. American bee journal. Bee culture; Bees. «-^. ^oumiiJ^iLi y 42dYEAR. CHICAGO, ILL,, MAY 29, 1902, No, 22. ^ Editorial. ^ ^ The Denver Convention.—Don't decide ott the route to take east ot Denver until you see tlie announcement we expect to malce soon in these columns. We think we are going to be able to tell you the cheapest as well as the quiclvest way to go, especially for all who are going east ot Omaha. So please wait a bit until you have seen our announcement. The Illinois Pood Commissioner, Hon. A. H. Jones, has just recently sent out his Second Annual Report.

Both may in general be considered good authority, but in the present case one or the other must have the preference. Possibly the obliging editor ot Gleanings may offer some middle ground so that both may be followed. Honey in Old Oil-Cans.—We have re- cently had some experience with some West- ern honey that was put into oil-cans. It makes us feel like publishing the names of the bee-keepers who put it up. They deserve just such notoriety as that. We shipped some ot this honey to a customer in Massa- chusetts, and here is his report on It: Mt Dear Mr. York:
