To Advertisers.— By reference to our 

 schedule of rates for advertising by 

 the year, it will be seen tliat consider- 

 able reduction has been made. This, 

 in connection witli our large and in- 

 creasing circulation, makes it advan- 

 tageous to dealers to avail themselves 

 of its weekly visits to the bee-keepers 

 of America to make their announce- 

 ments for the coming season's trade. 

 We not only offer the best advertising 

 medium, butthe lowestrates on yearly 

 contracts. 



The Apliiry Register devotes 2 pages 

 to each colony, ruled and printed, and 

 is so arranged that a single glance will 

 give a complete history of the colony. 



For rjO colonies (120 pages) fl 00 



" too colonies (220 pages) 1 60 



" 200 colonies (420 pages) 2 00 



The larger ones can be used for a 

 few colonies, give room for an increase 

 of numbers, and still keep the record 

 all togetlier in one book, and are there- 

 fore the most desirable ones to pro- 

 cure at the start. 



Binders for 1882.— We have had a 

 lot of Emerson binders made espe- 

 cially for the Bee Jouhnal for 1882. 

 They are lettered in gold on the back, 

 and make a nice and convenient way 

 to preserve the Jouknal as fast as 

 received. They will be sent postpaid 

 by mail for 75 cents. 



1^" ]5inders cannot be sent to Can- 

 ada by mail— the International hiw
