 "Tlie Production of Comb Honey;"

 loUowing "sample:" 



St. LOUIS, Mo., April 16. 1887. 



Friend Hutchinson.— Your tittle book has 

 been forwarded to me from home, with the state- 

 ment that "It has been read by every member of 

 the family;" and, judging from the numerous un- 

 derscored lines and bracketed passages, it was 

 thoroughly appreciated. 



I have been experimenting somewhat in the 

 same direction, and while my experiments were by 

 no means so thorough and exhaustive as yours, 

 they make me an earnest supporter of the 

 beliefs and practices laid down in your book, which 

 I value above price, and can endorse every word 

 of it. Sincerely yours, Dwight Furnkss.
