A Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year to 

 Bee-keepers Everywhere. 



TN HIS DEPARTMENT " The Busy 

 -'- Bee," in December Farm Journal, 

 D. Everett Lyon, bee-keeper and author, 

 has to say of the advantages of early 

 buying of bee-supplies: 



I have made it a practice to purchase my supplies 

 during the winter for the following season, for two rea- 

 sons: First, there is a discount given by the supply 

 houses, who are anxious to get their customers supplied 

 now rather than when they are naturally rushed during the 

 spring; and, second, because during the leisure time of 

 winter I can put the hives and sections together. 



There's a Point for You. 



Not only is it more practical to buy bee- 

 suppHes during the winter, but there's 

 quite a little profit to be had for your 

 foresight. 



Buy ROOT'S BEE SUPPLIES here in December and 

 you save 4 per cent. For January the early-order cash 

 discount is 3 per cent. These discounts apply on practic- 

 ally every thing listed in the big Weber Line — the ex- 

 ceptions were noted in our November advertisement in 

 this journal. 



You save freight by ordering from Cincinnati — and you 

 save the interest on one dollar for a whole year by in- 

 vesting in bee-supplies in December. Just bear these 

 facts in mind.
