LAST FALL Mr. Smith asked us our advice on 

 . when best to sell lu,s crop of 15,000 lbs. of 

 clover extracted honey. We answered him by 

 advising that he hold "until May, unless he got 



a k I round price for it before. He could 



at tint time have taken something like L2c 

 per pound for it. He held it. At our Michi- 

 gan State Convention last December, he again 

 asked what we thought about the future price 

 of honey. He could then get 17c per pound 

 for it. We advised him tn hold. He sold the 

 entire crop the other day on board the cars 

 for |s'_.c per pound. Mr. Smith's case is 

 only one in hundreds of cases where pro- 

 ducers have done well by following the ad- 

 vice of tin Domestic Beekeeper. We want 

 every beekeeper who has honey to sell to send 

 in his dollar for the Domestic Beekeeper dur- 

 ing 1918. We have the back numbers, o can 

 begin your subscription with the January 

 number, thus making your volume complete. 

 Do it today, and at the end of the year get 

 votir dollar back if you think you have not re- 

 ceived its worth.

"Somewhere in the U. S." 



There are thousands of beekeepers who have not ordered their sup- 

 plies for this season. The U. S. Government asks an increased pro- 

 duction of honey to relieve the sugar shortage. 



The Kretchmer factory has been working steadily all winter filling 

 its own warehouses and rented storage space. A number of our 

 workmen have been with us for years — they know how to make the 

 kind of supplies you want for your bees. 



As a result of careful tests extending over a long period of years, 

 actual tests under all climatic and weather conditions, we make our 

 Hive Bottoms of SOUTHERN CYPRESS, the decay-resisting wood, 

 the Bodies or Brood Chambers and Supers of NORTHERN WHITE 

 PINE (it holds paint, finishes well, and does not check or split), 

 and the Lock Cap Covers of California Redwood. 



If you haven't received a copy of our new green catalog, a regular 

 BEEKEEPERS' DEPARTMENT STORE, send for it at once. 



By all means get your order in without one bit of unnecessary dejay. 

 You dton't want to lose any high-priced honey this year on account 

 of getting your supplies too late. If you'll mail us the order now, 

 we'll do the rest.
