THE BEE KEEPERS' REVIEW. 



gether what I consider the greatest and 

 most important plans ever submitted to a 

 committee of bee men, when they will be 

 submitted to you for criticism. After the 

 general outline is decided upon, an attor- 

 ney can soon put it in proper shape.

 following has come to hand from Mr. 

 Brown — Ed. Review.] 



I have yours of the 20th inst, and in 

 reply beg to say that you are at liberty to 



view upon the matter seems to agree that

 honey business. 



I think that each locality where honey 

 is stored will have to have a representa-

 place the price, and deal it out to the 

 trade as the demand calls for it. Soon
