Alberta Beekeeping Prospects Reach Peak Highway Produce
Southern Alberta irrigated districts with croplands of falsa and sweet clover are seen as a future beekeeping paradise. Latest figures show Alberta honey output rising from under 10,090 pounds to over 100,000 pounds this year on the CPR irrigation project at Lethbridge, with plans to ship trainloads of honey to markets within five years. C. George Riedel, an apiary operator in the Contrate district, expects 1,400 colonies by 1926 and over 150 tons of honey, while his current season yields about 50 tons. A wholesale firm with West-wide branches handles the output. Each colony averages about 209 pounds per season, with exceptional records at the Lethbridge Experimental Farm and across Canada.
