 Apiary Register for 50 colonies.

To get any of the above premiums 

 for the Monthly Bee Journal send 

 double the number of subscribers, and 

 the same amount of money. 



^° Our stock of back numbers of 

 this volume are now getting very low. 

 Please look over your numbers, and 

 if any are lacking, send us a postal 

 card, giving the date of those you 

 want, and we will send them, if not 

 all gone. We give this notice, be- 

 cause, last year, several left it until 

 the end of the year, and then re- 

 quested us to send the missing num- 

 bers. Then it was too late, the num- 

 bers being all gone. Look them over 

 «o«;, and you may get them completed. 



Foul Brood Pamphlet.— Wishing to 



be relieved of sending out my pamph- 

 let on Foul Brood, I have made ar- 

 rangements with Mr. T. G. Newman 

 to supply them to the bee-keeping 

 fraternity desiring them.

 ' gravings, and will be sent postpaid to 

 any address for 10 cents. 



H^ Mr. Alley's new book on Queen 

 Rearing will hereafter cost $1.25 



We have received his Circular and 

 Price List for 1883, which contains 32 

 pages, and make a nice appearance.

 for the Bee Journal, are lettered in 

 gold on the back, and make a very 

 convenient way of preserving the Bee 

 Journal as fast as received. They 

 will be sent, post-paid, for 75 cents, for 

 the Weekly ; or for the Monthly, 50 

 cents. They cannot be sent by mail

Cyprians Conquered. 



All summer long it has been " which 

 and tother " with me and the Cyprian 

 colony of bees I have— but at last I 

 am "boss." Bingliam's " Conqueror

 smoke just at the right time, get a 

 Conqueror Smoker of Bingham.
