GLEANINGS IN BEE CULTURE 



Oct. 1. 



FORTY PICTURES. 



The editor of the Bee-keepers' Review, in July last, 

 spent nearly three weeks with note-book and camera 

 among the bee-keepers and supply manufacturers of 

 Wisconsin, bringing home with him many items of 

 interest and value, and about forty views of apiaries, 

 hives, factories, etc., all of which will eventually find 

 their way into the Review. Arrangements have also 

 been made with some of the best bee keepers of Wis- 



consin to describe, in the Review, before the opening 

 of another season, the methods whereby they have 

 been so successful. If not a subscriber send $1-00, and 

 the Review will be sent you from now to the end of 

 1000 — you will get the rest of this year free. You can 

 also get the Review from now to the end of 1900, and 

 one of those queens of that superior stock that I have 

 been advertising, for only $2.00.
