THE REVIEW. 



?? 



THE BEE KEEPERS' REVIEW for Dec. has four 

 extra pages— twenty in all. Upon the first page is 

 a brief history of the " Review," also an excellent 



PORTRAIT OF ITS EDITOR 



—one of those beautiful Ives reproductions. The 

 special topic of this issue is: "Sections and their 

 Adjustment on the Hives," and it is handled by 

 such men as Jas. Heddon, Dr. C. C. Miller, R. L. 

 Taylor, Oliver Foster, and Dr. G. L. Tinker. A copy 

 of this issue will be cheerfully sent free to all who 

 apply. Price of the " Review " 50 cts. a year. 



The Production of Comb Honey. 



Although this neat little book contains only 45 

 pages, it furnishes as much practical, valuable in- 

 formation as is often found in a book of twice its 

 size. It is " boiled down." 



It begins with taking the bees from the cellar and 

 goes over the ground briefly, clearly and concisely, 

 until the honey is off the hives ; touching upon the 

 most important points; and especially does it teach 

 when, where and how foundation can be used to 

 the best advantage; when combs are preferable, 

 and when it is more profitable to allow the bees to 

 build their own combs. Price of the book, 25 cts. 



SPECIAL OFFERS. 



For 65 cts. we will send the Review one year and 

 "The Production of Comb Honey." For $1.00 we 

 will send all the numbers of the Review for the 

 past year (1888), the Review for this year (1889) and 

 the " Production of Comb Honey;" or, for the same 

 amount ($1.00), we will send the Review for two 

 years from Jan. 1st, 1889, and "The Production of 

 Comb Honey." Stamps taken, either U. S. or Can- 

 adian. Address ltfdb
