50,000 Copies "Honey as a Health-Foor 

 To Help Increase the Demand for Honey 



We have had printed an edition o£ over 50,000 copies of the 16-page pamphlet on 

 Honey as a Health-Food." It is envelope size, and just the thing to create a local demand 

 for honey. 



The first part o£ it contains a short article on " Honey as Food," written by Dr. C. C 

 Miller. It tells where to keep honey, how to liquefy it, etc. The last is devoted to "Honey 

 Cooking Recipes " and "Remedies Using Honey." It should be widely circulated by those 

 selling honey. The more the people are educated on the value and uses of honey as a food, 

 the more honey they will buy. 



Prices, prepaid-SampIe copy for a 2-cent stamp : 50 copies for 90 cents ; 100 copies for 

 $1.50 ; 250 copies for $3.00 : 500 for $5.00 : or 1000 for $9.00. Your business card printed free at the 

 bottom of front page on all orders for 100 or more copies.

A hive at your shop is worth ten at the 

 factory — when the swarm is hanging 

 on the limb. Goods purchased now 

 can be made ready for later use. We 

 have them, and they are Root's goods, 

 too. Send for catalog.
