REAL BEE EQUIPMENT 



VOU are one of those careful beekeepers who is already figuring on bee supplies for your 

 next year's use so as to avoid the freight congestion later, and also so as to take advan- 

 tage of any early discounts. 



We are in a position to co-operate with you by making Prompt Shipment and at Prices 

 that will Save You Money. 



More than that, you will want the best that you can get for the money. Real Equipment . 

 such as we can send you, will not only save you money, but will be a pleasure to use. 



Hives and Supplies 



T^ HERE is a big advantage in first-class equipment, something that when put up will 

 stand hauling to your outyards; that will stand the weather when properly painted; 

 in which frames will fit perfectly, and where all hives, supers, etc., are uniform. 



If you want to exchange a frame of brood it is a calamity to find that frames will not 

 interchange on account of faulty workmanship. 



If you want to move a colony a knot-hole in the bottom-board increases your trouble. 



LEWIS HIVES, Supers and Equipment, which we handle, are "Built Like Furniture," 

 with every piece interchangeable. 



Bee Comb Foundation 



\X/E are Comb Foundation Specialists. Dadant's Foundation is perfected in manu- 

 facture to a degree that we feel justified in recommending to you as the best there 

 is. In these days of high honey prices, the foundation which is quickest accepted by the 

 bees means extra honey for the beekeeper. Do not lose sight of this point. 



Specialties 



HpIME SAVERS are money savers. Such items listed in our catalog as Wiring Devices, 

 Electric Wire Imbedders, Swarm Box, Foundation Cutting Box, etc., will save you 

 time — will save you money. 



Bee Books 



'"THIRTY YEARS' experience with several hundred colonies of bees has led us to be- 

 lieve that we can furnish valuable information to the beekeeper. Our books are writ- 

 ten with that in view. Some of the books of our own publication are, 'First Lessons in 

 Beekeeping," "A Thousand Answers to Beekeeping Questions," "Practical Queen-Rear- 

 ing" and "Langstroth on the Honey Bee."
