Glass Honey^Packages. 



Anticipating a demand for honey jars and bot- 

 tles we have put in two carloads of stock before 

 the summer shut-down of the glass factories, so 

 that we are prepared to furnish the various jars 

 listed in our catalog. We have also a few odds 

 and ends of stock, such as we formerly listed, 

 which we offer, to close out, as follows. We can- 

 not duplicate these when present stock is sold: 



1-lb. tin-top tumblers. No. 789, 5 bbls. of 200 

 each, at $-1.50 per bbl. 



1 l-"2-lb. tin-top glass paiis. No. 778, 2 bbls. of 100 

 each, at $5.00 per bbl. 



Large lb. tin-top glass pail. No. 777. 1 bbl. of 

 1.50, $.=).00. 



Small lb. tin-top glass pail. No. 77(1, 1 bbl. of 200, 

 $5.50. 



1-lb. Oaken Bucket, tin top, with wire bale, 1 

 bbl. of 150, for $5.00. 



These prices are all a dollar a barrel less than 

 we used to sell these tumblers and pails at. We 

 have also a little loose stock which we will pack 

 and include at the same rate. 



Special Price on Tin Cans. 



We recently secured a special bargain in half- 

 gallon square cans. They are choice bright stock; 

 but as the pattern differed slightly from the regu- 

 lar one they are now making, they closed them 

 out at a special price. We have also an over- 

 stock of quart oblong square cans. While this 

 stock lasts we will make the following prices for 

 shipment from Medina only: 



1-4-gal. oblong square cans with 1 1-2-inch 

 screw. $5.00 per 100; $45.00 per 1000. 



i-2-gal. square cans with 1-inch screws, $6.00 

 per 100. 



1-2-gal. square cans with 1 1-4-inch screws, $6.50 

 per 100. 



l-2.gal. square cans with 1 1-2 inch screws, $7.00 

 per 100. 



In 500 lots, 50c per 100 less. 



W'e have also a good stock of one- and five-gal- 

 lon cans at regular prices. 



Second^Hand Five^Gallon Cans. 



We have to offer a quantity of second-hand five- 

 gallon honey cans in good condition for use again, 

 especially for amber or low grades of honey. We 



offer the best of them at $4.50 for 10 boxes of I 

 cans each; $10.00 for 25 boxes. We have sc 

 which are not so bright, and yet are honey-ti( 

 that we will furnish at 10 cents a box less. ' 

 boxes in which the cans are shipped are <• 

 second-hand, but will be put in good condil 

 when shipped. 



Wide=Mouth Mason Fruit=Jars.

 dollar a gross higher this year than last, 

 carried over quite a large stock, which we

 we have a stock of wide-mouth special Mas< 

 with 3-inch openings. These are especially 

 sirable for canning large fruit whole, or for p;

 quality, and cost $1.65 per gross more than 

 regular pattern. As we do not list them we c
