CARTONS FOR COMB HONEY. 



The best salesman for the beekeeper who makes a busi- 

 ness of producing comb honey, is an attractive and sanitary 

 carton. Comb honey put up in cartons is free from dust and 

 flies. Being printed in two colors with this special engraved 

 design on the front, it makes a very handsome package. The 

 panels all contain appropriate printed matter in regard to the 

 food value of honey, and how comb honey is produced. Direc- 

 tions are given for keeping in a warm, dry place. 



The Danz. or slip carton listed below is open on the sides 

 instead of top and bottom. It is advisable to use a rubber
