IVliat. of It ?— Why, the North Ameri- 

 can Bee-Keepers' Association meets on the 

 above dates and at the above-named place ! 

 Everybody should make their arrange- 

 ments so as to " get there." It must be 

 the biggest and best convention of the 

 North American. COME, and bring your 

 friends. See hotel rates, etc., on page 324 

 of this number of the Bee Journal. 



Beeville, Kce Vo., Xex., will be 

 Mrs. Jennie Atchley's permanent address 

 after Sept. 15th. She wishes her customers 

 and correspondents to take notice of this 

 change of her address, so there may not be 

 any unnecessary delays. Mrs. A. and her 

 family will make Beeville their future 

 home. Bee-ville will now be rightly 

 named, as it will have a big bee-woman 

 with a big bee-family, and also lots of bees 

 and bee-hives. Beeville. Bee county, Tex., 

 is the place, and Mrs. Atchley — well, you 

 wiU know where to find her now. 



Kcepiiig: ill IL<ine in things apicul- 

 tural is what the principal bee-papers have 

 been doing for a number of months, and 

 we are more than pleased to note the 

 almost perfect harmony existing among 

 nearly all of the bee-publishers. In Glean- 

 i.?ign for Sept. 1st, after quoting our editorial 

 paragraph on bicycling on page 231, and 

 very kindly thanking us, Bro. Root closed 

 with these words: "By the way, we have 

 kept in line in apicultural matters so far, 

 and may we continue to do so." That is 

 our wish also, and when bee-editors all de- 

 sire to do right, there should be no need for 

 getting "out of line." We are looking for- 

 ward to something akin to an " old-fash- 

 ioned "" love-feast " about Oct. 11th, 12th 

 and 13th, when all "ye editors " and " dose 

 happy bee-mans und bee-vimmens " get to- 

 gether. Will you be there, brother— and 

 sister ? 



Oias. II. 'I''liies, of Illinois, is the 

 only bee-keeper that has so far notified us 

 of any intention to attend the meeting of 

 the North American next month. Of course 

 there will be a good gathering. Friends, 

 please let us know if you expect to be there, 

 so that we can tell others whom they may 

 be likely to see. 



A I*eriect Siic«;ess is what one of 

 GUaning.s^ correspondents pronounces the 

 Langdon non-swarming attachment. A 

 number of bee-keepers still have faith that 

 non-swarmers can be made to work satis- 

 factorily. Faith and works go well to- 

 gether, you know, whether in religion or 

 bee-keeping.
