedition Successful
50 Brought Back Alive
Fifty rodents were collected during the Christmas vacation by Dr. A. B. Leonard, professor of zoology, Dr. Charles Leone, assistant professor of zoology, and Robert Hankins, graduate student.
They will be used for experimental work in the zoology department. The trio went as far south as Norman, Okla., to collect "cotton rats." These rodents resemble white rats used in laboratory work. The fifty rats were collected in one field in a period of 36 hours.
