The Novelty Pocket = Knife. 



Your Name and Address on one side— Three Bees on the other side. 



OWARD M. MELBEE, 



HONEYVILLE, O. 



[This Cut is the r'CLi- Size of the Knife.] 



Your Name on the Knife.— Wh«n ordering, be sure to say just what name and 

 address you wish put on the Knite. 



The Novelty Knife is indeed a novelty The novelty lies lu the handle. It is 

 made beautifully of indestructible celluloid, which is as transparent as glass. Un- 

 derneath the celluloid, on one side of the handle is placed the name and residence of 

 the subscriber, and on the other side pictures of a Queen, Drone, and Worker, as 

 shown here. 



The Material entering into this celebrated knife is of the very best quality; 

 the blades are hand-forged out of the very finest English razor-steel, and we war- 

 rant every blade. The bolsters are made of German silver, and will never rust or 

 corrode. The rivets are hardened German silver wire; the linings are plate brass; 

 the back springs of Sheffield spring-steel, and the finish of the handle as described 

 above. It will last a last-time, with proper usage. 



Why Own the Novelty Knife ? In case a good knife is lost, the chances are the 

 owner will never recover it; 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 ad- 

 dress would destroy the knife. If traveling, and you meet with a serious accident, and are so tor- 

 tunate as to have one of the " Novelt;es," your Pocket-Knife will serve as an identifier; and in 

 case of death, your relatives will at once be notified of the accident. 



How appropriate this knife is for a present! What more lasting memento could a mother 

 give to a son; a wife to a husband, a sister to a brother, or a lady to a gentleman, the knife having 

 the name of the recipient on one side? 



The accompanying cu( gives a faint idea, but cannot fully convey an e.xact representation of 

 thisbeautiful knife, as the " Novelty " must be seen to be appreciated. 



' How to Get this Valuable Knife. -We send it postpaid for »1.2S, or give it as a Premium to the 

 one sending us i riBEE new subscribers to the Bee Journal (with $3.00.) We will club the Novelty 

 Knife and the Bee Journal tor one year, both for $1.90.

this fall I doubled them up until now I 

 have 15 colonies. I secured only 1.50 

 pounds of honey. I think I vpill let 

 thetn swarm after this. 



It is very warm here now, and bees 

 are Hying every day. 



On page 698 Iowa asks how to make 

 a bee-feeder. This is the way I made 

 one : I took a 2x4 16-inch board, sawed 

 notches in it, and nailed '4 -inch strips 

 on the sides, then pQured hot wax into 

 the cracks. I put a cover on it, and 

 bored a hole V inch from the top of the 

 feeder, in which I put a tin spout. 

 Then I set it in the top of a super, and 

 filled up the super with chaff. Next 

 spring I can feed by just taking the 

 cover off. D. H. Keller.

My bees came thru last winter alive, 

 but few in a hive. The cold weather 

 the last of April and all thru May was 

 a stunner, but most of my 85 colonies 

 survived and filled their hives with 

 apple-bloom honey and brood, so they 

 were in fair condition for white clover
