SHOW-CASE 



FOR EXHIBITING HONEY. 



Prospects are very favorable for a good honey 

 crop this season; and the question will soon be 

 pressing itself home to every bee-keeper. How can 

 I dispose of my honey to the best advantage? I be- 

 lieve the majority will agree that it is most profita- 

 ble to work up the home trade. To do this to the 

 best advantage your honey should be put on sale in 

 the most tasty manner at one or more of your gro- 

 cery stores. A show-case like the above sets the 

 honey off to the best advantage, besides keeping 

 out dust and tlies and meddlesome fingers. Price, 

 crated ready for shipment, $4.00. With name and 

 address, $4.50. This is $iM lower than we sold 

 them for a year ago, because we make them our- 

 selves. A. I. ROOT, Medina. O.

Zxa. 12 Colors, a.-b $S.OO per lOOO. 



When Mr. James Abbott, of London, Eng., was 

 with us a year ago, he had samples of a very neat 

 lithograph label, oblong in shape, measuring2i8x3f8. 

 We mentioned them at the time in Gleanings, 

 agreeing to send samples as soon as we received 

 them. Well, they have just come to hand, although 

 we ordered .50,000 over a year ago. They are about 

 the nicest labels we ever saw for glass tumblers, 

 pails, and small packages of honey. Wc will mail 

 a sample inclosed in our label catalogue, free on 

 application, and will furnish them postpaid at the 

 following prices: 5 cts. for 10; 40cts. for 100: $1.25 

 for 5tK); $3.00 for 1000. A. I. Root. Medina, O. 



LEPAGE'S LIQUID GLUE. 



Few words of praise are neces- 

 sary for this excellent article, so 

 widely known and advertised. It 

 is one of the best of liquid glues. 

 Always ready for use. Mends 

 every thing. We have 4 different- 

 sized packages. 



Glass bottle like the adjoining 

 cut for 10 cts.; 75 cts. for 10; $7.00 

 per 100. Half - gill tin cans with 

 screw cap, and brush fastened to 

 inside of cap, price 15 cts. each; 

 $1.10 for 10; $10..50 per 100. This 

 latter can be sent by mail for 10c. 

 extra for postage and packing. 



Gill tin can with brush, 30 cts.; 

 10 for $1.50; 100 for $14.00; H-pint 

 tin cans, no brush, 35 cts.; $3.30 



for 10; $31.00 per 100. 

 LePage's Mucilage, in large bottles, with a nice 

 enamel-handle brush, at 10 cts. each; 75 cts. for 10; 

 $7.00 per 100. This is the best mucilage made, and 

 will do nicely in many cases for glue, although it is 

 pretty thin to be used as glue. „ ,, ^. „
