One lu-inch Pelhani, almost new, and of the latest 

 pattern, for heavy brood foundation only. Will sell 

 for $9.00. 



EXTRA POLISHED SECTIONS. 



These are Hdmired on all sides, and we have re- 

 ceived many kind expressions from those who have 

 examined samples. Here are a few of tliem: Geo. 

 E. Hilton, Fiemont, Mich., writes, "Your .sample of 

 sections, and price, at hand, and I inclose an order 

 for 50,000, and hope to du plicate later. The samples 

 are mperh." 



Chas. L. Hill, of Dennison. O.. writes: " Your sam- 

 ples of sections, and price lists, received. We are 

 favorably impressed with the workmanship of 

 those extra polished sections, and can say you will 

 surely have an immense sale if all g-o out according- 

 to samples, in quality." An old customer in St. 

 Louis, Mo., writes, "The sample inclosed is certain- 

 ly a fine piece of work, and, should we need any in 

 future, will bear that in mind." 



We might multiply these kind words, but these 

 samples will show the drift of opinion regarding 

 these goods. We are now sunplying a number of 

 dealers who have heietofore handled other makes. 

 Though the orders are taking our output nearly as 

 fast as made, we iire preiiared to liandle more. We 

 have also insured against runninsr short of lumber. 

 We have gone to an expense of about $3il0 in 7'emod- 

 eling our drying-apparatus. The weather lieina- 

 most favorable, we have laid in the largest stock 

 of the choicest wliite basswood it has ever be^n our 

 g-ood fortune to have at one time. We are, there- 

 fore, prepared for all demands. We meet competi- 

 tion in price, and surpa.ss it in quality; if in need, 

 therefore, let us hear from you.

SHOIiT ODD-LENGTH ROLLS OF WIRE NETTING, AT 

 FULL HOLL PRICES 0[{ LESS. 



We have the following lot of wire netting of vari- 

 ous sizi's and widths in short or odd-length rolls. 

 Very often a per son wants a piece and can not buy 

 it cut from a full roll ^^ithout paying double price. 

 You may bi^ able to find in this list just what you 

 need, or very near it. Even if jou want more than 

 a full roll you will And the prices at which we offer 

 these pieces lo be irr most cases less than full-roll 

 price. 



If any can use light .3-inch-mesh netting, .5 and 6 

 feet wide, we have a few rolls that we will close out 

 as follows: 



8 rolls 3 in.. No. 19, 73 in. wide, 150 ft. long, at $3 25 



Of 2-inch mesh No. 19 wire, we have the following 

 remnants and short rolls at I c per square foot. 

 The figures at the left give the width in itrches, and 

 the other figures give the length of each piece in 

 feet. Multiply this bj- the width in feet, then take 

 three-fifths of the result to nnd the price of each 

 piece.
