BEE SUPPLIES 



FOR NEXT SEASON'S USE 



Place your order now and get the large early order discount, besides 

 avoiding the spring congestion and delays which always come. 

 1919 Season will be the largest in history, owing to high prices re- 

 ceived for honey, and all factories will be taxed to limit. Already our 

 December orders are as heavy as last June. Can we count on your 

 order? A list of goods wanted will bring back prices at once. 



Better send your name for our new catalogue when i. is out. 

 Honey and Beeswax always wanted. Cash or in trade.

Remarkable Discovery That Cuts 



Down the Cost of Painting 



Seventy-Five Per Cent 



A Free Trial Package is Mailed to 

 Everyone Who Writes 



A. L. Rice, a prominent manufacturer of 

 Adams, N. Y-, has discovered a process of mak- 

 ing a new kind of paint without the use of oil. 

 He calls it Powderpaint. It comes in the form 

 of a dry powder and all that is required is cold 

 water to make a paint weather proof, fire 

 proof, sanitary and durable for outside or in- 

 side painting. It is the cement principle ap- 

 plied to paint. It adheres to any surface, 

 wood, stone or brick, spreads and looks like oil 

 paint, and costs about one-fourth as much. 



Write to Mr. A. L. Rice, Manufacturer, 83 

 North Street, Adams, N. Y.. and he will send 

 you a free trial package, also color card and 

 full information showing you how you can save 

 a good many dollars. Write today.
