The Bee-Keepers' Guide: 



Or Manual of the Apiary, 



By Prof. A. J. Cook. 



This 15th and latest edition of Prof. Cook's 

 magnificent book of 460 pages, in neat and 

 substantial cloth binding, we propose to give 

 away to our present subscribers, for the work 

 of getting NEW subscribers for the American 

 Bee Journal. 



A description of the book here is quite un- 

 necessary — it Is simply the most complete sci- 

 entific and practical bee-book published to- 

 day. Fully Illustrated, and all written in the 

 most fascinating style. The author is also 

 too well-known to the whole bee-world to re- 

 quire any introduction. No bee-keeper is 

 fully equipped, or his library complete, with- 

 out " The Bee-Keeper's Guide." 



For Two New i^ubscribers and 

 Your Own Renewal. 



Send us Two New Subscribers to the Bee 

 Journal and your own renewal (with $.3.00), 

 and we will mail yon a copy of Prof. Cook's 

 book free as a premium, and also a copy of 

 the 160-page " Bees and Honey " to each New 

 Subscriber. Prof. Cook's book alone is $1.25, 

 or we club it with the Bee Journal for a year 

 —both together for only $1.73. But surely 

 anybody can get only 2 new subscribers to 

 the Bee Journal for a year, and thus get the 

 book as a premium. Let everybody try for it. 

 Will you have one ?

Bee-Keepei-s" Pbotograpli.— We 



have now on hand a limited number of ex- 

 cellent photographs of prominent bee-keep- 

 ers — a number of pictures on one card. The 

 likeness of 49 of them are shown on one of 

 the photographs, and MY on the other. We 

 will send them, postpaid, for 50 cents each, 

 mailing from the 131 kind first ; then after 

 they are all gone, we will send the i'i kind. 

 So those who order first will get the most 

 " faces " for their honey.
