BEE-SUPPLIES
EQUIPMENT Store room built expressly for the business ; large con-

crete basement with just enough moistuie to prevent
breakage in sections. No shrinkage in dovetailed corners of supers and
hives.
QUALITY Root goods at factory prices. The kind that I have sold for

nearly a quarter of a century, and the kind that you can afford
to recommend to your neighbors. I might have increased my profits for a
short time by handling other goods, but I would not have remained so long
in business. Many articles in my catalog can reach you by Parcel Post,
and I assume all responsibility in safe delivery of the goods. Catalog free.
