MARCH, APRIL, MAY 



And the months hurry on to the bee- 

 keepers' harvest. You will want to be 

 ready for it with a full line of Root sup- 

 plies and enough Airco Foundation to 

 see you through. Later, delays will be 

 costly indeed. A single hour of idleness, 

 in the days of honey flow, in ten colonies 

 of bees counts up in dollars and cents.

 Everbearing strawberries. The coming sea- 

 son means big money for berry growers. On 

 trial grounds our stock ii proven before we 

 sell. Our plants arc the kind that grow,
