 Recipes for Honey Medicines, all kinds 

 of cooking in which honey is used, and 

 healthful and pleasant beverages. 



We have put the price of them low 

 to encourage bee-keepers to scatter 

 them far and wide. Single copy 6 

 cents, postpaid; per dozen, 50 cents;

 or more, we print, if desired, on the 

 cover-page, "Presented by," etc.,

 bee-keeper who scatters them). This 

 alone will pay him for all his trouble 

 and expense— enabling him to dispose 

 of his honey at home, at a good profit.

 lot of Emerson binders made espe- 

 cially for the Bee Journal for 1882. 

 They are lettered in gold on the back, 

 and make a nice and convenient way 

 to preserve the Journal as fast as 

 received. They will be sent postpaid 

 by mail for 75 cents.

 local Associations $2.00 per 100. The 

 name of the Association printed in the

 pointed on a committee to prepare in-

 to the above. Price, 10 cents.

 best way to preserve them is to pro- 

 cure a binder and put them in. They
