1.1 



A large and complete stock of the Root Goods oflfered at the factory schedule 

 of prices. My system of rotating does not permit any accumulation of old 

 stock. My comb foundation is always fresh from the mills; my sections fresh 

 and bright, and hives have all latest improvements. I accept beeswax in 

 payment for goods, or I will pay highest market price for wax in cash. I am 

 in need of more wax at all times. 



My Perfection Tiglit-seal Jars are acknowledged as being the best lor 

 extracted honey, and 1 assume all responsibility in shipping, guaranteeing 

 sale arrival. I mean exactly what I say. 



My new Paper Honey-jars are cheap enough for retailers to give away 

 with their honey. No more waiting to exchange jars or crocks when you 

 deliver your honey. My catalog tells all about these things, and is sent free.

Controlling Mating of Queen Bees 



The April number of the American Bee Journal contains 

 an article by C. O. Smith, outlining a method of controlling 

 the mating of queens. He thinks he has discovered a plan 

 that will be a success. No doubt every reader of Gleanings 

 In Bee Culture will be glad to read what Mr. Smith says on 

 this subject. 



"CO-OPERATION AMONG BEE-KEEPERS" Is also dis- 

 cussed in this number. 



A good concrete honey-house Is describei and illustrated. 



Uniform hives, shipping-cases, and general apiarian fix- 

 tures are discussed by Messrs. F. Grelner and Frank Rauch- 

 fuss 



'•WINTER STORES FOR BEES" Is a topic handled by 

 G. M. Doollttle. 



Dr. Miller answers some 80 questions In the April number. 



TRANSFF.RRING BEES from box hives to movable-frame 

 hives is described by J. J. Wilder, with nine pictures show- 

 ing just how It Is done. 



Copies of the American Bee Journal for January, Febru- 

 ary, and March are just as interesting as this April number. 

 We will send a copy of the April number for 10 cents, or all 

 the numbers for January, February, March, and April for 

 20 cents. After reading either the one or the four numbers 

 you will want to have the American Bee Journal the rest of 

 the year. The price is 81.00 a year, and the 10 cents or 20 

 cents sent In reply to this advertisement can be applied on 

 a vear's future subscription. That is, if you send 10 cents 

 only 90 cents more will be necessary to pay for a full year 

 beyond the copy you receive; or if you send 20 cents for 

 the four numbers then all that will be necessary will be 80 

 cents to pay a year beyond April, 1911. 



If you have never seen the American Bee Journal, you 

 win be glad that you answered this advertisement and se- 

 cured either the April number for 10 cents or all the num- 

 bers for the first four months of this year for 20 cents.
