I FROM MANY FIELDS | 



Good Season for Honey. 



We had a very good honey season in 1903. 

 I had colonies in the spring, increased 6, 

 and caught one extra. 1 got 750 pounds of 

 surplus honey, and sold the most of it for 

 131.2 cents per pound, only keeping what I 

 wanted for my own use.

Cleaning Out Unfinished Sections. 



What Miss Wilson says, on page 41, about 

 cleaning unfinished sections, affords uie an 

 opportunity to say a few more words on that 

 subject. 



Last fall I had more than 1000 sections 

 cleaned by the plan given on page 78 (1903). 

 There is no kink about it. The essentials to 

 a reasonable, if not absolute, success are: 



1. To begin the work early in the fall. 



3. To be sure to have a piece of burlap or 

 other loose-woven cloth between super and 

 brood-chamber, so that there shall be left 

 only a small space above the brood-frames 

 uncovered. 



3. That the uncapping of the sealed honey 

 be not delayed until the weather becomes so 

 cool that the bees are compelled to stay in the 

 brood-chamber a large part of the time. 



I can see no advantage, but rather some 

 disadvantage, in placing an empty hive-body 

 between brood-chamber and super. 



Although I was very successful in getting 

 sections cleaned out in the way I have re- 

 lated, yet, in some instances, when a super 

 full of sections seemed to be more than the 

 colony needed, I would take out a part of the 

 unsealed ones and place them, about sunset, 

 at the entrance of the hive of some other col- 

 ony that needed feeding. Doing this on 



¥B pay.

If you were offered a hive that would save you 

 one-half of your time and labor in its manipula- 

 tions; one that would save you more than f 1.00 

 in costs of extras; or a double-wall hive (or the 

 price of a single-wall hive, would vou not inves- 

 tigate its claims or merits/ The 20th CEN- 

 TURY IDEAL does all the above. Then why 

 not be on time and send for circulars today?
