The Bee-Keeper's Guide 



Cilven For 2 IVew Subscribers. 



This 15lh and latest edition of Prof. Cook's 

 magnificent book of 460 pages, in neat and 

 substantial cloth binding, we propose to give 

 away to our present subscribers, for the work 

 of getting NEW subscribers for the American 

 Bee Journal. 



A description of the book here is quite un- 

 necessary—it is simply the most complete sci- 

 entific and practical bee-book published to- 

 day. Fully illustrated, and all written in the 

 most fascinating style. The author is also 

 too well-known to the whole bee-world to re- 

 quire any introduction. No bee-keeper is 

 fully equipped, or his library complete, with- 

 out "The Bee-Keeper's Guide." 



GEORGE W. TOBK & 



The following offer is made to present sub- 

 scribers only, and no premium is also given 

 to the two new subscribers— simply the Bee 

 Journal for one year : 



Send us Two New Snbscribers to the Bee 

 Journal (with S2.U0), and we will mall vou a 

 copy of Prof. Cook's book free as a premi- 

 um. Prof. Cook's book alone sent for $1. '35, 

 or we club it with the Bee Journal for a year 

 —both together for only 11.75. But surely 

 anybody can get only 2 new subscribers ta 

 the Bee Journal for a year, and thus get the 

 boo' as a premium. Let everybody try for If 

 Will you have one ^

The following editorial 

 appears in the Bee-Keep- 

 ers' Review for August; 

 and altbo the IVo-l>i-lp 

 SliippinK^'!**'*'^ idea is old, we believe we were the first to bring it prominently before 

 the public. We introduced it in the summer of 18%. Well, now read what the editor 

 of the Review says : 



Hi 



Hi 



''Sliipping'-C'ases of llie I^o-Urip $$tyle are decid- 

 edly superior to the old style in which the honey, if any drips from 

 the combs, and this very frequently happens, runs out through tbe 

 bottom of the case and daubs the top of the under case. Dirt and 

 dust stick to this honey, and give the cases a very untidy appear- 

 ance. The no-drip case prevents all this. 1 used 2M cases last 

 year, and carted them around to five State fairs, and only those 

 who have been through such experiences with the old style of case 

 know the comfort experienced in handling dry. clean cases at all 

 times. If any one experiences any trouble in folding up the paper 

 tray that goes in the tiottom. let him make a board about one- 

 eighth of an inch, or a trifle more, smaller than the inside of the 

 case. Place the sheet of paper on top of the case, lay ou the board, 

 forcing the paper to the bottom of the ease. A nail driven into 

 the u]iper side of the board will furnish a handle tor removing the 

 board. The lower corners of the board may need rounding oil' to 

 prevent their puncturing tbe paper. It may require a little pa- 

 tience and practice to get the board just rigiit and to learn how to 

 use it, hut the neatness and dispatch that follow will amply repay 

 the trouble."
