Satisfactory [Service 



and 



The Best Bee Supplies. 



That is what we give our customers, and what we can give you if 

 you will give us the chance. We keep a large and complete stock of 

 Root's goods constantly on hand, and our largely increased facilities for 

 handling goods make it possible to give every order the most prompt 

 and careful attention. San Antonio is the shipping center of this sec- 

 tion of the country. We can save time and freight, and get goods to 

 you in better condition than to send to some more remote or less central- 

 ly located point. We base our claim for service, and the quality of our 

 goods, not alone on what we think we can give you, but what our cus- 

 tomers have had from us for years past. Just recently Mr. J. A. Sim- 

 mons, of Sabinal, wrote us as follows: 



As I have been using your supplies since March, 1903, 

 I do not hesitate to commend you and the supplies you 

 handle. Mistakes, a few have been made, but were 

 cheerfully corrected. As I have nearly 500 colonies, I 

 should know. 



We have many more letters with equally good reports. 



Catalog on request, also quotations made on large lists. 

 Weed Process Foundation. 



We are running our new plant da,j and night and are able to supply 



the very best grade of foundation very promptly, and at prices which 



we are sure will please you. A customer writing a day or two ago 



about this says: 



The foundation you worked for me has been received. 

 Your work is perfect, and in those cartons it is so con- 

 venient for the retail trade. 



We can use your wax at current prices if you have more than you 

 want worked into foundation for this season's use.
