GLEANINGS IN BEE CULTURE 



Roofs Section-Honey Boxes ! 



THERE have been very few years when the outlook for a bumper honey crop has been brighter 

 than it is now — at the opening of the season of 1912. Every indication points to an almost 

 unprecedented honey-flow, and the bee-keeper who is not making most complete prepara- 

 tions to reap the harvest will not be very well satisfied with himself when the surplus has all been 

 taken off this fall, or when he knows a big flow is on and he has no sections to put on his hives. 



Of course the section problem is the most important one to the comb-honey man, and it 

 MUST be solved right. Therefore why take risks? Why run the slightest chance of getting sec- 

 tions of uncertain quality, or experimenting at a price you can not afford to pay ? "We are the 

 largest manufacturers of Section-honey Boxes in the world— naturally we have the finest equip- 

 ment for section-making, and cut up the best lumber. We are In close touch with every phase of 

 bee-keeping— with every department of the honey trade — therefore we know the service sections 

 are required to give, and we make ROOT'S SECTION-HONEY BOXES to meet these require- 

 ments. Years of experience and satisfied section patrons throughout the world ought to count; 

 and you, Mr. BEEKEEPER, if you will buy ROOT'S SECTIONS, will understand why.
