actly why comb honey should be more 

 useful than extracted honey in the 

 manufacture of high-grade candies. 

 Perhaps I may be able to enlighten 

 some of the readers of the " Old Re- 

 liable " on this subject, as I have had 

 a little experience along this line. 



The way I learned the value of comb 

 honey in making candy is as follows : 



I was making candy for my bees, 

 and as it happened I found I didn't 

 have more than half the sugar I needed. 

 So I added as much comb honey by 

 weight as I had sugar. When the 

 candy was ready to remove from the 

 fire, I put the vessel containing the 

 candy into another vessel containing 

 cold water, and stirred it with a spoon 

 until sugared— or, shall I say, candied ? 

 'Now this batch of candy was nice, 

 and resembled the queen-candy that 

 we make by using pulverized sugar 

 and extracted honey. It could be rolled 

 up in balls or any other shape one 

 would wish it to be. 



When this was used up I attempted 

 to make another lot of it, but this time 

 I used extracted honey, thinking, of 

 course, that the honey was the cause 

 of the first lot being so nice. But this
