Good Honey Crop— Advertising 

 Honey. 



Last year I produced 2460 pounds, all ex- 

 tracted but about 200 pounds of section 

 honey. This was secured from 10 colonies, 

 spring count, and increased to 18 colonies, all 

 of which are wintering on the summer stands 

 with plenty of stores, and well packed. They 

 had a good flight Dec. 31, that being a beauti- 

 ful, warm day. But since then it has been 

 very cold, the mercury dropping down to 36 

 degress below zero one morning. So I think 

 that those who wintered their bees outdoors, 

 and did not pack them properly, will find in 

 the spring that they are no more. 



I have about 1000 pounds of extracted 

 honey unsold at this time, and I find the mar- 

 ket very dull. Sol thought I would try the 

 " Honey as a Health-Food " pamphlets as a 

 medium of advertising. I mean to mail a 

 pamphlet to each of my friends and acquaint- 

 ances, and even inclose one in every business 

 letter I write. I hope this method will be 

 successful, and I think It will be. I expect 

 to increase my apiary to about 40 colonies 

 next season, and will probably double the 

 number of colonies for some years to come.

Hoffman and Closed-End Frames- 

 Keeping Colonies Warm. 



Overhearing a conversation lately between 

 a bee-keeper and a man named Jack, who 

 worked for him last summer, I thought I 

 would send it to you. 



" Well, Jack, what do you think of the 

 Hoffman frame?" 



" Well, boss, to tell the truth, in handling 

 it I can find no fault. It is a good spacer, but 

 in the extracting-room they don't like them at 

 all, and I think I heard Jim and Tim say 

 some very bad words about them." 



" Well, Jack, what do you think about the 

 allclosed-end frame hanging crosswise in a 

 hive, keeping the bees warm in spring?" 



" Well, boss, I don't know, but I think they
