 UDDlies.

 point in the Country. My prices are at all times

Headquarters for the Danzenbaker Hive. 



Investigate its merits. A 01 page book telling all about it with many valuable 

 jdeHS about producing comb honey will be sent for a two cent stamp I am anx- 

 ious that you do not pU'-e vour order fo- supplies till you have examined ny 

 new catalog. I make QU \LtTY and RRt^IAISI [^I PY of goods the main issue, 

 as mariy of you know, and I have ne -er found it ne essary to cut the price in or- 

 d »r to ci ripete wit i iriferior go )ds My prices a^e, howr-ver, as low at 

 thev can be made and still maintain the present high standard of quality. My 

 business has had a wondt rful growth and I am occupying lari;er quarters with 

 the largest --tock that I have ever carried. I take good care of my customers 

 and that is one reason why my busines'^ grows, but, to be modest about the mat- 

 ter, the greatest reason for thi- growth can be attritnited to the quality of goods 

 that I am handling. Bee-keepers, I believe, wmt the est and would not be 

 satisfied with anyihing else. Get Root Quality from Indianapolis and you 

 will be more than satisfied. :: :: ;; - 



A Sample Letter.

 Waltkr ,S. Pouder, Indianapoli':, Ind. 



Dear 5/>. — Kind order enclosed which you may ship as early as convenient 

 You may wonder why I did not c der more hives; I will explain t^i you that I 

 bought .50 hives and a lot of sections la^t fall from another firm. I did this be- 

 cau-e they offered the goods at the old prices. I do not like the hives, and 

 thought I had better return to the fold. Truly yours, 



C. F. Bender.
