FINEST LOT OF SUPPLIES EVER BOUGHT. 



I The goods .you sent me some time ago were receiv- 

 I ed in good shape, and they were all first-class. It 

 was the finest lot of bee-sujiplies I ever bought.

OUR DOVETAILED WORK. 



I have to supply most of the farmers around liere 

 with hives and sections. 1 got a g.iod man.y hives 

 from another party last season (the Dovetailedi. I 

 got them some cheaper, but I found that they were 

 dearer in the long run, as they were not as neatly 

 finished as yours, so 1 want no'more of them. 



Poneto, Ind., Ma y 14. J. W. Cook. 



Goods all received in flne condition. T thank you 

 for promptness, and the good manner of packing. 

 1 now have some over a hundred young laying 

 queens, daughters of the last imported queen re- 

 ceived from you. It is too late in the season to re- 

 port them, but can say they are starting in right, 

 and fill the Langstroth frames from end to end with 

 eggs. I will give them a chance to hustle next sea- 

 son. C. Klock.
