Page 537. No Harm to Eat Wax in Honey. Dr. Bohrer says some good things on page 538; but I can't second his advice to fritter away advertising to tell the public that wax is not digestible.

And bran is capable of irritating some delicate stomachs, as wax seems not to be. Staokiko Up Sections of Honey fob FnBTHER Ripening.

Bees Scperseding Qdeens. And here's a good idea of C. P. Dadant's: If a queen is very prolific the workers will quickly notice it when she begins to fail, and rear another to supersede her. But if she has been a poor one all her life they may not pay attention when she becomes somewhat poorer. Page 540. Color of Hair and a Day's Work. Is that strange assertion a fact, Dr. Millerl Can't tell by the color of a man's hair how big a day's work he can do? Say, now. I'm quite sure I could do a bigger day's work be- fore my hair got to be white. Page 543. "Honey-Butter
