Sherman, Salado, Texas, on Dec. 10, 1888, writes as follows: Last spring my apiary consisted of 40 good colonies of Italian and hybrid bees. 1 increased them to 60 colonies, and obtained from them 6,000 pounds of honey—mostly extracted. How does that do for a woman ? [It is first rate. Tou must have had a good season down in Texas.—Ed.] Scanty Surplus.—J. , Belleville, Ont., on Dec. 13,1888, writes: The last two years have been very poor seasons tor apiarists. There was but very little surplus honey, and exceedingly small increase of bees. We hope for something better next year. Fair Season's Report.—Mr. Albert Schumacher, New Alsace, Ind., on Dec. 13, 1888, writes thus about his bees : Last spring I had 30 colonies of bees left out of 34 put into winter quarters in the fall previous (6 being blacks, 8 hybrids, and 6 young colonies from swarms of the previous year.) I have put 34 colonies away into win- ter quarters this fall, all being packed in a bee-nouse, and all are in good condition with plenty of honey, and I hope they will go through the winter safely, and come out strong next spring.
