We received a nice lot of white comb honey a few weeks ago. It came in excellent condition, because the producer who shipped it followed our instructions as to packing. But when we opened it, we found that not only on every case, but on every section as well, he had rubber-stamped his name and address. Of course we had to spend the time necessary to scrape off all the marks. Had we wanted the producer's name and address on the honey we would have requested him to put it on. It is not a safe rule to put your name and address on comb honey unless 3'ou are retailing it yourself. Then it would be all right. Or, if the dealer buying your honey wanted it on. We have worked up a demand for " York's Honey," and not Smith's, or Miller's, or Nelson's honey. It would simply be foolish for us to create a demand for Nelson's honey one year, and then the next year he would likely have no crop. Where would we be then ? Again, Nelson couldn't produce the tenth part of what we would need to supply our trade. Then, where would we be again ? The best way when wholesaling honey is to omit the name and address from every case and every section. Packing Comb Honey for Shipping.—Now is the time to repeat the directions for packing comb honey for safe shipment. There are always a number of new readers who need to learn how to do it properly, and then a good many not so new need to be reminded occasionally lest they be- come careless. We prefer to pack say about a dozen 12-pound cases, or eight 24-pound cases, in a large crate, first putting
