SS5 West Madls6n Street.. C'hlcano, III. 



A new edition, revised and enlarged, 

 tiie new pages being devoted to iieto 

 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 

 thern far and wide. Single copy 6 

 cents, postpaid; per dozen, 50 cents; 

 per hundred, $4.00. On orders of 100 

 or more, we print, if desired, on the 

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

 (giving the name and address of the 

 bee-keeper who scatters them). This 

 alone will pay him for all his trouble 

 and expense— enabling him to dispose 

 of his honey iit home, at a good profit. 



^p^jectal notices. 



l^" The Amerian Express Company 

 money order system is the cheapest, 

 safest and most convenient way of re- 

 mitting small sums of money. Their 

 rates for f 1 to $5 are 5 cents ; over $5 

 to $10, 8 cents. They can be pur- 

 chased at any point where the com- 

 pany have an office, except Canada, 

 and can be made payable at any one 

 of the company's 4,000 offices. 



For safety, when sending money to 

 this office get either a post office or ex- 

 press money order, a bank draft on 

 New York or Chicago, or register the 

 letter. Postage stamps of anv kind 

 may be sent for amounts less than one 

 dollar. Local checks are subject to a 

 discount of 2.5 cents at Chicago banks. 



The Apiary Register. 



All who intend to be sy.stematic in 

 their work in the apiary, should get a 

 copy and commence to use it.

" 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 numbers, and still keep the record 

 all together in one book,and are there- 

 fore the most desirable ones.
