TIN HONEY-PACKAGES 



FIVE GALLON (60-lb.) 

 SQUARE CANS. 



A live-gallon can is the favorite package for shipping 

 extracted honey. There is no shrinkage and consequent 

 leaking, no taint to the honey from wood as is so frequently 

 the case with barrels and kegs. The cans, being made square, 

 economize space, and are easily boxed. They are used ex- 

 lusively in the far West. 



SMALL SCREW-CAP 



CANS. 



Besides the five-gallon square cans 

 we list alj^o the three smaller sizes — 1, Yz, 

 and % gallon. These are furnished with 

 1 i4-inch lined screw cap like the five-gallon cans. We can also supply the five- 

 eallon cans with 4-inch screw as well as t'le \H, at 5c each extra; and with an 

 S-inch screw at 15c each extra. Latter is largely used in Texas for chunk honey. 

 Price of cans packed in boxes or crates given in the list below.
