OUR NEW PRICE LIST FOR JAN. 1, 1892. 



Beft)re the next issue of Gleanings is mailed we 

 liope to send to each of of our readers a copy of tlie 

 74th edition of our price list. Among other changes 

 tliat will be noted we mention the following. Tlie 

 matter on bees and queens has been rewiitten, and 

 a new table of prices is given, (juoting lower prices 

 in many cases. The new shippiiig-l)o.\i'S for bees 

 deserve iu)ti('e. In queen-cages we have thrown out 

 the Peet entirely, and list only tlie iminoved Ben- 

 ttni. The West queen-cell jirotector and Miller's 

 introducing-cage are given for tiie fiist time in our 

 list. We call especial attention to Coggshall's bee- 

 brush, which far suri)asses any thing before used 

 for the purpose. It is an extra long, broad, and 

 very thin wliisk-broom made of selected broom- 

 corn, and will take the bees ott' tlie side of a comb 

 at one sweep. 



We catalogue the Porter bee-escape, as we believe it 

 to be the best so far produced. We are iii(]>are(l to 

 furnish these to dealers at the manufactuiei's 

 wholesale prices, wliich we will (juote on aiiplica- 

 tion. Bushel boxes have been included in the list. 

 The price of bee-veils and material has been quite a 

 little reduced. The improvements in liives and 

 frames are noted elsewhere in this issue. You will 

 find the price of wire nails vei'y much reduced. 

 The old series, E long-wind Waterbury watch, has 

 been dropped out of our price list, as we no longer 

 furnish it. Instead you will find Root's hou.sehold 

 repairing outfit, wliich is proving a great money- 

 saver in tlie ]K)mes of many wlio liave more time to 

 do their own mending than mone.v to pay for liav- 

 ing it done. The price of lawn-mowers is also re- 

 duced. You will note other changes in our list. 



DO YOU WANT GLEANINGS CONTINUED? 



With this number, the paid subscriptions of a 

 great many of our readers expire. Tlie date on the 

 label on the wrapper of the journal tells you when 

 the time paid ftir is u]). Tliose whose subscription 

 expires with tlie present number should receive, in 

 their copy of Gleanings, a in'inted notice of expi- 

 ration, and an order-sheet and addressed envelope 

 for renewal. If you wish Gleanings continued we 

 shall l)e pleased to receive your renewals; or if it 

 isn't convenient to send the amount now, please flU 

 out the blank, stating when you will send it, and 

 we will know what yt)ur wishes are. If you do not 

 want it continued, please do not fail to notify us, 

 for we continue the journal until we receive orders 

 to discontinue. We adopt this method because the 

 majority seem to prefer it. There are a few who do 

 not like it, and have written some rather severe 

 things about such a practice. Now, our plan is 

 such that we can please every one. 11 you do not 

 want your subscription to continue after the time 

 paid for, all you have to do is to say so when you 

 send .vour order and it will be marked with a "D," 

 and will be dropped when the time paid for is up. 

 Inasmuch as the majority prefer to have it contin- 

 ued, it doesn't seem fair to put the majority to incon- 

 venience to please the minority wlien they can so 

 easily have their wish complied with. If an.v of our 

 readers, even though their subscription has not run 

 out, prefer to have it stop when the time paid for 

 is up, write us a postal card, saying so, and we will 

 mark your name, that there may be no room for 

 misunderstanding or hard feelings; and remember, 

 If you allow the matter to run along without noti- 

 f.ving us until you get in arrears, we are entitled to 

 all arrearages before the journal may be stopped. 

 We have no desire .whatever to .send Gleanings to 

 any one who does not want it, but we do want to 

 continue sending it to those who do want it ; and we 

 ask .vou to be careful in sending in your subscrip- 

 tions and renewals, to make known what .^'ou wish.
