For ten cents the American Bee Journal will be sent for ten -weeks on trial to any beekeeper 

 not now a subscriber. (Or for $1.00 we will send the weekly American Bee Journal to a ne-w subscriber from 

 Oct. 1, 1898, to Jan. 1, 1900 — 15 months — less than 7 cents a month). This is a splendid chance to become
