Bee inflation hits hive economy in Minnesota and beyond
Retired Minnesota state bee inspector Clare Watson notes rising queen bee prices from 1.50 to 4 6 and hive costs more than doubling, prompting hive brandings and bee rustlings while Watson ships 200 extra colonies south for overwintering. He rents colonies for pollination and recounts getting by on higher bee values. Carleton College grants honorary degree to Margaret Haywood at 101st commencement.
