Tlie distinctive features of the Bee - Keepers' Review are those of reviewing current 

 apicultural literature (pointing out errors and faUacies and allowing nothing of value to pass 

 unnoticed) and the making of " special numbers "—those in which special topics are discussed by 

 the best bee-keepers of the country. If you wish for the cream of the other journals, already 

 skimmed and dished up, and to learn the views of the most experienced bee-keepers upon the 

 unsolved, apicultural problems of the day, read the Review. Published monthly at f 1.00 a year.

As the supply of volumes I and II is quite limited, the price is five cents a copy, exept for the Jan. 

 1989 No., which is twenty cents, there being only a few copies left. Of volume III there is a fair 

 supply, and the price is four cents a copy. With volume IV the Review was enlarged and the price 

 raised to $1.00. Copies of volume IV are eight cents each. Remember that each number is, in one 

 sense, a little pamphlet giving the views of the best bee-keepers upon the topic named. 



A^^H_A.T OTHERS S^Y. 



^ O. H. TOWrtSE/HD, Alamo, Mich., writes : 



" never waited here for any other 



paper to be read until the Review commenced 

 coming." 



ARTHUR C /^lUUER, Providence, R. I., 



writes that ■ tliere is no piper the coming of 

 wliicli I look forward to, or miss so much when 

 over-due, as that of the Rkview, and I take 

 nearly all the bee papers published in the Eng- 

 lish language, as well as several other oeriocS- 

 cals." 



O. 5. COA^RTOrt, Goshen, Ind., writes: 

 •'The Revikw lias tict-u worth— w<-l]. I will not 

 attempt to placi' a valiii' upon it— ))ut this much 

 I must say, it is looked for days before its time 

 and no matter how many other bee papers or 

 even letters are received at the bame time, the 

 Review is opened first." 



S. Pi. RUSSELL, New Market, Canada, 

 says: 'lam pieas-ed with the Review, as you 

 liave such a happy manner of stating practical 

 facts without so much of this ' what may have 

 been done, or what we might have tried if our 

 patient hail not died.' " 



C. K. BIXLER, Hoyt, Iowa, writes as fol- 

 lows : " 1 think the Review away ahead of any 

 bee paper I read, and I read several. It is cer- 

 tainly pure and clean and free from mud-sling- 

 ing ; while, from a literary point of view, it 

 stands above every other bee paper. I was glad 

 when Dr. Miller induced you to give up that "we." 



When the Review started I thought it was to 

 be simply a Heddon hive circular, but I am glad 

 to say I was mistaken. You sometimes give the 

 hive a lift, but such action is all right if the hive 

 is the " ne plus ultra," which I am beginning to 

 believe."
