Please remember that all the above premiums are offered 

 only to those who are now subscribers, and who will send in 

 new ones. A new subscriber at 40 cents cannot also claim a 

 premium; but we will begin the subscription just as soon as 

 it is sent in, which will secure several June numbers in addi- 

 tion to the last 6 months of this year, provided the subscription 

 is forwarded to us at once. 



If you want your bee-keeping neighbors to be certain of 

 getting ALL the numbers of the last 6 months of 1898, you 

 had better get their subscriptions in before July I, as we 

 may run out of copies before the end of that month. 



Isow, let every one go to work, and help roll up the largest 

 list of subscribers the old American Bee Journal ever had. It 

 can easily be done if all who possibly can get a few new 

 subscribers will kindly do so.
