GLEANINGS IN BEE CULTURE. 



777 



For each additional 1000, add 50 cents. Each change 

 of name and address counts as a separate order. For 

 instance. 1000 bags printed with four different names 

 and addresses, 250 of each, would be J2.00; with ten 

 different names 55.00, etc. As the bags must be print- 

 ed before they are made up and coated, we can not 

 change the label except in lots of 10,000 or over. We 

 have some plain 2-lb. size of dark-drab paper which 

 we can furnish plain at $2 00 per lOOO less than prices 

 quoted above, or we can print a smaller special label 

 in one color at above rates extra for printing. 



EXTRACTED HONEY. 



We keep on hand a large stock of extracted honey 

 from different sources, and are prepared to supply at 

 the prices shown below. The following flavors are 

 usually in stock. 



PRICES.— F. O. B. MEDINA, CHICAGO, OR PHILADELPHIA 



PACKAGES. 



By far the largest part of our honey comes put up in 

 the 60-lb. square tin cans, two cans in a case. We 

 also get some in kegs and barrels. We agree to 

 furnish it only in such packagesas we happen to have. 

 Unless you find price quoted for different packages, it 

 is understood that we furnish only in 5-gallon and 1- 

 gallon cans. 



Convention Notice. 



The annual session of the National Bee-keepers' As- 

 sociation for 1904 will be held in September at St. 

 Louis, Mo. 



Sept. 27 and 28 will be devoted to A.ssociation work 

 and its interests. 



September 29, national day. We expect many prom- 

 inent foreign bee-keepers to be present on this day. 



September 30 inspectors' day. Twenty bee-inspect- 

 ors from the United States and Canada are counted 

 on to introduce and discuss the diseases of bees etc. 



Mr. N. E. France will exhibit, in the convention 

 hall, a large map of the United States, Canada, Cuba, 

 and Europe. Each State and country will have a 

 shelf attached to the map with a one-pound sample of 

 each kind of honey produced. Many other exhibits 

 of special interest will be shown. 



We expect to see the largest gathering of bee-keep- 

 ers ever held in this country. A more detailed pro- 

 gram will appear later.

Nebrask.\ Headquarters 

 Louisiana Purchase Exposition. 

 I see by the paper that the National Bee-keeper's 

 Association will meet in this city Sept. 27. Of course, 

 all will attend the fair; and as Nebraskans we ask 

 that jou so arrange the program that all may attend 

 special exercises at Nebraska headquarters at 9 



'oclock, when we will arrange a series of moving pic- 

 tures for their especial benefit. I think you are one 

 of the directors, and tru.st this request will be com- 

 plied wiih. L. D. Stilson. 

 St. Louis, Mo., July 15. 



will exhibit at the fair. 

 Ed. Root.— I wish to state, for the benefit of some 

 of your readers, that I will again make a display of 

 horiey, wax, bees and queens, Dee-supplies, etc., at the 

 Kankakee (111 ) District Fair, in September, from the 

 5th to the 9th. The fair had last year an average 

 daily attendance of 15,000, which included a large num- 

 ber of bee keepers. I am allowf d a part of the north 

 wing of the Horticulture building, all the room re- 

 quired for a most complete exhibit. I expect to be in 

 attecdance all the week, and Mrs. Duby will also do 

 her part in entertaining all lady bee-keepers. The 

 managers of the Fair, including Secretary Senator 

 Len Small, whom we expect to elect State Treasurer, 

 are all very much interested in my display. Bee- 

 keepers will be welcome. '.

The Southwestern Ohio and Hamilton County Bee- 

 keepers' Association elected the following officers at 

 their last regular meeting, June 17: 



President, Henry Shaffer; Vice-president, Joseph 

 Riestenberg; Secrttarv, Henry Reddert; Treasurer, 

 C. H. W. Weber; Executive Committee, John Som- 

 mers, Benjamin Kolks, Harry Denning, Charles 

 Weber. 



The association is incorporated under the laws of 

 Ohio, having received a charter from the Secretary of 

 State June 17. Its object is 'The promotion of api- 

 culture in all its branches." One of the main features 

 of the meetings is ' to teach bee-keeping from a scien- 

 tific standpoint." Judging from the rapid increase in 

 members, we may well say that the bee keepers of 

 this section are alert as to "their interests in every re- 

 spect. Henry- Reddert, Sec'y.
