Tlie Bee-Reepers' Guide: 



Or Manual of the Apiary, 



By Prof. A. J. Cook. 



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

 magnificent book of 460 pag-es, in neat and 

 BubstantUtl cloth binding, we propose to givo 

 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." 



Given For 2 ]Ve\v l^iubscribers. 



The following offer is made to fkesent sub- 

 scribers only, and no premium is also given 

 to the two new subscribers — simply the Bee 

 Journal for one year : 



Send us Two New Subscribers to the Bee 

 Journal (with $2.00), and we will mail you a 

 copy of Prof. Cook's book free as a premi- 

 um. Prof. Cook's book alone sent for$l.vJ5. 

 or we club it with the Bee Journal for a year 

 —both together for only $1.75. 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 ?

of sweet clover seed, along the roads. It 

 vfill pay him more than any other honey- 

 producing plant. It will grow year in 

 and year out without any care, and will 

 continually spread itself. I have not 

 seen it grow in meadows, only occa- 

 sionally a stalk or so is seen here and 

 there. 



The only objection I have to sweet 

 clover is, that it does not bloom annually; 

 instead, its flowers appear every two 

 years. 



The American Bee Journal is instruc- 

 tive and satisfactorily reliable, and I 

 heartily recommend it to all who would 

 be successful bee-keepers.

Wiiitl siikI Fcert Mills.— There are 

 not many of our readers who appreciate the 

 amount of agricultural implement business 

 done with foreign countries. At the pres- 

 ent time there are large shipments of wind- 

 mills being made. The Challenge Wind- 

 Mill and Feed-Mill Co., of Batavia, 111., 

 writes us that they are making some very 

 heavy shipments to foreign countries, are 

 just now getting ready a carload for South 

 America, and also have on the floor at the 

 same time two shipments for Scotland and 

 one for South Africa. This concern Is 

 doing a remarkably good business. They 

 are patrons of our advertising columns, and 

 they have our endorsement as a thoroughly 

 reliable business firm, and in their manu- 

 facture every means is used to produce the 

 very best machinery. Write them for a 

 catalogue, mentioning this journal.
