"Where are tlie Apes-?— 



Crof ton Croker relates that . he once 

 heard a lady in the " swell " society of 

 London say to another : " We are 

 going to have an apiary in our new 

 garden. Won't it be fine?" "Yes," 

 was the hesitant reply ; " but where are 

 you going to get the apes ?"

Lots of Replies. 



During the year 1888, we had an adver- 

 tisement running in the American Bee 

 Journal, and we had the same in several 

 Daily and Weekly papers, but to our surprise 

 we received more than double the number 

 of responses from the advertisement in the 

 American Bee Journal, than from all our 

 others combined. 



The fact that we are still receiving letters 

 referring to our advertisement in the Bee 

 Journal, shows that it is preserved and read 

 long after it is received. Newspapers are 

 read and thrown aside and that ends it, but 

 the Bee Journal is preserved, and the 

 advertisements are often noticed and bring 

 responses long after they appeared in it. 



We regard the American Bee Journal as 

 a first-class advertising medium.
