In selliiig- honey by this method, I have it put up in Mason quart fruit-cans, bearing mj' name and address on a highly-colored label, also another label containing- directions for reliquefying-. Taking a number of cans so prepared, together with a sufficient number of circulars (of which I send a sample), I am'prepared for my canvass. On reaching my field of action. I distribute the honey and circulars around to the private houses, leaving a can of honey and one of each of the circulars, and on the follow- ing day, or the day spoken of in the small circular, I again call and collect what honey is not sold, and the pay for the rest. So far the plan has workt well, and I have lost no cans of hone}-, and I am positive I have made many sales where otherwise I would not have done so. The benefits of this plan are as follows : Agents being' considered bj' the majority as a common nuisance, nearly every one has " no '" on the end of the tongue when any- thing is offered for sale by an agent, and the quickest way to get rid of him is the only thought, while many times, on reflection, people find they wish they had purchast. But this plan gets them from an unexpected quarter, " surprises the enemy," so to speak, and very few will deny you the privilegfe of leaving the honey : and once in a familj' (espe- cially where there are children) the temptation to sample is too great to overcome, and if you have a good article a sale is made. Again, this sj-stem dispels many doubts about its purity, for they reason that you would not leave it if it were not the genuine article, and, in fact, you wouldn't. In practicing this system a strictly high-grade article must be handled, and you are establishing a future trade in honey. Genesee Co.,
