The Illinois State Bee-Keepers' Association met in Spring- field Feb. 2i, 1897, for a two days' session. The meeting was called to order by the President, Dr. C. C. Miller, and prayer was offered by George W. York. The Secretary's report was read and adopted as follows : THE secretary's REPORT. At our last annual meeting arrangements were made with the American Bee Journal by which every one becoming a member of the Illinois State Bee-Keepers' Association, on payment of , was entitled to a year's subscription to the American Bee Journal and a copy of the Second Aunual Report. By this plan our membership was increast a little more than 50 per cent, above 1895, and just 50 per cent, above 1894. The expense in doing this has been beyond the Income, but by the present arrangement with the American Bee Journal we are in hopes that the coming year will not overdraw on the treasury ; and as we said last year, it is more our need to increase our membership than to fill our treasury. Should the Association see proper to send out return pos- tals for reports, as done last year, we have perhaps enough on hand to last a year. Also, we had on hand about 1,000 cir- culars such as were sent out to encourage membership. We believe it is all-important that the present arrange- ment with the American Bee Journal be kept up till some- thing better can be suggested. And w
