GLEANINGS IN BEE CULTURE. 



MarI. 



Like Every Editor, 



I wish to increase the circulation of my 

 journal. If e\ ery l)ee-lieeper in tliis coun- 

 try were 1 huroujihly acquainted witli the 

 Review, my subscription-list would at 

 once be greatly increased. I have in mind a scheme for bring-iiig about this acquaintance. Of some 

 issues of tiie Review I liave as many as 3U0 copies; of others, 200; of others, 100; and so on down to less 

 than a dozen. Now, if you will allow me to pick them out, I will sell these liack numbers at two cents a 

 copy. Send me any amount up to $1.00, atid I will send you 'lalf as many copies as you send me cents, and 

 no two copies alike. Remember that back numbers of the Review are somi.'what different from the back 

 numbers of some journals^-tliat each number is, to a certain extent, a little book or pamphlet containing 

 the views of leading bee-keepers upon some special topic. Stami)s taken, either U. S. or Canadian.
