Do you want a Good 



Market for your Crop of Honey, 



BOTH COMB AND EXTRACTED? 



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



• following- reasons : j 



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



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



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



I We know, thru our long experience, the different varieties and qualities of honey ; therefore know what we 1 



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



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



I make the charges very reasonable. | 



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



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



f for spot cash. t 



t If you prefer to sell j-our product, write us, stating quantity you have, qualitj-, and how put up, and we will | 



J make you our cash offer. I 



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



J from you soon. |

 tin screw-cap, holdiuf^ -'i pound of honey. Both

 entitled, "How to 



Supers lor Winter.— " Australian 

 Yankee" has for years, for wintering, 

 tried, side by side with chaff hives and 

 hives with cushions on, hives with supers 

 left on, and the latter colonies come best 

 thru the winter. — Australian Bee-Bulletin. 



Xlie Importance ot Young- 

 Queens is urged by Editor Simmins. He 

 says Mr. Cowan was among thje first to in- 

 sist upon their necessity, bis practice being 

 to keep them two whole seasons. But Mr. 

 Simmins has never seen the queen that 

 under high pressure would do as good work 

 the second as the first season. They both 

 agree that home-reared queens are best. 

 As Mr. Simmins is a queen-breeder, that 

 probably means queens reared in England 

 as against imported queens. — Bee-Chat. 



Worms and I'oIIen in Sectionis. 



—In my experience wax-moth will never 

 touch comb unless pollen has been deposited 

 in the cells at some time, and surely no bee- 

 keeper would ever put on the market a sir- 

 lion in which the queen has laid or pollen 

 has been stored !— Australian Bee-Keeper. 

 That may be all right in Australia, but 

 on this side of the globe lots and lots of 

 worms have been found in sections where 

 no particle of pollen ever had been. Neither 

 would a single cell of pollen disqualify a 

 section for market if the section were all 

 right in other respects.
