Michigan Dairymen will hold their an- 

 nual convention in Jackson, Feb. 27th, 

 28th and March 1st, and it has been 

 suggested that the Michigan bee-keep- 

 pers hold their annual convention at 

 the same time and place, in order to 

 take advantage of the reduced rates. 

 Suggestions will be in order.

Lectures on Bees'and Honeys before 

 day and Sunday schools, might be 

 made to do much good. Reference has 

 been made in these columns before in 

 regard to the work done in this line b3' 

 Mr. Hershiser, of Buffalo, and, from 

 hand bills that have just come to hand, 

 I see that Mr. John C. Frohliger, of 

 Cincinnati, Vice President of the Ham- 

 ilton Countj' Bee-Keepers' Association, 

 has been doing some work in this line. 

 In his lecture, Mr. Frohliger uses 

 part of a hive of bees. 



Wooden Toothpicks are used by 

 Walter Hanner for giving prospective 

 customers a taste of hone}\ In one 

 corner of his canvassing case he has a 

 holder filled with toothpicks, and one 

 of these is thrust into a bottle of thick, 

 ripe honey, when enough will adhere 

 to give quite a generous taste to the 

 recipient. One of these can be given to 

 each member of the family, children 

 and all. Every one getting a taste of 

 honey on one of these new clean pieces 

 of wood feels sure that it has never 

 been in some one else's mouth, while 

 the amount of honey given is just about 

 enough to whet the appetite for more. 



A Receipt is not sent by magazines 

 and journals when a renewal is re- 

 ceived. Upon the address label, pasted 

 upon the wrapper in which the paper 

 is mailed, appears the date to which 

 the subscription has been paid. When 

 a renewal is received, this date is put 

 ahead to correspond with the pay- 

 ment. If the date on the label of your 

 Review-wrapper is "Dec. U5" it shows 

 that j'our subscription is paid to that 

 date. When 3'ou send in your dollar 

 as a renewal, look at the date upon tlie 

 label attached to the nexf copy that 

 you receive. If it says "Dec. Ob, ' that 

 shows that 3'our dollar was received, 

 and answers ever^^ purpose of a receipt. 

 If 3'our next paper rafter sending in a 

 renewal does not show this change of 

 date, then make inquiries at once. By 

 looking at this date upon your wrap- 

 per-label, 3'ou can tell at any time the 

 date to which your subscription has 

 been paid.

Notice the change of dates and place 

 for holding the National Convention 

 The change of dates was made because 

 the Fat Stock Show was postponed two 

 weeks, the reason given being "the in- 

 abilit3' of the builders of the amphi- 

 theater to secure structural steel for 

 the same;" the managers did not wish 

 to hold the show out of doors, hence 

 the dela3^ There will now be no re- 

 duced railroad rates d uring the first 

 week in December, and, as it would be 

 suicidal to attempt the holding of a 

 convention without reduced rates, the 

 dates have been put off until Dec. 19th, 

 20th and 21st. 



The place of meeting has been 

 changed because it was feared that the 

 accommodations at the Revere House
