THE AMERICAN BEE JOURNAL. 



Tremium for Club of 10 Subscribers. 



The book for every farmer is the one 

 entitled " Affleels's Farmer's and Planter's 

 Record and Account Book," in which there 

 is the most systematic, complete and conve- 

 nient arrangfement of headings for every 

 Farm Account and raemorauda of all impor- 

 tant events which may occur in connection 

 with his business. Every progressive farmer 

 ■certainly desires to make a success of his 

 occupation, and should adopt every possible 

 means of bringing about that result. He, 

 then, should have a correct knowledge of 

 his entire business, which he can have only 

 by keeping a correct account of every crop 

 produced on his farm, the cost of production 

 of ail his live stock and an itemized account 

 of all his expenses. Then at the close of the 

 year, when he takes off his balance sheet, 

 which is admirably arranged in the book 

 above referred to, he will be able to see at a 

 glance whether his farm does or does not 

 pay. 



This valuable book contains ]66 pages, 

 is nicely printed on writing paper, ruled and 

 bound, and the price is S3.00. It can be sent 

 by mail for 24 cents e.\-tra. 



We can supply these books at the publish- 

 -er's price, or will make a present of one 

 copy for every club of TEN subscribers to 

 the Weekly Bee Jodbnal for one year, with 

 $20. Four subscribers to the Monthly will 

 -count the same as one for the Weekl.v.

 will be issued next week, and tlie 

 many sample copies already ordered

"80SS" ONE-PIECE 



SECTIONS. 



EEAD THIS. 



A word of explanation In reg-ard to the 

 infringement suit on the One-Piece Section, 

 we deem necessary at this time. 



I commenced suit ag-ainst A. I. Root, in 

 the United States Circuit Court, for the 

 Northern district of (.>hio; Stanley Matthews 

 presidintr. He decided that the patent was 

 void for want of novolty. I have taken an 

 appeal to the United States Supreme Court 

 at Wa.^liiti-iton, which will decide the case, 

 and its decision will lie final. If it goes 

 UHuinst me 1 will submit, but if decided in 

 my favor, I shall expect al! who have in- 

 lrin;;i-d will pay me damages from date of 

 the patent. 



Sdine unprincipled parties are advertising 

 that the Courts have decided that the patent 

 is void. This is not the case, as it is before 

 the United States Supreme Court at Wash- 

 ington, at the present time. When that 

 Court gi\<'s its opinion it will be final, and 

 until it <l(M's, any one infringing will be liable 

 for dama^'■^'B, if the United States Suprem.e 

 Court sustains the patent.
