wholly. I have tried numerous styles of 

 hives on a small scale, and later, after a 

 good trial, discarded all but the one I now 

 use and prefer. Up to a few years ago I 

 read all the books on bee-culture pubiisht 

 in this country, and took as high as Ave dif- 

 ferent bee-papers for a number of years. 

 I was enthusiastic, and blunders were com- 

 mon. I bought my first Italian queens in 

 June, 1867.

Carroll Co., III. F. A. Smell. 



I have taken the American Bee Journal 

 25 years, including this year. 



Wayne Co., N. Y. D. M. Ketoham. 



The wish was exprest by the editor, that 

 those of subscribers who had taken the 

 American Bee Jotirnal for ;2.~> years or more 

 should send in their names. In accordance 

 with that I will make the following state- 

 ment: 



In the year ISTi) or 1871, 1 secured a copy 

 of a bee-paper pubiisht In Ohio, I think, by 

 a man by the name of King, and in the 

 course of that year I learned of the exist- 

 ence of the American Bee Journal, sent for 

 and obtained a copy, and liked it so well 

 that I subscribed for it, and have taken it 

 every year but one since, I think. 



Wyoming Co., N, Y. David Hall. 



Bro. YoRK:--In answer to your request, 

 in regard to the number of years I have 

 taken the American Bee Journal, I would 

 say that I got my first hive in 1.S7'3, and 

 subscribed for the American Bee Journal 

 soon after, so that it must be '3.5 or '2il years, 

 to the best of my knowledge and belief. 



Lancaster Co.. Pa. Thos. Thuklow. 



Friend York:— I see you call for a roll 

 of honor, for all who have taken the Ameri- 

 can Bee Journal for '3.5 years. I have done 

 better than that; I have taken it ever since 

 it was pubiisht by A. M. Spangler & Co., 

 35 North (Ith St., Philadelphia. Jan. 1, ISOl, 

 and I have nearly every number now. 

 There are a few numbers I have lost in the 

 mail, and I have neglected to get them. I 

 have been in the bee-business ever since. I 

 had the first extractor in this county, and 

 shipt the first extracted honey from 

 this county. I was the second one to in- 

 troduce Italian bees. I have over (JOO colo-
