Good Yields of Honey— Foul Brood. 



I liave beeu in the bee-busiuess about lU 

 J ears, euuimeneiiij,' with one colony. I aim to 

 keeji lietween 50 anil (iO colonies all the time 

 now. In 1899 I secured 6,000 pounds of ex- 

 tracted honey, and last season I secured 4,000 

 pounds. I sell it all at Boulder and the min- 

 injj: towns in this vicinity, getting from S to 10 

 cents per jjound for it. I put it in two-pound 

 Vinson jars, and also in tin cans, and have a 

 niLdy .s:ile for it. Our honey is mostly gath- 

 cri'il fnim alfalfa bloom. 



Fdul brood got into my apiary last season, 

 and as I had never had any experience with 

 the disease, I lost the use of a good many col- 

 onies by transferring them too late, but I 

 saved the most of the bees, and what honey I 

 got was fine. F. W. B.miek.

Bees Wintered All Right. 



My bees are now at work on peach, plum, 

 uiustaril and turnip blooms, and have come 

 thru the winter all right, and with no loss. I 

 lind bees swarm last April, and I believe they 

 will swarm again this year in April.

The report of the Chicago convention was

 tained therein easily accessible. I am more 

 imprest with the value of the National Asso-
