Iplease mention Bee Joomai wti«n WTitlnft plants than you will in the States mentioned above. Our main honey-flow is from white clover, which comes in about the middle of June and lasts till about the middle of August. There is a considerable fall flow in some years from a great variety of wild flowers, but this flow is very uncertain. I am sure there would be no difficulty in purchasing a small farm that would be suitable for an apiary, and do not suppose there would be any difficulty in a Northerner establishing an apiary, or apiaries, on other people's farms. I would be glad to answer other questions if in my power, or go into more minute particulars if desired. Don't come either to Virginia or Maryland under the delusion that you are coming to "The Sunny ; You must go lower down on the map for that. There has been no winter in the past 15 years that I have not had plenty of use for my heaviest and longest fur-lined overcoat. While I believe I am right in saying there are very few, if any, large apiaries here, there are numerous small ones, (mainly of the com- mon blaclc bees) scattered about. But I do not consider this State to be anything like half stocked with bees. " A Bee-Keeper in ; Augusta Co., Va.
