 Queen-Rearing" 



This is G. M. Doolittle's master-piece on 

 rearing the best of queens in perfect accord 

 with Nature's way. It is for the amateur and 

 the veteran in bee-keeping. The A. I. Root 

 Co.. who ought to Itnow, say this about Doolit- 

 tle s queen-rearing book: 



It is practically the only comprehensive 

 book on queen-rearing now in print. It is looked upon by many as the foundation of mod- 

 ern methods of rearing queens wholesale." 



Mr. Doolittle's book also gives his method of producing comb honey, and the care of 

 same: his management of swarming, weak colonies, etc. It is a book of HR pages, and is 

 mailed at the following prices : Bound in cloth. 11.00 : bound in leatherette..75.cents.

Celluloid Queen-Buttons 



These are very pretty thintis for bee-keep- 

 ers or honey-sellers to wear on their coat- 

 lapels. They often serve to introduce the 

 subject of honey, which might frequently 

 lead to a sale. 



Note. — One bee-keeper writes: "I have 

 every reason to believe that it would be a 

 very good idea for every bee- 

 keeper to wear one [of these 

 buttons), as it will cause peo- 

 ple to ask questions about 

 I the busy bee, and many a 

 I conversation thus started 

 wind up with the sale of 

 more or less honey; at any 

 rate it would give the bee- 

 keeper a superior opportu- 

 nity to enlighten many a person in regard to 

 honey and oees." 



The picture shown above is a reproduc- 

 tion of a motto queen-button that we offer 

 to bee-keepers. It has a pin on the under- 

 side to fasten it.

The Emerson Binder is perhaps the best 

 and most convenient of all Binders that are 

 made for holding the copies of various pub- 

 lications as they come from week to week or 

 month to month. Those we have for the 

 American Bee Journal are stiff mottled 

 pasteboard with cloth back. They are v-ery 

 strong and durable. One of these Binders 

 will hold the American Bee Journal for 3 

 years, and the price is only 75 cents, post- 

 paid, or we will send a Binder with a year s 

 subscription to the American Bee Journal— 

 both for 51.60.

50,000 Copies "Honey as a Heahh-Food" 

 To Help Increase the Demand for Honey 



We have had printed an edition of over 50,000 copies of the 16-page pamphlet on 

 Honey as a Health-Food." It is envelope size, and just the thing to create a local demand 



for honey. „ ,„ ■ v r> r> /-< 



The first part of it contains a short article on " Honey as Food, written by Ur. t.,. O. 

 Miller. It tells where to keep honey, how to liquefy it. etc. The last is devoted to "Honey 

 Cooking Recipes" and "Remedies Using Honey." It should be widely circulated by those 

 selling honey. The more the people are educated on the value and uses of honey as a food, 

 the more honey they will buy. .
