GLEANINGS IN BEE CULTURE. 



Jan. 1 



Accompanying the above sketch was a pic- 

 ture of the rude tabernacle. Of course it is 

 a temporary one, or perhaps only for this 

 winter and may be another one. Let us 

 hope and work and pray that such things 

 may spread all over Ohio. 



Now, friends, here is one of the grandest 

 illustrations of laying up treasures in heav- 

 en. These people gave their lumber, their 

 labor, the materials, and every thing they had 

 or could afford, toward building this large 

 tabernacle for spreading the gospel. It was 

 unselfish; it was for the good of humanity. 

 Every man, woman, and child who had a 

 part in that work will, I am sure, feel it is 

 one of the best investments of time and 

 money they ever made. The memory of it 

 will be a bright spot all through their lives; 

 and when they come to die they will feel 

 happy that at least a part of their time was 

 given then toward laying up treasures in 

 heaven. ' ' where moth and rust doth not cor- 

 rupt, and where thieves do not break through 

 and steal."

Oxford, O., Sept. 30, 1878. 

 Your smoker has been in daily use 

 for months in a friend's apiary. He is 

 enthusiastic in its praise, and, after 

 seeing how greatly it facilitates the 

 handling of bees, I heartily endorse all 

 he says of it. L. L. Langstrotil
