is made bee-tight all around, allowing 

 examination or re-filling without dis- 

 turbing the bees at all. Moreover, it is 

 also a time, space, labor, and money 

 saver, and, with very little modifica- 

 tion, can be adapted for use on all 

 kinds of 10-frame, or even 8-frame 

 supers. A half inch cleat nailed on 

 the inside ends of any super will sup- 

 port it, and the other parts of the feeder 

 will fit the super without additional 

 fitting or alteration, provided only 

 that the depth is made to correspond 

 with the depth of the super. The reg- 

 ular hive-cover goes over all, and is 

 both a neat and a necessary protection 

 for the'feed and the feeder. 



The details for its construction, and 

 the materials required, are as follows : 



Two end-pieces. 'jx5xl3 inches; 2 

 side-pieces, '2x4'2xl7; 2 inner side- 

 pieces, '4x4;sxl6; 2 top side-pieces, 

 '4x1 '4x17; 2 bottom pieces, '2x6'2Xl7, 

 tongued and grooved together ; and 4 

 Danzenbaker rivets. 



Before nailing, take the end-pieces, 

 and at the top edge on each side, cut 

 out a rabbet '^x'2 inch, to receive the 

 " top side-pieces ;" also drive the rivets 

 2 inches from the sides, and 3 = s inches 

 from the bottom of each end-piece, let- 

 ting the head into the wood (like a 

 screw-head) far enough so that the 

 outer end of the rivet will project at 

 least '4 of an inch to rest on the end 

 cleat of the super. Nail the ends, 

 sides and bottoms together ; you now 

 have a box 14x17, outside measure, S'2 

 deep at the ends, and 5 deep at the 

 sides. This box must be thoroughly 

 paraffined on the inside, so as to make 

 it perfectly water-tight. The "2 inner- 

 side and top-side pieces " are now 

 nailed together, and fastened into the 

 rabbets prepared to receive them, 

 which will then allow 's of an inch at 

 the bottom of the inner side-pieces for 

 the feed to pass from the body of the 

 feeder into the side chambers for the 

 bees to reach it. Hang this bos into 

 the Danzenbaker super, and fill it with

Wantecl=Thousands 

 of New Subscribers 



A STANDARD-BRED 



QUEEI-BEE FREE 



To Our Regiilar Paid=in=Advance 

 Subscribers. 



We have arranged with several of the best queen-breeders to supply 

 us with The Very Best Untested Italian Queens that they can possibly 

 rear — well worth fl.OO each. We want every one of our present regular 

 subscribers to have at least one of these Queens. And we propose to 

 make it easy for you to get one or more of them. 



In the first place, you must be a regular subscriber to the American 

 Bee Journal, and your own subscription must be paid in advance. If it 

 is not already paid up, you can send in the neces.sary amount to make 

 it so when you order one of these fine Queens. 



A ^neeu Free for Sending One Blew Subscriber 



Send us 51.00 and the name and address of one NEW reader for the 

 American Ijee Journal, and we will mail you one of the Queens free as 

 a premium. 



Now, go out among your bee-keeping neighbors and friends and 

 invite them to subscribe for the old American Bee Journal. If you want 

 some to show as samples, we will mail you, for the asking, as many 

 copies of the American Bee Journal as you can use. 



Should there be no other bee-keepers near you, and you desire one 

 of these fine Queens any way, send us $1.50 and we will credit your sub- 

 scription for one year and also mail you a Queen. Of course, it is un- 

 derstood that the amount sent will pay your subscription at least one 

 year in advance of the present time. So, if your subscription is in ar- 

 rears, be sure to send enough more than the SI. 50 to pay all that is 

 past due. 



As the supply of these splendid Queens is limited, we prefer to use 

 all of them as premiums for getting new subscribers. But if any one 

 wishes to purchase them aside from the Bee Journal subscription, the 

 prices are as follows: One Queen, 75c.; 3 Queens, S2.10 ; 6 Queens 

 for $4.00. 



We expect o be able to fill orders by return mail, or almost as 

 promptly as that, so there will be no great delay at any rate 



Now for the new subscribers that you will send us — aad then 

 the Queens that we will send youl
