Root Queen-rearing Outfit No, 2. 



In this outfit are embraced the best points of the 

 best systems in use. It will give satisfaction to the 

 amateur as well as the expert. The cell-cups are 

 made of wood, wax-coated. No melted wax is used in 

 their manipulation, as they are attached to the cell- 

 stick by means of a small nail-point. 



The nursery cage combines the features of nursery 

 and introducing cages. By their use a queen can be 

 released on the candy plan or caged in the hive as 

 desired. 



In connection with the outfit goes a booklet on 

 queen-rearing— one which ought to put the veriest 

 amateur on the high road to success. 



The outfit consists, first, of a book of 36 pages; 24 

 queen-nursery cages; one queen-nursery frame: 100 

 wooden queen-cell cups; 200 artificial compressed cell- 

 cups; three cell-bars; 10 Miller introducing-cages; one 

 set of grafting-tools, all complete for $4.50. Postage 

 50 cents.

TO THE 



BEE-KEEPERS 



OF CANADA. 



WE are pleased to say that we are able to 

 offer, in Canada, goods manufactured by 

 The A. I. Root Co. While we do not offer 

 every thing listed in their catalog, we have se- 

 lected such articles as we believe will best meet 

 the wants of the Canadian bee-keepers. 



The heavy duty and freight charges we have 

 to pay make it impossible for us to sell in Can- 

 ada at Root's prices. We have, however, made 

 prices as low as possible, and in no case do we 

 charge nearly as much extra as the amount of 

 freight and duty we ourselves have to pay on 

 the goods. 



We would ask you, when comparing our prices 

 with those of other dealers, to take into consid- 

 eration the QUALITY. If you do so we feel 

 satisfied that you will place your order with us. 

 The splendid quality of the material sent out 

 by The A. I. Root Co. has given " Root's Goods" 

 a world-wide reputation. Remember, "The best 

 is cheapest."
