ALFALFA 

 HONEY 



This is the famous white extracted honey 

 gathered in the great Alfalfa regions of the 

 Central West. It is a splendid honey, and 

 nearly everybody who cares to eat honey at all 

 can't get enough of the Alfalfa extracted. 



BASSWOOD 

 HONEY 



<=«-=s=>=sg==«=>=«=>=*=><=«=<*> 



This Is the well-known light-colored honey 

 gathered from the rich, nectar-laden basswood 

 blossoms in Wisconsin. It has a stronger 

 flavor than Alfalfa, and is greatly preferred by 

 those who like a distinct flavor in their honey. 



PRICES OF EITHER ALFALFA OR BASSWOOD HONEY : 



A sample of either, by mail. Scents; samples of both, 15 cents — to pay for package and postage. 

 By freight — One 60-pound can, 1)4 cents a pound; 2 cans, T'i cents per pound ; 4 or more cans, 7 

 cents per pound. Cash must accompany each order. If ordering two or more cans you can have half 

 of each kind of honey, if you so desire. This honey Is all 



! Absolutely Pure Bees' Honey. 



i*^ 



the finest of their kinds produced in this country. 



We would suggest that those beekeepers who did not produce any honey for their home demand this 

 year, just order some of the above, and sell it. And others, who want to earn some money, can get 

 this honey and work up a demand for it almost anywhere. The pamphlet, " Honey as Food," will be 



a great help in creating customers for honey. See prices on another page.

Honey Crop a Failure. 



The honey crop is a failure in this part of 

 the State. There is not over 10 percent of 

 an ordinary crop. I have not seen a bee on 

 a white clover blossom this season, and not 

 one linden tree in five that yielded any 

 honey, or that the bees workt on. at all. 



Long live the American Bee Journal. I 

 have found it a very great help to me.

The "Golden" Comb -Honey Method. 

 1 believe that the older and more experi- 

 enced bee-keepers should have the first say 

 iu the bee-papers, and also at the bee-keep- 

 ers' conventions, and I have always been 

 anxious and willing to listen to men of 

 more experience than myself, but there 

 might be a line drawn somewhere, I am 

 thinking. For instance, on page 4S3, S. A. 

 Deacon got after J. A. Golden about his 

 management of the bees in the production 

 of comb honey. I knew as soon as 1 read 

 the article that he (Deacon) was trying to 

 get Mr. Golden to go on and explain the 

 whole method over again. Mr. Deacon 

 must have known that every practical bee- 

 keeper had tried, or knew all about, the 

 Golden system of producing honey. It 

 might be all right to get a man up to talk 

 at a bee-keepers' convention, for instance.
