 Beekeeper The Domestic Beekeeper will help you to produce a crop of honey, when harvested it will help you to dispose of it to 

 a good advantage. Thousands of dollars have been saved beekeepers by following the advice of the Domestic Beekeeper on the sale 

 of honey If you have received less than 25c per pound, in 60-pound cans for your best 1918 crop of extracted honev vou are likelv 

 not a subscriber to the Domestic Beekeeper, or, have not followed the advice of the editor. Isn't it about time that you got out of 

 that "rut" and sell your honey to a better advantage? The Domestic Beekeeper for 1919 will advise you from month^o month what 

 the Jobber is selling for and instruct you how to secure hu price for your product, which is usually two to three cents per pound more 

 than he will pay you Get next to this better way of selling before your 1919 crop is ready for the market, by subscribing for the 

 Domestic Beekeeper at once. 



Frorn many kind '« tters received, we will submit three late ones which will give the reader a fair idea of what our subscribers think of 

 the Domestic Beekeeper. 



Remember that it does not cost Domestic Beekeeper subscribers a cent to sell their honey to a good advantage, as we advertise it for 

 them free of cost. 



Why not every one of the readers of the American Bee Journal dig up a dollar and send it in at once and secure the twelve numbers 

 of the Domestic Beekeeper. 



The three letters referred to above follow: 



_._,,.„. T , , , Liberty Center, Ohio, November 12, 1918. 



Ine Domestic Beekeeper: I have for sale sixteen 60-pound cans of clover honey that you may list in your free list of those hav- 

 ing honey for sale. I take this opportunity to thank you for holding my last year's crop. 



I think the late W. Z. Hutchinson and yourself have done a good many more kind acts to beekeepers than any other publication 

 I know of. I expect to read your Domestic Beekeeper as long as I keep bees and can dig up the price. I surely appreciate your kind- 

 ness - S A. PALMER. 



Continental, Ohio, October 31, 1918. 



The Domestic Beekeeper: Please discontinue my name in your honey for sale column, for I am all sold out and am returning 

 checks every day. Wish I could have filled all the orders which came, as they surely came with a rush, and one large order by tele 

 graph, which was filled th; next day. Your journal is surely the best honey market journal in the whole country, as it surely keeps 

 tab on the market. Had I seen the October number before naming a price, would have asked 27c, and am sure it would have all 

 gone soon at that price, as I could have sold three times as much at the 25c mark. 



Enclosed please find a dollar for 1919 subscription to the Domestic, and thanks for your valued help. JUDSON A. JONES. 



Bagnall, Michigan, November 11. 1918. 

 The Domestic Beekeeper: Please discontinue my name in your free column of those having honey for sale, as I am all sold out. 

 Sold my white and buckwheat extracted in 60-pound cans f. o. b. here at 25c per pound. Thanking you for past favors, I remain, 



C. J. FREEMAN.
