The adjoining cut 

 shows a very convenient 

 package for mailing 

 samples of honey and 

 other liquids. Tlie cut 

 is only about half size of 

 the one we are prepared 

 to furnish, wliich holds 

 % ounce, and gives a 

 good taste of the honey 

 and some to spare. We 

 also use a very wide- 

 mouthed bottle so the 

 lioney will run out eas- 

 ily. You notice the top 

 screws on, closing it 

 tiglit and making a very 

 handy package, easily 

 opened, and accepted liy

 to sell IQJ of tliose hives next winter for you.

I received T tins this morning in good shape. 

 Many thanks for promptness. You people are al- 

 ways so pn)mpt and reliable that it is a pleasure to 

 send to you for goods. J. K. D.wis. 



Dixmont, Pa., May 24. 



I am, as the boys say, " kinder stuck "on your 

 establishment, and some way I would rather order 

 from you than any one else when all things agree. 

 I have three sample hives, sent me free, from other 

 factories, for inspection, and use if they pleased 

 me; but, as I have before told you, I know but very 

 little about the business, .and would rather deal with 

 men who ».se their hivea themselves i)i tlieir ott'd api- 

 ariex, and can recommend tliem from experience.

OUR BOOK on tile DRAINAGE. 



Mr. ir. I. CJiaiiiherlaiii :--I\e read "Tile Drain- 

 age " thoroughly, and it is the most interesting sub- 

 ject I've " tackled." Let me say that you make the 

 tiling as clear and plain as could possibly be done, I 

 believe, and progressive men ouglit to find it won- 

 derfully valuable. I wish we had more men like 

 vourself and Terry around here.
