Hastings' Pertection Feeder. — 



This excellent Feeder will hold 3 quarts, 

 and the letting down of the feed is regulated 

 by a thumb-screw. The cap screws securely 

 on. It is easy to regulate — either a spoonful 

 or a quart— and that amount can be given 

 in an hour or a day, as desired. By it the 

 food can be given where it is most needed- 

 just over the cluster. Not a drop need be 

 lost, and no robber bees can get at it. A 

 single one can be had for 40 cents, or a 

 •dozen for 83.50, and it can be obtained at 

 this office. Postage 10 cents extra. 



International Bee-Confention. 



— The Pamphlet Report of the Columbus, 

 Ohio, Bee-Convention can be obtained at 

 this office, by mail, postpaid, for 25 cents. 

 This pamphlet contains the new bee-songs 

 and words, as well as a portrait of the 

 President. Bound up with the history of 

 the International Society, and a full report 

 of the Detroit, Indianapolis and Chicago 

 conventions, for 50 cents, postpaid.
