To Sell Your Honey Well 



It Must Look Well 



THIS means, whether you sell your honey locally or ship it, and whether it is comb or 

 extracted, that it must be put into good-looking packages, — tin, glass or carton. Then, 

 if you ship it, the shipping case must be strong enough to prevent any possible damage 

 to the package in transit. The dressing-up of your honey package with a handsome label 

 is another part of the honey-selling business. If you are going to do roadside selling, as 

 thousands of beekeepers do, you will want an attractive "Honey for Sale" sign. You may, 

 too, want some sample mailing blocks in which to send samples of your honey to distant 

 customers, or you may need a pair of scales for weighing sections, or a stamping outfit to 

 mark net weight on your sections. 



WE are ready to serve you in any and all of these ways with the very highest quality 

 of goods, very promptly and at some considerably reduced prices. Just run through 

 the list of honey packages, cans, pails, tumblers, jars, cartons, shipping cases, etc., 

 etc., listed below. Note the lower prices quoted on many of these articles — then order today 

 while the stocks at our home office and at our branches are full and in finest condition.
