DRAWN FOUNDATION. 



Finally we have our dies completed 5b', and in op- 

 eration, making drawn foundation. We find that 

 our hydraulic machinery for operating the dies is 

 inadequate to the pressure for using the dies full 

 sl2e, and we are making pieces 4x4, just right to fill 

 a section; atd until we get more powerful machin- 

 ery we are not prepared to furnish it larger nor in 

 very large quantities. • ut such as we can furnish 

 will be much sunerif'r to sampies from the former 

 dies— lighter and more delicate. It is already too 

 late to test it in the production of early honey; but 

 the tests on a late honey crop, which generally 

 comes in more f-lowly. will i)e more se\ere. 



We offer the drawn foundation in V^-lb. packages 

 at 7.T CIS. with other goods, or 90 cts. prepaid: three 

 pieces. 4x4. to fill a section, for 10 cts.: by mail, 12 

 cts.; 24 pieces. .50 cts.: by mail 60 cts.; 10 pieces. 25 

 ctB.; by mail. .30 cts. If you have pre.ludices or pre- 

 conceived notions in regard to this drawn founda- 

 tion, send for a s imple frorn the last dies and see it 

 and test it for yourself, and then you will be able to 

 speak intelligently in regard to it. It is not too late 

 to test it this season in very many localities.
