Supplies Cheap. 



Mr. L. B. Bell, formerly of Brecksville, Ohio, 

 has acceoted a permanent position in Arizona, 

 and wishes to dispose of his apiarian fixtures. 

 He wrote to me about it, and I told him if he 

 would have them shipped to me I would sell 

 them for him on commission. Here is a list of 

 the articles and the price at which they are 

 offered,

 ping boards .•• 6-00

All of the above are in my possession and can 

 be shipped promi'tly. The hives and cases are 

 well made and nicely painted, and having been 

 in use only two or three seasons are practic.dly 

 as good as new. The combs are in wired frames 

 and are all straight and nice. Anyone wishing 

 Ito buy anything out of this ot can learn fuller 

 particulars upon inipiiry.
