Farm Wagon Economy. 



The economy of this proposition is not all all found 

 in the very reasonable price of the wagon itself, but 

 in the great amount of labor it will save, and its great 

 durability. The Electric Wheel Co., who make this 

 Electric Handy Wagon and the now famous Electric 

 Wheels, have solved the problem of a successful and 

 durable low down wagon at a reasonable price. 



Electric 



This wagon is composed of the best material 



throughout — white hickory axles, steel wheels, .steel 



hounds, etc. Guaranteed to carry -JOOO 



lbs. These Electric Steel Wheels are 



made to fit any wagon, and make 



practically a new wagon out of the 



\old one. They can be had in any 



height desired, and any width of 



tire up to 8 inches. With an extra 



set of these wheels a farmer can 



' interchatige them with his regular 



wheels and have a high or low down 



wagon at will. Write for catalog of 



the full "Electric I,ine " to Electric 



Wheel Co., Box 95, Quincy, 111.

HONEY QUEENS. 



/ hat'e //trill, as dMy letters testify. Recent conclu- 

 sions force the belief that the leather-colored strain 

 of three-banders excel in honey-gathering. If you 

 want Goldens my strain takes the lead of all others, 

 and I have tried them all ; 250 colonies for honey, and 

 200 strong nuclei that will winter over. I am prepared 

 to send you a queen any day you maj' order. Tested 

 or untested queens. SI. 00. I^eather breeders, ?2.r)0. 

 Owing to increased demand straight 5-band breeders 

 are $5.00 each.
