Do You Need 

 Gleanings? 



Certainly. If you do not 

 read Gleanin<;s in Bee Cul- 

 ture and know the condition 

 of the honey market as re- 

 ported in the Honev Column, 

 you are likely to sell a good 

 crop of honey at from 10 to 

 25 percent below the market 

 price, as we know of some 

 who did last season, simply 

 because they did not know 

 that the market was better 

 than it had been in former 

 years. For these reports 

 alone you oug'ht to ha\e 

 Gleanings. The honey mar- 

 ket is correctly add definitely 

 quoted from the principal 

 cities of the United States 

 and corrected every issue.
