GLEANINGS IN BEE CULTURE. 



NEW SUBSCRIBERS 



Jan. 15. 



are 

 Offered. 



New^ subscribers are what every journal most earnestly desires. As a matter of course, if the jour- 

 nal is good, most of the old subscribers will stay by it; but to get new subscribers, to g-et the journal into 

 the hands of new men, that they in time may thus become old subscribers, is what ev> ry j urnal strives 

 for most earnestly. To this end I make the following- offers. For f 1.00 1 will send the Bee=keepers' Re= 

 view for 1897 (and throw in the December, 1896, number, which is especially g-ood) and the 50-cent book, 

 " Advanced Bee Culture," or, in place oif the book, 13 back numbers of the Review. For $1.50 I will send 

 the Review and a flue, tested. Italian queen— queen to be sent early in the season of 189T. For 13.50, the 

 Review and 1000 No. 1 fl st-class one-p ece sections. But, remember, these offers are only to those who 

 are not now subscribers to the Review, and as a special inducement for them to try the Review at least 

 one year.
