 seaHngwax or paraffin. We can fur- 

 nish them in single gross lots, with 

 corks, f.o.b. Chicago, at $3.50; two- 

 gross, $3.25 per gross ; or five or more

 cheapest glass one-pound jars weknow 

 anything about. We have only about

Bees in Colorado" 



I still have several hundred copies of 

 the souvenir with the above title. The 

 bee-papers and a good many people 

 without visible axes to grind have said 

 it is a valuable and attractive thing. 

 If you should like to have a copy, send 

 me a silver dime or 5 two-cent stamps, 

 and I will mail you a copy. 



" Bees is Colorado "' is the title of a 48- 

 page and cover pamphlet gotten up to boom 

 the Denver convention. Its author is D. W. 

 Working, the alert secretary of the Colorado 

 State Bee-Keepers' Association. It is beauti- 

 fully illuslrated, and printed on enameled 

 paper. It is a credit to Mr. Working, and 

 will he a preat help in acquainting those out- 

 side of Colorado with the bee and honey 

 characteristics and opportunites of that
