Under this Tiead will be in=prtefl, free of cmrge, tiie names or 

 all those Imvinij honey to sell, as well as those wanting to buy. 

 Please mention how much, what kind, and piices. as far as pos- 

 sible. As a geneial thing, I would not advise you to send vour 

 honey away to be sold on commission. If near home, where 

 yoa can look after it, it is often a very (rood way. Bvallmeans, 

 develop your home market. For 25 cents we "can furnish little 

 boards to hanpr ud in your doorvara, with the words. "Honey 

 forSale," ne,itly painted. If wanted bvmail, lOcents extra for 

 postage. Boards saying ' ' Bees and Queens for Sale, ' ' same
