the tool to perfection. I iilso use it to plant corn. Tarn well 

 pleased with the planter. S.S. Fetherolf. 



Era, O., Jan. 8. 



We sold over 200 of ihese planters last season ; and, 

 notwithslanding mj' invitation, only three people as 

 above have made any reply. My impression is that 

 friend Simon did not' get the hang of the tool or else 

 he is too old a man to learn new tricks no disrespect 

 meant by this. If he had given it to a good stout hoy, 

 and the boy had fnith enough to follow his instructirtis, 

 his verdict might have been more like that of the other 

 two friends. I am glad to tell our customers that, by 

 having a ver}' large lot of these planters made up ilur- 

 ing the dull season, we can, this j'ear. make the low 

 price of GO cts. each; three or more, 55 cts. each; half a 

 dozen or more, an even 50 cts. A descriptive circular 

 will be sent on application 



TO NEW jer.sk;y beekeepers 

 Several of our progressive States have one or two 

 bee-keepers' associations, and New Jer.sey should be 

 able to place one to her credit with several hundred 

 active bee-men If time was ever opportune for an as- 

 sociation, with a menibershipof several hundred, that 

 time is now. The New Jersey Bee-keepers' Associa- 

 tion was organized January 11. 1902. The next regu- 

 lar meeting will take place .Saturdav, March 1, at office 

 of Mr. J. H. M. Cook, 62 Cortland Street. New York. 

 Kvery bee keeper is cordialh' invited to be present. 

 It does not matter whether you own half a dozen col- 

 onies of bees or a hundred dozen, you are welcome to 

 join us in a cause that you know is worthy of advance- 

 ment. From present indications the regular annual 

 meeting of our association will be held at • renton this 

 fall, during the .Slate Fair, at which place almost every 

 person in our .Slate who is interested in rural pursuits 

 is gener llv found.
