From the looks of our Wax Rendering 

 Department some of your wives read 

 our advertisements. As soon as they 

 read about saving the muss around the 

 house and her wash boiler she must 

 have said, "John you send that old 

 comb to MUTH. No more mussing 

 around this place. " 

 Send for shipping tags or mark your 

 name and ours plainly on the barrels. 

 We will render the old comb and pay 

 you the market price for wa.\ less 5c

DO YOU USE ALUMINUM HONEYCOMBS? 



IF NOT, WHY NOT? 



Each comb is in itself a valuable asset to any apiary. It is the only comb which 

 enables BEEKEEPERS TO OBTAIN ALL THE HONEY without waiting for 

 the bees to draw out foundation. THEREBY SAVING TIME AND MONEY. 







We can prove that no practical BEEKEEPER can afford to be without the 



ALUMINUM HONEYCOMB 



In a recent issue of a National Bee Publication the following question and its answer appeared: 



Q. What is the total cost of a fully drawn out wax comb? 

 A. The mininum cost of drawing out a wax comb is 50 cents. 



PRACTICAL BEEKEEPERS are buying ALUMINUM HONEYCOMBS because they 



Cannot be destroyed by moths or rodents 

 Make extracting of honey easy 

 Contrt)l production of drones 

 Can be sterilized 



Prevent loss by melting 

 Increase production 

 Last ff)rever with reasonable care 

 Cost no more than wax combs
