Excerpt from American Bee Journal, Vol. 54: January, 1914 No beings in the world, that we know of, show a better scent than bees do. They can trace honey through the key-hole of a grocery store. We have known them to come down a tireless chimney, to a room where honey was kept, crawling in through a space in the chimney-board. And as to having and recognizing a hive odor. We have seen two swarms fight on being hived together in a dearth of honey. We have seen bees crawl over our hands, because, a few minutes before, we had handled their queen. We have seen a deserted hive robbed quietly as long as one colony was doing it, but with avery strenuous fight when other colo nies joined for a share in the spoils.
