OLFAtTOfcY" SENSE OF BEES
IS VERY HIGHLY DEVELOPED
Dr.
N. E. Mclndoo Tcll of Experi
mental Work Shewlno Likes
and Dislikes.
In a pamphlet recently Issued by tlio
Smithsonian Institution, Dr. N. E. Me
lndoo of tho Bureau of Entomology
states that the sense ot smell In honey
ibees Is highly developed, and Hint it
'also serves as a scnao of taste. In
some Instances tho bcessoemed to din
.tlngulsh a marked difference In thn
'lasto between certain mlxturea w.hlch
itio scientist himself could scarcely
perceive.
Until recently but little experimental

they have likes and dislikes, and that
they can distinguish In food's differ
ences not petccptlble to the writer. Oil
of peppermint, which Is agreeable to
man, 13 distasteful to bees, whllo on
tho contrary another substance which
tho experimenter did not like seemed
to please the bees.
It was also discovered that the bees
must first eat more or less of certain
foods before thoy can distinguish be
tween them, Indicating that they have
a trim gustatory sense unless this dis
crimination Is made possible by means
of the olfactory sense.

work has been pe: formed to determine
whether Insects linvo a true sense of
lasto or gustatory sense, as It Is term
ed in science, but thu present authut
has ondoavoted to show thatlieos have
likes and dlsllUcd In icganl to foods,
and lias made a careful study of tli
.scrucluia of tlu sc:iho organs oa the
moutli-paiu ot the honey bee. In hta
ejjncrliaenU he m,cd t,omalhing like
(D.GOO been, iiuutly adults, all of whirli
were kept in their normal state.
Even iu the higher fi r:ns ol life It
la difficult to distinguish ihe sense ot
taste lrom that of .siuell, and iu his
experiments Dr. iUtludoo has dit.co
ered that in the beo thoj-e two senses
rannot be separated at all In fact,
the reuse of taste piovc3 to Ii3 merely
one phase ot the olfactory hou .a. or
sense ol smell.
Dr.'McIndoo begun by leedinc the
bees several substances from which
five classc'3 were chosen to study the
cects; rcpollant, sweet, bitter, scut
ind salty substances, the lour latter
being reprenc'.ilative of the attributes
of human taste.
The experiments show that bees like
honey he3t nl 'all foods, and that they
ure able to-diRtliiltinidi the dilfeicncc.s
lictwcon various kinds of Iio.ipv; tlio'
vestlgated the tactile sense, or th
sense of touch of the honey bee, and
believes that with the organs for that
purpose the beo is enabled to mold in
uniform thickness the wall of all its
cells. He also investigated the manner
In which bees eat liquid food3 by cap
illary attraction and by a pumping
force which thoj- possess. Solid sub
stances, which they cannot eat at
once, are dissolved by the application
of saliva. He discovered that many
solid substances, which ate not pre
viously smclled by the bees, release
odors tin ouch the physical cr chemi
cal changVs brought about A'hou they
aie dissolved b saliva.
Dr. Mclqduo and tue few other sci
entists who have fed insects foodi
lontahilii' undesirable substances
have observed that they relusc such
foods after eatiir,' more or less of
them. From this observation the
other authors have concluded that In
sects can taste, although they have
not ascertained whether they possess
sense organs anatomically adapted
for tasting, nor have they considered
the role played by the sense of smell
In these responses.
Tho author's experiences during
four years convince him that the ol
