head and put the new swarm in that hive. 

 I did so, and although I smoked them both 

 thoroughly, the goldens killed every one 

 including the queen, of the new swarm. 



While in Montrose recently I was taken 

 out in a carriage to visit the farms. There 

 are a number of bee-keepers there, and the 

 honey-flow is always very good, they told 

 me; but they also told me that it was 

 almost impossible to make new swarms 

 stay in the hive. They cluster all right, 

 and go into the hive as usual, but in two or 

 three days they leave and start northeast, 

 directly towards the east end of the Grand 

 Mesa, and about the deepest part of the 

 Black Canyon of the Gunnison, which is 13 

 miles from Montrose. The bee-men think 

 the bees find homes in the rocks, and say 

 that thousands of swarms have gone there.

NEW YORK. N. Y., Sep^. 23.— The market 

 for comb and extracted honey is now open. 

 Comb honey is not arriving as freely as ex-

 time ol the year. Of extracted honey there Is 

 quite a supply on the market: Calitornia and 

 Southern with a fair demand. We are quoting

Reinersville. Ohio, Nov. 1, 1895. 



T beg to Hnaounce to tbe bee-keepers in pen- 

 eral. that I have madearraog-ements with The 

 A. I. Root To.. Medina. Ohio, to manufacture 

 "The Golden Combined Hive-Cover and 

 Feeder," as illustrated and described in the 

 AnuTit'an Bee Journal, page 213. April 4, 

 1895. excepting the Teed receptacle is made 

 perpendicular instead of beveled: also leav- 

 ing out the feed dish, from thefact that al- 

 most all bep-keepers have the Simplicity Feed 

 Trays, which can be placed in the feed recep- 

 tacl'*, or a number of them, or any suitable 

 dish one may have, thus simplifying the cost 

 to a price that all bee-keepers can purchase 

 thf^m. LFor price, see advertisement on p;ige 

 721.1 



In ordering feeders, send direct to The A. 1. 

 Root Co., Medina. Ohio. 



Thanking the many for their cheering words 

 in behalf of this Feeder, I kindly bespeak a 

 trial patronHge of the Feeder and Hive-Cover, 

 by every bee-keeper in the land. 



Respectfully, J. A. Golden. 



Please Send TJs the Names of your 

 neighbors who keep bees, and we will 

 send them sample copies of the Bee 

 Journal. Then please call upon them 

 and get them to subscribe with you, and 

 secure some of the premiums we offer.
