 & St Paul Railway, at a low price and on very favora-

 farm when you can buy one much cheaper than you

An Old Friend. 



Among the very first of the incubator and brooder 

 concerns of the country to advertise in our columns 

 was the " Reliable," of Quincy, 111. Although a num- 

 ber of years has passed since their first advertisement 

 appeared in our paper, there has not been a year since 

 that first time when they have not been with us dur- 

 ing the regular advertising season. It affords us, 

 therefore, more than usual pleasure to state that they 

 will advertise with us again this season, and their an- 

 nouncement appears on another page of this issue. 

 Our relationship with these people has been most 

 pleasant through all these years ; and while we feel 

 that our paper has been the means of doing them 

 much good, we also know that they have done much 

 good to our readers. The Reliable goods ate reliable 

 in works and results as well as in name, and those of 

 our readers who contemplate the purchase of ma- 

 chines of this class can do no better than to buy the 

 time-te,sted old Reliable. Their 20th Century Catalog 

 is, as usual, a work of great value. Writethem to day 

 for a copy. Address Reliable Incubator & Brooder 

 Co , Quincy, 111., and mention this paper.

Books for Bee=keepers and Others. 



Any of these books on which postage is not given 

 will be forwarded by mail postpaid, on receipt of price. 



In buying books, as every thing el.se, we are liable 

 to di.sappointment if we make a purcha.se without see- 

 ing the article. Admitting that the book-seller could 

 read all the books he offers, as he has them for sale, it 

 were hardly to be expected he would be the one to 

 mention all the faults, as well as good things about 

 a book. We very much desire that those who favor us 

 with their patronage shall not be disappointed and 

 therefore we are g&ing to try to prevent it by mention- 

 ing all the fault-i, so far as we can, that the purchaser 

 may know what he is getting. In the following list, 

 books that we approve we have marked with a * ; 

 those we especially approve, ** ; those that are not up 

 to times, f ; books that contain but little matter for 

 the price, large type, and much space between the 

 lines, I ; foreign, §. The bee-books are all good. 



As many of the bee-books are sent with other goods 

 by freight or express, incurring no postage, we give 

 prices separately. You will notice that you can judge 

 of the size of the books very well by the amount re- 

 quired for postage on each.
