Onr Annual Catalogue and Pilce-Wst is herein presented to 

 onr patrons, and we would especially invite a careful perusal of it 

 before ordering supplies for the apiary. As this Catalogue contains 

 illustrations and descriptions of many of the articles enumerated, a? 

 well as prices, purchasers can easily select such as they desire, and 

 compute the entire cost of the goods ordered. Please remember th iv 

 goods oflfered at low prices are often dear, because they are generally 

 proportionately iH/e>-ior.—"£;.rcc!(c)!ce is Cheapness." 



Your full address, plainly written, is very essential In order to 

 avoid mistakes and delays. 



How Goods are to be sent, should bo distinctly stated. Any. 

 thing to Ije shipped by freight should be ordered from 10 to 30 days 

 before needed for use, according to the distance from Chicago. Express 

 charges are high on long distances, and heavy goods should not be sent 

 by Express, unless particularly needed for use at once. 



We Pay Postage on all articles quoted by mail. All others are to 

 be sent by express or freight, at the purchasers' expense. 



Ooods will be sent C.O.D. only when sufBcient money is received 

 with the order to pay charges both ways, in case they are not takeu 

 from the express ofBce by the person ordering them. 



Remit by Express Money Order, Registered Letter, or Bank Draft 

 on Chicago or New York, payable to Thos. G. Newman & Son. Checks 

 onlocalBanlts cost us 2.5 cents for collection, and if you send such, 

 add that amount, or we shall deduct it from your order. 



If Goods are damaged or not such as were ordered, do not retiirv 

 them, but write to us, and we will direct how to dispose of them. 

 r iJredit.— We sell on small margins, and cannot afford to take the risk 

 of selling on Credit. If we did a credit business, we should be obliged 

 to add from 10 to 20 per cent, to our present prices, to make up for 

 those who never pay, and for clerk-hire to keep books, etc.— this we 

 know our cash customers would not think to their advantage. In order 

 not to do injustice to anyone, we make this an invariable rule— 

 therefore do not ask us fur creMt. This system gives all the advantage tn 

 "cash customers," but the " credit system " works to their injury. We 

 therfifnre always require Cash with the Order.
