The Apiary Register 



is a valuable Book to those who are systematic in their labors in 

 the Apiary, and all who endeavor to improve their bees should 

 faithfully use this Register. We get up three sizes : 



For 50 colonies (120 pages) |1 00 



" 100 colonies (320 pages) 1 50 



" 200 colonies (420 pages) 2 00 



The larger ones can be used for a few colonies, giving room for an 

 increase of numbers, and still keep the record all together in one 

 book, and are, therefore, the most desirable ones to procure at the 

 start. We give the following notices by the bee papers of America, 

 which most thoroughly indorse its use : 



"Every bee-keeper should have a good understanding of the con- 

 dition of every colony of bees in his apiary ; he should also become 

 aware of the superior and inferior qualities of his bees, and know 

 the colonies to which these traits belong. He should record the 

 amount o£ honey, in pounds, which is taken from each colony and 

 thereby learn which colonies are the greatest honey gatherers, an* 

 therefore the moat profitable. He will thus be enabled to learn and 

 decide for himself which queens will pay him the best to breed 

 from, and how such queens look — whether the color or size decides 

 in any way the superiority, and more than one question which is 

 harrowing our minds to-day, each may settle for himself by fol- 

 lowing bee-keeping in a systematic and orderly way. When such a 

 ■day comes we predict a more harmonious and satisfactory time for 

 bee-keepers. We have long tfrged the need of systematic bee-keep- 

 ing, and one of its necessities has been brought forth by T. G. New- 

 man, of Chicago, from whom we have received a copy of the Apiary 

 Register, which was devised to contain a complete record of each 

 colony."— "Bee-Keepers' Guide." 



" The latest thing out in the way of convenience for systematiz- 

 ing work in the apiary, is an Apiary Register, gotten up by Mr. T. 

 G. Newman. Two pages of the book are devoted to each colony, 

 with rulings and proper headings, so that a glance will give its 

 complete history." — " Kansas Bee-Keeper." 



" We have just received an Apiary Register, and we must say we 

 are delighted with it. One page is devoted exclusively to the col- 

 ony on general principles, bees, honey, etc. Then the- opposite 

 page is devoted exclusively to the queen, and in the back the cash 

 account, so the whole business of your apiary can be kept together. 

 It also has a page and a half devoted to things worth knowing, a 

 glossary, and a table of abbrevations."— " American Bee-Keeper." 



" The Apiary Register, published by T. G. Newman, is a book 

 that fills a long-felt want, and one that every apiarist should have. 

 Two pages, ruled and printed, are devoted to each colony ; a single 

 glance will give i^ complete history.'—" Bee-Keepers' Instructor." 



" The Apiary Register is something new and fills a needed want 

 in the bee yard. It has only to be seen to be appreciated."— 

 " Bee-Keepers' Exchange." 



The next two pages are samples of the blank forms, and manner 

 in which they may be used.
