Two separate mentions of a need of additional capital were made in the associated article. Volume 11, issue 1 of January 1883 lists King, Keith & Co. of New York with Albert J. King as editor. They announced a new title of Bee and Poultry Magazine; the change only affected volume 11. The May issue announced the dissolution of King, Keith & Co. with O. P. Keith leaving business responsibilities to King, and returning to the restaurant business. John Aspinwell purchased an interest in the magazine which will now be published by King & Aspinwall.
