BEES AND HONEY 



mii^ 



NEWMAN 



DADANT 



The above is the title of a new and revised edition of what for many years 

 was the book called "Bees and Honey," written by the late Thomas G. Newman, 

 editor of the American Bee Journal. Mr. C. P. Dadant, whose reputation as 

 a honey-producer and expert bee-keeper is unquestioned, revised the book re- 

 cently. The last edition consisted of 160 pages, but the revised edition, hereafter 

 to be known as "First Lessons in Bee-Keeping," contains nearly 200 pages, and 

 is perhaps the most generously illustrated bee-book of its size now published, as 

 it has over 1.50 pictures. 



" First Lessons in Bee-Keeping " is principally for beginners in the bee-busi- 

 ness, as its name indicates. It contains the foundation principles of bee-keeping 

 — just what every beginner ought to know in order to start right with bees. It 

 does not pretend to cover the subject in so thorough manner as do the higher- 

 priced and larger bee-books, such as "Langstroth on the Honey-Bee," Prof. 

 Cook's " Bee-Keepers' Guide," etc., but there are a large number of very impor- 

 tant preliminary principles that should be well understood by every one who 

 intends to take up bee-keeping, and this book is just the thing for that purpose. 



It is printed on e.xcellent paper, and well bound in pamphlet style. The out- 

 side appearance of the cover of this book, is entirely different from anything 

 yet seen on a bee-book. One can know without reading a word that it is some- 

 thing about bees, by simply looking at the cover, either front or back. 



We intend to present a copy to any person who sends us $1.00 for a year's 

 subscription in aeh'aiice to the American Bee Journal, whether a new or renewal 

 subscriber; but, of course, the booklet 7n«s/ *<• asAfrf /or when subscribing and 

 sending the dollar. 



The price of " First Lessons in Bee-Keeping," bound in strong paper, is 50 

 cents, postpaid. We would suggest that every Journal reader secure a copy of 

 this book in connection with your own advance renewal subscription, and then 

 show it to your neighbor bee-keepers, and get them to send in their subscription ; 

 or, if you wish to sell the book to your neighbors, we will make you a liberal 

 discount for such purpose. But be sure to get a copy of the book yourself, so as 

 to see what a beautv it is. Address,
