Mel was a puttin down, and when Mr. A. I. 

 up and says, "Why, Mel, do you smoke?" 

 Mel says right back, "Not any more than-

falcon'' Beekeepers^ Supplies 



For the last forty years during our manufacture of "FALCON" supplies it 

 has been our endeavor to place upon the market the best possible line of supplies. 

 And we pride ourselves in having accomplished this. "FALCON" supplies have not 

 only been recognized as the best in this country, but also a leader in other countries. 

 Nothing expresses the superiority of the "FALCON" ware better than the many kind 

 and pleasing words we receive from our satisfied customers, and the ever-increasing 

 demand for "FALCON" supplies. 



The season is drawing nearer and beekeepers should endeavor to order early. By 

 making up your wants now you will be better fitted to go into the season with a view 

 of not only obtaining a bigger crop but to facilitate matters thruout the season. If 

 you will make up a list of requirements for quotation we shall be glad to quote.
