TO THE 



BEE-KEEPERS 



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. RootCo. has given " Root's Goods" 

 a world-wide reputation. Remember, " The best 

 is cheapest."
