The Bee-keepers' Review 



For March has for a frontispiece one of the most 

 beautiful winter-scenes that it has heen my lot to wit- 

 ness. It is the apiary of Mr. P. J. Miller, of London, 

 Ont.. Canada, who tells how he makes a success of 

 hauling honey home to extract it, using- a gasoline- 

 engine as power to run the extractor. Mr. Miller 

 says that with his system of management he can 

 manage 500 colonies alone. 



Mr E. F. Atwater, of Idaho, tells how he success- 

 fully managed an apiary 36 miles from home, warm- 

 ing up the last batch of honey in a 12x16 honey-house 

 before extracting it. 



The April issue shows how to protect a hive with 

 tarred felt by tying it on— only the work of one min- 

 ute, and one man can do the work alone. 



Mr. Townsend is continuing his series of articles on 

 " Helpful hints for Extensive Bee-keeping," and he 

 makes the articles very seasonable, and very helpful. 



The foregoing are only a few of the good things 

 that may be found in these issues of the Review; but 

 they show the character of the reading that maybe 

 found in the Review. 



There are still a few sets of the Review for 1906 on 

 hand, and, as long as they last, a set will be sent 

 free to each subscriber for 1907. 



The book, Advanced Bee Culture, is $1.20; or with 

 the Keview, only $2.00 for both.
