GLEANINGS IN BEE CULTURE.

" If goods are Mranted ctuicR, send to Potider. '*

LiKe " Coin' to Mill." 



By the Bee Crank. 



My grandfather used to ride to mill 

 with a sack of grain behind his sad- 

 dle, and then sit down and wait his 

 turn at the mill, and, after that, wait 

 some more while his "grist" was 

 being ground into flour or meal. 

 People don't do that way now. The 

 intelligent farmer of to- 

 day brings in his wheat, 

 exchanges it for its worth 

 in flour, and drives 

 home without delay. 



Bee-keepers are cutting 

 out the waiting business 

 now, too. Instead of hav- 

 ing to send your beeswax 

 in to have it made into 

 comb foundation, you now 

 send it to Pouder, and the 

 best of comb foundation, which is 

 made and waiting, is on a through 

 train rolling along to your place 

 the same day. 



I allow you 33c a pound in trade 

 for beeswax, too. Just pack it up, 

 send it in, with your name attached. 



and say what you want in return for 

 it in the way of supplies. The stutT 

 will come to you like this man says:

 Walter S. "Pouder, Indianapolis, Ind. 



Dear Sir:— The goods came with the usual 

 promptness— fact is they came so quick that 

 I thought they must have been sent by 

 " Dyna Mite " instead of " Pouder." Thank- 

 ing you for your more than fair 

 treatment of me in the past, and 

 assuring you that " when I want 

 goods quick"' I will send to Pou- 

 der, I remain Yours truly, 

 Jay Smith. 



I carry ready for immedi- 

 ate shipment Metal-spaced

 supplies that are told about more 

 fully in my new catalog, which is 

 yours for the asking. I sell Root's
