50,000 Copies "Honey as a Health-Food" 

 To Help Increase the Demand for Honey 



We have had printed an edition of 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 of 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— Sample 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.

Sweet Clover Seed ! 



.Sweet Clover is rapidly beroniinu one of 

 the most useful things that can be grown on 

 the farm. Its value as a lioney-plant is well 

 known to beekeepers, but its worth as a 

 forage-plant and also as an enricher of the 

 soil are not so widely known. However. 

 Sweet Clover is coming to the front very 

 fast tliese days. Some years ago it was con- 

 sidered as a weed by those who knew no 

 better. The former attitude of the cnliglit- 

 ened fanner today is changing to a great re- 

 spect for and appreciation of Sweet Clover. 



both as a food for stock and as a valuable 

 fertilizer for poor and worn out soils. 



There are two kinds of Sweet Clover. One 

 is the White variety wliich grows sometimes 

 as tall as 6 to 7 feet. Theother is the Yellow, 

 which grows perhaps as high as 2 to 3 feet. 

 The latter blooms fr(»m 3 to 4 weeks ahead 

 of the White, which (the Wiiite) begins 

 blooming in the latitude of Chicago about 

 ,Iuly 1st. and continues in profuse bloom 

 until frost kills it off. It is one of the best 

 neclar-yielders known, and the honey pro- 

 duced from it is second to none. 



The seed can be sown any time from now 

 until next April or May, Prom i« Ici ;n 

 pounds per acre of the unhutled seed is 



about the right Quantity to sow. The seed 

 is not yet as plentiful as it might be. for the 

 reason that a good many who could gather it 

 don't know its value, or that there is a de- 

 mand for it sufficient to pay for the work of 

 harvesting, threshing, etc. We. however, 

 have been able to secure a quantity of the 

 unhulled White Sweet Clover Seed, which 

 unhulled is considered the best for sowing, 

 by those who have had the longest experi- 

 ence with it. We can ship promptly at the 

 following prices: 



Postpaid. I pound for 30 cents, or 2 pounds 

 for 50 cents. By express or freight, f. o. b. 

 Chicago— 5 pounds for Si.oo; 10 pounds for 

 $1.75: 25 pounds for $4.00; 50 pounds for S7.50; 

 or 100 pounds for $12.00. 



If wanted by freight, it will be necessary to 

 add 50 cents more for cartage to the above 

 prices on each order. 



If seed is desired of the Yellow Sweet 

 Clover, add 5 cents per pound to the above 

 prices.

A Bargain in Glass Jars ! 



Because we have more than we want 

 we are t,'oing to offer some all-white, flint 

 glass jars, with no lettering, and which are 

 up-to-date for less than their real value. 



The pound size can be used with either 

 corks or paper discs. The latter are much 

 cheaper, and really more desirable than 

 corks. With paper discs (the most perfect 

 stopper known), we will make the price only 

 $i.4o per gross. 



The small size holds 5 ounces of honey, 

 and it is known to the trade as the "dime 

 jar." The regular price of this size with 

 corks is $3.25 per gross; but we willletuiem 

 go at $2.25 per gross. 



The foregoing are real bargains for any 

 one who uses glass honey-jars. 



Jars will be shipped direct from Pittsburg. 

 Pa., but address all orders tn.
