Bearing in mind, too, that the —to whose management the Bee department of the Show is entrusted by the Council of the Royal Agricultural Society—have increased the amount of prizes this year to over £60, we do hope that bee-keepers will appreciate the effort made to render the Show worthy of the " Royal," not only in the value of the awards, but of the bee-industry as a whole. The poor season of '98 has, of course ^ seriously damaged the prospect of seeing good honey staged from many districts, but the scarcity should stimulate those who possess honey of any year to enter the lists, and swell the number of exhibits. To put the matter in another and perhaps more attractive Avay, there will be a considerable increase in number and value of the prizes (compared with the shows of recent years), and a no less considerable increase in the chances of winning an award by reason of the probable scarcity of exhibitors. Add to this the usual facilities for the return of entry fees for honey of '99 in case of ad- verse weather, we think a good case is made out for urging an appreciatory effort on the part of bee-keepers in response to the gene- rous donations which go to swell the prize fund.
