What They Say about the Pouder Honey=jars. 



B.AVONNK, X. J., July 31, 1897, 

 Walter S. Pouder, Indianapolis, Ind. 



Dear Sir: — In reference to the way in which you 

 pack your jars, would say that we kept a .strict count 

 on the last shipment, making a memorandum of the 

 number of broken ones in each case when opened. 

 We found upon finishing the 1200 jars that we had 14 

 one-pound and 2 half-pound broken, or an average of 

 one and one-third jars to the case. This is a big im- 

 provement when we look back to the time when we 

 received them packed in .straw from other hou.ses, 

 with all the way from 4 to 10 in a case broken. Wish- 

 ing you and your business success, we remain 



Yours truly. Holding Bros.

 Don't Neglect Your Bees. 



Bee-keeping may be made uniformly suc- 

 cessful by judiciotis feeding. It is just as im- 

 portant with bees as with other stock. 



Success in feeditig depends 

 very much on the feeder used. 

 When you have tried the
