Do you want a Good 



Market for your Crop of Honey, 



BOTH COMB AND EXTRACTED? 



We are in position to handle any quantity-, large or small, to better advantage than any other house, for the 

 following reasons : 



We deal almost exclusively in honey, giving it our closest attention all the year round. 

 We keep ourselves thorolj- posted as to the result of the crops gathered in the honey-producing States. 

 We are acquainted veith the most desirable trade thruout the country, and know exactly what their wants are. 

 We know, thru our long experience, the different varieties and qualities of honey ; therefore know what we 

 are selling, and no fear of selling fancy stock at the price of a third grade. 



We handle by far the bulk of all the honey sent to New York, and our volume of business enables ns to 



make the charges very reasonable. 

 Why, then, should we not be able to handle your crop to advantage, and do you justice in every respect ? 

 We handle not only on commission, but WE BUY OUTRIGHT as well, from small lots to carloads, 



for spot cash. 



If you prefer to sell your product, write us, stating quantity you have, quality, and how put up. and we will 

 make you our cash offer. 



We shall be glad to correspond with you in regard to your crop, and hope to have the pleasure of hearing 

 from j'ou soon.

Sliade vs. 8iin><liine. — A. Norton, 

 in Gleanings in BeeCuIture, while not dis- 

 pnting what may be in other places, says : 



'■ It has been my experience, the result of 

 extended observation in various parts 

 among the coast valleys of California, that 

 bees in the shade are invariably as cross as 

 can be endured, when the same bees in the 

 warm sunshine will be tractable. More- 

 over, the honey will be sealed over in a 

 thinner or less ripened state in the shade. 

 The reason of both conditions is not hard 

 to seek. Shade, then, is eminently a • ques- 

 tion of locality.' " 



SIia«1e for Hives is considered a 

 source of profit by the Wilson Bros., of the 

 Kickapoo Valley, Wisconsin. For two 

 years they have been making observations 

 on this point, and they think that shade in- 

 creases the surplus about one-fifth. Their 

 idea is that the intense heat upon the walls 

 of a single-walled hive drives the bees from 

 the bive to a certain extent upon hot days. 

 Herbert Clute told me that he secured more 

 honey from colonies in chail hives than 

 from those in single-walled hives. I related 

 these views to C A. Hatch, of Richland 

 County, Wis., and he took opposite views. 

 The Wilsons prefer trees for shade. Box- 

 elders grow quickly and make a nice tree.

 Hungarian bee, says Baron Bela Ambrozic, 

 occupies an intermediate position between 

 the Italian and Carniolan in swarming pro- 

 clivities, and also in brood-rearing, and 

 storage of honey in the brood-chamber.
