THE HONEY OF THE MARKET 7


Comb Honey "SoId In the Frame"
stiII Pure In This Country.
An interesting presentation Of the
question of adulterated honey is given
IN q recent number of the New York
Tribune in answer TO Il criticism by E.
II. Root, the we'll known apiarist, of
former statement AS appears from
the Tribune its present argument IS
based largely on conditions reported
In a government bulletin thirteen years
ago.
Mr.. Root in his letter quoted BY the
Tribune says:
For further proof we would refer
you TO Frank Benton, agricultural eX-
pert at the department OF agriculture,
Washington Repeatedly has he de-
MED in the government bulletins that
there is any such thing as manufac-
tured comb honey. Liquid honey may
be adulterated, but not to the extent
that has been represented. In several
of our leading states pure food laws
have been passed so stringent that
there is nothing but pure honey of any
kind on the market for sale
Comb Hosey Containing Glucose.
The following are among points or
the Tri5une's comments on its original
statement:
THAT some honey is adulterated In
the comb is a fact stated in part OF
bulletin No. 13, issued by the depart
ment of agriculture, division Of chem
istry, Feb. %, 1892. AS the result oil
a thorough analysis DR.. Ii. w. Wiley,
chief chemist of the department, III
that report said: Many samples Oh
comb honey containing only glucose
have come under my observation, but
| In all these cases the combs, presum-
ably after the separation or the money
| by a centrifugal machine, had been
placed in glass bottles and the glucose
then added. l have never yet found
sample of comb honey sold In the
frame which was artificial except IN
| the use Of comb foundation
"In the Tribune's article no mention
at all was made of comb honey sold IN
| the frame. The exact words used were
| Honey IS also adulterated in the comb,
which is accomplished, as DIR. Wiley
| explains, by expelling the honey from
| the cells by means of whirling it about
at a high rate of speed and then plac-
| ing the empty comb In bottles where
| the glucose is added.
| Artificial Comb and Foundation.
| THAT the honeycomb as well as the
| contents of its cells may be more or
| less artificial Is well established fact
| DR.. Wiley speaks Of fifteen patents that
| have been issued for the manufacture
| of artificial comb and comb founda-
| ton. 1t Is in these comb foundations
these artificial layers Of wax which
some apiarists place in the center Of
| the frame for the bees to build on, that
opportunities are offered for adultera-
| ton. According to DIR. Wiley, no comb
| foundations have been obtained by his
men in the United States which were
| found to be adulterated, but he pub
| fishes letter from Canadian chemist
| which shows that 1t can be done.

No News Of Fleet.

London, April 1.-THE only news
today regarding the movement of
the hostile fleets in the Far East is
the reported sighting of Japanese
cruisers on Sunday heading toward
Singapore, and watching the route
toward Saigon, Cochin China. Ex-
perts agree that Admiral Togo will
at present content himself by using
his swift vessels for cutting out odd
stragglere, especially Russian colliers.
A private telegram from Singapore
says four large steamers, apparently
colliers, passed there this morning
going eastward. It is believed they
are the advance guard of sixteen
German vessels which were chartered
by Russia as supply ships to the
Baltic squadron. It is believed
Roiestversky will await the arrival
of the colliers before trying to cross
the China sea.

For the benefit of those inqulring

examined the rock on the places OF
z. A. W. Sturkie, J. A. Lucas, the
Martins and G. A. Goodwin; also,

Since his return samples have been
shipped to New York and We are
now awaiting with bated breath the
result. Should they prove acceptable
before long the hum of machinery
may be heard in the quiet little town
of CASTOR.

pointed assessors in each township
and have mailed to them blank forms
to be used in securing pledges. It
is very essential that the csnvassers
complete the work as soon as possi-
BILE and report to me the result.
All pledge lists should be returned
to me not later than the 25th inst,
so that I may report to the State
Chairman the result of our work in
Lexington county. Unless I can
make my report by the 25th it will
not appear in the State Chairman's
report.
I trust shat all of the farmers will
aid the canvassers in this work, so
that we can make q encouraging re-
port for Lexington county.
Each can7assor will canvass his
township and secure all pledges
possible. Each person signing the
pledge will pay sum of twenty-five
cents. The canvasser is entitled to
half of the fee for his service and the
rest should accompany the pledge
list when it is returned to me.

canvass the township in which ne
lives, finds that it is impossible for
him to do go, please secure the SER
