Plant-Blood* 
Plant-Blood was invented to fill the need for a fertilizer for potted plants that would be abso¬ 
lutely safe and sure. Endless experiments and thorough search have at last produced in Plant- 
Blood just what florists have always demanded and hitherto failed to obtain. This vital’izer acts 
directly on the plant saps, instilling new life, imparting ricli coloring to leaves and blossoms, and 
wonderfully quickening the growth of the plant. Its fertilizing effect is enormously superior to any 
other plant food on the market. Plant-Blood is put up in distinctively attractive tubular cartons. 
Price, 15 cts.

gestive name is the dovetailing. Unlike the old-fashioned 
lap, miter, or halving plan, it will not gap or pull loose, 
but will successfully resist all climates. This Ilive is 
fitted with Danzentaker bottom board and cover. As 
we ship, it is fitted complete with starters in Brood 
Chamber and Section Boxes. We have in stock but 
one size, the eight frame. All Hives set up ready for 
use. Net price, each, $3.00. 
Section Boxes, each, 1 cent; per 100, 75 cents; per 250, $1.50; per 500, 
32.50. Our No. 1 Sections are made of the choicest white basswood lumber, 
and are all perfect in finish, and free from defects. They are not all snow 
white, but vary from that to a light cream color. Choice honey shows off 
to best advantage in a section not too white.
