GLEANINGS IN BEE CULTURE. 



789 



He Isn't Worrying 



about where his bread and butter is cotuiiig from. So 

 writes E. D. Townsend in the August issue of the Bee- 

 Keepers' Review, and he gives the reason why. He 

 has been a bee-keeping specialist for several years, 

 making his living solely from bees, and he tells how 

 he has done it, and shows howany extensive bee-keep- 

 er can be almost absolutely certain of getting at least 

 a fair crop of honey each year. His article on this 



subject is the most encouraging reading for a bee- 

 keeper that I have ever read. 



Send ten cents for the August issue of the Review, 

 and the ten cents may apply on any subscription sent 

 in during the year.

= "WHAT THEY SAY. = 



W. H. Putnam: — I delayed answering your 

 letter until I had read the June number of the 

 Rural Bee-keeper, and must say, as a bee-keeper 

 of 22 years' experience, I am more than pleased 

 with it, regardless of the assertions of some that 

 the publishing in this line was already overdone; 

 and if the improvements continue it will cer- 

 tainly be second to none within its first year of 

 publication. I consider the June number alone 

 worth several years subscription to any practical 

 live bee-keeper: and I will say, let the good 

 work go on and on. You have a good field; and 

 the fact of our having a bee journal published in 

 our own State should be a lasting stimulant to 

 all bee-keepers of Wisconsin and the Northwest, 

 and 50 cents certainly can not be invested to 

 better advantage. You may send me some more 

 blanks Yours truly, 



Hillsboro, Wis Elias Fox. 



Send 10 cts. for three 1;ack numbers or 50 cts. for one year.

SIMPLEX HONEY-TAR. 



'< I We have found a new glass jar 

 for one pound of honey, which we 

 think surpasses any other style we 

 ever offered. It has a glass top 

 which screws on to the glass jar 

 with a rubber gasket between. 

 The joint is on a taper so that, the 

 further you screw the cover on, 

 the tighter it makes the joint. It 

 can be sealed absolutely air-tight; 

 has no metal to rust or corrode. 

 It is about Yi inch higher than the 

 No. 25, which improves its appear- 

 ance. We sell them at the same 

 price as the No. 25, and have a 

 carload in stock ready to fill 

 orders. We first learned of this 

 jar nearly a year ago, but have 

 said nothing about it until we had 

 the stock in hand ready to supply. We still have 

 some No. 25 in stock for those who may prefer to con- 

 tinue with it We believe, however, the Simplex jar 

 will take the place of the No. '25.
