 not write anything for publication on 

 the same sheet of p-iper, unless it can 

 be torn apart without interfering with 

 either portion of the letter. The edi- 

 torial and business departments are 

 separate and distinct, and when the 

 business is mixed up with items for 

 Dublication it often causes confusion. 

 They may both be sent in one envelope 

 but on separate pieces of paper. 



Bee Pasturage a Necessity.— We have 

 just issued a new pamphlet giving our 

 views on this important subject, with 

 suggestions what to plant, and when 

 and how. It is illustrated with 26 en- 

 gravings, and will be sent postpaid to 

 any address for 10 cents.
