GLEANINGS IN BEE CULTURE.

SEE THE PICTURES! 



The Bee-keepers' Review for December is the finest issue of that journal that has ever been gotten out. 

 It contains over fiftj- pages ; and the extra pages are largely devoted to illustrations. The frontispiece is " The 

 Home of the Review," as sliown by a late photograph. There is a full-page illustration of an apiary in the 

 wilds of Wisconsin. It shows the log home of its owner, and the old pineries that furnish the bee-pasture. 

 There is one picture that goes clear across two pages, and shows an apiary of 300 colonies in Heddon hives — all 

 very neat and tasty. There is a half-page picture giving a glimpse of a portion of South Water street, Chicago — 

 the great honey market of the West. It is a snap-shot, taken a little past mid-day. One half-page cut shows an 

 apiary snugged away at the foot of the great bhiffs forming the Kickapoo Valley of Wisconsin. There is a full 

 page picture showing the house-apiary, apiary, and home of A. I. Root. The home of E. R. Root is also shown. 

 There is a full-page cut of the factory of the W. F.'and Jno. Barnes Co. There are also pictures of the factories of 

 Jas. Forncrook, the C B. Lewis Co., Aug. Weiss., H. Rienow & Son, Marshfield Mfg. Co., Page & I,yons, Inter- 

 state Mfg. Co., and Gus. Dittnier. All of these pictures, with one exception, are from photographs taken last 

 summer by the editor of the Review. There is not space to describe the reading-matter, except to say that it is 

 in keeping with the engravings. 



Send for $1.00 for the Revie%v for 1000, and this December issue, together with 12 other back numbers, will be 

 sent you free.
