PAGE WOVEN WIRE FENCE CO., Adrian, Mich. last fall and winter. A man palmed off as their product a large amount of mixture as honey, which he carried in a large tin- pail with a dipper. He tried a new role; in lieu of having pieces of honey Iloating in it, it was masht up fine. He canvast the city thoroughly, and sold large amounts of it, as he offered it cheaply, and was not molested in his nefarious calling; he never offered it but once at the same house. He wrote to us, desiring to purchase honey cut from the sections, aud shipt to hiui in tln- pails, claiming residence in the country. We didn't ship. Mrs. L. ; Peoria, 111., April 30. Busy with Swarming. I have 4(1 colonies now, and had 21 left from last year, making an increase of 25; but there were more swarms than that, as I put several of them together. I use the S- frame Langstroth hive, and super that holds 30 one-pound sections. They com- menced swarming before the first of March, and I had my hands full of swarms for a few weeks. Wm. H. Baktlett. Maricopa Co., Ariz., April 23. Experience with Sweet Clover. April 1, , I received a trial package of sweet clover, on condition that I report the results. I sowed it the 13th. I first plowed the ground, sowed the seed, and harrowed with light harrow. It did not come up very well, but by August it was 2 feet high : then the drouth came on, and I saw no clover until the spring of IS'.Ki, when it made its appearance again, bloomed very well, and the bees visited it every day, but did not seem to store much honey, as it was one of the worst honey-years I ever saw. I had three swarms, and had to feed them to prevent starving.
