falcon'* Beekeepers' Supplies 



For the last forty years during our maiiufacture of "FALCON" supplies^ it 

 has been our endeavor to place upon the market the very best possilile lino of supplies, 

 and we pride ourselves in having accomplished this. "FALCON" sup])lies have not 

 only been recognized as the best in this' country, but also a leader in other count'iies. 

 Nothing expresses the superiority of the "FALCON" ware Ijetter than the many kind 

 and pleasing words we receive from our satisfied customers, and the ever-increasing 

 demand for "FALCON" supplies. 



The season is drawing nearer and beekeepers should endeavor to order early. By 

 making up your wants now you will be better fitted to go into the season with a view 

 of not only obtaining a bigger crop but to facilitate matters Ihruout the season. If 

 you will make up a list of requirements for quotation we shall be glad to quote.

seem reasonabler and more timely to per- 

 form. So ventilation on that one side of 

 ray barn remained unchoked right up to last 

 night and yet. I knew the Mrs. would want 

 to converse along these lines at the supper- 

 table last evening, so I stayed right over 

 here to the office till almost plumb dark, 

 wishing I knew of a world somewhere made 

 up niostl}' of good fishin' creeks and where 

 potatoes grow right in the bins in the cellar 

 where they orter grow and already dug, also 

 where barn siding grows natterel on barns 

 and stays growed on. Then I sneaked home. 

 It was a ornery feeling I had, but I braced 

 up at the front door, rushed in as if I had 

 done "most all the business transacted on 

 the western hemisphere that day, didn 't take 

 time to even look at my wife standing on 

 the far side of the dining-room table all set 

 for a heart-to-heart discussion of potatoes 

 and barn siding. 1 just haughtily swept one 

 doughnut and a pickled beet off the table 

 and kept careerin ' forward and onward 

 and business-ward for the cellar stairway 

 where I expected my lantern to meet me. It 

 M^as there all right but the globe was gone. 

 I recollected then that on another good 

 fishin' day I had put off getting a new one 

 till I got around to put on the Ijarn siding. 

 But I didn't falter or loiter around the house 

 because of no lantern globe. No, siree. I 

 set sail for the barn via downstairs and the 

 outside cellar door. I felt that my dear 

 wife was waiting somewhere along the usual- 

 traveled kitchen route. So I didn't entour- 

 age that way. 1 went the other way. I pre- 

 ferred it very much. It was darker in the 

 cellar than a black cat's whole body, but I 

 didn 't mind it under the circumstances. I 

 was hankerin' for solitude just then so far 

 as anybody I had ever married was con- 

 cerned. But I did just then get to wishin ' 

 for the company and comfortin ' assistance
