GLEANINGS IN BEE CULTURE 



" If Goods are wanted Quick, 

 send to Pouder." 



When you are in urgent need of bee supplies you will likely 

 consider two details — quality and promptness. For about a 

 quarter of a century I have handled the Root quality of 

 goods, shipping from Indianapolis at the factory schedule of 

 prices. I believe it is generally admitted that as to mate- 

 rial, workmanship, and accuracy, their equal is not to be 

 had elsewhere. An immense stock on hand at all times, 

 and no old or inferior goods offered at any price. Nearly 

 every order is filled within a few hours after arrival, and 

 you will agi^ee with me that this feature is the finest adver- 

 tising that I have ever been able to place on my house. 

 We have so many railroads and express companies at our 

 command that shipping promptly from here is not a hard- 

 ship. The parcel post is a boon to all of us, and these pack- 

 ages are taken up by Uncle Sam three times a day. 



Frequently a delay in delivering goods means a heavy loss 

 to the beekeeper. If you are in need of more sections, 

 foundation, shipping-cases, paper honey-jars, glass jars, or 

 any thing required about the bees, I believe I can make it 

 to your advantage to write me. My catalog mailed free to 

 any address ; but if more convenient you may use the Root 

 catalog in ordering, prices being the same. 



I am in need of more beeswax, and I should be glad to have 

 you send your wax here on a cash or trade basis, and you 

 will find me prompt with returns.
