To the Attention of Beekeepers

On the 21st of June of this year, at the apiary of K. Shalkevich in Kalvaryja Yerusalimskaya, near Vilnia, 8-day beekeeping courses will begin, open to everyone, since the fee is only 3 zlotys. They will cover the whole management of the American hive with supers (Dadant), the making of foundation, that is, artificial combs, and the cultivation of honey plants.

— Shalkevich's apiary is worth a visit. Good order, tidiness and a great love for his work strike the eye at every step; and the courses can bring great benefit to our home-grown beekeepers and show in practice the advantage that American hives with supers have over all others: Levitsky's, the Warsaw ones and so on, and all the more over the log hives, the "uprights" and the "horizontals", which could already boldly take their place in museums of antiquities.
