The C'hioafro-Nortliwe.stern Cou- 

 \eiitioii 



The ;51st animal meeting of the Chi- 

 cago-Northwestern Bee-Keepers' Asso- 

 ciation was held here in Chicago Nov. 

 30 and Dec. 1, as announced. There 

 "Were about 7.") bee-keepers present. 



which resulted in one of the best meet- 

 ings ever held by bee-keepers in this 

 city. There was scarcely a dull min- 

 ute from the beginning to the end. 

 .\mong those present were such excel- 

 lent convention goers and speakers as 

 Dr. C. C. Miller, M. M. Baldridge, J. L. 

 Anderson, Franklin Wilcox, Jacob 

 Huffman, C. A. Hatch, Wm. M. Whit- 

 ney, Miss Mathilde Candler, Mrs. R. B. 

 Holbrook, etc. The program consisted 

 mainly of question-box, but there were 

 several interesting papers by H. B. Tyr- 

 rell, of Michigan ; A. Coppin, of Illi- 

 nois ; C. A. Hatch, Jacob Hutifman, and 

 Miss Candler, of Wisconsin. So far as 

 we know, this is the only convention in 

 which the question-box is practically 

 the whole program ; and from what all 

 the members say, it is perhaps one of 

 the most interesting meetings of bee- 

 keepers held in this countrj'. 



The officers elected for 1911 are as 

 follows: President, George W.York, 

 of Chicago ; vice-president, Chas. G. 

 Macklin, of Morrison ; secretary-treas- 

 urer, Louis C. Dadant, of Hamilton. 

 Maurice G. Dadant, a brother of Louis 

 C, served as secretary of the meeting, 

 as the latter could not be present. 



A full shorthand report of the pro- 

 ceedings was taken, and it will be pub- 

 lished in connection with the Illinois 

 State convention report early in the 

 new- year. This volume of reports will 

 be bound in cloth, and contain possibly 

 150 to 200 pages. 



The dues of the Chicago-Northwest- 

 ern were raised from $1.00 a year to 

 $1.50, which amount will pay the dues 

 in the three associations — Chicago- 

 Northwestern, Illinois State, and also 

 the National. It is hoped that just as 

 many bee-keepers as possible within 

 the territory of the Chicago-North- 

 western Association will send their 

 dues of $1.50 to Mr. Dadant, so that 

 they may receive a copy of the valuable 

 report of the Chicago-Northwestern 

 convention. When one can become a 

 member of three such organizations as 

 mentioned above, for only $1.50, it 

 would seem that the applications should 

 be verv numerous. 



How About Your Advertising;? 



Have you anything to sell? -Any bees, 

 honey, hives, or anything else that you 

 think the readers of the American 

 Bee Journal might want to buy? If so, 

 why not offer it through our advertis- 

 ing columns? See rates in the first 

 column of the second page of every 

 number of the Bee Journal. We try to 

 keep our columns clean and free from 

 any dishonest advertising. 



Pearee Dletliotl of Bee-Keeping' 



This is an illustrated pamphlet (JxS'j 

 inches, just issued (July, 1910), "which 

 fully explains the plan of keeping bees 

 successfully in upper rooms, house at- 

 tics or lofts, whereby any one either in 

 city or country is enabled with only 

 a small expenditure of labor to get a 

 good supply of honey without coming 

 in contact with the bees, and without 

 having the bees swarm out and leave, 

 or being troubled from stings as you 

 work on one side of the wall and the 



bees on the other. This method also 

 tells the commercial bee-keeper how- 

 he can divide his bees when he wishes 

 to, instead of waiting and watching for 

 them to swarm. It can all be done on 

 the same day, or days if more than one 

 apiary, as the time required for tliis 

 operation is merely nominal, no swarms 

 issue and go away. These methods are 

 fully explained in this book, and how 

 to care for the bees on the Pearce 

 plan." 



We mail this pamphlet for 50 cents, 

 or club it with the .American Bee Jour- 

 nal one year — both for $.135. Send all 

 orders to the American Bee Journal, 

 14G VV. Superior St., Chicago, 111.

New Jersey Bee-Keepers' Con- 

 vention 



The regular annual meeting of the 

 New Jersey Bee-Keepers' Association 

 will be held in the State House, Tren- 

 ton, N. J., Wednesday, Dec. 28, 1910. 

 The program is not complete yet, but 

 an interesting one is being prepared. 

 A copy will be mailed to all members, 

 and to any one who will write for it. 

 All bee-keepers in the State and adjoin- 

 ing territory are invited. 



A good attendance is desired. Make 

 special effort to come. A new Foul 

 Brood Bill will be presented to the Leg- 

 islature again this winter, with bright 

 prospects of its being passed, and 

 signed by the Governor. The proposed 

 Bill will be read at this meeting and 

 discussed. 



Bring samples of 1910 honey and 

 beeswax, or anything new in the way 

 of bee-fixtures, for exhibition.
