Conventions. — The time for holding 

 Bee-Keepers' Conventions has now arrived, 

 and we cannot give any better advice 

 than this : Let each one attend who can 

 do so, and take part in making these meet- 

 ings inljerestlng and instructive. If you 

 have not already obtained the "Bee-Keep- 

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

 to post yourself up on how to conduct such 

 meetings correctly. It contains a simple 

 Manual of Parliamentary Law and Kules 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 81.35. 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. 



We 'Want 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 Journal, to show it by sending 

 us one or more new subscribers. We will 

 give them full value for their money. 



Siniinins' I\on-SM' arming Sys- 

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

 and we will club them with the American 

 Bee Journal for one year, both postpaid, 

 for S1.25. The subscription to the Bee 

 Journal can be for next year, this year, or 

 may begin anew at any time. 



■%Ve Have some copies of the old edition 

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

 the old price, $1.2.5. The price of the new 

 edition is 81.50 per copy ; a notice of which 

 may be found on page .579. 



A Home Mai-ket for honey can be 

 made by judiciously distributing the

 much to foster art in America, " The Na- 

 tional Academy of Design," has its history 

 well told by A. S. Soutliworth, in the open- 

 ing article of Frank Leslie's Popular 

 Monthly for October, It is illustrated with 

 views of the building, and portraits of its 

 Presidents. The stories and adventures in 

 the number are all attractive and well illus- 

 trated, and some, like " Venezuela and 

 Great Britain," by Almont Barnes, of no 

 little value.

 as to the spelling of words, and to determine
