THE BEE-KEEPERS' 



REVIEW. 



ABOUT Jan. 10, 1888, we shall begin 

 the publication of a 16-page monthly 

 having the above title. 



As indicated by its name, one of Its dis- 

 tinctive features will be the reviewing of 

 current apicultural literature. Errors and 

 fallacious ideas will be faithfully but court- 

 eously pointed out, while nothing valuable 

 will be passed unnoticed. But few articles 

 will be copied entire, but the Ideas will be 

 extracted, given in the fewest words possi- 

 ble, and commented upon when thought 

 advisable. 



Another feature will be that of making 

 each number, to a certain extent.what might 

 be termed a" special "number. For instance 

 a large share of the correspondence, edito- 

 rials and extracts of the first number will be 

 devoted to the subject of, "Disturbing Bees 

 in Winter." 



Our own apiary will, hereafter, be largely 

 experimental, and of this our readers will 

 have the benefit. 



The price of the REVIEW will be 50 cts. 

 per year : and while we have not the slight- 

 est objection to receiving subscriptions in 

 advance, our only request is, that each one 

 interested will send his address, and allow 

 Uncle Sam to hand him a copy of the first 

 issue as soon as it is printed.
