Package bees are sold and dispatched in a wooden box with a wire screen on the front and rear sides for ventilation. The package usually contains :... live bees without brood or combs[, a] caged young mated queen [and] a can feeder with... sugar syrup for the bees to feed on while in transit and until they are hived in their new hive. Package bees are purchased to start new beehives or to strengthen weak colonies and to replace colonies [that] died in winter. Package bees should be ordered early so that the bees can arrive early in spring and take advantage of the many fruit trees and plants that bloom in the spring. 3, record 1, English, - package%20bees

Chaque année, avant la fermeture de la frontière, le Québec importait des milliers de paquets d'abeilles du sud des États-Unis. Depuis, un nombre beaucoup plus restreint nous provient exclusivement de l'Australie et de la Nouvelle-Zélande. Ces paquets servent à partir de nouvelles colonies, on les commande alors avec une reine. On les utilise parfois pour renforcer des colonies faibles, ils arrivent alors sans reine. Nous devons faire venir ces paquets pour les raisons suivantes : la production d'abeilles à partir des colonies existantes ne suffit pas aux besoins des apiculteurs; de plus, notre printemps tardif ne permet pas de produire de reines à temps pour une ponte hâtive, l'accouplement ne pouvant se faire avant la mi-mai. 3, record 1, French, - abeilles%20en%20paquet

Most chairs and sofas require an edge wire around the springs.... For applying the edge wire you will need a length of spring-type edge wire. This should be long enough to go completely around the outside edge of the springs with several inches extra for fastening the ends of the wire together. To find out the length of edge wire needed measure across the top of a row of springs from front to back. 4, record 2, English, - edge%20wire

A binder clip is a strip of spring steel bent into the shape of an isosceles triangle with loops at the apex. Tension along the base of the triangle forces the two sides closed, and the loops prevent the sharp steel edges from cutting into the paper... The two slots cut in each loop are shaped so that the wire handles can be folded down once the clip has been attached, and the spring force of the wire holds them down on the surface of the paper. 3, record 15, English, - binder%20clip
