Conventions.- The time for holding Bee- 

 Keepers' Conventions will soon be here, and 

 we cannot give any better advice than this : 

 Let each one attend who can do so, and take 

 part in making these meetings interesting 

 and instructive. If you have not already 

 obtained the " Bee-Keepers' Convention 

 Hand-Book," do so at once to post yourself 

 up on how to conduct such meetings cor- 

 rectly. It contains a simple Manual of 

 Parliamentary Law and Rules of Order for 

 the guidance of officers and members of 

 of Local Conventions— Model Constitution 

 and By-Laws for a Local Society— Pro- 

 gramme tor a Convention, with Subjects for 

 Discusson— List of Premiums for Fairs, etc. 

 Bound in cloth, and suitable for the pocket. 

 Price, 50 cents. We will club this book and 

 the Ajierican Bee Journal for one year 

 for $1.30. 



Win you Exhibit at tbe Fair t If so, 



we will supply you all the copies of the Bbe 

 JotTRNAL that you may desire to distribute 

 to the bee-keepers you may meet there. We 

 also have colored posters to put up over 

 exhibits of honey, wax, supplies, etc. Send 

 for them early, so as to be sure to have 

 them on hand in time. They will cost you 

 nothing, but we should like to have you get 

 up a club for the Bee Joubnal, if you can 

 possibly do so. 



We have a few Sets of the Bee Jouk- 

 NAL for the present year, and can fill orders 

 until further notice, for all the numbers 

 from the first of last January. New sub- 

 scribers desiring these bacli numbers, will 

 please to state It plainly, or they will not 

 be sent. 



Should any Subscriber receive this 

 paper any longer than it is desired, or is 

 willing to pay for it, piease send us a postal 

 card asking to have it stopped. Be sure to 

 write your name and address plainly. Look 



AT YOUR WRAPPER LABEL, 



We are sometimes aslted who our 



authorized agents are. Every subscriber is 

 such an agent ; we have no others, and we 

 greatly desire that each one would at least 

 send in the name of one new subscriber 

 with his own renewal for 1888. The next 

 few weeks is the time to do this. We hope 

 every subscriber will do his or her best to 

 double our list of subscribers.
