Kind Words from gur Customers 



The other swarm is doing finely. They are the 

 best workers, and the best-natured bees I ever saw. 

 Windsor, Mo., Sept. 2. C. F. Davis. 



Those queens you shipped me are laying finely. 

 Ft. Dodge, la., Sept. 3. E. E. Townsend. 



Ater increasing two of my hives to six I took out 

 about 150 lbs. from the two original hives. I feel 

 more and more interested every day. 



Chas. Eschelbach. 



Cleveland, O., Sept. 24. 



The southern-bred queen you sent me in May was 

 put in a two-frame nucleus, and to date I have tak- 

 en 80 sections from them. I think she will pass the 

 100 mark easily. 



Kimberly, Ida., Aug. 30. Everett G. Hager. 



My bees have filled a second story with combs 

 and honey, and my best colonies have filled three 

 supers of the finest sections that were ever seen in 

 this part of the country — all pure alfalfa honey. 



Willows, Cal., Sept. 26. Thos. C. Davis. 



I have been noting results where your queens 

 have been used to resist European foul brood dur- 

 ing my inspection work; in fact, I have tested a 

 few in my own yard, and find them equal to the 

 best in resisting foul brood, and I have good reason 

 to believe that your stock has longer life than the 

 lighter-colored strains of Italians.

THE BANK THAT PAYS 4 PER CENT 



Honey reports continued from page 2. 



Indianapolis. — Fancy white sells at 18 in ten- 

 case lots; No. 1 white 1 ct. less; amber comb is in 

 slow demand and at lower figures. Best extracted 

 sells at 11 to 12 in five-gallon cans. There is an ex- 

 cessive demand for comb honey, but very little is 

 now being offered by producers. Beeswax is in good 

 demand, and producers are being paid 30 cts. 



Indianapolis, Jan. 8. Walter S. Pouder. 



Albany. — The honey market is, so to speak, " in 

 statu quo;" light receipts and light demand, espe- 

 ially if not in good condition. There has been much 

 eially if not in god condition. There has been much 

 white comb, 15 to 16; buckwheat, 13 to 14, if in 

 good condition; otherwise prices from 10 to 12, as 

 one can strike a customer. Extracted stock is light, 

 9. Beeswax, 30 to 32. 

 19. Beeswax, 34 to 32. 



Albanv, .Jan. 8. H. R. Wright. 



Buffalo. — The demand for all kinds of honey 

 is pretty slow of late. The amount in the market is 

 small for this time of the year. We think most of 

 it is shipped in from the country. A good demand 

 for a short time would cause prices to advance a 

 little. We could get a big price for buckwheat if 

 we could get it — none arriving. We quote fancy 

 white comb, 17 to 18; No. 1 ditto, 16 to 17; No. 2 

 ditto, 12 to 14; amber, 10 to 12; white-clover ex- 

 tracted, 9 to 10; amber extracted, 7% to 8%; 

 dark extracted, IVz to 8. Beeswax, 28 to 30.
