Some Inducements 



To Subscribe for the Review. 



i 



I have found that it pays to offer some little induce- 

 ment to a man to become a subscriber to the Bee-keep- 

 ers' Review. Nothing in this line has met with great- 

 er success than the offer of back numbers of the Re- 

 view. Back numbers of the Review are different from 

 those of newspapers and some journals. The infor- 

 mation that they contain is just as valuable now as 

 when first published. Each issue of the Review, es- 

 pecially if devoted to the discussion of some special 

 topic, as is the case with all of the copies printed dur- 

 ing the first five or six years of its existence, is really 

 a little pamphlet containing the best thoughts and 

 experience of the best men upon the topic under dis- 

 cussion. Some issues are now out of print; of others 



only a few remain; while cf others there is still a good 

 stock on hand. Instead of letting these back numbers 

 lie on my shelves, gathering dust year after year, I 

 think it better to use them in getting new subscribers, 

 and at the same time have them out doing good. I 

 shall, therefore, as long as these back numbers hold 

 out, send 12 of them free to each one who sends me 

 11.00 for the Review for WOO. The selection of these 

 back numbers must be left with me; but I will see to 

 it that no two are alike. In addition to these back 

 numbers, all new subscribers for 1900 will receive the 

 rest of this year free. The sooner you subscribe, the 

 more you will get.
