AUGUST.
If you have a market near home, the surplus honey in boxes will sell very well the last of this month, before honey is brought from away; but if you are to ship a great distance, the weather will be too warm in this month. Keep a close watch that the boxes you have taken off do not get wormy. Eternal vigilance is the price of success.
Keep boxes on your hives through this month and next for surplus honey. Keep down the grass and weeds from about the hives.
