Mr Green has certainly given a whole lot of sound advice to honey-producers in a very short space. And if his suggestions are carried out a great deal more honey will be consumed by the public than is now being used. What The Honey-Producers' League needs to do is to get busy on a trade-mark or brand for the honey of its members, and then adver- tise such trade-marked or branded honey in periodicals like the Ladies' Home Journal, The Delineator, Woman's Home Companion, etc. Mr. Green gives the League a very strong endorsement, and also points out almost its only weak spot—having provided for no trade-mark or brand for the honey of its mem- bers.

The Honey-Producers' League was organized for a good purpose, and its machinery needs only to be worked in order that resulting benefits may be enjoyed. But a larger membership is also needed.

Allow the robbers free entrance into a new hive on the old stand, supplying them with very weak syrup. When they have had some of this, dilute it until it is little more than sweetened water. They soon give up in dis- gust, and, next day, the colony may be safely restored t
