I — which means that all Lewis Hives are 

 made out of clear white pine, and Lewis 

 sections made out of fine bright basswood. The material in 

 these goods is the best obtainable, and selected by experts. 



I t>\Al ic Wnrkm^nchi n — The Lewis factory is equipped 

 L.CTV13 flUll\lliail31lip with the latest improved ma- 

 chinery, constantly watched over by experts. The Lewis head 

 mechanic has had thirty-flve years of bee-supply experience, the superin- 

 tendent of bee-hive department twenty-nine years; the superintendent of 

 sections twenty-eight years. These and many other skilled men have a 

 hand in all the Lewis goods you buy. 



-All Lewis Beeware is carefully and accurate- 

 ly packed. A patent woven wood and wire 

 package, made only by the Lewis Company, 



is employed largely in packing. This makes the package light, compact, 



and damage-proof. 



Years ago all goods were shipped direct from 

 the factory, with attending high freight rates 

 and delays during the honey season. Now 

 Lewis Beeware can be obtained almost at your own door. Over thirty 

 distributing houses carrying Lewis Beeware by the carload are dotted all 

 over the United States and foreign countries. Write for the name of the 

 one nearest you.
