GLEANINGS IN BEE CULTURE. 



Apr. 15 



Typographical changes in the 

 Bee-keeper's Review, beginning 

 with the April issue, will add 

 much to the beauty of that jour- 

 nal. The glazed, shiny paper, so 

 difficult to read unless the light 

 strikes it just right, has been laid 

 aside for a soft, white paper that 

 gives to the printing a clean, 

 tasty, tempting look. 



Hereafter, the frontispieces, in most of 

 cases, will be printed with colored inks, in- 

 stead of somber black. The one for April 

 is in dark green, and shows a century 

 apiary — one established 100 years ago. 



The cover is a light drab, the front page 

 being printed in two colors — a dark, rich 

 brown and Milori blue. 



One feature of this issue is that it con- 

 tains elcveji pages of helpful, encouraging, 

 suggestive editorials. 



Send ten cents for this issue, and with it 

 will be sent two other late but different is- 

 sues, and the ten cents may apply on any 

 subscription sent in during the year. A 

 coupon will be sent entitling the holder to 

 the Review for ^0 cts.
