What's in a Name ? 



That depends on whose name it is. It depends on what the name represents. 

 It depends on the quality of the goods the name represents. It is not the name that 

 makes DADANT'S FOUNDATION so well known and well liked, but it is the 



Quality of the Goods 



That's what backs up the name, and the quality is backed by 30 years of successful 

 experience in foundation making. 



EVERY INCH of DADANT'S FOUNDATION is equal to the best inch we can make. Do not fail 

 to insist on Dadant's make when you order your foundation. Accept no substitute even though the 

 dealer claims that his foundation is made by the same process. 



It is the PURIFYING PROCESS that counts. Our method of purifying has been unequaled for 

 years. This method leaves every essential in the purejbeeswax, and our Foundation does not have the 

 odor of wax cleansed with acids. 



That is why several large honey-producers who have tested our foundation side by side with other 

 makes, have found ours to be the best, and the best liked by the bees. 



BEESWAX 



Do not sell your beeswax until you get our quotations. We have received up to April 1st, over 80.000 pounds 

 of beeswax for our 1909 trade. We will need over 80,000 pounds more before January 1, 1910. Drop us a card and 

 get our prices.

 Bee-Supplies to order now (shipments may be delayed until you want the 

 goods) before the contemplated advance in prices all along the line. Lumber 

 is dearer and labor has never been so high, but we agree to protect our pa- 

 trons at present prices upon receipt of their orders at this time. 



It will cost you only one cent for a postal card to get our delivered prices 

 on Dovetailed Hives. Sections, Section-holders, Separators, Brood-frames, 

 Foundation, Smokers, Extractors, Shipping-cases, etc. It may mean a sav- 

 ing to you of many dollars. It is the natural advantage we have over others 

 that enables us to make you the Best Price. There are no better goods than 

 ours, and we GUARANTEE SATISFACTION or REFUND your MONEY. 



Being manufacturers we buy lumber to advantage, have lowest freight- 

 rates, and sell on manufacturer's' profit basis. Let us quote you prices.
