 groiKl many producers of nice comb honey are in the 

 habit of stamping each section with a stamp similar 

 to this:

FKOM THE APIAKV OF 



u^. X. leooT, 



If the honey is real nice, the persons wlio oat it 

 will ask their dealer for more from the same apiary, 

 and you thus not only work up but keep a demand 

 for your lionoy. A rubber stamp is neater for this 

 purpose than a label, and is more quickly applied. 



In making stamps we have a very large variety of 

 job type, u.sed in the advertising columns of 

 Gi^EANiNGS. and in job and label printing, to mold 

 from, and are thus able to give you a more neat and 

 tasty job in more modern type than most of the 

 small dealers with only a few fonts of type to work 

 from. We can mold a press full of stamps about as 

 cheaply as a single one; we are thereby able to 

 make better prices on club orders; and if any of our 

 readers wish to act as agents we should be pleased 

 to hear from them. 



In onki itnj ridiher stamps, he sure to wi'iie very 

 pkiiuli) jiii<t trh<it you want the stamp to print; and 

 if possible, in tho shape you want it.
