W. Z. HUTCHINSON, 



ROGERSVILLE, GENESEE CO., MICH., 

 Has received many complluientar.N' letters in re- 

 gard to his little book, 



"THE PRODUCTION OF COMB HONEY." 



The following is a sami)le: 



Friend Hittchinscm :—Youi- little book was read 

 with very great interest; and as I closed it 1 said to 

 my wife, "I wish Mr. H. were here this evening. 1 

 think I could keej) him busy awhile with questions." 

 There is a great deal in your book which 1 know by 

 exi)erience to be correct; and if your whole plan is 

 found to be so, and is generally adopted, it will 

 certainly work a revolution in bee-keeping. 



Yours Truly. E. M. Hayhuhst.
