408 THE BEEKEEPERS' REVIEW 



cultural college. Our National Secretary should take in hand 

 states where no association is formed and see that said state is 

 properly represented by a demonstrator. Then there may be 

 states where for some reason the state secretary does not act, in 

 such case the National Secretary should act instead. Now is the 

 time to "get busy.") 



We at this office have just been informed that we are to be fur- 

 nished with an official copy of our National constitution, as ap- 

 proved by the delegates at Denver last February, in a few days and 

 we hope it will reach this office in time so it will appear in the 

 December number of the Review. 



Michigan's Fiftieth Annual Meeting 



On December 15 and 16, the Michigan beekeepers will hold 

 their fiftieth annual meeting at Grand Rapids, Michigan. 



This meeting promises to be one that will set a new record in 

 interest and attendance, and one that will be remembered by those 

 present as the best ever. 



One of the special features will be a banquet supper on the 

 evening of the fifteenth. This banquet is the gift of Messrs. G. B.

 seems to add a finishing touch to any gathering, and we feel sure 

 the beekeepers will show Messrs, Lewis and Woodman their appre-

The program will be brimful of good things and many of the 

 notables of the beekeeping world will be there. Full particulars 

 of program will be published next month. 



The headquarters of the association will be the Eagle Hotel. 

 This hotel has been our headquarters on many previous occasions 

 and is well known to beemen. Rooms range from 75 cents up. 



Many beekeepers do not attend meetings of this kind because 

 they fail to realize their full value. The program alone will repay 

 the trouble of attending, but this is only a part. The beekeeper 

 who wants to learn more about his bees or about disposing of his 

 crop of honey is usually able to obtain this information in personal 

 discussions with the other beekeepers present. Send us in your 

 questions any time and we will endeavor to answer them in a satis- 

 factory manner at the meeting. 



Every beekeeper in Michigan is invited to attend, and is ex-
