QUICK SHIPMENTS. 



We were never in better shape to make prompt 

 shipment of orders than now — especially of sections 

 and comb foundation. We have a good stock to 

 draw on; and if you need goods in a hurry, let us 

 show you how quickly we can ship them. 



JAPANESE BUCKWHEAT SEED. 



If any of our readers are provided with more 

 buckwheat than they need for seed, especially of 

 the .Japanese, we shovild like to know how much 

 they have to offer, and the price asked. Our pres- 

 ent stock is limited, and may not last the season 

 through. 



HONEY WANTED. 



AVe are now in the market for a good grade of 

 white honey suitable for our trade. Send us a sam- 

 ple with your name attached to package for identi- 

 fication. Write us at the same time, telling us 

 from what source the honey was gathered, when 

 you extracted it. and In what kind of package it is 

 put in: also if you are ready to ship it at once, or at 

 what time you will be ready to ship it. Mention 

 the price per pound that you want for it, delivered 

 on cars at your nearest railroad station. We can 

 use any amount, from a 60-lb. can or a small bar- 

 rel, to several carloads, and from any place pro- 

 duced, provided the honey is light and does not 

 have a too pronounced flavor. 



THE BEE-KEEPERS' REVIEW TO BE CONTINUED. 



.Just as we go to press we are advised that the 

 Bee-keepers' Hevieic will be continued under the 

 management and control of Mr. E. B. Tyrrell, of 

 Detroit. Mr. Tyrrell thinks it may be impossible, 

 under the circ inistances, for him to get out the 

 .June number on time. 11 so, he will get out a dou- 

 ble number lor .July. 



The new proprietor is Secretary of the National 

 Bee-keepers' Association, a bee-keeper of experi- 

 ence, a student and admirer of Mr. Hutchin.son, an 

 enthusiast on and a lover of bees. We bespeak for 

 the Review the same cordial support that it has en- 

 joyed in the past, for the new editor says he is go- 

 ing to continue the same policies inaugurated by 

 his predecessor. As a matter of fact. Mr. Hutchin- 

 son had enough matter accumulated to last almost 

 a year, so the readers of the Jievieir will see the 

 handiwork of its founder for some time yet. 



TWENTIETH-CENTURY (OR SAFETY) SHIPPING-CASES. 



In another part of this issue, p. 361. will be found 

 a description of a new shipping-case intended to 

 protect comb honey better in shipjjing, and also to 

 provide protection for the individual sections of 

 honey from the dealer to his customer. These cases 

 will be furnished with two-inch glass, and not with 

 three inch. If preferred, a wooden slide can be used 

 In place of the glass. For the present we will fur- 

 nish these cases for only three sizes of sections— the 

 4K X 4'/ X 1% beeway; VA x i^A x 1%. plain, and 4x5 

 X If'a plain. A special carton must be made for each 

 size of section used: and as these are the sections in 

 common use we will not, for the present, supply 

 other sizes. The price of each style of case will be 

 the same for each size of plain section, and a little 

 more for the beeway, as it is larger.
