It will consist of at least 100 pages, and should be kept by every bee-keeper. Cover The cover is printed in three colors by one of the best color- printing establishments in the United States. We were not satisfied to attempt this our- selves, and have gone to great expense for the printing of this cover. The design is something unique, and very pleasing in- deed. It shows the red clover in its natural colors in all its beauty, and, altogether, will make a bee-keeper's magazine that will compare favorably with any of the literary maga- zines of the present day.

He has traveled on our account alone the pastsumnrer over 4000 miles, and we can promise something very fine ij 1905. our half-tones for this issue. In this preliminary announcement we are unable to specify defi- nitely the subjects that will be given, but those who are at all familiar with Gleanings for the past year will know that a treat in illustrations is in store for them. We can delinitely an- nounce now that some of the prize photographs in our second photographic contest, American and Foreign, will appear in this issue. Our engravings are made by the very finest engravers in the United States, insuring first- class work in every case. Writers For this issue we shall have our regular contributors, such as Dr. C. C. Miller, G. M. Doo- little. Pro
