Friend Putnam;— . . r , • . 



Yours saying that you would tend the sections in a few days is here. 



Thank you. . . , , , . r .x. 



Ever since nailing up those hives, I have felt like writing and thanking you tor the 

 excellent material and workmanship. The lumber is practically clear lumber, and the 

 workmanship simply perfect— everything smooth :ind accurate. If every shipment that 

 you send out is like this, you will evemually have more business than you can look 

 after Yours Truly,

My new FOREMAN in the bee-hive work has arrived. That he held various pr.si- 

 tions in the factorv of the A I. Root Co., for 9 years and now comes to me with their 

 recommendations'should prove a sufficient guarantee of the work we are now turning out. 



THE RURAL BEE KEEPER 



Upon request I will mail at least one copy of my publication, the "Rural Bee- 

 Keeper" to you, and will ask you to tell me what you think of it. I do not pretend to 

 know all about bees but I have made them a .study for over 20 years, and the people who 

 write articles for my paper, are all practical men and women of long experience. We 

 can't tell you all we know in one i.ssue— orin one year. Perhaps the issue you will re- 

 ceive will not touch upon the .subjects that interest you. But we have a question depart- 

 ment, and every month we answer such questions as our leaders ask us, and we try to 

 make each i.s.sue valuable on one or more topics. The April Number will be of interest to 

 you, becau.se it tells all about a movement on the part of organized Bee-Keepers to im- 

 prove the demand and the price obtainable for honey. We have been telling you how to 

 produce honey, now we are going to help you get a fair price for your honey. During the 

 first year, our price for the "Rural Bee-keeper" was 50 cents p;r year. We enlarged 

 with'Vol. 2, No. I, and will hereafter charge $1.00 per year

 Dear Sir: — 



Enclosed please find money order for another year's subscription to your 

 splendid paper "The Rural Bee- Keeper:" I take several other bee papers but the "Rural 

 Bee-Keeper" is second to none. Kvery issue is improving, and the bee-keepers of Wis- 

 consin can feel justly proud of such an excellent paper. Everj' issue has been worth more 

 than a year's subscription to me. 



Wishing you the best of success with the "Rural Bee-Keeper" and don't forget to 

 put me down as a life long subiscriber. Hoping you will have a prosperous year I am, 



Yours Truly, 



E. H. HANSELMAN.
