y Curious Honey Package.

\ Michigan correspondent in American
Bee Journal describes novel package
containing honey, which may be sold at
fairs and elsewhere at from five to ten
cents each. He says: sit will be seen
that needle is large enough to make a
hole at the small end of the egg shell, and
the hole in the other end will need to be
as large as small pea. By running the
needle in only far enough to break the
inside skin of the egg the contents can be
blown out with the pressure of ones
breath. When the shells are empty fill
them by means Of glass syringe, and
have to be careful not to get any honey
on the edge of the shell, or it would pre-
vent the mixture of rosin and beeswax
from sticking. The heat of the warm
preparation needs to be counteracted in
some way, as it causes little expansion,
which would force the honey out through
the hot wax"

Take two twelve inch boards, six feet
long. and one twelve inch board the
length and width of coop, and nail to

inch boards. cut in same lengths, and
nailed together same as the twelve inch

on top of the twelve inch board frame by
mailing three inch strips upright at or near
the corners and open end, leaving space
of three inches between the twelve inch

netting across the top of frame and the

The run is not fastened to the coop by
nails or otherwise, but is made to slide

get nothing to eat or drink that is not
good for them; one brood does not get

reling and fighting among the mother

number of broods can be handled with
