The Apiary Register devotes 2 pages 

 to each colony, ruled and printed, and 

 is so arranged tliat a single glance will 

 give a complete history of the colony. 



For 50 colonies (120 pages) $1 00 



" 100 colonies (220 pages 1 .50 



" 200 colonies (420 pages) 2 00 



The larger ones can be used for a 

 few colonies, give room for an increase 

 of numbeVs, and still keep the record 

 all together in one book, and are there- 

 fore the most desirable ones to pro- 

 cure at the start.
