The Honey Crop a Failure.

The long drought in June had an indirect re-
suit on one Addison county industry not noted at
the time, honey producing. G. W. Fassett, who
owns 100 swarms OF bees in East Middlebury and
Hancock, will secure only about 500 pounds this
year. L. o. Thompson OF Weybridge, who last
year secured 13 tons, will have none this season,
and j. Z. Crane. who marketed II tons in 1898,
will get about 500 pounds this year. The two lat
ter gentlemen will have to feed their swarms un-
til next spring and this will require about eight
tons Of sugar each. This season has been the
worst Mr.. Fassett has ever known, and he has
been a beekeeper since his youth. The five
largest bee, keepers in Addison county are J. H.
Crane L. o. Thompson, V. V. Blackmar, OF Or
we'll R. II. Holmes of Shoreham and W. q. Lar
rabee OF Larrabee's Point Together they own
about 1000 colonies of bees, or one-third of all
owned in the county Last season over 100 tons
OF honey shipped out of Addison county
this year there is not enough for home demand
In ssime parts of the county owners for several
weeks have be EN- feeding their bees to keep then
| from starving. Reports # actual starvation
have been received. II Is a notable fact that the
worst season for maple sugar Vermont has ex
