To anyone not now a subscriber to the Bee-keepers' 

 Review, who sends $1.00 for it for 1896, and says that he 

 wants them, I will send 12 back nuuibers. free. Tliis is 

 done to induce th<ise who are stranger.s to the Review to 

 become acquainted with its merits. To hold old subscrib- 

 ers is not difficult; and, to get the Review into the hands 

 of new men, that they, too, may, in time, become old sub- 

 cribers, is worth an extra effort, hence tliis offer. The 

 back numbers of the Review, most of tliem, h:tve a value 

 peculiarly their own; they are "special topic" numbers, 

 'i'hat is, each number is really a little book in which may 

 be found the views of the best bee-keepers iipon some im- 



portant apiarian subject. They are as valuable now as 

 _ _ when published. Of some of these issues there are sever- 

 al hundred, of others not moie th;in a dozen, and in flliing- these orders 1 must be allowed to make the se- 

 lection, but no two copies will I'C alike. For 2.5 cts. extra the 5t)-ct. book. Advanced Bee Culture, will be 

 Included. The Review for 1896, 12 back numbers, and the book, all for only $1.25.
