Experience has proven to us that, as a rule, freight is handled more promptly and delivered 

 in less time from large shipping-centers, especially in small lots. It would be impossible 

 for us to ship promptly direct to consumer all the goods we now manufacture within the 

 few spring months when most of the demand occurs. In order to handle the large volume 

 of trade requiring Root's Goods, in a prompt and satisfactory mannei-, we send them in car- 

 lots to dealers and agents at many distributing-centers, as per list below. This we do during 

 the fall and winter to a great extent, supplementing their stock with further shipments in 

 the busy spring and summer months when there is the greatest call for goods. 



The dealers, whose names follow, are well known to bee-keepers. They have been, for the 

 most part, long established in the bee-supply trade, and have a knowledge of the business 

 most valuable indeed to the bee-keeping fraternity. Their advice may be had on any ques- 

 tion of supplies, etc., for the asking. 



Nowhere else is it possible to find such well-assorted stocks of goods for bee-keepers as are 

 carried by dealeas in Root's Goods. No matter whether you require a little five- cent article 

 or a carload, these dealers can serve your promptly. Stocks are frequently carried amount- 

 ing to $5000'and upward. 



You will observe that these dealers have excellent shipping facilities— guaranteeing you 

 quick delivery and low freight rates. 



The prices, terms, discounts, etc., are identical with the home office at Medina (with rare 

 exceptions). Full particulars may be had before ordering, if desired, by writing the dealer 

 nearest you. You can, however, use our Medina catalog and terms, and, if any variation, 

 your dealer will advise you, if requested, before shipping. 



Besides the following list, there are many others wlio handle some of Root's Goods. The 

 following is by no means complete, for hundreds of dealers come to us for many of the 

 goods of which we are the exclusive manufacturers. Insist on getting Root's Goods. 



In addition to the following list, who carry large stocks, and furnish at both wholesale and 

 retail, we have in every State a large number of local dealers who handle our goods exclu- 

 sively. As there are over 500 of these dealers, space will not permit giving their names at 

 this time; but information will be given by us, on request, to any bee-keeper regarding the 

 dealer nearest him handling Root's Goods.
