The Pro^a'essive Bee-Keeper 



Is a 28-page monthh- bee journal published at Higginsville, Mo. ; price, 

 50c per year. With the year of 1898, we begin the eighth volume; hence 

 it is past the experniental stage. K. B. I^eahy and G. M. Doolittle, 

 editors. vSome of the features of 1898 will be a continuation of Wayside 

 Fragments, by Somnanihiilist. Experience and its I^essons, 

 by R. C. Aikin. This .series of articles \dll be reviewed by Mr. Doo- 

 little, which is practically giving his experience with its lessons. "Expe- 

 rience" and its lessons, as reviewed, will be a gold mine for beginners and 

 advantageous to those more advanced in bee culture. The Somnambu- 

 list articles are written in a pleasing stjle, as none but Sommy could 

 write them. They are highly entertaining and instructive. Dr. C. C. 

 Miller, and other popular writers also contribute to its columns. The 

 Progressive is a jjopular journal at a popular price. Printed in the 

 highest art, on beautiful paper. Fearless in its character, newsy in its 

 contents, and artistic in its make-up. Remember the Progressive Bee- 

 Keeper is but 50c peryear. The Progt^essive and that "one only" 

 book for beginners, the Amateur Bee-Keeper, by Prof. J. W. 

 i?on.se, both for 65c. A sample cop}- of the Progrp:ssive for your 

 name, and a beautiful illustrated catalogue of apiarian supplies for the 

 asking. Address,
