A Letter to You Quick 



If you will, write me for an estimate on the list of goods that you 

 are likely to require during the coming season. Perhaps you would like 

 to make some inquiry about some of the goods which I offer, and answer- 

 ing your letters will be a real pleasure. Some winter losses are being re- 

 ported; but beekeepers are not discouraged, and many of the losses are 

 being replaced with modern and better equipments. 



The hive question is an interesting one at this season of the year, and 

 i can supply you with any style that you may prefer — ten-frame, eight- 

 frame, metal-spaced frames, metal cover, and any surplus equipment that 

 you may wish, and also the Danzenbaker hive with any of its equipments. 

 Those of you who are getting your hives early, assembling and painting at 

 your leisure, are certainly hitting the nail on the head. Sections and 

 brood-frames with foundation attached will be found a great convenience 

 when the swarming season opens. You may require a new smoker, an 

 improved hive tool, or some of the conveniences which my catalog de- 

 scribes. Every thing of Root quality, and readers of this magazine know 

 what that means. 



If you are in need of honey I believe I can make it to your interest 

 to place your order here. A honey circular and a sample of honey free by 

 mail to prospective buyers. 



If you are accumulating some beeswax you can realize 3 1 cents per 

 pound for it by sending it here now. 



Be sure to send for my new Bee Supply Catalog.
