440 GLEANINGS IN BEE CULTURE. June 15. 



What Has Been Told Lately 



In the Bee-keepers' Bevieiv ? did you ask ? Well, in the Jan. issue Mr. Aspmwall explained a simple plan 

 whereby the mating of queens at the Lome yard may be secured with almost ahsolutc certainty. E. L. Tay- 

 lor, in the February issue, describes an experiment made to determine if honey stored in the super of a 

 foul-broody colony was infected with the germs of foul brood. In tbe March number, Isaac Lundy told 

 "How to Get Drawn Combs right in the Sections, and Secure Comb Honey at the same Time." In the April 

 issue, R. L. Taylor tells at what a high temperature he kept his bee-cellar last winter, and the results. The 

 June issue contains a long article from Mr. Lundy, explaining liis methods, and giving the details of a plan 

 whereby he secures drawn combs during the white-honey harvest. Of course, there are other articles, 

 editorial comments, extracts, notes from foreign bee-journals, Hasty's " View of Current Bee Literature," 

 etc.

Dear Sir:— Have used the Conqueror 15 years. I was always pleased 

 with its workings, but thinking 1 would need a new one this summer, I 

 write for a circular. I do not think the 4-inch Smoke Engine too large.

A Penny Saved is a Penny Earned. 



Yes, it's better than that, for the saved penny you don't have to earn twice. Well, the 

 Weekly American Bee Journal will help you save your pennies. It is a real money- 

 sa^er to the bee-keeper who will read and practice its teaching. The regular price is 

 $1.00 a year, or only about two cents per copy. But in order that new readers nmv give 

 It a trial we will send it for only 50 cents from the time we receive your subscription to 

 the end of 1897. Now, the sooner you send the half dollar, the more copies you will re- 

 ceive. Send Ic stamps if more convenient. Sample copy free.
