GLEANINGS IN BEE CULTURE.

the money and paid for the queens. The 

 queen-breeder was so gratified that he prompt- 

 ly sent us half of the money for making the 

 collection. I have just returned his check, 

 however, telling him that collecting accounts 

 for pay is not our business, and that we could 

 not accept pay for any such work. We con- 

 sider it our place, and it should be the province 

 of every b e journal to prevent bee-keepers 

 from being robbed ; and if the party who has 

 been helped feels grateful, let him speak a 

 good word for the journal that helped him, 

 and help extend its circulation. Another 

 point: We wish to have it thoroughly under- 

 stood that any person, say like Luptom or the 

 party described above, will surely get taken 

 in hand by the bee-journals, and thoroughly 

 shown up, just as soon as he undertakes any 

 such swindle. It is our business to protect 

 bee-men, and to show up the swindling adver- 

 tisements. The agricultural journals, in a like 

 manner, should protect their readers, and so 

 on.

NEW PRICES IN BEESWAX. 



While there is not rnuch change in the general mar- 

 ket price of wax, yet there is a slightly upward ten- 

 dency, and we offer, till further notice, 25 cts. cash, 

 27 cts. in trade, for average wax delivered here. We 

 do not anticipate that prices will rule any higher than 

 this till next spring, if at all. The upward tendency 

 in prices of almost all commodities has not affected 

 beeswax. The explanation for this is, no doubt, in 

 the heavy winter losses last spring. 



REVISED PRICES FOR 1900. 



F .">r the convenience of those interested in the value 

 of bee keepers' supplies for 1900, we have brought to- 

 gether in the following list the new prices of all goods 

 where it has been found necessary to change prices 

 since the catalogs of 1899 were issued. Goods not men- 

 tioned in this list remain unchanged in price.
