Weather and Bees in Maryland. 



We have been having a cold snap here 

 since Jan. 28, but it seems this morning it 

 will be warmer. The weather had been very 

 warm thru January up to last Sunday 

 evening — no snow with the exception of 

 about one inch Dec. 31. The bees were do- 

 ing well on the summer stands up to the 

 cold snap. The coldest was yesterday 

 morning, 6" above zero. L. A. Hammond.

BUY THE BEST. 



If you want the best low-down wag'on you 

 should bu.v tlie Electric Handy Wagron. It is 

 the best because it is made of the best material; 

 the best broad-tired Electric Wheels; best sea- 

 soned white hickory axles; all other wood parts 

 of the best seasoned white oak. The front and 



All Publishers Not Swindlers. 



I was very much surprised the other day 

 to hear a farmer friend say that such and 

 such a paper was publisbt by a gang of 

 swindlers. I at once hastened to correct 

 his erroneous idea, but he stuck to it. 

 When I pinned him down as to why he 

 thought so, it developt that he had sent the 

 paper a dollar for a year's subscription and 

 had never heard anything from it. I askt 

 him if he had ever written the paper about 

 it, and he replied : 



" No, what's the use ? If they stole my 

 dollar they wouldn't answer my letter." 



Now, this is all wrong. Most men who 

 are doing business try to do it " on the 

 square." If they don't, the postofBce offi- 

 cials soon get after them. If you don't hear 



rear^hounds are made from the best auffle steel, 

 which is neater, stronger and in every way bet- 

 ter than wood. Well painted in red and var- 

 nisht. Extra length of reach and extra long- 

 standards supplied without additional cost 

 when requested. This wag-on is guaranteed to 

 carry 4,00ii pounds anywhere. Write the Elec- 

 tric Wheel Co.. Box 16, Quincy, 111., for their 

 new catalot^--, which fully describes this wagon, 

 their famous Electric Wheels, and Electric Feed 

 Cookers. Please mention the Bee Journal.
