As the season is over for 1904, I will give a report of my honey crop. I have taken 1450 pounds this season, 77 pounds of which is extracted. My best colony gave me 152 pounds, and the average was 96 pounds per colony, spring count. I had 15 colonies last spring, and have increased to 30, and they are in fine shape for winter My bees are the red clover Italians. This was a good season for honey in this locality, and there is a fine growth of young white clover which makes the prospect look good for next season. H. M. Garner. Miller Co., Mo., Oct. 15. Good Market for Chunk Honey. Our bees have done fairly well this season, though some colonies did not store enough to take them through the winter. Others filled two-story hives full. I run mostly for chunk honey, as the farm and poultry take up too much of my time for working for sec- tion honey. Besides, it pays equally as well in our market to cut out the honey and sell it in quart, half-gallon, and three-quart pails, and by cutting only alternate combs it keeps the bees building all straight combs.
