FACTOKV OF AUG. WEISS, HORTONVILLE, WIS. 



A Superior Process and 

 low Prices. 



No one in this country makes comb 

 foundation superior to that turned out 

 by Aug. Weiss, Hortonville, Wisconsin — 

 possibly, his foundation has no equal. 

 In the first place, he is a most excUent 

 mechanic, capable of doing the finest and 

 most perfect work, and considerably giv- 

 en to experimenting. In the next place, 

 he is a practical bee-keeper, and knows, 

 or can find out, by actual experience, ex- 

 actly what is suited to the needs of the 

 bees. When such a man starts in to 

 make foundation, something is likely to 

 hapjxm. In this case a new and superior 

 process of sheeting the wax was develop- 

 ed, something radicallv different from 

 any method previously employed, and 

 the superior quality of his foundation is 

 largely due to this })eculiar method of 

 sheeting. Besides this, the rollers of his 

 foundation mills are larger than those 

 usually employed, thus giving a larger 

 curve to the working surface — the work 

 more nearly approaching that done by a 

 press. 



One more point: Mr. Weiss has not 

 been making foundation many years, 

 and, naturally, wishing to build up a 

 larger business, he is using one of the 

 strongest possible incentives for drawing 

 trade, that of low prices — so low as to 

 bring remonstrances from some of his 

 competitors. 



Although Mr. Weiss makes a specialty 

 of foundation, he has power and wood- 

 working machinery, and makes hives, 

 supers, shipping-cases, etc., and carries a 

 full line of supplies. If in need of sup- 

 plies, you will do well to send for his 

 price list — especially so if you are in need 

 of foundation.— Editor Review.
