THE BEE-KEEPERS' REVIEW 



been very quiet during the past two months 

 and we do not see any indications for a bet- 

 ter demand, as the supply is more than ample 

 to meet the demand California light amber 

 sage, which was reported to be of very short 

 crop in the beginning of the season, was held 

 at high figures and now it is being offered 

 flujte freely with no buyers. West Indian is 

 arriving very freely with' very little demand 

 and prices are declining right along the line. 

 We quote California sage light amber at 7^2C 

 to 8c per pound; California alfalfa at 6c to 

 65^c per pound, and West Indian at 73c to 75c 

 per gallon. „,,

 Gentlemen : — 



Enclosed please find check for $1.50 

 for renewal of Review and Association 

 membership. The Review has been a 

 great help to me and I would not like 

 to miss a number. Had 14 colonies 

 last spring and went into winter with 

 38 colonies, besides getting a little over 

 a 1,000 lbs. of nice comb honej^ The 

 demand is limited here for fancy honey. 

 Sold it for 121/2 cents per section to 

 grocery stores and some very nicely 

 cartoned for 15 cents per section. 

 Most all the other bee-keepers sold for 

 10 cents and some for 12><^ cents per 

 section.

 Mr. E. B. Tyrrell. 

 Dear Sir:— 



Am reading Joseph Scott's article on 

 "Some Glimpses of Bee-Keeping in a 

 Warm Climate," where he allows 

 to leave. The thought came to me 

 when in the spring we in the north are 

 wanting bees why could not our south- 

 ern friends hive these swarms and sell 

 them to us at a small profit. If this 

 can be answered in the Review would 

 be glad to see it. 1)ut if you have not a 

 department for such, do not bother.
