American Bee Journal One Year 25c 



To New Subscribers. 



This is another of those " BIG OFFERS " that have been mentioned in the bee- paper advertise- 

 ments the past few months. Onlv this time it is the BIGGEST OF ALL- The way to get the old Amer- 

 ican Bee Journal for a year for 25 cts.— 52 numbers—is to send to its publishers SI and they will mail you 



A Warranted Golden Italian Queen 



valued at 75 ets., and the Bee Journal for a year from the time your dollar 

 is received— provided you are a netv subscriber to the American Bee Journal. 

 The queens will be mailed in the order the subscriptions are received, and 

 we expect to be able to send them promptly, or within two or three days. 

 The regular subscription price of the old weekly American Bee Jour- 

 nal alone is one dollar. If you have never seen a copy of it, send for a free 

 sample copy. We are sure you will want it regularly after reading one 

 number. Here is what some think of it who have had it right along.

We could fill this number of Gleanings with just such words of appreciation, but that would be 

 useless. You are safe enough in sending $1.00 for the Bee Journal and the Warranted Golden Italian 

 Queen. Such a bargain you don't see every day

Testimonial. 



Medina, Ohio, May 29, 1899. 

 Gentlemen :— The nucleus of Carniolans you sent us 

 came to hand promptly, in fine order. Have examin- 

 ed them nearly every dav and find them very gtntle 

 indeed. Have a colony of select Italians, and in some 

 respects the Carniolans seem easier to handle. 



Yours truly. The A. I. Root Co.,
