. American bee journal. Bee culture; Bees. October, 1909. American Hee Journalj land has been opened for settlement. Nearly all this development work is taking place in the alfalfa coimtry where bees do well. Most of the great land companies have their headquarters in Chicago, hence it is we can readily find the information desired by per- sonal investigation. We shall aim to get reliable information that can be de- pended on. We also expect to have a competent bee-keeper visit some of these new territories and report, and we shall also endeavor personally to cover some of this new ground from time to time. Of course, there will be no charge for such services on our part. All we is, that our read- ers will help us increase the circulation of the American Bee Journal in any way most agreeable to them. Much of the information will appear in the Jour- nal, but there are some things that can only be dealt with by private corres- pondence which shall be confidential, of course. If you are contemplating a move to a better bee-territory, feel free to avail yourself of our services. Henceforth our whole time is the prop- erty of our readers. ludiaua Fair Apiariau Exhibit At our State Fair the bee and honey industry was well represented, there being four exhibits and each of them very creditable.
