BEE HAT AND VEILS. 



Most people who handle bees wear some kii d of a 

 a veil, or bee-hat, as some call 'em. Above we show 

 the rig we prefer. The hat is one we have sold and 

 recommended for two years, and have used for five 

 or six. It is a light cloth hat. weighing onlyloz.; 

 fits any head, the inside rim having a rubber cord 

 in it. The outside rim is held out in place by a 

 spring wire. 



We make veils of four different qualities. 



No. 1 is our best veil, made of grenadine and silk 

 brussels net, or tulle face. 



No. 2 is the same without the tulle face, being all 

 of grenadine. 



No. 3 is made of mosquito bar, with tulle face. 



No. 4 is made of mosquito bar. without the tulle 

 face. 



Price— each. 



No. 1. Best veil # 75 



No. 2, Grenadine veil 60 

 No. 3. Tulle-face bar. 40 

 No. 4, Mosquito bar.. 25 

 Bee-hat... 20 



Sent postpaid, or with other goods, on receipt of 

 price. Our veils are larger and more roomy than 

 those of other makes that we have seen. They 

 have a rubber cord in the top, to draw them tight 

 around the hat. as shown in cut. The lower edge is 

 bound with a blue ribbon, and is drawn under the 

 suspenders, as shown. The grenadine veils will 

 wear much longer than mosquito-bar.
