LUMBERTON — Honey bees are not only important to Robeson and surrounding counties, but they are important throughout America and, in fact, throughout the world. They have been found in all parts of the world except the extreme Polar Regions. Honeybees are one of the most fascinating insects in the world. They have a society of their own, and in many respects each colony is like a small city. It has regular streets and alleys for the passage of its inmates and those streets are kept clean. In some respect it is like the human kind of city, but in another way, it is organized on a different scheme that has for its goal the survival of the fittest.
