Honey Wanted 



For our Honey trade we will require of this season 's crop, if available, about 

 50 carloads in excess of the crops from Apiaries producing for us. 



The interest in Airline Honey in all of the markets where it has been sold has 

 greatly exceeded the anticipations of all. We believe that the Airline campaign 

 with its various forms of publicity and work has brought about interest in the 

 use of honey, far beyond the conception of anyone at this time, except those most 

 intimately familiar with its present status. This new interest in honey all over the 

 U. S. is responsible, we believe, for the present bare markets, active demand, and 

 good prices. 



The hearty support of many large producers and dealers has been greatly appre- 

 ciated by us the past year. 



We again invite the continued cooperation of all producers and dealers; for 

 without this we certainly cannot continue our large and expensive campaign to 

 popularize honey. We confidently believe with active cooperation that we caa 

 secure for honey producers greater results in the coming year than in the past. 



Please remember that we buy only for our trade. We do not speculate in 

 honey. When you are ready to contract or sell, write or wire us. We are inter- 

 ested in crops both large and small.
