Bees Hard at Wopk— King-Birds. 



Bees are booming^ on heartsease, and 

 soon the Spanish-needle will be ready. 

 We have had lots of rain. 



In last week's Bee Journal one of 

 the correspondents says that king-birds 

 or bee-martins do not catch bees. Tell 

 him to cut the gizzard open, and see 

 the bee-legs in there.

Quite Good Season. 



The season has been quite good, but 

 so many cold nights, not over a half a 

 dozen warm ones. There was lots of 

 honey, if the weather had been so the 

 bees could have gotten it. They never 

 got to work early, but not as late as 

 last year. Basswood was fine. I must 

 claim the honor of having something 

 that Dr. Miller does not have — a colony 

 to swarm once with a cell, and this 

 colony never swarmed last year. 



The honey market is no good — 10 

 cents wholesale. I won't sell for that, 

 as there are some that must be gotten 

 rid of first. Subscriber. 



Faribault Co., Minn., Sept. 1. 



Rolling in Yellow Honey. 



The honey crop this year is very 

 good in quantity, but not in quality. 

 The first honey we get is from chin- 

 quapin bloom, and it has a bitter flavor. 

 The flow lasted longer than usual this 

 season, but now the partridge-pea is in 

 bloom, and the bees are rolling in a 

 beautiful yellow honey of the best 

 flavor. D. H. Herlong. 



Tolen Co., Fla., Aug. 20. 



Honey from Smartweed. 



Bees were working good on the sec- 

 ond bloom of alfalfa when I left Okla- 

 homa. 



I visited a bee-keeper here and bought 

 some honey from him. I was surprised 

 at the cheap price at which he sold it, 

 but when it came on the table I under- 

 stood it. It came from smartweed and 

 was dark, with a rank flavor. 



The American Bee Journal is all 

 right, and helpful to a beginner.

Honey-Flow Fair— Prospect Good. 



The honey-flow has been fairly good 

 this season, but not nearly so good as 

 it was last. I think we have had too 

 much rain and cloudy weather during
