THE BEE-KEEPERS' REVIEW 



381 



Bee-Keepers' Meet at Clarinda, Iowa 

 The Iowa summer meetings con- 

 tinue with unabated interest. The 

 seventh held at Clarinda on Aug. 

 12th was attended by a considerable 

 number of beekeepers from Mis- 

 souri as well as from Iowa. E. J. 

 Baxter and son, C. B. Baxter of 

 Nauvoo, Illinois, were also present. 

 M E. Darby, state bee inspector of 

 Missouri and E. J. Baxter were the 

 principal speakers. The day was 

 very pleasantly spent in the Strong 

 apiary where those present enjoyed 

 looking over the queen rearing 

 yard and equipment and indulging 

 in informal discussion of the many 

 questions of interest to bee men 

 Only one of these summer meetings 

 still remains to be held and we feel 

 that the series as a whole h'as been 

 very successful.

The Review extends thanks for 



Notice to Secretaries 



During 1913 some of our most 

 energetic Secretaries sent in over 

 40 subscribers to the REVIEW, for 

 which we are very thankful. To 

 encourage this feature of our work, 

 and for the sake of letting the 

 members know who of our Secre- 

 taries are "workers," we are go- 

 ing to keep tally during 1914 of the 

 number of subscribers each Secre- 

 tary sends in, and their names 

 with the number of subscribers 

 sent, will be published in the Re- 

 view from month to month. Not 

 with the idea of paying them for 

 their work, but as an honorary re- 

 cognition of service rendered, we 

 are going to offer the five sending 

 in the largest number of subscrib- 

 ers during 1914, a year's subscrip- 

 tion to the REVIEW for 1915. The 

 list to date stands as follows: 



James A. Stone, Illinois 117 



P. K. Kinff. Oliio 34 



Gus Dittmer, Wisconsin 23 



The National Beekeepers' Asso- 

 ciation has previously held conven- 

 tions at: Albany, N. Y. in 19 1 O.- 

 Minneapolis, Minn., 19]!; Cincinna- 

 ti, Ohio, 1913, St. Louis, Mo., 1914. 



At the time this number of the 

 Review goes to press, the directors

 vitations for the holding of the 19ir> 

 meeting next February; Philadel- 

 phia, Pa., Des Moines. Iowa, Den- 

 ver, Colo., San Francisco, Calf.,

Last Notice 



If you have neglected to send 

 in your proposed change in the Na- 

 tional Constitution until now, "do 

 it today," for they will be published 

 in the November number of the Re- 

 view. Remember if you do not get 

 your proposed change to this office 

 before the 20th of October, you 

 will be everlastingly too late and no 

 action can be taken on it at the 

 February, 1915 meeting of the del- 

 egates.
