Conventions.— The time for holding 

 Bee-Keepers' Conventions has now arrived, 

 and we cannot give any better advice 

 tlian this : Let each one attend who can 

 do so, and take part in making these meet- 

 ings interesting and instructive. If you 

 have not already obtained the "Bee-Keep- 

 er's Convention Hand-Book," do so at once 

 to post yourself up on how to conduct such 

 meetings correctly. It contains a simple 

 Manual of Parliamentary Law and Rules of 

 Order for the guidance of officers and mem- 

 bers of Local Conventions— Model Consti- 

 tution and By-Laws for a Local Society — 

 Programme for a Convention, with Subjects 

 for Discussion— List of Premiums for Fairs, 

 etc. Bound in cloth, and suitable for the 

 pocket. Price, .50 cents. We will club this 

 book and the American Bee Journal for 

 one year for Sl.35. It also contains a lot of 

 blank leaves on which you can note impor- 

 tant matters as they come up. Do not fail 

 to send for a copy of it. 



■»Ve fVant 20,000 subscribers. Out of 

 the 300,000 bee-keepers in America, certainly 

 this is not an extravagant desire ! It is 

 only one out of every fifteen! We confi- 

 dently ask those who appreciate the Ameri- 

 can Bee Jotirnal, to show it by sending 

 us one or more new subscribers. We will 

 give them full value for their money. 



Sinimins' :\on-S'»vai*iiiing; Sys- 

 tem. — We have a few of these books left, 

 and we will club them with the American

 may begin anew at any time.

 of Cook's Manual left, which we will sell at 

 the old price, Sl.2.5. The price of the new 

 edition is Sl.50 per copy ; a notice of which 

 may be found on page 5T9. 



A Home itiarket for honey can be 

 made by judiciously distributing the 

 pamphlets, " Honey as Food and Medicine."

 remunerative prices. See list on the second 

 page of this naper.

 for beauty) for.S3.00 ; Untested Queens Sl.OO

 for two subscribers with $3.00. It is always 

 useful to have a dictionary at hand to decide 

 as to the spelling of words, and to determine 

 their meaning.

 Medicine " to every one who buys a package 

 of honey. It will sell lots of it.
