Stone (111.)—All capped for any market. Arthub C. Millek (R. I.)—I do not ship honey. L. Stachelhausen (Tex.)—The whole, if possible. N. E. France (Wis.)—The more capped the better. Mrs. .1. M. Ntol (Mo.)—Practically the whole of it. Dr. J. P. H. Brown (Ga.)—I should want it all capped. P. H. Elwood (N. T.)—Practically all. If not all, put in lower grade. G. M. DoowTTLE (N. T.)—All but the cells bordering on the section. Wm. McEvot (Ont.)—All. Ship the very best, every time, to any market. Morgan Bros. (S. Dak.)—99 percent; second grade honey, 85 percent. 3. A. Green (Colo.)—All of it, except possibly the row of cells next the wood. C. H. DiBBEBN (111.)—It should be all capped, unless it is a few cells next the wood. J. M. Hambauoh (Calif.)—The more capped over the better. The less uncapped the better. E. D. TowNSEND (Mich.)—All in Fancy and No. 1, from three- fourths to nearly all in No. 3. Anything less is extracted. E. S. L0VE8T (Utah)—The entire surface. It can hardly be classed as first-class unless it is well filled and nicely capped. Adrian Getaz (Tenn.)—All but the next row or two of cells adjacent to the wood. If all could be capped it would be still better. E. Whitcomb (Nebr.)—All of it. Every cell, if we expect to get a fair price, and not have the combs mussed with leaking when they arrive. G. W. Dkmaree (Ky.)—The entire surface of the section should be sealed, though a few open cells at the outer edges may be tolerated without loss. 0. O. Pop
