W. Z. HUTCHINSON, 



ROGERSVILLE, GENESEE CO., MICH., 



Has published a neat little book of i'^ pages, entitled 

 "The Production of Comb Honey." Its distinctive 

 feature is the thorough manner in which it treats 

 of the use and non-use of foundation. Many other 

 points are, however, touched upon. For instance, 

 it tells how to make the most out of unfinished sec- 

 tions, and how to winter bees with the least ex- 

 pense, and bring them through to the honey harvest 

 in the best possible shape. 



Price of book, 35 cents. Stamps taken, either U. 

 S. or Canadian.
