I liave tried Wired 

 Foundation this year 

 under exactly the same 

 conditions and sur- 

 roundings, as far as I 

 could tell, with foun- 

 dation that was wired 

 horizontally. Every 

 frame of the old-style 

 foundation sagged bad- 

 ly and the Wired Foun- 

 dation made perfect 

 combs. I call it the 

 greatest improvement 

 modern beekeeping has 

 had for many years. —

I believe this foun- 

 dation will prove a 

 labor-saver. It can be 

 inserted in a short 

 time. Wiring frames is 

 sure a tedious job at 

 best. There is no sag 

 in the foundation. I 

 threw them quite hard 

 in extracting and for 

 new combs they stood 

 up fine. — B. A. B.

There has been ab- 

 solutely no sagging or 

 stretching of cells. 

 There is no question in 

 my mind that this 

 method of wiring foun 



TEXAS 



We are glad to say 

 that we have thus far 

 gotten 93 per cent ab- 

 solutely perfect combs. 

 We have seen no evi- 



dation is a great step ^^^^^ ^f vertical sag- 

 in advance of the old 



horizontal method, and 

 these vertically wired 

 combs are the best 

 combs I have in my 

 yard. — A. E. B.

DADANT'S WIRED FOUNDATION may be used in new-style split bottom-bar frames or in 

 the old-.stylo one-piece bottom-bar frames with equal satisfaction. It is also adaptable to any 

 size and style of brood or extracting frame. 



COSTS NO MORE. Since Dadant's Wired Foundation cuts the cost and labor of wiring, 

 its e.\tra inicc of tliroe cents per pound above the catalog i)rices of old-style foundation is thus 

 more than returned to the beekeeper.
