THE AMERICAN BEE JOURNAL. 



March 19, 



production by applying the highest 

 scieiice and the best a?-t to the business, 

 for this is tantamount to increasing the 

 price. 



Eugene Secor — Don't neglect the home 

 market to send your honey to large 

 cities. California honey is now selling 

 in my local market at one cent less than 

 my own. Who realizes the most profit 

 from its production, myself or the other 

 fellow? 



J. E. Pond — I don't know anything in 

 regard to this matter, as I don't produce 

 any honey to sell. My idea is, however, 

 that the requirements are : The best 

 honey, in well-filled sections, carefully 

 cleaned, and sent to the market in at- 

 tractive form. If this won't sell honey 

 nothing will. 



G. M. Doolittle— Legislation in favor 

 of the producers of wealth instead of 

 trusts, combines, and monopolies. The 

 trouble is not that the price of honey is 

 too low, but that what we have to buy 

 with our honey is too high, or out of pro- 

 portion. Legislation is all in favor of 

 the plutocrats or parasites, and against 

 the producers of wealth. 



G. W. Demaree — The most needed 

 thing I know of is a great deal of energy 

 to improve the "home market" for 

 honey. As long as nearly all the honey 

 is crowded into the city markets its 

 price will decline. I have a friend who 

 markets nearly his whole crop of honey 

 from a spring wagon in the country and 

 small villages, at a price from 30 to 50 

 per cent, above the quoted city markets. 



Convention I%etices. 



Texas.— The Texas State Bee-Keepers' con- 

 vention will be held on April 1 and 2. 1896. 

 All bee-keepers are Invited. 

 L, Blossom. Tex. W. H. White, Sec. 



r Utah.— The Utah Bee-Keepers' Association 

 will hold their semi-annual meeting In Room 

 54. Citv and County Building. Salt Lake City, 

 Apr. 6, 1896, at 10 a.m. All are invited. "In 

 union is strength. By industry we thrive." 

 Come, and bring: your friends, and enjoy a 

 good time. A lull program in the interest of 

 the industry will bepiesented. The Associa- 

 tion needs j'our aid ; then let every one do his 

 full duty for our own Interest and self-pres- 

 ervation. Geo. E. Dudley. Sec. 

 Provo, Dtah. 



Ready JUixed Paiuts.— There was 

 a time when people supposed that good 

 paint could only be produced by the use of 

 whitelead and oil. That argument is still 

 driven with considerable force by many 

 painters, because it is profitable for them 

 to do so. The IngersoU's Liquid Rubber 

 Paints are much cheaper and are guaran- 

 teed to be the best and most durable that 

 money will buy. These paints are free 

 from the objections of "chalking" and 

 will not scale or fade. They are sold 

 largely all over the country. To all those 

 wishing to inform themselves on this mat- 

 ter, we suggest that they correspond with 

 O. W, Ingersoll, of the Patron's Paint 

 Works, Brooklyn, N. Y., whose advertise- 

 ment is on another page. 



Bee-Keepers" Pliotogi-apli.— We 



have now on hand a limited number of ex- 

 cellent photographs of prominent bee-keep- 

 ers — a number of pictures on one card. The 

 likeness of 49 of them are shown on one of 

 the photographs, and 131 on the other. We 

 will send them, postpaid, for .50 cents each, 

 mailing from the 121 kind first ; then after 

 they are all gone, we will send the 49 kind. 

 So those who order first will get the most 

 " faces " for their money. Send orders to 

 the Bee Journal office.
