QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS. 



Owing to the recent rush of busi- 

 ness and the important changes 

 that we have made, we have been 

 obliged to omit the securing of an- 

 swers for this department this month. 

 We trust, however, that our read- 

 ers will send us in lists of practical 

 questions to be answered, as by so 

 doing they can secure the opinions 

 of a number of our most prominent 

 apiarists. This feature is invaluable 

 to those who wish to make a success 

 of apicuhure.
