 half roller lor fastenini; foundation and liiid it 

 more satisfactory than the roller, for the rol- 

 ler pushes too mucli. I take a lirm piece of 

 wood :t-IO of an inch thick, :i inches Ion;;, anil

 circle on one end, trim oil' nice and riiund,

 convenient, ami roll over on tills once for 

 every frame, and it will not sti<-k to j'our rol-

 roller, I have put to frames in a few minutes, 

 and that is fast enou^rh for anyone. 



I have ccplaiiieil this device as clear as 1 

 could, and if there is any one who wants to 

 know more, I would be only too glaii to ex- 

 plain further.

Keeping Down Increase by Uniting 

 Swarms. 



I see on page 4(IH, under "Prevention of 

 Increase," what I call uniting swarms or 

 doubling them up. It says when the tirst col- 

 ony swarms hive the swarm in the usual way. 

 When the second colony swarms hive in No. 

 1, that is. in the hive of the colony that tirst 

 swarmed, and so on. My plan is to have 

 boxes to put bees in that I wish to double up. 

 When the tirst colony swarms hive in a box ; 

 when No. 2 swarms put it into a hive or shake 

 off in front of the liive; then take No. 1 in 

 the box and dump them out on swarm No. "J. 

 and they will all go in together in perfect 

 peace. I have thrown 7 weak swarms to- 

 gether in that way, and got a good colony, 

 whereas, if they had each been hived in sepa- 

 rate hives, they would have been of no account.

MAKKET QUOTATIONS 



Chicaoo, July 7.— The honey market may be 

 sauI to be nil a vacation ho far ai actual buni- 

 nesB is conci-rnril. Should Ihe harveot of 101)1 

 be practically a failure there will be no dearth 

 of extracted hnnej, an there is more of it in 

 Bioraije than we have ever known at thJH seaaon 

 of the year. If the consumerH are not too 

 t'reatly impressed with the idea that the faonev 

 harvest is a failure this season it may be worked 

 off at an advance in piice. Beeswax is lower, 

 jet sells well at 30 cents per pound. 



R. A.BCKKETT &Co.

 has arrived. We quote: New, IMa-lSc; old.

CiNciN.NATi, March 6.— The market in ex- 

 tr.acted honey is (rood with prices lower. Am- 

 ber, for manufacturing purposes, brinjfs from 

 i,'4(mbiic: better (frades from7(a„Sc. Fancy comb 

 honey sells at 16c; lower grades hard to Bell at 

 any price. Beeswax stronif at 27to3nc.

Albany, N. Y., July Ki. — Honey market not 

 opened yet for this season, but we look for de- 

 niand to bejfio in a couple weeks. Ko old crop 

 in the way. E.xpect good demand and good 

 prices lor new crop, which is very light in this 

 ^■'Cinity. H. R. Wright. 



Detroit, Apr. 8.— Fancy white comb honey, 

 ISc; No. 1, 13(a.i4c; dark and amber, ll@12c.

 wax dull and declining at 2'.>c. 



HlLDRETH & SEOELKBS. 



Cincinnati, July 7.— The shipments and of- 

 fers on new comb honey are so little, besides 

 the predictions for the yield of honev so uncer- 

 tain, that I can give no figure for prices. Ex- 

 tracted is s-elling for the same price— Amber, in 

 barrels, sasi^c; alfalfa, 6("i,)^c; white clover, 

 '>J^c. Beeswax. 2.'^c in cash.

San Francisco, July ).— White comb 10® 

 12 cents; amber, 7@10c; dark, 6@7 cents. Ex- 

 tracted, white, S@— ; light amber, 4«(a— ; 

 amber. 4®—. Beeswax, good to choice, light. 

 27ei20c; dark, 25fe2i,c. • s '. 



Stocks are of light volume and market can- 

 not be termed favorable to buyers, but demand 

 is not brisk at prices now generally asked, 

 dealers waiting as a rule for offerings 10 be pre- 

 sented to them. If presure to realize were ex- 

 erted, the material shading of rates to buyers 

 would be necessary to effect noteworthy whole- 

 sale transfers.
