% of Your Wax Saved 



BY MEANS OF THE 



Hershiser Wax Press. 



WE are offering to our cus- 

 tomers this year for the 

 first time the Hershiser 

 Wax Press, a cut of which is here 

 given. This wax press has just 

 been invented and consequently 

 hrs never before been offered for 

 sale. The sale of it is entirely con- 

 trolled by the G. B. Lewis Co., we 

 having the exclusive rights. The 

 Hershiser Wax Press is not only 

 the best wax press ever put on the 

 market, but it is an almost perfect 

 device for extracting wax. We 

 will guarantee it will extract with- 

 in 1 per cent of all the wax con- 

 tained in the slumgum placed in it, 

 if properly operated. All the wax 

 presses now in common use will 

 necessarily leave in the slumgum 

 a large amount of wax, the quan- 

 tity varying from 8 to 25 per cent; 

 in other words, the Hershiser 

 Press is able to get about 7 per 

 cent of wax out of slumgum after 

 the very best of all other wax ex- 

 tractors has obtained the greatest 

 possible amount of wax from it. 

 The slumgum of the Solar Wax 

 Extractor has even yielded more 

 than 25 per cent wax after being 

 run through the Hershiser Press. 

 It is a combination of the pressure 

 and hot water methods. Owing to 

 the want of a good wax press it is 

 startling to believe, but no less 

 true, that hundreds of thousands 

 of dollars worth of wax have been 

 thrown away heretofore in the shape of good wax cast into refuse heaps. It can now be saved by 

 using the Hershiser Press. Beekeepers owning only a few colonies would do well to com- 

 bine in the purchase of a machine which would soon pay for itself. Those having between fifty or 

 one hundred colonies can save the price of one in two seasons. Beekeepers having two hundred 

 colonies or more can save several times over the cost of a machine in a single season. This press is 

 very strongly made, being constructed to stand the greatest strain to which it can be put. If you 

 are interested, be sure to send for the Hershiser Folder, giving further information and full descrip- 

 tion. It will be mailed free, on request to
