THINGS THAT ARE NECESSARY FOR YOUR APIARY 



1. There must be a good location for the apiary. 



2. Queens must be healthy and vigorous to put life into the hives. (Our queens are the best to be had and 

 at reasonable prices.) 



31 Your bees cannot do the work they should if you do not give them the best with which to work. If they 

 have ample storage space, if they can work all the time without slack motion, they will be more con- 

 tented and swarmless. To accomplish this, you must give them ample storage space, that is, the RIGHT 

 HIVES AND SUPPLIES, "falcon" 



Beekeepers should be placing their orders early for their early needs. He who waits is apt to suffer. These 

 late beekeepers who want their goods in such a hurry at the last minute will lose some of the honey 

 crop by not furnishing their bees with ample storing space. Railroad embargoes and rush business 

 make deliveries slow. 



Our famous "falcon" supplies will please you. Do not wait. Order now and strike while the iron is hot. 

 "falcon'' means the best, the standard of perfection. Red Catalog and Simplified Beekeeping upon 

 request. Dealers everywhere.

READ — ORDER EARLY 



Owing to the congestion of freight and embargoes, we caution all beekeepers to get their 

 order in early, otherwise you w!ll suffer a great loss when you actually need goods, and you per- 

 haps will be unable to get them for the above reasons. We have a large stock on hand, and can 

 fill orders promptly, provided the railroads will accept freight.
