Buy Bee-Supplies in November! 



Pay Gash and Save 5 per cent 



WE are again prepared to offer a liberal early-order cash discount 

 to those who are forehanded in anticipating their next sea- 

 son's requirements. For orders received during November, accom- 

 panied by payment, for goods for next season's use, we allow a dis- 

 count of 5 per cent; during December, 4 per cent. As the 

 season advances, the discount is reduced one per cent each month. 



You can buy now at a lower price 

 than you will be required to pay 

 during the next year. ..... 



This discount applies to goods listed in our general catalog except as follows: 

 Paint, Porter bee-escapes, Bingham smokers, bees, queens, printed matter, car- 

 tons, honey-packages, tin and glass, bushel boxes, hotbed sash, honey-labels, 

 seeds, and such seasonable goods. Where a large general order includes some of 

 the excepted articles, not exceeding ten to twenty per cent of the entire order, the 

 discount may be applied to the whole order. 



Remember, we are offering you 

 goods of the Standard Root Quality. 



We are the largest manufacturers of bee-supplies in the world — manufacturing 

 every thing from section-boxes and bottom-boards to honey-extractors, comb 

 foundation and comb-foundation machines. More than 100 articles used by suc- 

 cessful bee-keepers are listed in our annual catalog, which may be had free for the 

 asking. Get acquainted with ROOT supplies — test our service.
