GLEANINGS IN BEE CULTURE 

 I "If goods are wanted quick, send to Pouder.' 



Mar. 15 



Dear Sib : Indianapolis, March 15, 1911. 



The most interesting question to be considered just now is Bee-Supplies, 

 especially if you have not yet ordered, for the time Is near at hand when the 

 rnatter niust have your attention. If you are a large consumer of supplies, 

 and if you are not now getting your goods here, I believe I can make it inter- 

 esting tor you if you will submit a list of goods wanted and allow me to quote 

 an estimate. If you are a beginner I wish you would feel at ease about writ- 

 ing me for getting beginners started right is one of my hobbies. I wish you 

 could see the dray-loads that I am shipping daily— nice clean goods, direct 

 from the factory. No old goods to be worked off here, because of my system 

 of rotating— that is, when we put away a carload of goods we do not cover up 

 our present stock, and by that means our goods are always nice and fresh 

 from the factory. . . . Here is a foot-note that came with an order to-day: 



Walter S. Fouder. Lynn, Indiana. 



Dear Sir.— I turn all the orders I can to you from this place. 

 \ neighbor sent elsewhere for his goods last year, and they came 

 in very bad shape. I told him he had better place his order with 

 the Root people at Indianapolis and he would get good goods, and 

 they would come tn good shape. Frank Ozbun.
