GLEANINGS IN BEE CULTURE 



RASPBERRY HONEY 



There are some raspberries left near some of our 

 apiaries in Northern Michieran, and we are scatterinjr 

 our bees out where there are patches of berries left un- 

 burned. and the prospects are that we shall tret some 

 raspberry honey the cominpr season, but probably not 

 so larsre a crop as usual. 



Any one wishing to be sure of securing some of this 

 honey would do well to send in his order in advance. 



as the honey will Quite likely be snapped up in a hurry. 



If any one cares to send us advance orders, such or- 

 ders will be greatly appreciated, and the honey will be 

 shipped just as soon as harvested. 



The honey will be stored in bright, new, ro««rf jacket- 

 ed tin cans, with flat cover and wire bail. Price ten 

 cents a pound — $6.00 for a can.
