Nebraska and Calirornia in 1895.—The New York SuQ reports that in 1895 there was marketed in Ne- braska 300,000 pounds of extracted honey at an average of 10 cents per pound. And that California produced 2,000,000 pounds of extracted honey, 200,000 pounds of comb honey, and 30,000 pounds of beeswax.

Old methods and implements have been stricken out, and new onces incorporated in their proper position. The special feature of this edition is the introduc- tion of a large number of beautiful half-tone engravings rep- resenting various manipulations of the bees, and everything
