. British bee journal & bee-keepers adviser. Bees. Sept. 25, 1919. THE BRITISH BEE JOURNAL. 41T. Honey Competition. Grocers' Exhibition, 1919. The quantity of honey shown at this exhibition, at which we had the pleasure of judging, is not large compared with pre-war shows, but there is more than we expected to see. The honey is all of good quality, and the competition very keen. Sections is a very small class, but this was to be expected, as the past season has not been favourable for section pro- duction. The light-extracted honey is the largest class and some excellent honey is st&ged. Very few mistakes have been made bj' exhibitors entering honey in the wrong classes. One or two are too dark or too light for their re- spective classes. One exhibit in the light honey class should have been in the granulated class, and three exhibits contained heather. In the wax class were two exhibits. A better sample than that awarded first prize could not be desired. It is also exceedin"gly well got up. We suggest to exhibitors tnat they read the schedule and rules more carefully. We are alwaj's sorry to see only one exhibit ruled out, beca^use it is entered in a wrong class. Under those conditions the time and trouble and expense of sending are wasted -ho far as prize-winning is con- cerned. The following is the list of awards : — Class 67.—Bee appliances. No entry. Class 68.—Honey trophy: 1st, G. Bryden, Hamilton House, Star Hill, Rochester. Class 69.—Twelve one-pound sections, comb honey. Five entries.—1st, G. J. Flashman. Bucketts Land Cottage. Holms Hill, Shenley ; 2nd, G- Bryden : 3rd, W. J. Goodricli, Oxford Street Dairv, Gloucester; , E. G. Waldock, "TJpwey," The-Mount, Guildford; , A. E. Warren, Old Lane Apiary, Simpson, Bletchley. Class 70.—Twelve jars light extracted honey. 24 entries.—1st, G. Bryden ; 2nd, G. J. Flashman; 3rd, Mrs. Anderson, High Hurstwood. Uckfield: 4th, Mrs. L. Morgan, Fnderwood, Portskewett; 5th, Rev. L.
