Clark Co., Wis., Convention. Some of the bee-keepers of Clark county. Wis., met in Greenwood, Sept. 10, for the purpose of organizing an association to be known as the " Clark County Bee-Keepers' ; The following officers were elected: Pres- ident, L. Allen; Vice-President, P. Kline; 2nd Vice-President, Geo. Drinkwine; Sec- retary, Chas. Pratt, of Greenwood; Treas- urer, C. T. Haskins. It was decided to hold the next meeting in Greenwood, Oct. 20, 1898, at which time we shall adopt a constitution, fix the an- nual dues of members, and transact such other business as may be necessary. All who feel interested are invited to attend. Chas. Pratt, Sec. Endorses Plain Sections and Fences. I want to speak a good word for the plain sections and fence separators. This is my first year's trial, and the result is very en- couraging. I get 2'^ cents a pound more for my comb honey put in the plain sections than I do for the others. The plain are filled out much better, and are more attractive. I can get r2i,i cents a pound for these readily when the 4i4x4'4 go beggiug at 10 cents a pound; in the use of these tall sections and separators I have obtained at least one- third more honey. I propose another year to use none other than the plain sections and fence separators. L. Allen. Clark Co., Wis., Sept. 13. liiglit Honey Crop. The honey crop is very light in this sec- tion—not more than one-half that of last year, but prices are a little better. W. W. Wh
