GLEANINGS IN BEE CULTURE

Opinions From Producers. 



Early in July we sent to actual honey producers, 

 scattered over the country, the following questions: 



1 . What has been the average yield per colony to 

 date for your locality ? Give answer in pounds. 

 Comb honey ? Extracted honey ? 



2 . How does the total crop compare with normal 

 in your locality? Give answer in per cent. 



3 . What price are producers asking for the new 

 crop in large lots ? Comb honey ? Extracted 

 honey ? 



It will be noted that the prices given by some 

 of the reporters are for large lots, while others 

 quote prices in small lots to the retail grocer.

 anteed stock of Untested Queens at
