Honey was sold as low as one crown per kilogram (about 11 cents a pound) before the war, but now it is advertised as high as three crowns per kilogram (41 cents a pound). One dealer in Stockholm claims to have imported the finest white California honey from the Santa Clara district before the war for about 13K cents a pound. The Swedish beekeepers resent the importation of foreign honey in competition with their own. Extracted and strained honey are produced almost exclusively. There seem to be as many kinds and sizes of hives and ideas about the merits and demerits of the different hives as here. A large number of straw skeps are also kept as well as movable- frame hives with sides and ends of woven straw and a frame. Queen ex- cluders made entirely from wood are advertised by the manufacturers. A recipe for a very popular honey drink, more of a beverage than mead, is given.
