"A Square Deal." 



We believe that every advertisement in this 

 paper is backed by a responsible person. But 

 to make doubly sure we will make good any loss 

 to paid subscribers sustained by trusting any 

 deliberate swindler advertising in our display 

 columns, and any such swindler will be publicly 

 exposed. We protect subscribers against 

 rogues, but we do not guarantee to adjust trif- 

 ing differences between subscribers and honest 

 responsible advertisers. With regard to the 

 classified columns, we can not protect our read- 

 ers from what they consider bad trades, where 

 there is room for a good deal of difference of 

 opinion, This would be Impossible; but we do 

 protect them from all deadbeats and swindlers. 

 Of course we are not responsible for the debts 

 of an honest bankrupt sanctioned by the 

 courts. Notice of the complaint must be sent to 

 us within one month of the time of the transac- 

 tion, and you must have mentioned Gleanings 

 iH Bee Cultubb when writing the advertiser. 



One of the most useful articles around a rural 

 home is a two-wheeled cart such as that shown in 

 our advertising columns by the Lansing Wheelbar- 

 row Co., of Lansing, Michigan. Such a vehicle will 

 save a great deal of heavy lifting, and earn its first 

 cost in a variety of ways, at the same time greatly 

 relieving the owner or user of much of the more 

 laborious kinds of labor which usually goes under 

 the short title of " odd jobs." Generally speaking, 

 a bee-keeper has a variety of uses for just such a 

 cart. Write for prices to the company. 



THE TIME TO BUY QUEENS. 



Probably September is the best month in all the 

 year to purchase queens. One reason is, they can 

 be more easily and quickly obtained at this time of 

 the year. It is also a very convenient season for 

 most of us to introduce a new queen, as, with the 

 great majority, the honey has been cleaned up and 

 is out of the way by this time. Even if supers are 

 on to catch the fall flow it will pay to have a queen 

 on hand to introduce. These young queens will do 

 much less swarming next season than queens that 

 are a year older— they will stand the winter better, 

 and lay earlier. Expert poultrymen all know the 

 great importance of pullets for getting eggs in win- 

 ter and early spring, and it seems young queens are 

 like pullets. The practice of requeening every year 

 is becoming common, and the time to do it is right 

 now. Look over our list of queen-breeders and de- 

 cide for yourself what you will do. We mean this 

 for the average bee-keeper who has neither the 

 time nor inclination to engage in rearing queens for 

 his or her own use. This also is a good time to weed 

 out undesirable queens before you forget their poor 

 work during the past season, no matter how old or 

 how young they may be. They are not likely to do 

 better next year.
