GLEANINGS IN BEE CULTURE 



Quality Quickly 



There's the reason why we 

 maintain two western branches 

 and warehouses. The conve- 

 nience of lower freight and 

 prompter shipments, coupled 

 with the excellence of our bee 

 supplies, have been realized 

 by western honey -producers. 



It is unnecessary to talk 

 here about the type of supplies 

 carried in stock at these two 

 distributing points. 



The Proof 

 of Quality 



Our exhibit at the Pan- 

 ama-California Expo-
