Home Wax Rendering- 

 Does It Pay? 



More and more are we becoming a nation of specialists. 

 In former times, for various reasons, it was advisable to 

 spin cloth at home, to make clothes, to grind flour, etc. 



Yet it is seldom that such operations are undertaken now 

 by the individual family. It does not pay. The time 

 spent, if valued at anything, would more than pay for 

 the finished product. 



Not only are you saving time, but also beeswax, as a bat- 

 tery of high-pressure steam presses under the supervi- 

 sion of a specialist can get more wax out of the same 

 amount of combs than the individual beekeeper with 

 a makeshift press on a kitchen range. 



Dear Sirs: — -Your bill for rendering beeswax, enclosing check for $21 65, 

 to pay for wax retained by you, was received yesterday. I am very much 

 pleased with the result of my sending old combs to you. The quantity 

 of wax secured is greater than I expected, and the exceeding promptness 

 with which the matter was attended to was very gratifying. If I have 

 combs of the same kind to be rendered again, I shall certainly send them 

 to you.- Feb. 16, 1919. HANNAH R. SEWELL, For st Glen, Md. 



Centlemen: — Your statement of wax rendered and bill for making same 

 into foundation are received. I inclose check for $7.93 for the balance 

 due you. You got 25 pounds more of wax out of it than I estimated, and 

 I also got rid of a messy job. FLOYD MARKHAM, Ypsilanti, Mich. 



Send us your refuse, scrapings, combs or cappings. 



When shipping same be sure to bill as "Beeswax Refuse" 

 so as to get the lowest freight rate.
