ANNOUNCEMENT. 



Tlie undersigned has bought the bankrupt 

 stock of H. H. Hyde, late of San Antonio, Texas, 

 consisting of eight and ten frame bee-hives, sec- 

 tions, frames, foundation, smokers, extractois, 

 and every thing used by bee-keepers. 



The problem that now confronts me is how to 

 dispose of the stock to advantage. The writer 

 will go to Texas and try to establish a distribut- 

 ing agency at San Antonio, to which carloads 

 may be shipped from time to time. I wish now 

 to hear from bee-keepers who wish to buy for 

 cash, and also from responsible parties, prefera- 

 bly hardware or lumber dealers, who will put in 

 and carry a retail stock of bee-hives and sup- 

 plies. It is for your interest to have as much 

 competition and as many retail stores carrying 

 bee supplies as possible. You will, therefore, do 

 yourself a favor by making inquiry among the 

 dealers in your locality, and by inducing some- 

 body to purchase a stock from me. I will keep 

 you posted through my monthly bee journal, 

 THE Rural Bee-keeper, in which I,. B. Smith, 

 of Rescue, Texas, conducts a department, and 

 such authorities as I,. Stachelhausen. J. E. Cham- 

 bers, E. O. Swafford, of Abilene, and others, are 

 contributors. Regular subscription price $1.00 a 

 year; six months' trial, 25 cents. 



To any bee-keeper who will so interest some 

 reliable dealer and secure such a customer for 

 me I will send The Rural Bee-keepkr one 

 year free. Yours truly,
