A JUST PENALTY. 



We learn from the papers that the tramp mentioned 

 on page 1156 is to be punished to the full extent of the 

 law. and will be sent to the penitentiary for 45 years. 

 This is none too severe. I have been hoping that we 

 might soon have laws that would make the penalty 

 for such an offense the same as that for murder; and 

 I am told that such is already the case in some States. 



OUR farming, by T. B. TERRY. 



The above book, which has had such a large sale 

 for many years, and sold for $1 50, is now offered for 

 $1.00 bound in cloth, or only 50 cents in paper. It 

 contains a full account of T. B. Terry's successful 

 fight in commencing farming in a locality that was 

 not considered at all favorable. The book ought to 

 be worth many dollars to any farmer, especially 

 young farmers, who will read it and plan their work 

 accordingly. If ordered at the same time you order 

 Gleanings you can have both for $1.25 in paper cov- 

 ers, or $1 50 in cloth. 



sample copies of gleanings. 

 Our readers probably noticed that in a recent issue 

 we spoke of being out of two numbers for 1906 and two 

 more already for this year. We print 2000 extra copies 

 of each issue over and above our subscription list. A 

 large part of these are sent for sample copies to those 

 who have never seen a copy of Gleanings. Another 

 part is for those who failed to get their regular num- 

 ber or gave one of their journals to a neighbor bee- 

 keeper, etc. For various reasons there are always 

 more or less calls for a certain issue. Where any sub- 

 scriber gives any neighbor bee-keeper one of his jour- 

 nals for a sample copy we are always glad to replace 

 it free of charge; or if any particular issue fails to 

 reach a subscriber we are glad to be told of it and re- 

 place it. But where a person is not a subscriber of 

 Gleanings, and wants a copy of some special number 

 that he has seen or heard of, we shall have to tell him 

 the price is 5 cents. Of course, we always furnish a 

 sample copy to any one who wishes to see" what 

 Gleanings is like; but we reserve the privilege of 

 giving you whatever number we happen to have a sur- 

 plus of. Some years ago I became suspicious that 

 certain persons were repeatedly asking for sample 

 copies without having any idea of subscribing. I sav- 

 ed up the postal cards and reminded one person that 

 I had them on file, and advised him to send us pay for 

 what he had gotten by " sponging," and he sent the 

 pay. Of course, there is only a very small number of 

 such men in the world, who want something for noth- 

 ing. Our policy is to be liberal, and we will do almost 

 any thing for those who become interested in bee cul- 

 ture; and we always expect to furnish copies of our 

 journal free of charge to any one who is interested in 

 bees and thinks he may subscribe for our journal. 

 This one sample copy ought to be sufficient, and there- 

 fore we ask those who wish a second copy or one of a 

 particular issue to send along 5 cents for it. 



THE ARMY CANTEEN — SHALL IT BE RESTORED? 



On page 1 157 I quoted from the Cleveland Plain Deal- 

 er concerning this matter. Right here I wish to sub- 

 mit a quotation from the Woman' s National Daily, the 

 concluding part of which is right to the point —don't 

 you think so? 



' The Judge Advocate of the army explains that 

 there is a great deal of liquor-drinking by the enlisted 

 men where low doggeries are allowed in the vicinity 

 of military posts. He points out that Nebraska pro- 

 hibits drinking-resorts within two miles of military 

 posts, and two other States have laws prohibiting the
