To CorreHpondcntM, — Tt would save 

 us much troulilo, If nil would be particular 

 to give their P. *J. addresH and name, when 

 writing to this oflice. We have several letters 

 (some Inclosing money) that have no name; 

 many others having no Post-Offlce, County 

 or State. Also, If you live m*ar one postr 

 office and get your mall at another, bo sure 

 to (five the address we have on our list. 



" Don't Stop "—that ia what many write 

 to ue about their papers, when their time is 

 nearly out. One subscriber says: "This 

 has been a year of disaster, and it is not con- 

 venient for mc to send you the money now 

 to renew my subscription. It runs out with 

 this month ; liui don't atop sentHrKj it. I will 

 get the money to you within three months." 

 Such letters are coming every day, and so 

 for the present we have concluded not to 

 stop any papers until requested to do so. 



Tfic Time for Keadln;; has now come. 

 The lonK winter evenings can be utilized by 

 reading up bee-literature. We have all the 

 newest t)ee-boolcs and can fill all orders on 

 the day they are received. 



Beexwax Wanted.— We are now paying 

 24 cents per pound for good, average, yellow 

 Beeswax, delivered here. Cash on arrival. 

 Shipments are solicited. The name of the 

 shipper should be put on every packaj^e to 

 prevent mistakes. 



IVhen Renewing your subgcrlption 

 please try to get your neighbor who keeps 

 bees to join with you in taking the Uke 

 JocBSA I.. It is now no cheap that no one 

 can afford U> do without it. We will present 

 a Binder for the UKK.louit.vAr, to any one 

 sending us four subscriptions— with $4.(K)— 

 direct U> this olllce. It will pay any one to 

 devote a few hours, to get Bubscribcrs.

 the book, " IKes and Honey," may tjc found
