Good Season for Honey. 



This has been a very good season for 

 this part of the country. I have taken 

 off some beautiful comb honey. I have 

 not extracted any yet, but some of my 

 colonies have three full-depth extract- 

 ing supers on. I expect to begin ex- 

 tracting about the middle of the month. 

 I sell my comb honey to the stores at 

 \2)i. cents a section. There are not 

 bees enough in this part of the State 

 to have any effect on the price of 

 honey. Hans Christbnsen. 



Skagit Co., Wash., Aug. 6. 



Crop a Complete Failupe. 



We are having a famine here among 

 the bees. The honey crop is a com- 

 plete failure. I have not taken a single 

 pound this year. I have been feeding 

 my bees for some time. If fall honey 

 fails the bees will not live throtigh the 

 winter. G. D. Hawk.

The "Bidsom" Feeder. 



I have recently made five " Boughter 

 — Improved — Danzenbaker — Super — 

 Original — Miller Feeders," vehich, I 

 think, are just the thing for top feed- 

 ing ; but as that name is too big, I 

 simply use the initial letter of each 

 word, and call it briefly the " B-i-d-s-o m 

 Feeder," thus giving proper credit to 

 each party vrhose ideas I have bor- 

 rowed. It is a combination of the 

 " original Miller feeder " idea, with the 

 Danzenbaker super principle of support- 

 ing it over the brood-nest. The regular 

 Danzenbaker super, without frames or 

 fences, is the outer wall of the feeder, 

 and is separate and distinct from the 

 feeder itself. The "original Miller 

 feeder " is made to fit snugly into the 

 super, hanging by Danzenbaker rivets 

 on the regulation supporting cleats of 

 the super ; allowing space between the 

 inside of the super and the outside of 

 the feeder for the bees to get to the 

 feed. 



By using the regular "end-wedges " 

 of the super, the entire arrangement
