DADANT QUALITY IN 

 MACHINE-MADE FOUNDATION 



Tlie WEED PEOCESS was not invented in a single day. E. B. Weed, 

 wlio invented the present system of machinery on which DADANT 'S FOUN- 

 DATION is manufactured, made many experiments before he was successful. 



Part of his experiments wero made at the Dadant factory. Some of our 

 older workmen can still recall the hot wax squirting everywhere from the 

 jaws of different presses before the modern sheeting machine was finally 

 evolved. 



His process was promptly ai'ce[)t('(l Ijy tlie Dadants as a step forward., 

 not in the making of a foundation superior to the handmade, but of insuring 

 quantities sufficient to supply an ever growing demand. 



Into this process were carrieil all the care, all the pains, all the tests, 

 which had made DADANT 'S/FOUNDATION so well liked.

Nailing machines have largely replaced hammers, and trucks taken the 

 place of horses and wagons, but the same care, the same exactness of having 

 all foundation first of all satisfactory to the Dadants and to the Dadant bees 

 is still exercised and will continue to be.
