Hives and Horses 



A Little Talk on Economy. 



No one with any knowledge of horses 

 would be likely to answer an advertisement 

 offering a horse for sale at the low price of 

 twenty-five dollars. There are horses and 

 horses, but good horses are not cheap. 



So there are bee-hives and bee-hives, and 

 a hive advertised at a low price is likely to 

 prove, when purchased, a very poor invest- 

 ment. 



HOOT bee supplies are admittedly the 

 best, and no other supplies " just as good " 

 can be bought cheaper. Beware of shoddy 

 imitation goods offered at cut prices. 



A case in point is that of a Roseville, Ohio, 

 man, who, seeing sections advertised at less 

 than the standard price, ordered some. 

 They proved to be of very poor quality, and 

 many were broken in the process of folding. 

 It was an expensive experiment. He now 

 buys ROOT sections from PEIRCE. The 

 ROOT-PEIRCE combination always means 

 best goods, best service, best treatment.

 needed for bees. Order in February and

 quire, lowest i^rices will be quoted you by
