EVOLVING PLAN TO
MARKET OUR HONEY
One Thing to Secure Crop and
Another to Dispose of 1t to
the Best Advantage.
CRx f. G. HERMAN

After the honey harvest is over, we
look proudly at the piles of nice white
cases with such beautiful, clean look
ing combs shining through the glass,
and realize that all that care and skill
can do to make 1t attractive has been
done, we come face to face with that
momentous question, What shall we
do with it,"
The old, time-honored method of
bundling the whole crop off to some
city commission house, selected by
guess usually, to get returns for 1t
perhaps, sometime, has proved so un-
satisfactory that we have all been
working at this vexing problem
which has not kept place with other
improvements in agriculture. l have
learned from experience that it is one
thing to secure a crop of honey and
quite another to dispose of it to the
best advantage.
Much has been written and said in
favor of developing home market,
and of every man selling his own
honey. If a man has good home
market or can develop one, or If he
has a good salesman, such a course
is alright but the best locality for pro-
ducing honey often, very poor one
for selling, and the best bee-keeper
is sometimes the poorest kind Of a
salesman. In such cases 1t is wisdom
to seek distant markets, and to en-
ploy somebody to do the selling.
My own experience with commission
men has been very pleasant and sat
isfactory, but l have never sent any
honey to any firm that had no estab-
lished reputation for honesty and fair
dealing.
The man who is on the spot usually
can tell better than anyone else as to
when It is best to sell at certain
price. AS rule, there is more salts
faction in making an out and out sale.
Better prices, however, are sometimes
realized when honey is sold on COM
mission, as the man who buys and
pays cash down is pretty careful, not
to pay too much.
| am very much impressed as to the
necessity of disposing of our honey
near home as the best and surest way
of maintaining prices, and the good
of all concerned / am sure that nine
tenths of all the beekeepers could get
more money for their honey II only
they would drum up home trade in
stead of shipping to congested city.
In disposing of my crop | have had
the best success while working up
my home market. For the same kind

green hemstitched chiffon is gathered
over a bride that fastens in the front
under a tiny fiat bow. This bride is
made of the satin which appears in
the crown. Small flat bows of this
satin are placed at each side of the
back at the termination of the coronet.
A flower form and foliage are ap-
piled to the coronet at the left. They
are made of red and green silk braid.
This is charming model, over
which a veil can be thrown when need

nothing to crush, and no chance of it's
blowing away. No hatpin-that bane
of motor hats-is needed, for the
small bride takes it's place.
The second hat consists of g
straight coronet and soft crown of silk
braid in bright, gay colors. A large
buckle is made of the braid over a
buckram form. The long veil in smoke

SAW FAMOUS BATTLE.
Centenary of Waterloo Recalls
an Interesting Fact.
sylvanus Thayer of Braintree, Mass.g
Afterwards Brigadier General in
u. S. Army Witnessed CeIe-
brated Fight.

New York.-Plans for the one hum
dredth celebration of the battle of
Waterloo were begun a few days ago
| by the British and Belgian govern
ments. 1t is an interesting, although
almost forgotten fact, that with the
British army, during that memorable
battle, young man from Braintree,
Mass, served as a military observer
for the army Of the then young re-
public of the United States of Amer
lea.
Having recently been breyetted
major in the United States army for
gallantry and meritorious service DUR
ing the war of 1912, Sylvanus Thayer
was attached to the staff of Gen. Ar
thur Wellesley, the duke of Yelling
ton, during the battle of Waterloo, and
was studying that battle with trained
eyes
Later Mai. Thayer rode into PARE
on the staff of the duke of Yelling
ton when the capital of France fell
as a result of the defeat administered
to Napoleon few days before.
From observations made during the
Napoleonic wars and from study OF
general military affairs in various
parts of Europe, Major Thayer came
back to the United States and be-
gan a work in the interest of the
United States army, which resulted in
the establishment of the present MILF
tary academy at West Point as o
training school for officers of the
army.
To this day Major Thayer. who aft
erwards became a brigadier general
is known as "the Father of West
Point" and a statue to his memory
on the military academy grounds con-
tains that sentence on it's base.
General Thayer was born in South
Braintree June 9, 1885. The house in
which he was born is numbered now

built in 1850. 1t is still in a fine

tree. 1t is occupied by Joseph M.
Foster, veteran of the Civil war and
a member of the Braintree Grand
Army post which is named for General
Thayer.
The birthplace of General ThayeI
is but short distance from the
birthplace of a famous sailor whom
Braintree gave to the country, the late
Rear Admiral George f. F. Wilde.
General Thayer was educated at
Dartmouth college and was graduated
from the first military school in 1908.
He stood among the highest in his
class and chose the engineering
branch of the service.
He was chief engineer of the &c.
lenses along the Niagara river, on
Lake Champlaih and at Norfolk, Va,
during the War of 1912. In 1913 he
was promoted to captaincy and in
1915 he was brevetted major for dis
tinguished service during the war.
That year he was sent to Europe
by the government to examine mill
tary works and schools and to OBJ
serve the armies that were gathering
for what proved the final conflict with
Napoleon.
On his return to America General
Thayer was appointed superintendent
of the military academy, and held
that position till 1874. During that
time he established the present West
Point school, which has become fa
nous all over the world
From 1888 to 1863 General Thayer
was in charge of the construction OF
harbo- defenses in and around Bos.
ton, and Fort Warren, one Of the best
known military defenses Of Boston
harbor, was planned and built by him.
In 1863, then a man OF seventy.
eight, General Thayer was brevetted
brigadier general by President Lin
coin. This appointment was made
May 81, and the next day General
Thayer was retired from the service.
He died in South Braintree Septem-
Der 7, 1872.
On his death General Thayer be-
queathed 100000 for the endowment
of the academy to provide a. place OF
education for the boys and girls of all
parts of the old town Of Braintree, in

General Thayer's body was bur

where it was buried November s,
1877 near the monument erected to
his memory on the grounds of the mil.
itary academy.

Don't listen to the groom or the

horse SO affected will more than likely

fine stallion, many years ago. This
horse had apparently good eyes him,
self, but his sire, great winner on
the turf In his day, was blind. A
large percentage of the colts of his
son that had apparently good eyes,
went totally blind at an early age,
and that from four to six years.
If you own a mare that has crooked
hooks, or in other words, who has cat
hams, as the saying is, you can be
pretty sure that her colt will fall heir
to the same blemish, and therefore
will be most likely to develop curbs
or spavins. either bog or bone.
On bad, rainy days during the win
ter season, when it is impossible to
work the teams out of doors, you
should go over all the harness, oil and
repair it, then when the bright and
sunshiny days arrive, you will be in
shape to go to work in the fields, as
sured of the fact that you will not
have to stop for repairs for broken
harness.
The stallion owner takes many
risks. In the first place, he has to
depend in a large degree on the abb
solute honesty of the farmer. The
writer stood both stations and jacks
for some years, and knows whereof
he speaks. If your mare gets in foal,
and by any mistake loses her colt,

either by Sinking, or any other cause,
pay your money to the stallion owner
like man, and don't try to make him
| lose by your mistake. Remember that
he is at considerable expense in send
ing this stallion around the country
during the breeding season and that
he has probably paid big price for
this same stallion. Then don't forget
that he has to keep his horse all dur
ing the off season, whether he has
made money or not.
Many man has given up the stand
ing of really first-class stations just
because his farmer friends have not
done their part to encourage him in
the proper way, and that way means
that you must do your part, Mr.. Farm
er, if you want the stallion owners
of your section to do their part.
Look out for the feet of the jack.
Any one familiar with this animal
will know that their feet are liable
to grow out of all shape if they arc
not attended to regularly. 1t seems to
be trait of the mule family to have
bad hind feet, that is if they are not
trimmed at stated intervals. Not all,
of course, but many of them are so
afflicted.
The writer once stood a jack, and
by the way, he was a good one, and
there are a lot of serviceable mules
in this section that could claim him
as sire. But the hind feet of this
same jack had to be trimmed regular
ly or he could not make his trip from
stand to stand.

/ save by being my own salesman.
Besides, the home market does not
grade honey so closely as commission
men do. In my neighborhood only
two grades are recognized-the dark
and the white with a difference of
only two cents between them.
When working a new town, if you
succeed in getting an order from one
of the best grocers, then go to his
competitor and tell him of it. Talk to
him as a drummer should and the
chances are that you will get du-
plicate order from him, as he can
well furnish his customers the same
article at the same price.
If you cannot get sales started in
this way, leave crates with two or
three reliable grocers, seeing that they
keep them in a prominent place where
people entering the stores will be sure
to see, and you will soon get trade
started
The more places your honey is kept
on sale the more will be sold, espe-
cially if you put it in nice, clean, at
tractive packages. After the home
market has been supplied, and there
is some honey left, one may have
to send it to the large cities to be sold
on commission, but | would do it only
as a last resort.
Lastly comes the question of when
to sell, and it is the most puzzling Of
any When there is large crop the
tendency of prices is downward.
Knowing this, there is a tendency
to rush the honey into market when
it becomes known that there is a
bountiful crop. This puts the prices
down still further. This matter of
when to sell is one of those questions
that each man must decide for him.
self If there is a short crop general
ly and prices are advancing gradual
ly, it certainly seems safe to hold
honey reasonable length Of time. AS
a rule, however, / would not hold
honey until winter Marketing honey
is one of the most essential parts Of
beekeeping. A failure in the honey
crop means the loss of part Of your
years labor, but If you sell your prod
uct at loss your entire years labor
is in vain.
