COMBFOUNDATION^ECTIONS 



<p I • I I The name of our famous line of bee-keepers' supplies 



rfllCOn DrSriU which for nearly thirty years has been noted for that fine 

 workmanship and material which have forced others to make 

 a better grade of goods. NONE ARE OUR EQUALS YET ! 

 Our workmen, who have learned the making of our brand 

 of bee-goods, are still with us, and our customers are assured 

 of that high grade of excellence which we have maintained 

 in the pa^. 

 , . "Falcon" foundation has won a reputation on account 



(llir rQUnu3tlOn *^* *** perfedl manufacture, its cleanness, toughness, and the 

 UUI lUUIIUUllUll readiness with which bees accept it. No acid or other in- 

 jurious substances which destroy the "life" of foundation 

 are used in our special process. We clarify the bei^ grades 

 of pure beeswax, and by our process of sheeting subjedl it to 

 enormous pressure until it finally passes through perfect 

 foundation-mills, and is cut, papered, and boxed, ready for 

 shipment. S \MPLE FREE. Every pound equal to samples. 

 Write for prices. Highest price,cash or trade, paid for Beeswax. 

 We were the first to produce a polished setftion, and we 

 VOPJinnC have yet to see any sections equal to ours. Our special ma- 



U U U 1 1 U 1 1 U chines for sanding and polishing sections give bright, smooth, 



polished sections which can not be equaled. We use only 

 selected basswood, the white part of the timber only being 

 used. We furnish all styles of sections and supers for the 

 same at one uniform price for beeway and one for plain.

For northern localities there is no better hive for out-of- 

 door wintering than the air-spaced, and it is just as conven- 

 ient for summer management. An air space is the least con- 

 ductor of sudden changes in temperature, and our Air-spaced 

 Hives have given perfedt satisfaction in the hands of practical 

 bee-keepers in the North everywhere. The air-chamber may 

 be filled with chaff if one desires. T he same frames, supers, 

 UjtlpQ covers, and other fixtures are used as with the Dovetailed 



***^®^' PRICE OP AIR-SPACED HIVES

Air-spaced hives are cheaper than chaff-packed hives or than 

 Dovetailed hives with winter cases, and are much less trouble, 

 as bees do not have to be packed in fall and unpacked in spring. 

 We have on press a booklet for beginners, " Simplified Bee- 

 keeping," and a circular of Beginners' Outfits. These give 

 complete in^rudtions for the beginner, and we shall be pleased 

 to place on our list the names of all who reque^ them; and as 

 soon as printed, copies will be mailed free.
