 It is always pleasant to know that 

 one's results are appreciated and I feel 

 it my duty as well as pleasure, to rec- 

 ognize as one of your beneficiaries, 

 what your efforts coupled with those 

 of your loyal and wise associates, are 

 accomplishing and to express my 

 thanks for your endeavors to make the 

 bee-keeper's lot a more desirable one. 

 While I, myself, have only a few col- 



onies kept for recreation and diversion, 

 I feel that I should give the business 

 end serious thought and effort and not 

 for instance, sell honey lower than the 

 market price on account of its effect 

 on someone else whose living depends 

 on his sales of hone}'. By co-operation 

 great things can be accomplished and 

 you are certainly on the right tarck 

 and I for one am in entire sympathy 

 with your line of thought in trying to 

 get the bee-keepers close together.

 Dear Sir : 



Enclosed you will find $1.00 for which 

 will you please extend my subscription 

 of the Review another year. Also en- 

 roll me as a member of the National. 

 I have sent 50 cents Branch fees to the 

 Secretary of the Ohio Branch. 



I can see a great field of work be- 

 fore the National and it is doing won- 

 ders, but it will still accomplish greater 

 objects in the future under its present 

 competent officers. 



I want to thank you for the advice 

 that you gave me recently for it helped 

 me greatly. 



Last winter was unusually cold here.. 

 Imt I succeeded in wintering a weak 

 three frame nucleus out doors on the 

 the sumrner stand — so much for the 

 Review. 



I bind mj' own Reviews. Here is the 

 way : I take a piece of heavy paper 

 (not too heavy or it will break) — car- 

 pet lining paper will do. I cut it about 

 one and a half inches longer than the 

 Review and two inches wider, then I 

 take a piece of cloth (an}' kind will 

 do) and paste it over the paper and let 

 it dry. Now the cover is ready. Next 

 I take twelve copies of the Review and 

 nail them together with small nails, 

 clinching them. Next I place the pre- 

 pared cover over the outside, nailing it 

 with the same kind of nails, being care- 

 ful to keep the nails close to the edge 

 so as not to interfere with the opening 

 of the book. This makes a substantial 

 volume that will stand rough handling. 



If this scribbling doesn't reach that 

 ever ready hole under the editor's desk, 

 I will come again some day. 

 Yours truly, 



Addisox Gould.
