1898 fences 



IN ORDER to clean out from our 

 branches all that remain of last 

 year's .stock of Fences, and Supers 

 packt with' them, we offer them while 

 they last at a sufficient reduction to 

 make them move. Last year's fences, 

 though not perfect, can be used by 

 those who prefer cheapness to perfec- 

 tion. The cleats are U-inch wide, 

 where we now make them S-16 and 12 

 to 2 inches thick, while we now make 

 them 13 to 2 inches. Slats are a little 

 clo.ser together in some cases than this 

 year. These changes are so slight as 

 to be scarcely appreciable in results. 

 There is some stock at all of the ad- 

 dresses given below, which we offer, 

 while it lasts, as follows :

What About the "Golden" Comb- 

 Honey Management? 



[These questions were sent out and answered 

 before the recent series of articles by Mr. Golden 

 were publisht.— Editor.] 



Query 89.— Referring to Mr. Golden's conib- 

 honev articles, on pag'es 481 and 883 1896 , and 

 Mr. Hartzell's on paffe 742 (18971, I would ask 

 you to state briefly — 



1. Would you adopt it in preference to older 

 methods? 



2. Do you consider it worthy of fuller trial? 

 — S. D. 



E. S. Lovesy — 1 and 2. Yes. 



D. W. Heise — 1 and 2. I don't know. 

 Rev. M. Mahin — 1. I would not. 2. 



It may be. 



A. F. Brown — 1. No, not entirely. 2. 

 In a measure. 



Mrs. L. Harrison — No time to look 

 up references. 



Dr. J. P. H. Brown— 1 and 2. I have 

 never tried them. 



J. M. Hambaugh — 1. I really don't 

 ktiow. 2. I can't saj-. 



E. France — I cannot say, as I have 

 not your references at hand. 



Dr. C. C. Miller— 1. I have not 

 adopted it. 2. I have not tried it. 



Emerson T. Abbott — M}* advice is. 

 let the other fellow do the experiment- 

 ing. 



O. O. Poppleton — I know too little 

 about comb honey to answer these 

 questions. 



J. A. Green— 1 and 2. The method 

 looks plausible to me, and I consider it 

 worthy of a trial. 



S. T. Pettit— 1. I never read it in 

 full, so I am not in a position to judge. 

 2. I don't know. 



R. L. Taylor— 1. No. 2. I see noth- 

 ing to recommend in it. Mr. Golden 

 practically acknowledges it a failure 

 on page 742 (1897). 



Jas. A. Stone — 1. The methods re- 

 ferred to looks reasonable, tho I can- 

 not speak of them from experience. 2. 

 I don't like to recommend what I have 

 not tried. 



C. H. Dibbern — 1. I would stick to 

 such methods as have been most suc- 

 cessful with me until experiments with 

 other methods have convinced me that 

 they are better. 2. Yes. 



P. H. Elwood— 1. Not yet; not hav- 

 ing- tried it I am not qualified to say 

 much about it. 2. I have not tried it 

 because I thought a fine quality of 

 comb honey could not be produced by 

 that method. 



G. M. Doolittle— Nearly all have 

 methods of their own which they con- 

 sider just a little better than those 

 adopted by others. Golden's methods 

 are good, but mine are just a little bet- 

 ter. " Do you see ?" 



R. C. Aikin— 1. No. 2. Probably in 

 a limited way. Let Messrs. Golden and 

 Hartzell get in their 1898 reports.
