THE BEE-KEEPERS' REVIEW. 



PFLJl 



LA 



^ 



Tlie distinctive features of the Bee - Keepeks' ttEViEW are those of reviewing current 

 apicultural literature (pointing out errors and fallacies and aDowing nothing of value to pass 

 unnoticed) and the making of " special numbers "—those in which special topics are discussed by 

 the best bee-keepers of the country. If you wish for the cream (if the other journals, already 

 skimmed and dished up, and to learn the views of the most experienced bee-keepers upon the 

 unsolved, apicultural problems of the day, read the Review. Published monthly at ^1.00 a year.

A^^HA^T OTHEHS SA^Y. 



O. H. TOW/HSE/SD, Alamo, Mich., writes : 



" — never waited here for any other 



paper to be read until the Review commenced 

 coming." . 



ARTHUR C. .^\II-JLER, Providence, R. I., 

 writes that "there is no paper the coming of 

 whicli I look forward to, or miss so much w)ien 

 over-due, as tliat of the Review, and I take 

 nearly all the hi o papers published in the Eng- 

 lish language, as well as several other periodi- 

 cals." 



O. 5- COAVPTOfi, Goshen, Ind., writes : 

 "The Review lias been worth— well, I will not 

 attempt to place a value upon it — but this much 

 1 must say, it is looked for days before its time 

 and no matter how many other bee i)apers or 

 even letters are received at the same time, the 

 Review is opened first." 



sayi 



>. /\. RUSSEUL, New Market, Canada, 

 s: "lam p>abed with the Review, as yon 

 have such ahanpy manner of stating practical 

 facts without so much of this ' what may liave 

 been done, or what we might have tried if our 

 patient had noi 'ied.' " 



C. K. BiXL.eR, Hoyt. Iowa, writes as fol- 

 lows : "I think the Review away ahead of any 

 bee paper I read, and I read several. It is cer- 

 tainly pure and clean and free from mud-sling- 

 ing ; wliile, from a literary point of view, it 

 stands above every other bee paper. I was glad 

 when Dr. Miller induced you to give up that "we." 



When the Review started I thought it was to 

 be simply a Heddon hive circular, but I am glad 

 to say I was mistaken. You sometimes give the 

 hive a lift, but such action is all right if the hive 

 IS the "ne plus ultra," which I am beginning to 

 believe."
