National 



Co-operative Buying 



of Supplies 



Look over the columns of the Review before you place your order for your 

 1914 bee-keepers' supplies, and see if your old friend, the supply man, is patron- 

 izing you, by patronizing the advertising column of your Review^. If he has 

 forsaken you, by not patronizing the Review with a portion of his advertising, 

 it is time something was done. In case you are left to "paddle your own canoe" 

 in this case, the thing to do is to send your order here to this office, and buy 

 your supplies through the Review If you care to have us buy your supplies 

 for you, the procedure will be as follows : We will suppose you have been in 

 the habit of using Jones' bee supplies and still want their make; send us just the 

 same money with your order that you have been accustomed to; then we will 

 fill your order direct from the manufacturer you request. Remember, friends, 

 that we issue no supply list, and have our own advertising medium, the Review, 

 so you can expect us to do this work for you on a very close co-operative basis. 

 Our motto : Buy your supplies for less money during this season than last. You 

 now have an opportunity never offered you before to buy your supplies direct, 

 on the co-operative plan made possible l)y your owning the Review. 



The opportunity is now open to you, brother, will you take advantage of 

 this splendid chance to better yourself financially? Do not forget your neighbor. 

 He may be paying larger l)ills for his supplies than is necessary. Get him to 

 club with you and by so doing both of you save by buying in larger quantities, 

 also on freight charges. Remember, no order too small, and no order too large. 

 When you approach your neighbor, do not forget your best friend, the National 

 and the Review, tell him he will need them both in his business in the future. 

 for we expect to make them both so valuable to the producer that they cannot 

 afford to b'' without them. It is up to you. Mr. Producer, we are here to do 

 our part. Kindly address all your 1914 orders for bee-keepers' supplies to 



The National 

 Bee-Keepers^ Association
