clearly how the jar is sealed. The rubber ring 

 between the rim of the glass top and the 

 shoulder in the opening of the jar's mouth, 

 with the pressure exerted by the spring on 

 the center of the top. makes a perfect seal 

 with continuous pressure, because of the 



These jars were designed for use in the honey 

 exhibit at the Pan-American Exposition in Buf- 

 falo, and are very neat and attractive. They have 

 cork-lined aluminum caps which seal them tight. 

 The fact that the molds are constructed for mak- 

 ing the jars by hand instead of by machine, and 

 the addition of the aluminum caps, makes the jars

We believe many bee keepers will be interested 

 in a honey-jar with spring-top fastener which we 

 show here. The following illustrations show very

spring of the metal clasp. \\'ith this kind o 

 a fastening the jar is very quickly sealed- 

 more quickly and securely than with a rim 

 The cover fits down in so neatly that, ii 

 order to remove, you may have to insert thi 

 end of the spring under the edge to pry it out 



There is a great variety of bottles and jar 

 <<i numerous sizes made with this kind o 

 fastening. Even the one and two poun< 

 Miuare honey jars may be had with this fas 

 .enin'T at an additional cost of 75 cents pe 

 iiss over those with a cork. We show her' 

 styles which seem best adapted for hon 



the round tapering jar is the one we cal 

 'on We can supply those in two size 

 — V'lb. at $4.50 per gross, and the 1 lb jar a 

 •I^S.OO per gross. Put up in partition case:

The oci.ngon jar we will not keep in stock, 

 but can ship from the factory in Ohio ai 

 $5.00 per gross for the 1-lb. size. We car 

 supply tliis to hold 3-4 lb. or 14 oz. Order? 

 should be for at least 5 gross at a time. The 

 Tip Top is a little scant measure, the 1 lb. 

 size holding 15 oz. and the half-pound about 

 lYz oz., actual weight of noney. The jars may 

 be used for fruit or preserves or pickles after 

 they aie emptied of honey, which fact adds tc 

 their yalue as a honey-jar.
