AMERICAN BEE JOURNAU

for the temperature got up to 52° to" 

 day, and it was calm. I built a cellar 

 under the house this summer, which is 

 as near perfection as it can be under a 

 house. But I have come to the conclu- 

 sion that Mr. Doolittle's plan of a bee- 

 cellar is the right one. I read his ideas 

 of underground wintering of bees on 

 page 622 of the American Bee Journal, 

 which I think are about right.

N. E. Ohio and N. "W. Pa. Convention. 



The convention of the Northeastern 

 Ohio and Northwestern Pennsylvania 

 Bee-Keepers' Association held at Corry, 

 Pa., on Nov. 21 and 22, was poorly at- 

 tended, there being no one present from 

 Ohio. The sessions were of much inter- 

 est and profit from first to last. On 

 account of the non-attendance of the 

 Ohio members, the convention adjourned 

 sine die. The organization did not break 

 up — it voted to retain the old officers. 



The Northwestern Pennsylvania As- 

 sociation was organized to meet next 

 year, at the same date as this. It is 

 officered as follows : President, D. A. 

 Dewey, of Columbus, Pa.; Vice Pres., C. 

 D. Freeman ; Secretary and Treasurer, 

 Geo. Spitler, of Mosiertown, Pa.
