 plicit order is received by the publisher 

 for their discontinuance, and until pay- 

 ment of all arrearages is made as required 

 by law. 



Please write names and post-office ad- 

 dress very plain. Very often men forget 

 to give their post-office, and quite often a 

 man dates his letter from tlie place where 

 he lives, when the paper is to be sent to 

 $ome other office. 



Secure a Choice Qaeen. 



We will hereafter send a choice tested 

 Italian queen as a premium, to any one 

 who will send us Jive subscribers to the 

 American Bee Journal, with $10.00. 

 This premium, which gives a $5.00 queen 

 for five subscribers, will pay any one for 

 taking some trouble to extend the circula- 

 tion of the American Bee Journal. 

 Premium queens will in every case be 

 warranted. 



To Poultry Men. — For two subscrib- 

 ers and $4, in advance, we will send post- 

 paid, a copy of A. J. Hill's work on 

 "Chicken Cholera," as a premium. See 

 his advertisement in this number. Those 

 wishing this premium must mention it 

 when sending their subscriptions. 



J!:^* Those having anything of interest 

 to bee-keepers are invited to send a sam- 

 ple for exhibition in our office. Send de- 

 scription and directions for using, and also 

 give us prices.

 so that we can supply Hives of any kind,

 as well as hives, extractors, and other 

 apiarian supplies, at the regular market

When your time runs out, if you do 

 not wish to have the American Bee 

 Journal continue its visits, just drop us 

 a Postal Card, and say so — and we will 

 stop it instauter. If j'ou do not do this, 

 you may rest assured that it will be sent 

 on regularly. Let all " take due notice 

 and govern themselves accordingly." 



Send Postage Stamps: — As silver 

 takes the place of fraciiDUiil currency, 

 and sometliiiig convenient to enclose in 

 letters fur small amounts is needed, we 

 suggest postage 8tami)S of 1 cent and 3 

 cent dcuomiujitious. If folded carefully 

 to aboijt the size of the envelope, they 

 will come oven more securely than cur- 

 lency, and our business demanding large 

 aniountj of stamps, will render th«m as 

 acceptable to ua as fractional currency.
