tracted. I get 8 cents for basswood, 

 and 7 for buckwheat, and could sell 

 more if I had it. The bees are in splen- 

 did condition this fall. 



I could get all the bees I wanted this 

 fall by taking them out of the hives. I 

 took bees out of nine hives; a 10-frame 

 hive averaging a little better than six 

 pounds of bees. 



1 see in the Bee Journal that salt and 

 water cures the "nameless" bee-dis- 

 ease. A number of years ago I tried 

 that remedy, and it was a " sure cure " 

 for me. They got out of the hive as 

 soon as they could, aud it killed them ! 



There is a good prospect for honey an- 

 other year; the white clover has come 

 up strong. Chas. Blackbubn.

THE ''NOVELTY" POCKET-KNIFE 



iiij ^ame and Address Pot on the Knife. 



GEO. W. YORK, 



CHICAGO, ILLS. 



Yonr Name on tbe Knife.— When orderlnfr, be sure to say Jnst what Name aof 

 Address you wish put on the Knife. 



The Novelty Knife la Indeed a novelty. The novelty lies In the handle. It Is made 

 osautlfu'.lj' of indestruitible celluloid, which is as transparent as glasB. Underneath the 

 celluloid, on one side of the handle Is placed an American Bee Journal reminder, and on tbt 

 other side, nsime and residence of the Subscriber. 



The material entering- into this celebrated knife Is of the very best quality; the bladee 

 aie handforged out of the very finest English razor-steel, and we warrant every blade. The 

 holsters are made of German silver, and will never rust or corrode. The rivets are hardeneo 

 German silver wire: the linings are plate brass: the back springs of Sheffield spring steel, anc 

 the finish of handle as described above. It will last a lifetime, with proper usage. 



Why purchase the Novelty Knife? In case a ?ood knife is lost, the chances are, 

 the iwner will never ree jverit; but if the Novelty is lost, having name and address of owner 

 the finder will return it; otherwise to try to destroy the name and address, would destroy the 

 knife. If traveling, and you meet with a serious accident, and are so fortunate as to have one 

 of the Novelties, your pocket knife will serve as as an identifier; and in case of death, yoiLt 

 relatives will at once be apprised of the accident. 



How appropriate this knife is for a Christmas. New Year or birthday present I Wha'. 

 more lasting memento could a mother give to a son, a wife to a husband, a sister to a brother, 

 a lady to a gentleman, or vice versa, a son to a mother, a husband to a wife, abrothertoasistej 

 jr a gentleman to a lady— the knife having the name of the recipient on one side ? 



The accompanying cut gives a faint idea, but cannot fully convey an exact represents 

 tion of this beautiful knife, as the " Novelty " must be seen to be appreciated. 



Hot? to Get this Valnahle Knife.— We send itpostpali. for SI. , or give It as & 

 Premium to the one sending us three new Snbscribera to the Bee JorTRNAL (with f .3.00.1, 

 and we will also send to each new name a copy of the Premium Edition of the book " Bees an<;
