GLEANINGS IN BEE CULTURE 



Feb. 15' 



If goods are wanted quick, send to Pouder.' 



Orders for Bee-supplies are now Increasing daily as the season advances, 

 and the indications are favorable for a good season for the bee-keeper as well 

 as for the supply-dealer. The past season has proved that the demand for 

 honey is on the increase, and the bee-business is looking up. I recently ship- 

 ped 3000 pounds of extracted honey to one man (A. A. Roush, Straughn, Ind.). 

 This is only a small portion of what this man has handled during the past 

 winter. He retails it and gets 25 cents per lb. for it. Says he formerly sold at 

 20 cents, but can sell more at the 25-cent price. The secret is that he sells only 

 finest grades, and he insists on his prospective patrons tasting it. I was 

 pleased when he came to me for his honey, for he could have bought other 

 quality elsewhere for less money, but he got the best. If you are new in the 

 business, and in doubt where best to send for your supplies, I wish you would 

 ask some established bee-keeper. If he doesn't advise sending to Pouder I 

 will miss my guess. A free catalog real prompt.

Mrs. Beekeeper 



Your husband is interested in bees. Here 



is something that will interest YOU. 



You know, don't you. that good baking-pow- 

 ders are expensive? But are you aware that 

 most of the cheaper powders contain ALUM— a 

 POISON? If you covild get a low-priced baking- 

 powder as good as the high-priced ones, and 

 yet perfectly wholesome, you'd cut down your 

 living expenses by using it, wouldn't you ? 



At last I HAVE IT! and for four cents in 

 stamps, and the name of your dealer, I will 

 send you a full description and a sample large 

 enough for several bakings; also a nice bee- 

 supply catalog lor your husband. 



(This offer is good whether you are a Mrs." 

 or just want to be one.)
