Woodstock despatch. -An announce- ment of not only scientific interest but of great commercial importance was made by Prof. Shutt, chemist or the Doniinion Experimental Farm at Ottawa, at this morning's session of the Canadian Beekeepers' Associa- tion. During last season an investiga- tion -had been made by Prof. Shutt to ascertain the differences in com- position between ripe and unripe honey, It having been held that only ripe honey sho.uld be put on the mar- ket. Unripe honey is the extract in its watery state, as deposited by the bee in the comb. Ripe honey is gener- ally admitted to be the product as taxen from the comb after the cap has been put on by the bee. It is held by many dealers that what is corn - =ply considered adulterated honey Is really the unripe proeuet of the bee taken from the cell before it has been eapped, the object being to get extra worth from the bees in refilling the empty cells. It having been generally consluered that the unripe honey con- tains the larger amount of water, samples of the capped and uncapped prouuct freak the experimental farm apiary were analyzed during last Beeson, to obtain data on this point, In the course of his remarks Piofes- sor Shutt said amid evidences of astonishment. among the members that results of his research showed that ordinary laboratory methods of estimating water were not applicable In honey analysis, and that conse- quently the percentages of water ae usually quoted were not to be re- garded as strictly reliable. Honey consisted Iargc;ly of two eugars, del - rose and leonlose, and in the ortlitiary course ol analysis the latter eufrereti annualal neage thatne the mawere decoineueltion, making Vie water carried by rail exceeded the total content appear higher than It really uau:age of the prevleus year by 10,- was. rad.

The results of the exhibition of On- tario honey at the Pan-American, which had been encouraged. by the Ontario Government, were extremely gratifying. Besides the gold medal for general excellenee of quality, thirty-three diplomas of merit were awarded to Canadian beekeepers. Treasurer Enright reported that the total receipts for tbe year were $757, and the expenditure $657. Secretary W. Cause reported that last spring the mimber of colonies in Ontario was 2,300, according to the reports sent in, and in the fall 8,1300, an average increase of 66 per cent. The average of comb honey taken from each colony was five pounds, and of extracted sixty-eight pounds. Tile meeting of the association next year will be held at Barrie. baequet was held in the evening, at which addresses were delivered by local gent/Gruen and members of the association.
