IViley, Chief Chemist of the Department of Agriculture at Wash- ington, is " shown up " in Gleanings in Bee- Culture for Aug. 1st. We mean that a splendid picture of him and a biographical sketch were given. Prof. W. is Chairman of the Joint Committee having in charge the World's Congress of Chemists, which is to meet here in Chicago on the 21st of this month. We hope to meet him at that time, Bro. Hasiity, the Iiei'icw\s Condensed Viewer of Current Bee-Writings, said a great many very interesting things about the old American Bee Journal, in the July Bee-Keejjers'' lieview. We are going to try to merit at least the greater part of his generous compliments, though we know we don't measure up to all of them. Many thanks to Bros. Hasty and Hutchinson—to the former for his good " view," and to the latter for his good Re-view. Mr. J. M. Hooker, a life member of the British Be^Keepers' Association, and a very genial gentleman, called on us last week. He lives near London, England, and had come to visit the World's Fair, having been deputed by the above bee-association to look after their honey exhibit, and to arrange for its disposal at the close of the Fair. We enjoyed Mr. Hooker's call very much, and trust that he may have a safe return to his far-away home, and bear with him pleasant memories of his visit to America. Hon. K. L. Taylor's first report as Michigan's apiarian experimenter, is given on page 212 of this number
