It does not pay to devote valuable land to the 

 production of any plant simply for the honey it 

 may produce. In providing forage for the bees, 

 other than what they naturally find, choice should 

 be made of those plants that produce honey and yet 

 are a paying crop aside from the honey. One of 

 these plants wliich generally produces honey, and 

 at a time when ot her bee-pasturage is usually scarce, 

 is buckwheat. The best variety of this that we are 

 acquainted witii is the Japanese, which has been 

 before the public for five or six years. With favor- 

 able conditions and g«od soil this will easily pro- 

 duce 50 bushels per acre, and it matures within a 

 few weeks from the time it is sown. It rarely 

 l:)rings less than .50c a bushel tor flouring, and often 

 a much higher price. The price the past year has 

 ranged much higher than usual, being from 70c to 

 $1.00 a bushel. 



The time for seeding is at hand, and we are pro- 

 vided with a good stock of choice seed which we 

 offer, while it lasts, at the following prices: 1-lb. .5c; 

 1 peck, 40c; K bush., 70c; 1 bush , $1.30; 3 bush., 

 $3.20; 10 bush., $10.00; bags included. By mail, 8c 

 per pound extra for postage.
